Nation Pays Tribute To 'Old Soldier
-

's
The following is an excerpt from General Douglas
historic address before the cadets of the United
States Military Academy on May 12, 19G2, in acceptance of
the Sylvanus Thayer Award:

". . . the soldier above all other people prays for peace, for he
must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war. But
always in our ears ring the ominous words of Plato, that wisest of all
philosophers; 'Only the dead have seen the end of war.'
"The shadows are lengthening for me. The twilight is here. My
days of old have vanished tone and tint. They have gone glimmering through the dreams of things that were. Their memory is one of
wondrous beauty, watered by tears and coaxed and caressed by the
miles of yesterday. I listen vainly, but with thirsty ear, for the
witching melody of faint bugles blowing reveille, of far drums beating the long roll.
"In my dreams I hear again the crash of guns, the rattle of
musketry, the strange, mournful mutter of the battlefield. But In
the evening of my memory always I come back to West Point. Always
Duty, honor, country.

NEW YORK (AP)
The
d
roar of distant
guns paid homage yesterday
to the memory of General of
the Army Douglas MacAr-thu- r,
echoing across two main
scenes of his long life, the
U.S. Military Academy and
New York City, his last home.

At both places,
salutes
were fired promptly at noon.
Across the nation, on the high
seas, and at all American installations
around
the world,

President Johnson, until after
the funeral services for
in Norfolk, Va., next
Saturday.
During the week of mourning,
his body will luy iu repose in

New York, the Capitol Rotunda
in Washington, and in the
Memorial Rotunda
in
Norfolk.
He himself chose Norfolk as
his last resting place because his
mother, the former Mary Pick-ne- y
Hardy, was born, reared and
married there.
MacArthur's body was brought
to New York from Washington
by motorcade Sunday night. He
died in Walter Reed Hospital at
the age of 84.
Tomorrow, with 2,000 cadets
lining the t! mile route, the
general's body will be taken from
the armory to Pennsylvania Railway Station for the rUrt of the
trip to Washington.
MacArthur's personal flag and
the flag of the Seventh Regiment of the "Rainbow Division"
will be carried in the procession.
Behind an army caisson will

come a riderless horse.
Blanchard said Pfc. James P.
Stimpson, of Munford, Tenn., will
lead the horse. JStimpson performed the same duty in the
funeral cortege for the late President Kennedy.
Kennedy's body was the last
to lie in state In the Capitol
Rotunda, to which MacArthur's
remains will be taken Wednesday.
MacArthur's cortege will pass
near a point where a bronza

Alarmed At Lack Of Support
For Humanities, Oswald Says
University President John
W. Oswald said that he is
alarmed at the lack of financial support being given to
the humanities in proportion
to that of the sciences.
"As a scientist," he said, "I
certainly recognize the contributions of science to liberal education as well as the practical application of Its results to the
national welfare.
"But I also recognize the value
of the humanities as liberating
forces; I recognize the part the
humanities play In the Ideological struggle of our day.
"It Is not difficult to see,
howevrr, that the current imbalance may eventually lead to a
of the humanities,
both In the scholarly world and
Dr. Osia the market-place,- "
wald, a plant pathologist, told
' delegate
to the 17th annual
meeting of the Southern Humanities Conference last Friday.
"Large research grants and
higher salaries are already attracting a disproportionate number of our good minds Into the
sciences," he continued.

Ten Compete
Tonight In
Crum Contest
Ten University students will
compete in the Crum Extemporaneous Speaking Contest which is set for 7:30 p.m.
today in the Lab Theater of
the Fine Arts liuilding.
The contest was established by

in 1902 with a gift from George
W. Crum of Louisville. It is
named In memory of Floyd Crum,
who died in 1888 while a student
at the University and a member
of the Patterson Literary Society.

Lexington attorney; and Elmer
Purdom. Principal of Henry Clay
Hiuh School.
The public Is invited to attend
the contest.

the Patterson

The president said he agrees
with Howard Mumford Jones,
who wrote In his book, "One
Great Society," that "the disparity seems to be vastly disproportionate to enduring values and
national needs It is not good for
the humanities, for the social
sciences, for science, or for the
nation."
Dr. Oswald said he also agrees
with a suggestion made by Dr.
Thomas B. Etroup, UK professor
of English and chairman of the
conference, that the group, rep19
learned societies,
resenting
should draft and publish a stateof Its belief about the
ment
place of humanities in Southern
education.
"Such a statement," he said,
"would be of value to faculties
and administrators as we reshape
our curricula to meet the needs
of our time and especially as we
attempt to meet the needs of the
emerging South not merely an
economically secure South, but a
South capable of making its

proper contributions
and scholarship In the arts, litand religion."
erature, philosophy,
Also speaking at the conference was Dr. Joseph A. Bryant
of the University of North Carolina, who told the delegates
that literature, like the other
arts, preserves an Image of man
at his most God-likLose sight of that image. Dr.
Bryant said, "and euthanasia,
of the unfit, and
sterilization

er practices.
"If man has been created In
the image of his creator, then
the distincltve thing about man
he said, adis his creativity,"
ding that a good literature prostudents to see
fessor requires his
themselves as "participants In
the poetic process."
"You and I," he told his audience, "should be able to grasp
an even richer collection of Insights from the works of Shakehimspeare than Shakespeare
self was able to.
"If we cannot, the works of
Shakespeare are for us and for
our successors dead, and the
world that stretches ahead of us
new
is indeed the frightening
world that some of our better
satirists have warned us of."
Dr. J. W. Patterson, UK associate professor of speech, told
the group that the art of rhetoric can be saved as a humane
study.
He said that teachers of rhetoric, or speech, which he de- -

scribed as "a study of the whole
process of relating our thoughts
to others in order to Influence
their behavior in some way,"
must do two things to avoid compromise.
"First, we must hold to the
concept of the true orator being a good man skilled in speaking, for the rhetorician is forever
calling on us to make choices
Involving values. He must, therefore, understand the relationship
of his art to ethics and politics.
"Secondly, we must not leave
to the commercial-typ- e
speech
classes and the toastmasters
clubs the Job of teaching people
how to persuade others to adopt
right attitudes and act in response to them.
"The awful result will continue to be a nation ef citizens
who cannot speak effectively, and
even worse, a nation of citizens
who do not speak ethically," he
concluded.

have avowed for 30 years to remove
the University Board of Trustees from
political influence. And for 30 years
nothing has been done.
Gov. Edward T. Breathitt approved in his campaign the plea of
former President Frank G. Dickey
that the school "be removed from the
realm of petty politics."
Dr. Dickey objected to four state
provisions concerning the board (and
consequently the University) and the
question of Frankfort's potential, if
not always practiced, political control of UK.
By state law, the governor is chairman of the Board of Trustees. As
such, he can fill all unusual vacancies
and choose alumni representatives
from a list submitted by the alumni.

are
Law also requires the board to
lia-an unusual number of trustees
from farming areas and geographical
districts. Dr. Dickey felt that this
provision was a ghost of the University's 19th century ancestor, the Agricultural and Mechanical College.
The fourth objectionable provision
would require an amendment to the
constitution, Article 93, which decrees
that no state officer may be selected
or appointed for a term of more than

four years. Because board members
are state officers, a governor can appoint a majority of the trustees, thus
influencing board actions even after
his term is expired and neither he nor
his officials have voting status on the
board.
Dr. Dickey preferred for the governor to remain as chairman with no
vote. He wanted the state laws
changed to remove administration officials from the board and a constitutional amendment so that trustees'
terms could be staggered and lengthened to seven years. This would make
it impossible for a governor to appoint a majority of the board members, thereby releasing the University
from the sphere of direct politics.
In addition, the former president
called for the repeal of the laws providing for board members from agricultural areas and geographical districts, allowing the governor to select
the best qualified men to serve, regardless of their residences or their
professions.
In light of Gov. Breathitt's proclaimed agreement with Dr. Dickey's
recommendations, a little more than
12 months ago, the Kernel feels that
lie should make good his promises and
strive to free the University from
Frankfort's political reins.
UK, as a
institution,
has obligations to the entire state,
and not merely to a governor and his
administration.

Denial Of Basic Rights
In the light of two recent events
find ourselves forced to speak up
for civil rights. Pressure groups are
obviously trying to deny to fellow
Americans the basic rights of free
speech and peaceful assembly.
In one case, violence erupted when

Letters To Editor
In Error
To The Editor:
Although Mr. Rosenthal is generally a good reporter, he did not, I
think, get my words down correctly
when he quoted me as having remarked of Mr. Ciardi: "Ciardi is very
elegant, however, he speaks with intelligence about subjects that he
knows nothing." Mr. Ciardi does know
something about college life; he even
knows something about poetry and
the humanities in general.
What I tried to make clear in my
statement to Mr. Rosenthal was my
feeling that Mr. Ciardi would only
cliches
palm off smoothly-fashione- d
when he spoke on campus.
Actually, I suppose I should have
suggested to Mr. Rosenthal that students, particularly members of the
Student Congress, would be wise to
attend closely to Mr. Ciardi's polished
drivel. For, as an accomplished confidence man, Mr. Ciardi is very, very
good. And, who knows, perhaps he is
to be commended for his skill in soothing and bemusing his victims.

a group blinded by prejudice picketed outside an auditorium in which
a speaker was advocating views repulsive to the group. In another case,
a group of persons was trying to restrict the right of a group to assemble.
These liberty-denyin- g
groups mentioned are not the Ku KIux Klan, the
Citizens' Council or another conservative Southern group they are "civil
rights" groups at Northern universities.
Civil rights supporters at the University of Minnesota protested the
appearance of Alabama Gov. Wallace
on the campus, and one of them attacked a
picket, according to the college paper. It seems to
us that if the attacker was really interested in civil rights, he would have
avoided attending the speech and not
interfered with those who agree with
Wallace.
At the University of Kansas a
group called the Civil Rights Coordinating Committee picketed a fraternity
house to protest a discriminatory
clause in the national fraternity's constitution. The committee's view on
civil rights must not include the right
to assemble with those you want to
and to not assemble with those you
might not want to.
In principle, we have no complaint about civil rights, but we become fearful when fanatical support'
ers try to destroy what they say they
are trying to establish. Extension of
civil rights to one group should not
also include the restriction of those
same rights to a second group.
