Peace Corps Contract Pending

UK Okays Turkey Project
By FRANK BROWNING

Assistant Managing Editor
Plans are nearly finalized for
building a University Peace
Corps project in Turkey designed
to analyze, evaluate, and possibly revise the entire Peace Corps
program.
Dr. Willis Griffin, acting director of the project, said negotiations will be completed within
the next 10 days for a twe-yea- r
contract with the Peace Corps
on the Turkey project.
Dr. Griffin returned last week
k
from a
trip to Turkey
which he explained was "to satisfy ourselves on the nature of
the job we will be asked to do
two-wee-

and with other jobs already being
done in community develop-

ment."
"The conclusion was that a
very great need for the level of
participation we are interested
in doing exists in four areas,"

Dr. Griffin explained:
1. Evaluation of the Peace
Corps operation in Community
Development;
2. Help build a long range
plan for the Corps role in Turkish
Community Development Programs;
3. Learn what is needed to
improve Corps training and selection, expecially in community
development training;

narticular need for our
help in thinking through what
is called urban development, especially in dealing with migrant
and
peripheral populations in Middle Eastern communities.

Spring Grades To Decide
Priority For Registration
This semester's grades will
be used in assigning priority
for fall semester scheduling unless some unforeseen changes occur, Dr. Elbert Ockcrman, Dean
of Admissions, said Tuesday.
Dr. Ockcrman had promised
to investigate the possibility of
altering the priority system several weeks ago, when a Faculty
Senate member asked why last
semester's grades might not be
used instead of this semester's,
these would be transfers,
and entering freshmen.
Entering freshmen had virtual
priority last fall, and were fed
into the . IBM machines first.

Final Examination Schedule

The old senior priority system
will not be revived, although Dr.
Ockerman said he had observed
some problems in getting seniors
the courses they need to graduate.

Unfortunately, it does not.
While the number of xocal and
concerned students has increased
quite noticeably, the majority seem
quite xvilling to conform to all of the
old st creotxpes.
No place is this seen more clearly
than at our ow n Unixersity. What
was once the country club of the
South has become an educational
institution of increasing prominence. Manx of its students are
x ocal in their concern for others and
many the Applachian Volunteers,
and the Y tutors, just to name a
few are doing something about it.
But there are still the vast majority who neither know nor care.
There is a student government
that has closed itself away from the
world and wants nothing to do xxith
the
array of problems facing the
of today. That the xvorldxxill

And so all about us the world

It is nigh unto inconceivable

that the nine Kentuckians of the
11 players signed to date
represent

the best of the 1966 crop of high
school players in the state, unless
reference is specifically to Caucasian players alone.
The inconceivability results
from a rexiexv of the major
teams: a majority of the first
team selectees xvere players xvho
happened to be Negro. The records

It is a pleasant change to see
someone reacting to one of my
letters for a change. For a xvhile,
I xvas afraid that everyone else
agreed xxith me, God forbid! Fortunately, John M. Shank has made
his feelings knoxvn.
Yes, Mr. Shank, I am biased.
I am biased by my
knoxvledge of S.E. Kentucky. I did not,
however, state that "people in
Appalachia aren't really poor." I
did say that those xvho are really,
desperately suffering from abject
poverty are a small minority. One
xvill, of course, find the poor everywhere, even in Lexington. More-oxe- r,
according to a reliable authority, they shall always be with
first-han-

d

us.
And because

you and many
others misunderstand the situation so badly, LBJ has brought
to pass a monstrous gixeaxvay program which will eventually reduce
S.K. Kentuckians to drones and
seifs.

Incidentally, the above statement should not be taken as a reflection on the Appalachian Volunteers, who foitunately understand
thatxou must help someone to help
himself; you cannot do it for him
it he is to icinain a nun.

Arizona Case Spurs
More Testing Of Oaths

cern over the impact of the
present conservative monetary
policy is spreading in the highest
levels of the Johnson administration.
One generally ignored statistic tells the story: the statistic
of free reserves that is, the
money held by banks in excess
of money loaned. The Federal
Reserve Board, America's central bank, has kept reserves in
a minus condition so that banks
have more loans outstanding
than money in reserv e. The figure
has slow ly inched up from minus
$47 million the first of the year
to minus $2S5 million today.
That's still less than the
minus $500 million achieved during the Eisenhower administration, shortly before plunging into
recession. But it is tight money
indeed for a Democratic administration. Interest rates have been
rising, to the joy of the banking
community, as in Eisenhower
days.
All this is supposed to fight
