they have been "lighter" in the past
year or so. A

a long paddle line and had to kill
a goldfish with his teeth.
Yet this primitive sort of punishment is being allowed to go unpunished because no injury has resulted.
Enforcement of the rule is so bad for

for instance, that the adviser is not even present for the informal initiations in the Coliseum,
though he certainly must have been
aware of what was going on.
The same holds true for other organizations. Hazing is always held
behind closed doors, where there
are no faculty advisers and no one
to enforce UK rules against it.

of discrimination just as much as we

system.

The issue should not be discrimination, but whether UK rules should
be enforced before an injury occurs
or after. As it was in the Delt incident, the Dean of Men's Office did not
act (and could not because of a lack
of knowledge about it) until after a
pledge had to be hospitalized.
If any other campus organization
military, athletic, or honorary had
to have a pledge hospitalized, we
feel sure it would have received just"
as harsh a punishment as the Delts.

students be familiar with the plan
if their own advisers were not well
versed in all the steps of it?
Once the administration decides
upon a preclassification program that
is the least evil and least disgusting
(there has never really been a satisfactory registration system), it
should make an effort to inform all
student advisers of the procedures
either by means of a printed booklet,
a convocation, or perhaps by staff
bulletin.
Under the old registration system,
the rules for classifying were listed
in the fronc of the schedule book.
Since preclassification now has yet to
be made permanent and has been
changed in several ways, no longer do
the schedule books have the rules
listed.
We believe a booklet, pamphlet,
or some other method of communicating the preclassification system to the
advisers is almost compulsory because
of its complexity. If there is not any
effort made to do so, we can expect
another semester like the last in
which 2,000 students were left
stranded in postclassification lines.
Or else, we can go for 3,000 next
time.

Advice For Advisers
With hopes of allaying the confusion of last semester's prcclassifica-tion- ,
the Registrar's Office instituted
another plan this week that could,
if followed to the letter by students,
be workable.
And last semester's maelstrom
should be avoided if a new preclassi-ficatio- n
system has to be devised
every semester. When the period for
registering had ended, 2,000 students
still were without class schedules.
That was almost one third of the
student body.
Much of the criticism for this was
laid directly upon the students for
not following directions and upon the
registrar for setting up such a plan
anyway. Most of the criticism was
unwarranted.
But not so much attention was
paid to the crackup in the advisory
system. Many UK student advisers
simply weren't familiar with all the
phases of the preclassification plan
and were just as confused as most
of the students.
This was not as much the fault
of the .UK administration as it was
the system. The line of communication between them was poor indeed
during preclassification. How could

No matter how much discrimination, no matter how many other
organizations are escaping, we can't
muster up enough sympathy or pity
for the Delts to agree that their
punishment was too harsh. Hazing is
simpl too dangerous to go unpunished, even if it reflects discreditably
on the Delts and on the fraternity

How arc dignity and pride going

trivialities. We must have concrete
and factual answers to the problem.
Admittedly some specific points
of impoitance are found in the aerospace science program. They give
introductory information on the
latest missiles and aircraft.
Information such as this, in both
the introductory and advanced stages,
is of the type that should be emphasized. If more time were spent on
instruction on material such as this,
the services might lc regarded in a
higher light.
This would promote real dignity;
something which is sadly lacking as

To Larry H. Strong:
It is amazing how a person can
go through life with a great talent
and potential, yet never realize that
he possesses it.
I have so much more hope of
success now that my dramatic abilities have been brought to light by
the eminent drama critic Larry
Strong.
Mr. Strong, with the insight and
genius of Cecil B DeMille, has
created a series of roles that when
slapped into one dazzling script would
rival the greatest movie ever produced, "The Horn Blows at Mid-

night."
Doubtless, Mr. Strong has developed a great love and passion for
the affinitative qualities of BOTC.
This poor soul has found a cause
