SGA Seeks

Later Hours
For Women
An effort to extend weekend late

hours for women students will be

made soon by a special SGA committee.
Terry Kuester, chairman of
SGA's Committee on Modernizing
Women's Hours, will meet, with
Dean Sarah B. Holmes and the
House Presidents' Council to discuss the issue.
One proposal of the SGA group
Is to allow women students to remain out Friday and Saturday
nights until 1 a.m. Present curfew
hour is 12:30 a.m. on those nights.
Kuester's committee has sent
queries to 100 colleges and .universities throughout the country
requesting information on women's
hours.
Of the 60 replies received by
Wednesday, 60 per cent revealed

means of recognizing outstanding
academic achievement.
Faculty members winning this
honor are given a semester free of
teaching duties to conduct research of their own choosing and
to prepare' the annual Arts and
Sciences Lecture.
Eligible for the award are faculty members in the college who
hold the rank of assistant professor or higher. Each year the choice
is made by secret vote of the
faculty.
Dr. Kammerer, who was relieved
of teaching duties during the current fall semester, is the second
member of the political science
faculty to be selected for the
award. In 1945 the honor went to
Dr. Amry Vandenbosch, head of
the Department of Political Science.
The Arts 'and Sciences Lecture
will be delivered by Dr. Kammerer
on Tuesday night, April 2, in UK's
Guignol Theater. Her subject will
be "The American Setting for

Coach Rupp's Wildcats have won
SEC titles, three NCAA national championships and have appeared in the NCAA tourney more
times than any other college. Kentucky under Coach Rupp has been
picked by sportswriters and coaches as one of the top 20 teams in
the nation many times since he
took over as coach in 1930.
Kentucky lost three valuable
starters, from last year's squad,
Phil Grawemeycr, Bob Burrow and
Jerry Bird- V- Coupled -- with- these
losses and the recent injury to
Ray Mills, probable starter at one
of the forward positions, the Wildcats will present an inexperienced
team to the fans Saturday.
Coach Rupp believes this possibly may be the weakest Kentucky team' he has coached because of this lack of experience.

But the recent
taken by the many sports writers
throughout the nation pay high

build powerhouses, by picking the
Wildcats to finish among the top
20 teams.

Personal papers and efTects of
the late Alben W. Barklcy. rormer
vice president of the United States.
U.S. representative
and senator
from Kentucky, Rre now on deposit at the Margaret I. King Library.
The collection contains Senator
Barkley's public and private papers
from 1940 until his death, April 30.
Much of the material is expected
to be intimate records and personal
views of the American political
picture during this period. Sen.
Barkley's extensive knowledge and
important role on the Kentucky
scene, in the New Deal and the
Fair Deal, make his collection an
important addition' to the library's
facilities.
A key to the political tenor of
the times may be found in the
numerous political cartoons collected by the "Veep".
Included in the Barkley possessions are his files, the gavels he
:used as presiding officer of the
Senate, canes' he collected as a

Racked with misgivings,

K. L. paced the streets, pondering- his dilemma. One day, walking and brooding, ho
came upon a park bench and sat down and lit a Philip
Morris. (There is no occasion, happy or sad, pensive or
exuberant, when Philip Morris is not entirely welcome,
as you will discover when you go to your favorite tobacco
counter and buy some.)

R. L. was suddenly interrupted by a small, quavering
voice which said, "My boy, you are troubled. Can I help?"

Seated beside 11. L. was a tiny, gnarled man with
wispy, snow-whihair. His skin was almost transparent,
showing a delicate tracery of fragile bones beneath. His
back was bent, and his hands trembled. "Do you think,
sir," said R. L., "that a boy can work his way through
college and still enjoy a rich, full campus life?"
"Why, bless you, son," replied the stranger with a
rheumy chuckle, "of course. In fact, I did it myself."
"Was it very hard?" asked R.L.
"Yes, it was hard," the stranger admitted. "But when
one is young, all things are possible. I, for example, used
to get up at five o'clock every morning to stoke the
furnace at the SAE house. At six I had to milk the ewen
at the school of animal husbandry. At seven I gave a
fencing lesson to the Dean of Women. At eight I had a
class in early Runic poets. At nine I gave haircuts at the
Gamma Phi "Beta house. At ten I had differential calculus. At eleven I posed for a life class. At twelve I
watered soup at the Union. At one I had a class in
Oriental languages. At two I exercised the mice in psych
lab. At three I gave the Dean of Women another fencing
lesson. At four I had qualitative analysis. At five I
went clamming. At six I cut meat for the football team.
At seven I ushed at the movies. At eight I had my ears
pierced so that at nine I could tell fortunes in a gypsy
tea room. At ten I hud a class in astronomy. At eleven
I tucked in the foolball team. At twelve I studied und at
three I went to sleep."
"Sir," cried R. L., "I am moved and inspired by your
shining example!"
"It was nothing," said the stranger modestly, shaking
his frail white head. "It was jut hard work, and hard
work never hurt anybody."
"Would you mind telling mo, sir,"
R. L., "how-olyou are now?"
"Twenty-two,- "

d
boy she saw in Freshmeet that cute
man English today.
An imaginary situation? Not at all. It happens
all the time.
And a great part of the situation could be averted
if the University would take necessary steps to provide a place where students could go at night.
-a
The idea ofinakTnglheLittIe Commons suchplace has been thoroughly discussed, and just
as thoroughly rejected.
So, why not open the Student Union Grill at
night?
Admittedly this plan may appeal to freshmen
and sophomores more than to "sophisticated"
and women, who prefer to do their
fraternizing in places with more atmosphere, suh.
But there must be some juniors and seniors
schedule for each
who don't have a tightly-draw- n
night of the week, and who would welcome the
chance to visit the Grill at night.
And we know there are many freshmen and
sophomores who would like to have a campus
meeting place at night where they could become
better acquainted with their fellow University students, especially those of the opposite sex.- We are aware of the fact that freshmen women
are only allowed one night out a week, excluding
weekends, and sophomore women, too.
We are also aware that serious objection to this
proposal will come from some University officials
who feel that ( 1 ) the expense involved in keeping
the CriU open at night will not justify the number
of students who will visit it, and (2) the open
Grill will serve as a magnet to draw students away
'
from their studies.
To the first objection, it is impossible to say
whether this is valid or not, since the proposal has
never been' tried. To the second, we say that these
girls .on
students, especially the
not
their free nights, are going out anyway-w- hy
to a close place on the Campus?
Another point which may be raised is that the
Sweater Swings, established with the aim of helping keep students on the campus, have, in the
main, not been too successful.
But this is not hard to understand. Who, except
for a few of our more ardent lovers, wants to sit
in a dimly-li- t barn and listen to phonograph
all the while wondering if he should
speak to the girl next to him (or are you a man,
too, I can't see in this light).
So we say, oncn the Grill at night. And, if tho
idea is a success, rearrange the tables and let the
students dance or maybe even open the doors to
the cafeteria to give them more room.
If, after a sufficient length of time, nobody is
pa'tronizing the Grill, then mark it up as a bad
.
idea. A test period of this sort shouldn't bankrupt
anybody, not even the University of Kentucky.
But give it a try.
It just might work.

To the Editor:
Being only a common student (independent), my
voice crying in the wilderness has not been listened
to. So I thought I would take my problem to the

students.
Several weeks ago it rained. Having a medical
disability that make it extremely difficult to walk
great distances, I have a parking permit for area 7.
The day it rained I drove to area 7 as I do every
day. Every parking space in area 7 was filled.
Accepting this philosophically, I spotted several
spaces in the next area 8. So I parked in one of
these, and trudged through the rain to my class.
As I passed through area 7 (my area), I noticed a
large number of staff cars with area 8, and other
area, permits. Coming back to my car after class,
I found a ticket for parking in the wrong area
(Area 8) under my wiper.
Just to check I wandered back to area 7, to check
on the staff cars parked in the wrong area there.

THEY HAD NO TICKETS.
On Tuesday following the ticket incident, I
checked the cars in area 7. I wasjight behind the
campus police as they checked the south side of the
area (in front of the Biological Sciences Building).
There were nine cars wrongly parked in this area-fi- ve
of these belonged to students, the rest to staff
members.
Four of the student cars got tickets. None of the
staff cars got tickets.
If a student has a medical reason and is assigned
a certain area to park in, that area should have a
space for him; otherwise, why assign him to that
area? If a student has a hardship in his class schedule and receives a permit, it certainly is not helping
him if there is no space in his assigned area for him
to park in.
Let's either have equal enforcement of the regulations for both the staff and students or let's give
the student a fair deal when he is forced to park in
another area, because his area is full of cars assigned to other areas.
