The new faculty ruling requiring applications for admission 30
days prior to the date the student
expects to enroll seems to be having a selective effect on the stu- dent population, according to Dr.
Charles F. Elton, Dean of Admis- -'
sions and Registrar and Dr. Ernest
McDaniel. Director of Testing.
Test score data indicates that
this fall, as compared to two
years ago, seven per cent fewer
students (those be- -j
low the 30th percentile), and nine
per cent more of superior students
(those above the 70th percentile
were enrolled).
, Since the 1956-5- 7 freshmen Included both early and late applicants, and the 1958-5- 9
freshmen
excluded late applicants, Dr. Elton
said it is likely that, in the past,
a good number of below-averastudents were admitted within the
four weeks immediately preceding
registration.
stuHe said the above-averadent not only decides sooner to
attend college, but he decides
early where he is going to school.
Also, some students, Dr. Elton
said, probably apply to the University in August after having been
rejected by, the school of their
earlier choice or choices.
A deadline for applications for
admission was not in effect for
1956-5- 7
academic year. At that
time 168 male undergraduate students applied for admission during
June (early admissions: 140 male
undergraduate
students applied
from the middle of August until
the opening of the Semester (late
admissions).
Test scores reveal that the early
group has an average of GO percentile on the College Qualification Test, while the late group
average is in the 35 percentile.
Fifty-eigper cent of the early
group is still in the University
four semesters later, while 38 per

Library Courses Attract
California Girl To UK

she worked in the library and became interested in library work
as a profession. Her plans after
graduation from UK include either
working as a librarian or on a
Master's Degree.
Along with her parents and
sister Shari, Andrea has
done quite a bit of traveling. When
she was a junior in high school,
they traveled through Canada and
Alaska by boat.
Her high school graduation
present was a trip through Cen- tral and South America. She has
been promised a trip to Em-op-e
when she graduates from UK.
She "loves" movies, and although
she lives about 50 miles from
Hollywood, has never seen very
many movie stars. Neither has she
seen the famous Rose Parade.
Reasons "Too much traffic and
the freeways don't help any."
Andrea finds the changeable
weather in Lexington somewhat of
a nuisance. So different, in fact,
that "I've already gotten a cold."
When asked about hobbies,
Andrea replied. "I'm crazy about
knitting, sewing, and cooking!"
She's unattached, boys, so. take
heed!

Misguided Missileman
It appears that the government inadvertently created a Fnmkenstein when it recently
author ied the establishment of the National
Aeronautical Space Agency.
Under the direction of Dr. Keith Glcnnan,
the NASA earlier this month took over control of all satellite programs and major space
projects. At that time, (ilennan said that
aside from taking over 150 civilians who were
wot king on the Navy's Vanguard satellite,
NASA would not acquire people and facili--

ties now devoted to other, space projects.
Now, however, he has asked the Army to
surrender some 2,100 scientists and engineers
at Alabama's Redstone Arsenal, plus all facilities and personnel at the Army's jet propulsion laboratory at Los Angeles.
In the wake of Glennan's request have
tome rather ominous warnings from a number of top rocket experts including famed
Dr. Wernher Von Brawn, who helped develop the deadly V-rocket for Germany
in World War II that transferring this team
might result in its dissolution.
Many of the Army s scientists have been
2

offered positions in private industry at salaries far greater than those they now receive.
They have repeatedly declined such offers in
the past because many of them have worked
together since the end of the. war, when the
United States brought some 150 of Germany's foremost rocket experts to this country.
The effect of Glennan's request, and of the
President's ultimate decision in granting or
denying it ,could have serious perhaps even
disastrous
lor the United
consequences
States. If the civilian agency is allowed to
split up the Army missile team, it appears
certain that some of the key personnel will
enter private business.
Obviously, this would be a blunder from
which the country could gain nothing and
might lose a great deal. To break up the team
which gave the United States its first earth
satellite, with the forewarning already issued
that many experts may quit if this is done,
would be little short of stupid.

The politicians are in a big hassle over
who is playing partisan politics with American
foreign policy.
They nearly all agree it's a reprehensible
thing to do.
This, they say, is a time of great crisis for
the great affairs of this great republic, when
its great people must present a front of great
unity for the world to see.
This field of agreement begins to fall
apart when it comes to determining what is a
partisan .approach to foreign policy and
what isn't.

In the attack against "grillology," the writer
condemned the jnrrsonnel for thinking "grillology" was a very important phase of college life.
In reply, the editor did not say it was important
nor did he say it was in the paper because of
its news importance.
'Togo" is not important: "Freddy" is not important: "Peanuts" . is not important, but they
are there because. people like to read them. They
entertain millions.

Christopher Columbus was born in C.enoa on August 25, 1451.
His father, Ralph T. Columbus, was in the three-minuauto
wash game. His mother, Eleanor (Swifty) Columbus, was a
sprinter. Christopher was an only child, except for his four
brothers and eight sisters. With his father busy all day at the
auto wash and his mother constantly away at track meets,
young Columbus was left pretty much to his own devices.
However, the lad did not sulk or brood. He was an avid reader
and spent all his waking hours immersed in a book. Unfortunately, there was only one hook in Genoa at the time-C- are
of the Horse by Aristotle and after several years of reading
Care of Vic Horse, Columbus grew restless. So when rumor
reached him that there was another book in Barcelona, oil he
ran as fast as his fat little legs would carry him.
The rumor, alas, proved false. The only book in Barcelona
was Cuidar un Caballo by Aristotle, which proved to be nothing
more than a Spanish translation of Care of tlx Horse.
te

Bitterly disappointed, Columbus began to dream of going to

India where, according to legend, there were thousands of books.
But the only way to go to India was on horseback, and after so
many years of reading Care of the Horse, Columbus never wanted
to clap eyes on a horse again. Then a new tliought struck him:
perhaps it was possible to get to India by seal
Fired with his revolutionary new idea, Columbus raced to
the court of Ferdinand and Isabella on his little fat legs (Columbus was plagued with little fat legs all hit; life) and Headed

his case with such fervor that the rulers were persuaded.
On October 12, 1492, Columbus set foot on the New World.
The following year he returned to Spain with a cargo of wonders
never before seen in Europe spices and metals and plants and
flowers and most wondrous of all tobacco! Oh, what a sensation tobacco caused in Europe The filter had long since been
invented (by Aristotle, curiously enough) but nolody knew
what to do with it. Now Columbus, the Great Discoverer, made
still another great discovery: he took a filter, put tobacco hf
front of it, and invented the world's first filter cigarette I
1

Through the centuries filters have been steadily improved
and so has tobacco, until today we have achieved the ultimate
in the filter cigarette Marlboro, of course! Oh, what a piece
of Work is Marllwo! Great tobacco, great filter, great smoke!
And so, good friends, when next you enjoy a fine Marlboro
Cigarette, give a thought to the plucky Genoese, Christopher
Columbus, whose vision and jierseverance made the whole lovely
tiling jwssible.
