THE YEAR'S SOCIAL HIGHLIGHT

out-of-sta- te

Centennial Grand Ball Set Feb. 20
Plans for the social highlight
of the University's Centennial
Celebration, the Centennial
Grand Ball, are now taking form.
The ball will be held from
10 p.m. until 2 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 20, in the Student
Center. It will be the opening
event of Founder's Week which
will include Founder's Day on
Monday and close with a Guig-no- l
production running from
Wednesday through Saturday
evenings.
Flans for the ball are being
made by a combined committee
composed of students, alumni,
and faculty members. Cochair-mefor the event are Larry
of the student committee;
Prof. Garrett Flickinger, College
of Law; Mrs. Courtney Ellis;
and Mrs. Frank McVey Jr.
Music for the Grand Ball will
be by Lester Lanin. Dancing will
be in the Student Center Ballroom and a nightclub atmosphere
will prevail in the cafeteria area.
The area will be decorated as
the "Fabulous 100 Club."
Different acts, representating
entertainment through the past
century, will be featured in the
nightclub.
Dress for the event will be
black tie and Gov. and Mrs.
Edward T. Breathitt will lead
the Grand March.
Admission for students will
be $2 per couple and $5 a couple
will be charged faculty and
alumni. The fee admits a couple
to the Student Center and all of
the activities there during the
ball.
Kelley says that his committee is planning to go "all out"
on decorations for the event.
Members of the committee say
they have been able to find no
record of a social event of this
magnitude ever having been held
at the University during its
history.
Some 70 distinguished alumni
who will be honored during
Founder's Week have received
special invitiation to the ball.
All alumni, faculty, and students
are welcome.
Tickets are on sale at Kennedy Book Store, the University
Shop, Finbry's Camp" Shop,
the University Bxk Store, and

Any profits from the ball will

Dr. Weaver said that there
maybe joint sessions of the Rules
Committee and the Faculty
Council to discuss the wording
of the proposal prior to the regular monthly Faculty meeting.
One informed source estimated the percentage of
enrollments in schools comparable to the University in other
states at roughly 15 percent.

Burch Out
As Head
Of GOP
The Associated Press
Ariz. epublican
PHOENIX,
National Chairman Dean
Burch today announced he will
resign, effective April 1, and that
Ray C. Bliss, Ohio chairman,
has consented tobecome national
chairman.
The announcement was made
at a joint news conference in
Phoenix attended by former Sen.
Barry Goldwater, the party's 1964
presidential nominee, Burch,
Bliss, and William E. Miller,
GOP vice presidential nominee.
Mr. Burch said he will submit
his resignation at a meeting of
the Republican National Committee in Chicago Jan.
Unity cannot be achieved by
forcing a vote over his chairmanship in Chicago, he said.
"Even if I won under those
circumstances, neither nor those
who opposed my chairmanship
would be comfortable and my
effectiveness would be impaired,"
Mr. Burch said.
Some Republicans have been
clamoring for his resignation
since the beating the party took
in the general election.
Word of the shift designed
to avert a showdown vote by the
national committee on Burch's
leadership came after days of
behind the scene negotiations.
A COP official who foretold
the plan added the change was
not coming at once, that there
would be a transitional period
before Mr. Bliss takes over.

dent Johnson's Task Force on
Poverty. He said the basic clue
for the poverty program is to
make people in all stations of
life feel they are wanted. Mr.
Bookbinder said the program is
"a hand, not a handout."
According to Mr. Bookbinder,
the point of the government's
antipoverty program is not to
make the life of poor people easier, but to decrease one's chances
of being born into poverty.
"Relatively few people become
poor during a lifetime; they arc
born into it and cannot escape it
by themselves," he added, back- - .,
ing his remarks with statistics.
also menMr. Bookbinder
tioned an Indian proverb that
keynotes the program: "Let me
not judge my brother until I have
walked three miles in his moccasins."
Jesse Stuart, Poet Laureate of
jKerjtuckyVspoke to the assembled
delegates about Appalachia and
his boyhood in Kentucky. Speaking fondly of his native Greenup
County, he called his home,
"one of the finest places
in the world." Mr. Stuart traveled
and taught in colleges around the
world as a state department representative.
The author-teachgave his
answer to Appalachia's plight:
"We are going out. We furnish
teachers to the nation," he said,
noting that the region's new
teachers leave for better pay and
better conditions.
Mr. Stuart affirmed his love
for teaching with "I'd rather
teach than eat, and that's saying
something because I lovetoeat."
He said he had only 22 months
.of elementary schooling. Making
.application to high school with
.this 'background, he passed all
but one of the exams required for
entrance. His examiners gave him
the one point necessary for passing in that course, which was
composition. Mr. Stuart calls this
the "turning point of his career."

* 4Tm Not Fooling So Good Myself"

The Second Century
The beginning of this semester
holds special significance as the
beginning of the University's Centennial Year.
The 1964 session of the Kentucky
Assembly noted that an earlier General Assembly had chartered the
University on Feb. 22, 1865, and
asked, in recognition of that anniversary, that 1965 be observed
throughout the Commonwealth as
the "University of Kentucky Centennial Year."
Talk of the University's Centennial has been circulating around
the state for months. Members of
the University community who are
so close to all of the planning may
not realize the full significance attached to the Centennial by many
Kentuckians.
Special newspaper sections,
community programs, and speakers
will center around UK arid its Centennial all during the year.
Of course the main Centennial
events will be on the Lexington
campus. Programs are planned
throughout the year. Beginning
with tonight's Burley tobacco meeting, many groups will meet on
campus in connection with the
Centennial.
Founder's Week in February will
likely be the high point. Beginning
with the Centennial Grand Ball on

Feb. 20, the week will include
Founder's Day, and art exhibit, and
the Guignol production of "The
Infernal Machine."
Especially noteworthy is the
tone that the Centennial has taken.
Rather than being merely a celebration of past accomplishments,
the administration has chosen to
use the year as a launching pad
for the University's Second Century.
The emphasis wll be on educational excellence and advancement
and all of the Centennial's many
programs have been planned to
carry out that dual theme: recognition of the past coupled with prepa
ration for the future.
The University community is
witnessing a period that will likely
bring greater national prominence
to the school than anything else in
its history. The year cannot be a
complete success, however, without
the cooperation of the University's
students and faculty members.
It is of little use to bring noted
lecturers to the campus to speak to
empty lecture halls and to stage
events that will be sparcely attended.
This year can result in the growth
of that
spark in the
tinderbox only if stuUniversity's
dents and faculty alike are willing
to kindle that embryonic flame.

Hickory,

Kentucky's student newspaper, the
Kentucky Kernel, has been in a controversy over "big footballism"
there.
Opposing the Kernel is the Lexington Herald, the downtown stalwart of the status quo. Putting the
issue of college athletics aside, we
find the Kernel's editorial page
provocative and make several observations of the Herald's position.
The Herald wrote in November;
"At the risk of getting called down
by some of our college publications
for speaking out against what they
term 'the freedom of the press' we
are going to say what we have said
in the past that some type of control should be exercised over student
edited college, high school or similar publications."
The Hera Id's reasons were that
collegiate editors were often immature, "against" things to attract
notice, and near libel "without
fear because they are not financially
responsible" in case someone resents what has been said and decides to pass the matter on to the
courts.
The Herald said the graduating
journalists would "learn quickly
that they also assume a financial
responsibility and that they cannot

make their news and editorial columns a means of venting their
spleens against some of the things
in their communities with which
they may not agree."
College papers, the Heraldsays,
are institutional papers so they
should reflect the thinking of the

institution.
The Herald has some points that
are well taken. Sometimes we are
immature; sometimes we do pursue
petty causes. The Herald is incorrect in stating that we are free from
financial responsibility.
There is at present a $150,000
libel suit against a student editor
