Coeds Speak Out On Laiv Students ' Capers
By BOB B AUG II and KYRA IIACKLEY

One coed said, "I always cut through Botanical Oardens
to avoid the whistles of the law students."
Lucia Brldgeforth, Versailles, said, "I would feel
safer if they were in a cage."
One coed believed an overpass should be built over
the law school to prevent embarrassment.
Tat Cassidy, senior home economics major,
retorted emphatically, "What law students?"
One person timidly said, "Suddenly I want to be a
witness for my defense."
"They look like a bunch of lounge lizards and
you would think they would have better things
to do than squawk and gawk," snapped a fleeting coed.
One coed offered a suggestion. "If they have so many
pennies to pitch, why don't they go to Frankfort and
pitch them into Bert's blooming blunder, the floral clock."

"I fed like a factory part rolling past the assembly line inspector,' said Lynda Hanson, Lexington, when asked how she felt when walking by
Lafferty Hall with the law students perched on the
steps.

Various comments were made during recent Inter-View- s.
A librarian in the Margaret I. King Library said
that traffic has picked up considerably since the spring
weather has brought the law students outside.
Regardless of the pleasure the parade of coeds
Rives the law students, the females have other ideas.
Many freshman coeds admit they are flustered by
the thought of passing in review.
Many more go out of their way to avoid the "Jeers."

In their defense, the law itudents had this statement to make, "Due to the rigorous academic program, the activities on the steps of the Uw school
are merely a few moments of diversion. We also serve
who stand and watch."
Many coeds admit they are flattered by the thought
of passing on stage. Not all comments are derogatory.
"Yelling at coeds is here to stay and should Just be

Emphasis On Nuts, Bolts

The room marked 211 in McVey
Hall has many possible uses. It could
be a lecture room or a small art
gallery or a dairy barn. One thing
it should not be, however, is office
space for 13 English professors and
instructors.
Of course, it is the latter. Desks
and typewriters are lined in clumsy
rows one after the other in the moderately long, but narrow room. There
are no partitions or screens, so the
counseling of students, if not simply
hopeless, is certainly made as difficult as possible. Many of the professors are working on important dissertations and books, vainly no doubt,
because no one could really work
amid the confusion in Room 211.

Yet, public relations men brightly
assure us, the University is alive with
progress. They point to the recently
dedicated University Hospital, to the
entire Medical Center complex, to
the new Chemistry-Physic- s
Building,
to the Agricultural Science Research
Center that is now under construction, and to the projected new Colleges of Commerce, Engineering, and
Education.'
And President Frank G. Dickey
told a meeting of the University Faculty: "All of us should be quite
proud. We have come far in a relatively brief period of time."
In a way, the president's statement makes sense. We have come far
in some respects, and everyone interested in the University applauds
the progressive strides that have been
made.
But some, while happy to see the
University growing, are not entirely
elated over the directions of growth.
A benevolent monsoonal has soaked
the technological and professional
schools, but the liberal arts have been

Back To Education

In a world in which there is increased emphasis on specialization in
education and there is a proliferation
of snap, hobby-likcollege courses, it
is a pleasure1 to read about the
Plan.
MacMurray College at Jacksonville, 111., is dropping about 200
courses, or 40 percent of those it
previously has carried? Discontinued
will be Jiome economics, journalism,
shorthand and typing . , . and similar
specialties.
The main purpose is to get back
to education for its own sake to turn
individuals with a
out
cultural basis that will serve as a
foundation for specialization. Says
President Gordon Michalson:
"One of the problems of modern
times is that people cannot communicate with one another. Those trained
in science cannot communicate with
those trained in the humanities 'and
vice versa. We are suffering from

shaded absolutely from any shbwcr
of blessing.
In fact, students who want to
study political science, diplornacy,
philosophy, geography, or sociology
still must do it in the Social Sciences
Building, a splintery relic of World
War II that is best described as an
unlit tinderbox. About the cheeriest
hope the future can offer social scientists at UK is that someday they
may be packed up and moved, temporarily of course, into rambling old
Pence Hall, at whatever date the
Physics Department happens to get
through with it.
The Department of Modern Foreign Languages is hidden away, like
a shameful secret, on the topmost
floor of Miller Hall, an anachronism
which had its origin before the turn
of the century. The History Department's Frazee Hall (1907) had to be
fairly gutted by fire before the administration undertook renovation of
the building. Cadavers at the Medical Center are housed in cooler and
more commodious surroundings than
English professors.
Technological progress should not
be scoffed at or undermined, naturally, but at a university it should
never be permitted to obscure the
importance of the liberal arts, on
which our university system was
founded. The University would be
wise to take this into consideration
when planning future budgets.
No student of literature or history or philosophy wants to graduate
from a school that places all the'em-phasi- s
on nuts and bolts.

MacMurray would give each student a good grounding in the "esaccumulated
sence of mankind's
knowledge and culture over the ages."
This will enable them to "live usefully and understandingly in a cosmopolitan world."
"By giving students a background
in the besi that has been thought and
said in modern civilization," says Dr.
Michalson, "we are giving them a
basis for making the choices tlwt are
required of all humans between good
and evil, the beautiful. and the ugly,
truth and falsehood."
There are, of course, other colleges that traditionally bear down

THE REV. TOM FORNASII

Methodist Student Chaplain
In the biography of the painter
George Frederick Watts, there is a
striking story. A mature man came
with his paintings and drawings to
Dante Gabriel Rossetti and begged
the great
to give him a
candid opinion of them. Rossetti
looked at them carefully, wondering
1k)w he could break to the poor man
the news that there was nothing good
in them whatever. Eventually,
he
gave him to understand this as kindly
as he could.
The man then drew from under
poet-paint-

collection of drawings and, spreading them out, said
that they were the work of a young
student. Rossetti was delighted, exclaiming that they showed remarkable talent and that there was every
reason to believe that the young student would distinguish himself.
"Ah sir," said the man, "I was
that young student." Somewhere
"the distruction that wasteth at noon
day" had destroyed the promise of
his
