Draft Card

A problem has arisen at the
University concerning a number
of students being classified for
the draft while they are still

Students classified as

considered as first priority and
are immediately eligible to be

While the UK administration
is
attempting to solve the
dilemma, students who have received an inaccurate classification are asked to report immediately to Dean Charles Elton,
dean of admissions and registrar,
in order to get the matter
straightened out.
"We're not really sure just
where the problem stems, but

Student Congress POLITICS

Academic Assistance Bill
Discussed By Committee
By TERRENCE HUNT
Assistant Managing Editor
Opposition to a proposed Student Congress sponsored academic assistance program will
be voiced at Congress' meeting
Thursday by at least one member
of a review committee considering
the bill.
Oscar Westerfield, Congress
representative, said Tuesday he
will suggest Congress reconsider
the bill because of the program's
on
of
dependence
support
honorary organizations to provide
the impetus.
Westerfield is a member of a
three-ma-n
committee
charged
with considering the Academic
Assistance bill. A simple two out
of tliree majority will decide
whether or not the bill comes
back to the Congress floor favorably or unfavorably.
The bill was introduced at
Congress' last meeting and was
referred back to the review committee for inspection and suggestions.
The gist of the bill is that
Congress sponsor a program
making study areas available in
the proximity of student residences for academic assistance
and that these study areas be
staffed by a tutorial group composed of members of honorary
societies. "
Westerfield felt the bill would
be worthwhile if it could be
implemented. He said, "However, I don't feel it was written
in a way it would be a success.
It relies completely on the
and we're not going to
get anyone for free."
As proposed in the bill, the
program needs volunteer tutors
hon-orari-

for study hall supervision and
sistance 52 hours a week.

Letters

asking

support

as-

and

participation in the program were
sent to the 20 honoraries on
campus three weeks ago by Sheryl
Snyder, author of the bill.
So far only five have responded, each favorably.
Westerfield met last Monday
with Ed Hastie, Congress representative, in the committees' first
meeting. Westerfield said Hastie
agreed with him then that the
bill should be reported unfavorably.
The two agreed, however, to
contact each other if either one
would change their mind.
The committee was to meet
again today because Hastie now
says he may back the bill. "I
would like to report it favorably
if I can be shown it will work,"
Hastie said. But he added that
he has not been convinced yet
that the program would work.
Hastie will meet with Snyder
to discuss the bill before meeting
with Westerfield and the third
Suzanne
committee
member,
Billiter.
Tuesday night Miss Billiter
said her vote would be to report
it back favorably. She said that
after. the program was initiated
the program's administration
could iron out difficulties with
the honoraries.
She suggested that the administration personnel contact
the honoraries and seek their
cooperation.
Snyder said he felt passage of
the bill would stimulate honoraries' interest in the program.
Snyder's job in drafting the
proposed bill was to look at

existing study facilities and to
review the bill passed by
Congress last year on academic
assistance and determine why it
did not work. And then he was to
write one that did.
Last year's Congress passed a
similar measure calling for a
tutorial program and expansion
of study areas.
The program was unsuccessful
because it directed primary responsibility for the program on
dormitory counselors, according
to Snyder. Sections of the bill,
regarding how to study, were

Elton.

Actually, the mistakes in
classification could be made in
any of five phases of the student's
draft registration:
1. Students giving inaccurate
information when they register
or failing to fill out a draft
classification card at all.
2. The University registrar's
office losing the cards.
3. Cards being lost in the mail
en route to Frankfort where they
are sent two or three weeks
after the beginning of the
semester.
4. The office in Frankfort misplacing the cards.
5. Cards not being properly
delivered to the student's local
draft boards.
"We're pretty sure the problem does not rest with the University because there is no set
pattern to the wrong classifications. No definite block of
students are being wrongly registered, it's just seperate individuals," said Dean Elton.
No estimate as to the actual
number of students faced with
wrong classifications has yet been
made.

In an effort to combat the
problem, the University hopes to
institute a new draft classification
system at the beginning of the
Spring semester.
At that time students will
write all the required information
down on an IBM punch card
which will then be run through
a computer in order to cut down
on the many individual hands
through which the cards were
previously passed.
"By using this new system, the
administration will definitely be
able to determine whether the
problem rests directly with the
University," stated Dean Elton.
Mrs. Sara Saunders, clerk of
local board number 23 commented
that the students are receiving

not being sent their registration

University, is sponsoring the fifth
seminar in a series of six dealing
with "Focus on Lexington."
The program will feature a
panel discussion involving the
student and community concerns
with legal freedoms and responsibilities. Robert Johnson, UK vice
president for student affairs, will
lead the student discussion with
Winston Miller, Student Congress
president, and Judge Richard P.

Marines 'Concerned9 About Protests

.Six

Robert L.
Johnson recently received a letter
from six marines stationed in
Vietnam. The student protest
activities, such as the march on
Washington held during Thanksgiving Vacation, attacking the
United States policy in Vietnam
seem strange to these men who
are fighting on the battlefields
for the United States position.
"We receive letters, newspapers and magazine articles con
Vice-Preside- nt

cerning the student protest on
America's stand in Vietnam. We
don't quite know what to make
of it!" the letter said.
The marines requested that
their names and address be made
available to the student body
of the University.
"Perhaps we could exchange
views on the subject. It would
be greatly appreciated by all of

us."

considered redundant ami unnecessary, he added.
Under the projxscd bill Congress itself would assume primary
responsibility and would establish an administration consisting
of a director and representatives
from men's and women's residence councils, the
Student Association, and from
each participating honorary organization to regulate the program and assure it's implementation.
"This is an opportunity to
assume the leadership on campus
that Student Congress is supposed to have," Snyder said.
Westerfield, unsure of the
program's chances, said, "Student Congress is not in shape to
take on losing programs.
The bill is sure to come up
on the Congress floor tomorrow
since it is scheduled early in the
meeting.
Whether or not the bill comes
back unfavorably Congress representatives will have the opportunity to debate the issue and call
for a vote.

* Man, That Guy's Gonna Have A Real View
Of Urban Sprawl"

Louisville College Needed
We are delighted to see rising
of
support for the
Louisville community college in the
Jefferson County area.
The University included a sizeable appropriation for the project
in its budget request, and Monday

educational level on a part-tim- e
basis.
The college would turn out
skilled vocational personnel in two-yeterminal-degre- e
programs to
meet the acute of the highly urban
area.

Cov. Edward Breathitt pledged his
support for the institution. Gov.
Breathitt told high school students
he would ask the General Assembly
for funds for operation and staffing
the institution. The construction
costs, he added, would be paid from
the recently-passe- d
Louisville city
bond issue.
Certainly the need for a community college in the Louisville
area is pressing. Though it is the
largest city in the state, Louisville
has no
commuter
college to serve its
college-seekin- g
student toll.
the people of Louisville
Though
pay a large portion of state taxes
which, in part, finance low-cocommunity colleges in other parts
of the state, they have no such
institution as yet for their own use.
A community college in Louisville also would be a blessing for
adults whose occupational commitments keep them in an urban area
but who could take advantage of
low-cocommunity colleges to uptheir skills and advance their
grade

With the University planning
eventually for the community
colleges to handle the bulk of lower
division undergraduate education,
it is essential that such an institution be established in the area
from which the major portion of the
students come.

The joint arrangement between
the University of Louisville and UK
is an excellent one, allowing both to
make unique contributions to the
development of the college. While
UK has the advantage of prior experience in establishment and
operation of community colleges,
the University of Louisville likely
has keener insights into the special
problems and needs of that city.
With this joint backing the proposed college would receive an
especially firm launching.
We hope the General Assembly
will match the enthusiasm of the
UK Trustees and Gov. Breathitt in
their support of the college.
The need is acute and increasing
at a fast pace.

The Library Vacation
Many University students were
placed at a great disadvantage last
weekend as the Margaret I. King
Library altered its regular hours
for the Thanksgiving holidays. The
library celebrated the season wholeheartedly by being open for only
13 hours during the entire vacation
from classes.
It was a mistake for the library
to shorten its hours at a time when
some students plan to do research
necessary for class projects. Operating under the short semester
system and with increased academic
loads, students often need the only
vacation period during the semester
to catch up in class work and complete research projects.
We realize the majority of students left the campus for Thanksgiving and would not have used
the library had it been open more.
We also realize most student
workers at the library probably

were gone during the period. But
there still were a number of students who needed use of library
facilities, and these facilities were
available for only a few, scattered
hours.
The library at the Law Building
followed a schedule close to regular hours during the Thanksgiving
break, and it was well used. The
King Library supposedly serves
many more students, yet it was
open less.
We feel the library in its present condition is inadequate for the
increased enrollment at the University. Often times students find
it difficult to even find a seat,
not to mention the fight for certain
reserved books in great demand.
Although the library would have
been used less during the break,
we feel under the circumstances
it was a mistake to drastically limit
the hours available for student use.

Rejuvenation Needed
Richard Nixon experienced the
Latin American temper in 1958
when the car in which he and his
wife were riding through Caracas,
Venezuela, was nearly overturned
by an angry mob. This week, both
Secretary of State Dean Husk and
Sen. Robert Kennedy have been
spat upon in Uruguay and Chile,
respectively.
In between, seven years have
passed. The Alliance for Progress,
which sparked intense interest at
first, has run into red tape difficulties as well as opposition from
Latin Americans who do not want
to remain dependent on the "nor- -

teamericanos."
In addition, of
course, the quick use of military
force in both Panama and the
Dominican Republic has destroyed
much good feeling that carried over
from the popularity of President
Kennedy.
Somehow the spirit that created
the Alliance for Progress must be

Letter to the Editor

Louisville Reader Defends
ROTC Drills On Grass
To the Editor of the Kernel:
A letter in your Nov. 4 edition
from three staff members of the
Political Science department leads
to the question of their ability to
reason logically and also their desire
to know the facts of whioh they
speak.
As to their statement concerning
the status of the grass in front of
the Administration Building, they
apparently are ignorant of the fact
that for the past 40 years at least
the ROTC units have been drilling
in this area with no more damage
visible than a path, worn by students on their way to "increased

training for many who helped bring
us victories on past battlefields,
and thus helped preserve for these
staff members their right to express
their opinions freely today.
Perhaps if we all followed some
of their policies, none of us will
have left the right to disagree
tomorrow.

Rocky Seeks Alliance With Lindsay

Gov. Nelson Rockefeller of New York,
angling hard for a third term, has privately
political office
proposed a special, high-levto reduce friction between Albany and Mayor-elec- t
John V. Lindsay in New York City.
Mr. Lindsay's spectacular election as
Mayor marks the first time in modern political
history that New York's Governor and New
York City's Mayor have Ixrth been Republi-- .
cans. What worries Gov. Rockefeller, and
properly so, is the possibility of a cold war
of politics between Albany and Manhattan
that might seriously damage the Republican
party and Gov. Rockefeller's own prospects
for a third term.
Apart from Cov. Rockefeller's special
problems, the Rockefeller idea for an un(trusted by
precedented city-stat- e
both Rockefeller and Lindsay) makes sense.
Rut whether Rockefeller can work it out is
still an open question. To understand why, a
bit of recent New York political history is
essential.
In the first place, Mr. Rockefeller's popularity has nosedived to low levels in the past
year. Some of the shrewdest Republicans in
the state are so concerned over the Governor's
standing that they have privately pressured
Sen. Jacob' K, Javits to run for the Republican
'
nomination himself. These
gubernatorial
efforts started last spring and continue today.
But Sen. Javits has flatly refused to lead
crusade. Although he has
an
doubts of his own about Rockefeller and

would love nothing more thantobe Governor
of New York himself, Javits simply won't
g
play the
game.
Accordingly, without Sen. Javits to take
the lead, the only possible way to head off
a possibly disastrous Rockefeller third-tereffort is for Mr. Rockefeller to bow out
voluntarily. Republican realists see about as
much chance of that happening as of Rockefeller being nominated for President. '
This is the background for Gov.
Rockefeller's secret proposal that a new
political office, to be located either in Albany
or in New York City, act as confidential
for him and Mayor Lindsay.
One prospect for the job was Robert
Price, Lindsay's campaign manager and
closest political intimate. But Mr. Price now
has been appointed one of Mayor Lindsay's
Deputy Mayors. Besi
