Robert E. Allen got his B.A. degree
from Wabash College in June, 1957,
and went to work with Indiana Bell
Telephone Company at Indianapolis.
'It looked like a growing company
wheT6vI could grow, too," he aays.
It was. Today he is an Assistant
Traffic Supervisor there. He's in charge

of six other supervisory people and
about '100 telephone operators.
' Bob attributes his rapid progress to
two main factors: the thorough train
ing he received and the steady growth
of the telephone business.
"I was trained to be a telephone man

ager, rjot just a traffic specialist, he
points but "I've also had practical,
experience in the plant, commercial and engineering phases of the1
business. So I'm equipped to handle
new responsibilities all the time. And

in this
field, that means I have more chancel

* The Control Over SG
An appalling situation existing in

Student Congress was brought to
light at this weekend's Leadership
Conference and it is one which every
UK student should be informed about.
We learned that the Student Congress Executive Committee now consists of 11 people five students and
six faculty members. What we would
like to know is why faculty members
outnumber students on a student
government committee? If the faculty
is going to insist on running the assembly, why don't they abandon the
pretense of student
and take direct control?
The supposed purpose of running
Student Congress has been to give
students the feeling that they are
on certain
governing themselves
points. In actual practice, however,
SC merely has served as a sounding
board of student opinion for the faculty and an administrative body which
handles matters of detail as putting
out student directors, sponsoring a
homecoming dance, and lending
money to insolvent campus organizations.
We are now faced" with a situation
in which, SCs constitution is being
violated and misused. While the constitution does call for motions to be
approved by the Executive Committee and placed on the agenda for
self-governme-

A

the regular SC meeting, "emergency"
motions may be made from the floor.
But, according to the SC president,
"emergency" legislation lias been
This means that any motions
made from the floor at SC meetings
must be referred to the Executive
Committee for a ruling on its acceptability. Under this setup, questions
which are likely to cause some controversy stand little chance to get
before the assembly. If they are voted
on and passed, they are liable to be'
ruled out of order.
I

nt

We understand that this will save
the administration the embarassment
of having to answer for SC's decisions
to discuss such questions as student
drinking. Nevertheless, it will also eliminate the prime reason for SC's existencethat of being a group for
sounding out student opinion and acting in
with the administration, not under its control.
For with the Executive Committee in control of what legislation is
to be put before the assembly, SC
might as well disband.
Even the phone company can put
out phone books, everyone at UK can
sponsor dances, and some of the insolvent groups saved by SC's financial
help might have been better off if allowed to dissolve.

Disagree Respectfully
To The Editor:
Although a Protestant, I could not
help being appalled by Name With-held- 's
crude condemnation of the
'
Catholic Church in todays (Oct. 8)
Kernel. Does he really believe that
he, an individual, possesses more wisdom than the multitudes who, have
developed the church through the
ages? I readily understand his de- sire to withhold his name from the
readers of the Kernel, but wonder if
he has forgotten that there is One
from whom no one can hide, and He
is the founder" of the church. As a
it is his privilege to
disagree with the church, but he
might do so respectfully.
Peggy Wyse
non-Catholi- c,

Socialized Religion
To The Editor:
I read with interest the Readers
Forum on religious apathy. In my
own personal opinion I think religious apathy does and does not exist.
Probably one would think it exists
because organized church groups are
not going about the campus trying
to stimulate an interest in religious
organizations. I think the reason for
this i$ that a lot of the uncommitted
students lave . come to see most
churches as where you go sit through
an hour or an hour and a half sermon
on the same subject that only remotely concerns principles laid down
in the Bible. Instead of talking about
how to get to the other world, they
concentrate on the complexity pf
problems in this world. Most students are too well aware of these
complexities.
Then, too, church has gotten to be
a place where you go to eat, to see
and be seen,( and to listen to one
man's opinion on Christianity instead
of studying the opinions of the Biblical writers." They attract students

tractions. To the businessman it is a
place to meet his customers, the
townspeople, and the students in
school here. In this way the businessman's firm can stay before the public
even in Church. I believe some students realize this and stay away from
the churches because these things can
be gotten somewhere else.
On the other hand, I find some
of the basic practices of Christianity
practiced more on this campus than
in other places I have been to. For
instance, the principle of love or
charity, one of the
of this
quality friendliness, is very much in
evidence in the classrooms, restaurants, and where every student goes
to in Lexington. Love or charity, in
my own estimation, with all of its
outward evidences is the very essence
of Christianity. And this essence, I
find, has a real place on the campus
of the University.
In conclusion, I would say that the
religious apathy is towards organized
religious groups, not Christianity..

The UK Date "Line"
To The Editor:
-The "line" comes and goes, rarely
staying long unless needed. However,
he is usually within calling distance
to be used if needed. In the ' latter
. case, he will be in his seat well in advance of the beginning of the performance, but usually leaves after the
second scene, if not before, when the
players no longer need his clapping
to spur them on to achievement of
their fullest acting abilities. If he
does happen to remain in the final
scene, he leaves abruptly at its close
and is seen no more that night or day,
as the case may be. He enjoys first
nighters and is at his best for these.
He dislikes later, repeat performances,
but will attend although his interest
is slight and therefore his clapping
negligible.

Life In Russia

Part 5

The University At Moscow
By DON MILLS

Approaching Moscow, the first structure that comes 'into sight is the tall
and handsome Moscow State University.
.It stands high above the skyline, symbolic of education's place in the Soviet
Union.
Its 32 stories shoot impressively into
the sky looking down upon Moscow
from Lenin Hills. It is said that there
are 22,000 rooms and more than 14,000
students in this compact unit. Another
10,000 students are at the old building.
There are 2,500 teachers in this
skyscraper which contains nice red
carpeting, beautiful chandeliers, and
marble columns. Lecture rooms are neat
and bright. Movable blackboards are operated on electric rollers. Each student-des- k
in the lecture room and the library
has an individual light.
When this building was going up in
1948, Moscovites did a lot of grumbling,
especially those living in overcrowded
rooms. There's none today.
". The youth of Russia are scientifically
and technically minded. They arc Sputnik and rocket minded, greatly interested in electronics and all aspects of
nuclear science. They want to read and
learn.
The library shelves are filled with the
latest American technical and scientific
books. In fact, there are journals from
all over the world. Most of the publications are in English, but English is
the second language in the Russian
schools. It is said that more than half
of the Russian scientists read the language fluently.
The library has no American propaganda books, as the Russians refer to
them, even though there are American

newspapers. American books usually
concern 19th century happenings and
show the worse side of our country.
Faulkner, Steinbeck, and Hemingway
arc popular contemporary writers. Along
with hundreds of American books in the
stacks are "Crapes of Wrath," Tobacco
Road," and "Uncle Tom's Cabin:"
Practically all students attend the
university free of charge. Some pay
their own way since their ability is not
high enough to obtain a gfant.
Students must be over 17 and under
35 when they take the entrance examination. If it is passed, the student will
receive free education for five years and
a good job upon graduating. Five years
are required for an ordinary degree.
The amount of money a student receives does not depend upon the income of his parents. The higher grade
a student makes, the more money he restudent receives
ceives. A
more than an undergraduate.
An art student said he received 350
rubles a month or about half of the
average Russian salary. He said the arts
student was the lowest paid and that
many of the students receive more than
an industrial worker Engineers and
scientists are the best paid. The number
of students in any department can bo
increased by raising the amount of
money.
