University Phone System Under Study

Editor's Note: The following is the first of two articles
?n the University phone system.

Kernel Staff Writer

Attention men trying to break the telephonic sound
barrier into women's dormitories:

has been recognized.
James Pelfrey, manager of communications services
at UK, points out that only 300 of the University's
1.C00 internal telephone lines aredesignated for dormitory
residents.
With about 3.G00 students' being housed this semester,
that's one phone for every 12 students.
There are no Immediate plans to increase the number

of dormitory lines, although 300 lines have been added
for Medical Center and administrative purposes, Mr.
Pelfrey said.
Monty Price, CenTel's representative working with
Mr. Pelfrey on the current study, said he would like to
sample student opinion about the campus phone system.
"We're interested in students' feelings on the philoit should serve
sophy of a campus phone sy stem-h- ow
the users.
"I'm not interested in whether a student wants a
pink phone or a white one."
He suggested that students interested in voicing their
opinion get in touch with Mr. Ptlfrey's office.
Concerning the almost omnipresent busy signal on
dormitory lines, he said:
"I remember when 1 went to UK how I had to wait
a long time to get a date by phone."
Mr. Price is a 1953 Commerce graduate of the Unih
versity. He is coordinating CenTel's part in the
study, now
Mr. Price said he has interv iewed about 30 persons,
all 30 being department heads or other staff members.
"But we're not forgetting the student. I've talked
four-mont-

with Dean (of Women) Doris Seward and Vice President
(for Student Affairs) Robert Johnson. I got the impression
that they would both like to see the best communication system possible for the students."
Both present and future needs of the University are
being considered in the study, A. Paul Nestor, director
of University business services, said.
The new campus plan, which requires relocating
most utility lines, was the main reason for iniation of
the study, Mr. Nestor explained.
Mr. Price outlined a three-folgoal of the study:
To determine the communications requirenw nts required to effectively and economically fulfill the University's educational objective.
To evaluate the degree to which present services
meet those requirements.

He praised the' community

the local community in managing
and lending advice to resource
conservation problems.
"The multiversities have, I
believe, lost touch in many respects with the varied needs of
students. The institutions have
become too big and too impersonal.

"Our nation was founded on
the concept that the individual
citizen was the important unit
and that the government was a
mechanism for protecting and

expanding bis freedoms."
Tracing the nation's history
and its struggle with this freedom,
Whitehead confronted the University Students with what may
have been the biggest struggle
the country
had faced the
struggle between east and west.
"In this struggle, we 'have

seen cynicism increase, a cynicism that questions the basic
soundness of our capitalistic
system, that questions the old
values of morality, that questions
the worth of the future, and even
the worth of the past.
"It is not a questioning for
knowledge. It is a querulous
cynicism of defeat and frustration
that is curiously close to a wail
of despair.

The Evil Triumvirate
It is often said law is a jealous
mistress. She demands to be attended every moment so that she might
not slip away. Those who are entrusted with her care cannot for
one instant let down their guard.
But sometimes the defense is
not good enough, and the watchful
eye strays. This happened in
Alabama last week. A jury
of twelve, "good and true," may
have closed their minds for that
one instant when extreme care was
needed most urgently.
It is not for us to sit here in
judgment of a jury for acquitting
a man of the charge of manslaughter. It is not for us to condemn
that same man for pleading

and killing a seminary stupriest
dent who were supposedly carrying
weapons, though these were never
produced in court.
It is rather for us to cry out
against a society that would allow
any such heinous act as killing to
be passed off as just another of
life's tragic experiences. When society does this, it is not just letting
down its guard. It is actively contributing to the escape of justice, of
law, that jealous mistress.
Hay-nevill- e,

In a legal system such as the
American system, which is so highly dependent on precedent, each
person must watch carefully to see
the basic concepts of law and justice are preserved. One man cannot
take the life of another without the
punishment of the law. Yet it happens, and society frowns a little,
but does no more than raise a
slight whimper of discontent that
the pattern has been broken.
Are each of us so shortsighted
we cannot see a new precedent has
been set that condones killing?

Alabama's Attorney General, Richmond Flowers puts it rather well
when he says "those who feel they
have a license to kill, destroy, and
cripple have been issued that license."
Now society faces an even hardtask. It has opened the door and

Art's Coming Of Age
The United States government
has entered a new field which is the
proper province of an affluent society. Congress has passed and President Johnson has signed the National Arts and Humanities Act of
1965. It provides about twenty-on- e
million dollars to be spent over
three years.
Only once before, during the
1930s, did the government show
any active concern for artists, and
then it was mainly to keep them
from starving to death in the depression years; The present program is much more broadly conceived. It is designed to show
"equal visibility" with the work
of the National Science Foundation, which has put America in the
forefront of scientific research and
development.
President Johnson clearly sees
the limits of government action in
the arts and humanities. "No government," he has declared, "can
call artistic excellence into existence. It must flow from the quality
of the society and the good fortune
of the nation. Nor should any government seek to restrict the freedom of the artist to pursue his call

ing in his own way. . . . But government can seek to create conditions under which the arts can
flourish."
Artistic activity will be encouraged through existing state and
local organizations. Federal funds
cannot, of course, subsidize hundreds of orchestras, theaters, opera
and ballet companies, but they can
be used to stimulate local support
and to enhance quality. In the
humanities, there will be grants to
scholars and encouragement to humanistic studies in schools and
colleges.
A Commission on the Humanities was appointed last year by the
President. Its members issued a
stirring call for the kind of legisla-

tion that has now been voted by
Congress: "We propose a program
for all our people, a program to
meet a need no less serious than
that for our national defense. We
speak, in truth, for that which is
being defended our beliefs, our
ideals, our highest achievements."
That is the theme of the adventure
on which the nation is now
launched.

Los Angeles Asks When'?
LOS ANGELES Among both white and Negro
leaders in intimate contact with the seething Los
Angeles Negro community, the question is not
but "when" violence will erupt again.
It may be less serious than the virtual insurrection in the Watts section two months ago.
It may not even come in Watts (which contains
less than 40,000 of Los Angeles's 600,000 Negroes).
But the legacy of the Watts riots is acceptance
of violence as a means of political action by the
city's repressed Negro minority.
Indeed, incidents of violence arc increasing
in frequency, but arc not given publicity by news
media in a laudable desire not to trigger another
holocaust.
Some of the incidents are minor but highly
symbolic. In an area gutted by the August fires,
a sign advertising "easy credit" at one of Los
Angeles's biggest department stores miraculously
survived. One afternoon last week, young Negroes
put the torch to the sign a testament to Negro
