Trustees restrict cafeterias
to students, faculty, guests
expected enrollment this fall, all University cafeterias, now open
to the public, will be restricted to students,
faculty members, and official guests. The action
was decided on at last week's meeting of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees.
meetings and
Participants in campus-basevisitors to patients in the University Hospital will
be considered guests of the University, according
to Vice President for Business Affairs Robert E.
Kerley, who presented the new plans to the committee, along with UK President John VV. Oswald.
Mr. Kerley noted that the 850 students to be
housed in Cooperstown will have to be fed in the
Student Center Cafeteria, since Donovan and
Blazer cafeterias are currently operating at "about
twice the designed capacity."
When asked how cafeteria staff members would
identify authorized customers, Mr. Kerley answer
ed that "eventually we hope to have an identification card" but for the present no definite guidelines have been worked out.
Mr. Kerley and Dr. Oswald held little hope
that the dining shortage would be solved in the
near future. The expanding enrollment will increase to about 17,800 students on the main campus by 1970, and the dining facilities in the proposed dormitory complex will just take care of
students living there, Mr. Kerley said.
Another critical problem is the staffing of the
dining units with trained personnel. Some of the
e
seven days a week for
units are working
16 hours a day, he noted. Closing the facilities
to the public may give some immediate relief to
at least this phase of the problem.
Mr. Kerley said that "we hope to be able to
accommodate first and foremost the students.
That goes for their families, too, who will be considered University guests when they visit them
during the school year."

The Executive Committee also accepted a
statement of policies and procedures that will be
applied to contracts, grants, and gifts from sources
outside the University intended for the support of
research and training.
Dr. Raymond C. Bard, assistant vice president
for research development, told the committee that
until now there have been no written procedures
and no specific methods of advising the faculty
on these matters.
The University of Kentucky Research Foundation, of which Dr. Bard is executive director, is
designated as the administering organization for
all contracts, gifts, and grants, called simply
"agreements." The foundation is also the official
solicitor of funds.
Although there is "nothing really novel" in this
new setup, Dr. Bard said, the new rules for proposal review should prove of key importance and
are intended to insure that each research project
is one in which the University is willing and able
to become engaged.
Dr. Bard emphasized that this was simply a
preliminary consideration of a most complex subject. President Oswald said that it was "an extremely significant first step (which) really for
the first time pulls together all the policy in this
area.
In other action the Executive Committee selected Dr. Hubert P. Henderson, presently associate
professor of music at the University of Maryland,
as new chairman of the Department of Music,
succeeding Dr. Bryce Jordan, who has been chairman since January, 1964.
Dr. Jordan has resigned his position effective
Aug. 1 to become chairman qf the Department of
Music at the University of Texas in Austin.
Dr. Henderson holds three degrees from the
University of North Carolina, including a Ph.D.
in musicology.

mementos of Stevenson
Former Lieutenant Governor Wilson W. Wyatt , who managed
Adlai Stevenson's 1952 campaign for the presidency, delivered the
principal eulogy to the late U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations
Tuesday night.
Dr. A. D. Kirwan, dean of the Graduate School, presided.
In addition to the eulogy, the program included a vocal solo by
Mrs. Kay Martin, an organ prelude and postlude by Prof. Arnold
Blackburn of the Department of Music, and invocation and benediction by Dr. W. A. Welsh, president of the College of the College of the Bible.
Letters, telegrams, and pictures concerning Adlai Stevenson,
which are in the University's Alben W. Barkley collection, are
now on display in the Barkley Room in the Margaret I. King
Library.
Stevenson and Barkley were cousins, and the relationship is
noted frequently in Barkley's autobiography, "That Reminds Me."
Among items in the collection is a copy of a telegram from
Barkley to Stevenson, dated April 16, 1952, after Stevenson had
announced his withdrawal from the race of Democratic presidential
hopefuls.
A later note from Stevenson to Barkley after the Vice President
had withdrawn from the race, reads, "It is a noble statement
which perhaps no one else in our country could write. Charity,
candor, and courage are the firm rock on which you've stood for
a long time. And you have again made the rock more visable to
many lesser men, this me included."
A postscript to the letter reads, "But you have made it very
hard for me! ! !"
Other items include: a letter from Stevenson to Barkley dated
Aug. 15, 1952, thanking the latter for campaigning for Stevenson
in Illinois. "It was not alone the magnificent speech, which always
seem to stir and elevate us, but the humor and happiness that
feel much the better about my
you and Jane seem to radiate.
wish I was endowed with a meager
ordeal for your visit.
only
share of your incredible talents and wisdom and could face it
with greater serenity."
There is also a copy of an invitation to a luncheon the Barkleys
Padu-cagave for Stevenson and companions at the Barkley home in
"The Angles," on Sept. 27, 1952. Afterward they Hew to
Louisville for the opening of Stevenson's Kentucky campaign.
A copy of a telegram from Portland, Ore., dated April 30, 1956,
from Stevenson to Mrs. Barkley after Barkley's death states, "1 am
and so is all of Oregon. He died as he lived, erect,
facing forward, and saying what he believed with vigor, artistry,
and dignity. I like to think that he would have preferred to die
just that way and enriching the spirits of young people. My love
and sympathy to you, Dear Jane."
There is also an 1S91 letter from Stevenson's grandfather, Adlai
a former Vice President of the United
Lvving Stevenson,
and a native of Kentucky, to Thomas Speed, Louisville,
States,
thanking him for a copy of a book, "The Political Club."
