By HOB ANDERSON

Although not quite a first, the establishment of the
Spindletop Center places it among the very first of such
university-privat- e
industry research parks.
A similar center exists at Stanford University and
one is planned by the University of North Carolina.
The importance of the Spindletop project is indicated by the earmarking of approximately $1,300,000
in state funds for the enterprise before it even got
under way.
An indication of the magnitude of the undertaking
may be gotten from its board of directors. Including
Gov. Bert T. Combs, Lt. Oov. Wilson W. Wyatt, and
University President Frank O. Dickey, the list of directors reads like a "who's who" in Kentucky business.
President of the board of directors is Floyd I.
Fairman, Lexington, president of the Kentucky Utilities

Kentucky's Spindletop Research Center, to be located
on UK's Spindletop Farm, marks several firsts for both
the state and the University.
It was the first major move in the state's crash
program to lure new industry to Kentucky.
The center will be the first of its kind in
combining the resources of the University and
the state to establish a research park for private
industry in conjunction with a University-ru- n
center
that will contract to do research for both government
Ken-luck-

y,

and private industry.

Another first was the selection of a design for
the center's administration building by a competitive
process. It was the first major commission awarded
under the state's new policy of staging architectural
competitions to select designs for state buildings.

with the greatest possible speed,
all phases of its planning are deliberate and are being carried out
with the greatest care.
Not to be overlooked in the research center's planning is the
beauty of the 1,066-acr- e
farm.
With an eye toward the natural
attractiveness of the area, the
thrre-ma- n
jury that selected the
design for the center administration building chose a structure that
would complement the tract.
The winning design submitted by
Frankel, Curtis and Colemsn of

of local materials such as limestone. A lake on the site will be
utilized as a reflecting basin for
the three-stor- y
aluminum, glass,
and stone structure.
In citing the "clearly superior"
design of the building, the Jury of
John Noble Richards, Toledo, past
piesident of the American Institute of Architects; Dean Samuel
Hurst, Auburn University School
of Architecture; and Dean Ralph
Rapson, University of Minnesota
School of Architecture, stated:

Professor Attacks
Biblical Scholar
At UK Forum
Rudolph Bultmann, modern New

Testament scholar, has raised the
qoestion of the century: "If we
believe, what do we believe?"
This statement was made Tues
day night by Dr. D. Glenn Rose
professor of religion and coordin
ator of the Division of Humanities
at Transylvania College, at the
UK
Forum.
On the other hand. Dr. Rose
said, Bultman "makes too sharp
a separation between the historica:
Jesus and the personal Christ.'
The speaker said "in his limitation
of revelation to proclamation
Bultmann restricts himself to
preaching alone, and eliminates
the possibility of nature and his
tory in understanding the nature
of God."
Dr. Rose said Bultmann's aim in
his major work, "Theology of the
New Testament," was to demyth
ologize the New Testament. Bult
mann, he said, believed the preach
ing of the New Testament is con
tained in mythology, which he
defined as imaginary, such as
three-stor- y
universe, heaven, earth
and hell.
These myths now have to be
put into modern terms, because
myths are not accepted now.
