The Curriculum Study
mittee of the Commission on
Public Education, appointed by
the Kentucky Legislature in 1960,
found the library collections in
Kentucky schools unsatisfactory,
Mr. Leach said.
The committee placed particular stress on the need for more
and better materials for various
subject areas of the curriculum
and for assistance to librarians
in selection by specialists in subject areas.
The committee also found the
general selection aids usually
used by librarians inadequate
for selection of specialized materials, and magazine holdings were
especially weak, according to
Leach.
Mrs. Georgia R. Cole, assistant professor of library science,
will be director of the institute,
and Miss Margaret Roser, instructor in library science, will serve
as associate director.

Dr. Oswald Institutes Principle Changes

By ED MARTIN
Kernel Staff Writer
It has been over three semes-

ters since John
V.
Oswald
became the sixth president of
the University.
His plans and accomplishments would seem to take far
longer than the time he has been
here. He is attempting to bring
UK up to other leading state
universities, such as Ohio State,
North Carolina, Illinois, and
others.
The interest the president has
instilled in the University students can never be recorded, however, the changes that he has
made to improve the University
can be listed.
President Oswald said in a
message to the Board of Trustees
last June, "a university must
endeavor to make ideas a more
welcome element of the campus
atmosphere." This would seem
to be President Oswald's main
theme for the changes that he has
made his first three semesters here.
He has tried to expand the

University and allow more
research and thought from the
faculty and students.
Some of the principle changes that President Oswald has
made his first three semesters are:
An attempt to meet the
question of how to provide quality education in quantity.
The newly created and broadened
community colleges system is
part of the Oswald answer. The
number of community Colleges
throughout the state have increased to seven since Dr. Oswald
ever-prese-

took office.

Large steps toward improvement in the present system that
will allow the University to recruit and maintain a quality staff.
The new
pay system
will leave the faculty two months
to do research or other teaching
positions without cutting pay.
President Oswald has established easier lines of communication between president and
deans and president and students.

President Oswald has proposed a reorganization of some

IFC Action Is Positive Indication

System Is Responsibility Of All Greeks

Edit or s Nolc: Because of recent happenings within the University's Greek system and certain
sentiments voiced about this situation, this society page takes an
objective and realistic look at the
system. It also shows that any
problem we may have is the responsibility of the whole, not a
part of that whole.
Last week IFC ruled to outlaw treeing and close all fraternity parties except to members.
Some people say this was too
much action some say it was not
enough. This, however, is not the
important issue.
The action was the result of a
steadily worsening problem within the Greek system. And until
the problem is resolved, the
Greeks as a whole not just fraternities will be the targets for
further criticism.
Take first the recent IFC ban
on treeings.
Treeing evolved as a means of
celebrating an active getting
pinned. The woman now "owns"

the pin the physical asset that
shows the world she belongs to
e
someone. The
has lost
his association by giving iving
away the pin.
The treeing ceremony, then,
serves the same purpose for him
as the pin for the woman.
Panhellenic has, when called
upon for a similar decision toban
treeing, avoided the issue by
the motion for further debate. In effect, then, they have
said, "we have no part in the
tradition and the decision cannot
and should not be ours."
But the decision is, at least
in part, the responsibility of the
women for to whom do the men
become pinned if it is not women?
The Greek system is a unique
organization. Unique in that it
even attempts to form a union of
individuals. This is to be commended in that it has shown
great success.
Why, then, all the criticism?
Is it that the unity exists only
superficially? That the idea of the
pin-mat-

fraternal spirit is mere verbalizing
for the sole purpose of enhancing

and perpetuating "The Image?"
Unquestionably the idea of
image is important. We have all
become image conscious to the
extent that the individual his
thoughts and ideas have become
submerged. We have evolved to a
generation of students whose purpose is, somehow, just out of
reach.
But the purpose is there. This
cannot be denied to the Greeks
or to any group or individual.
The question, then, is why and
how the purpose has been overshadowed.
It has been said that we have
made no commitment and we
have agreed. But the concept of
commitment has itself been left
obscured in vague generalization;
again, just out of reach.
As Greeks it seems that it has
fallen to us todefine commitment
not only for ourselves but for
the entire student community.
The idea of commitment is

Independents Share 'Burden9
University students not associated or affiliated with sororities
and fraternities also have responsibilities to the Greek system.
Fraternities no longer require
membership in their chapters as a
prerequisite for enjoying the benefits of the Greek social life. The
men throw their doors wide open
to members and guests alike
and even a few who are not guests
and require only a handshake or
two and an "I know so and so "
to welcome one and all to their
functions.
Says one UK fraternity alumnus: "If I were entering UK right
now, I wouldn't think of joining
a fraternity.
"I would get myself an apartment, make friends with some
fraternity men from four or five
good groups and invite them
over for a party or two. . .I'd have
it made from then on."
If the fraternities are nice
enough to share the fun and
laughs (and one group even opened it's cultural program to all
students of the University), it
seem the least we can do is not
abuse the privilege.
Because we, as individuals,
may not have to share the responsibility which results from
membership in an organized
group, in the same sense we must,

not hinder that
group's commitment.
And men are not the only ones
who enjoy the privileges of fraternities. Greek men have never
limited themselves to dating sorority girls.
What the ladies will abide, the
men will provide. As long as a
woman will date a fellow so that
she may return to her dormitory
and tell her roommate about her
awful, "gross" date and then go

Lexington,.

As independents we have a
certain pride in our individualism. If we don't like something,
or have no interest in it, we have
nothing to do with it. But if we
become involved in something,
we have the responsibility of the
individual to complete it.
And this applies to the fraternity system. If we take advantage of the assets of the Greek
system, we also commit ourselves,
just like a part of that system, to
responsibility for its success or
failure.

basically an individual one,
though not entirely free from application to the Creek system;
and, for our present purpose can
only be applied to the problems
at hand.
Other examples which bring
the responsibility to bear on the
women are "wild parties."
Clearly, parties would not exist if men did not ask women as
dates. A social event without
women is not a party it is not
even a social event!
Along these lines, women have
complained of "grossness" on the
part of some fraternity members
. . .but that is all they have done.
Some, perhaps, have gone a step
further and left the party early,
vowing never to return, but many
come back the next week.
By returning or not taking
some positive action, they were
condoning, if not advocating the
activity they had originally decried.
Certainly, Panhellenic is not
exclusively responsible, but they
are the "other half of the Greek
system, and if change is necessary
it must come from within, lest
the system be completely destroyed from without.
The examples are many, the
point obvious.

If the Creek system is to remain it must accept the responsibility for an individual member's action.
As a unified body. . .not the
Interfratcrnity Council on one
side, and the "uninvolved" Panhellenic on the other. ..the Creek
system must acknowledge that
the whole can be nothing more
than the sum of all its parts; that
to function strongly and effectively the "burden of guilt" must be
shared before it can be conquered.

NEW YORK (AP)
In preparing the score for "Bajour,"
Broadway's new show about
gypsies, composer Walter Marks
discovered that there's no such

thing as "gypsy music."
"Gypsies in different parts of
the world have different kinds
of music," he reports, "each
with its own beat, rhythm and
emotional feeling."
Turkish gypsies, Marks found,
are strong for Arabic melodies.
The ones in this country improvise on American tunes, with
"Amapola" being a particular
favorite.

War On Poverty
At last, with the "War On Poverty," we are focusing attention
on the great paradox: the existence of the poor among the af-

For every large city has its
slums there's Irish Town in Lexington, the West end of Louisville, and the West Side in Manhattan. It can be argued that poor

"War on Poverty" legislation, aimed at the rehabilitation of our slums
areas and, more important, of our
slum dwellers. We need low-cohousing in abundance; we need
play areas for children and a
