If fragrance is only a sometime
thing with you, then you'll never
make it as a great beauty.
Even in the past, medieval maidens, dark age damsels and ancient
Eygptian eyefuls knew that frag
rance is a fashion accent, a treatment for the ego, a frame for
an aura of delight.
And ever since Cleopatra, who
absolutely wallowed in scented oils
and baths, smart beauties have
mown inai men associate irag- lance with irresistible women.

ROCHESTER, N. Y. (Pi Mr.
and Mis. William H. Rambert
celebrated their golden wedding
anniversary here with the same
cast that helped them celebrate
their 1911 wedding.
Present were the ckreyman who
married them, plus the bridesmaid,
the best man, two flower girls, and
two ushers.
Rambert is now 77. His wife is
69. The clergyman, the Rev. William Trebert. is 87.

So wrap yourself in fragrance.
Ah, but which of the hundreds of
exotic sounding potions?
When you'ie fragrance shopping,
r.ever try more than two at a time.
After that, no nose knows and
confusion results. The experts call
it "olfactory fatigue." To pet the
true fragrances, do let the alcohol
dry before you sniff.
And how much of the magic potion should be used? Fragrance is
meant to be used generously with- in the bounds of good taste. You
should be able to catch a whiff
once in a while yourself.
Like
your ho.stiik, fragrance!
should be renewed occasionally.'

Congress.
Garryl Sipple has resigned from
the congress, leaving the student government organization without a president. As much as we would like to
have seen Sipple return to UK this
year to provide continuity for the
congress program, we feel that those
who remain are fully capable of
carrying the load.
Student Congress got off to a good
start last semester. Fighting for its
life, SC was forced to contend with
student apathy and a complexity of
problems that probably would have
stalled a really disinterested group of
representatives dead in its tracks.
This, however, was not the case.
Sipple and his fellow officers fought
hard to maintain the type of leadership so badly needed for a fledging
student organization.
Working up
from the foundation which Sipple was
is an

able to establish, the other officers
should be able to provide the needed
continuity for the congress' program.
We wish them much success in their
endeavor.
These students, however, will not
be able to make Student Congress an
even stronger student organization
without the full support of their fellow representatives, the entire student
body, and the administration. Whether we want an active, meaningful
Student Congress depends on all of
us. We cannot expect to elect other
students to these positions and leave
the job entirely to them.
Indeed, Student Congress did not
revcome up with any
olutionary ideas last year. It did
have organization problems, we are
agreed, but in time these matters will
be overcome. Constant criticism of
SC leadership will not help solve any
of the problems facing the congress
and its officers, but, a little more help
and a little less criticism will go a
long way toward bringing about a
really effective Student Congress at
UK.

The Big Sacrifice

Secretary of the Interior Stewart
Udall has done an almost unheard of
thing in politics. Discovering that his
department still has on hand a great
many descriptive pamphlets bearing
the name of his predecessor, Republican Fred A. Seaton, Mr. Udall has
decided not to replace them with
pamphlets bearing his own name but
to distribute them anyway.
The savings to the taxpayers
through this act of
will come to around $130,000.
Udall may have done the
shrewd thing, politically, after all. He

of free publicity
for his deed perhaps as much or more
than he would have received in having his name on all those pamphlets.
But whatever the reasoning behind his move, he deserves a hand.
Not only lias he saved us all money
but he may also have started a trend.
He has brought nearer, we like to
think, that glorious day when all governmental documents will leave the
public completely in the dark as to
the identity of the politician whose
agency is responsible for their publication and distribution. The Boston

The Pentagon Muzzle

it is a strange tlnng that in a
country in which the military element
has always been strictly subordinated
to civilian control, a member of the
Senate should be urging that generals
be allowed to express their political
opinions. Yet that is the spectacle
presented at the sessions of the Senate Armed Services Committee, where
Sen. Thurmond, of South Carolina,
has been questioning Secretary of Defense McNamara in pursuance of his
call for an investigation of the alleged
"muzzling" of the generals by the
Pentagon. It is seriously to be feared
that Mr. Thurmond's aim is not to
unleash the tongues of the military in
general, but to get, contrary to all
our national tradition, a military outlet for the political doctrines of a
particular group.
The group favored by the South
Carolina senator happens to be on
the extreme right. Indeed, its views
are sometimes linked with those of
the John Birch Society, whose founder has called even former President

The tradition against allowing generals to advocate particular political
views would be just as strong, however, if the views in question were
those of the extreme left or even those
of the middle of the road along which
the great majority of Americans
travel.
This limitation certainly extends to
the discussion of such matters as electoral preferences as between parties
and candidates. For example, the case
of Maj. Cen. Edwin A. Walker, whose
name has been much in the prints.
It is also essential that the military avoid advocating a particular foreign policy or a particular defense
program. These are matters for decision by the President and Congress.
Soldiers should be free to state their
views to their superiors and to legislative committees, but public advocacy is a different affair and should
le banned. The Evening Sun, Baltimore.

THE READERS' FORUM
Hauler KrlmLrs Editor
To The Editor:
Your editorial oil the deplorable
UK housing situation, alter a promising beginning, soon began to lose
direction and a sense of cause. It
droned on in a platitudinous manner
to its pointless conclusion about the
values of patience and understanding.
This left the reader wondering why
you had bothered.
That the editor does not hold a
difference of opinion with the dean's
office is noteworthy and I am not
happy to hear of it. At the same time
I can sympathize with the editor in
his desire to olltnd no one or at
least as few as possible. However,
I hope that the editor soon can improve on his overly timid editorial
style. After all, I too am in favor of
motherhood, sympathy, understanding, patience, and all, but I don't
go spreading it about with a butter
knife.

Adjusting To Environ

To The Editor:
Sitting here in the Grill, sipping
a cup of coffee, the ills of the world
seem readily apparent. A discussion
of the plight of the girls in the old
AGH house gives us a bad taste in
our mouths. When probably
of the world's population
would jump at the chance to sleep
in an "army bunk" and bathe in a
"mouldy shower," our sturdy female
types are sobbing in their teacups.
These members of the free world
and defenders of our Republic seem
to be so occupied with their temporary hardships that they are on the
verge of being overcome by an attack of the vapors. Is this the state
of things in the leading nation of the
free world, or just a product of, as a
past critic put it, UK's super womb
atmosphere?
In these troubled times, people do
seem to be uniting, or banding together, but they are in a big circle
standing shoulder to shoulder, "facing the center of the circle," with their
backs to the world. The cry "give
us pretty rooms and thick mattresses"
is heard all over; even in the Kernel.
Nationally, the shoulders hunch more
tightly together to prolong
security. Who is to maintain this
