IBM Machine Not Cause

Of Preclassification Woe

Students having problems In
dropping and adding classes cannot blame a breakdown in the Administration Building's IBM machines.
Mr. David A. Sheets, director of
the Office of Machine Statistics,
said yesterday reports that late
registrants were bing held up by
malfunctioning
IBM machines
were false.
One machine is torn down for
repairs, Mr. Sheets said, but it was
not being used to process class
cards. No other machine trouble
has been experienced since the
Sunday before registration started,
he added.
Mr. Sheets said students seeing
n
machine might
the
have assumed it was the reason
cards were
their permlt-to-enro- ll
not immediately available.
Approximately 1,400 classes were
added by students yesterday, Mr.
torn-dow-

Armstrong Concert
Tickets for the Louis Armstrong Concert, Friday, Feb. 19
will be on sale through Friday
in the Student Union ticket booth
from 11:30 a.m. to

1

p.m.

Sheets stated, raising the number
of classes added since last Wednesday to more than 3.000. During
that time the IBM Office processed
at least 500 class additions a day.

Dean of Admissions and Registrar Charles F. Elton yesterday
said one of the biggest mistakes
made by his office in handling late
registrants was in making out their
fees on IBM machines.
The machines had to be set up
many different times to process the
many different totals being charged. IBM machines operate more
efficiently when a number of cards
with the same
totals are run
through them.
Dr. Elton said late registrants
will be given fee slips filled out by
hand in future registrations.
Many other . problems in the
dropping and adding of classes are
due to causes cited previously by
Dr. Elton. Many students have
been handing in drop-ad- d
cards
with their names omitted or class
names improperly noted.
Home Economics 53 was a frequent cause of trouble as students
almost universally listed it as
"courtship and marriage." IBM Office workers would then have to

look up courtship and marriage in
the schedule book to find out

what class card to pull.
1 1 le g i b 1 e
handwriting was
another problem. This, coupled
with improperly listed classes,
forced secretaries to guess with
sometimes disasterous results.
The most notable example of
this was experienced when Army
Cadet Col. Frank Schollett merely listed "ROTC" on his schedule
card.
A clerical worker forced to guess
whether Schollett wanted Air
Science or Military Science, guessed wrong and Schollett ended up
in the Air Force.

ID Cards
Full time students who have
not received their ID cards for
the second semester should report to the University Photographer's office on the second
floor of the Journalism Building during office hours Friday.
At that time they may pick
up their ID cards if their picture
has been made previously, or
have their pictures made for new
ID cards.

Voting Trend Points To Law School Rex
By MIKE FEARING
Who'll be rex of the Mardi Gras
Saturday night? Who'll reign over
UK's "Fat Tuesday" at the 13th
annual Mardi Gras?
In three weeks the actual Mardi
Gras will be celebrated in New
Orleans with rex as ruler. "Fat
Tuesday or Mardi Gras is he last
big fling before Lent begins at 12

midnight.
Early Tuesday morning Canal
Street, the widest street in the
world, becomes so choked with
merrymakers celebrating and
awaiting the appearance of the
Kiev.e cf Rtx," or his parade, no
one is able to move.
The ie of the New OrK'aus

Mardi Gras is usually a prominent
business man of the city chosen by
his "Krewe."
UK's rex Is the most popular
Instructor on campus, and his
prominence is determined by the

students.

Who will he be? For the last
two days the students have been
filling the ballot box with their
selections. It will be announced
Friday. In the meantime there
has been many speculation as to
his Identity.
Since 1949 and the second Newman C lub sponsored Mardi iirn.
II rexes have rrignrd, seveu of
which are still ott cainpui.
-

Looking back over a period of
years a fate pattern is revealed
which allows a prediction of not
exactly who the rex of the 1960
Mardi Gras will be, but a prediction that can pin down his station
and perhaps his department.
A flash back over a period of
12 years shows a pattern that a
betting man might place odds on.
First, the students have selected,
down through the years, men who
hold Ph.D.'s. It can then be
wagered that this year's rex will
hold a doctorate.
Second, a look over the past
Kernels reveals two rexes were
cho.-efrom the History Depart
13

ment, two from the College of
Commerce, two from the English
Department, two from the Geography Department, and one each
from the Law School, Physical
Education Department, and the
Hygiene Department.
Since the facts show that the
four departments out of eight have
repeated themselves and speculating on the law of "lady luck," it
is predicted that the rex will
come from the Law School. Physical Education Department, or the
Hygiene Department.
Narrowing the field down and
sticking the neck out. the Law
School will most likely be the
btUool representing the rex. Why?

Because the Law School seems to
be the most organized group on
campus.
This year's Mardi Gras will
honor the past kings who are still
on campus. .They are Dr. Rhea
Taylor of the" History Department,
who is the only professor to be
selected rex twice; Dr. Robson D.
Mclntyre and Dr. Virgil Christian
Jr., both of the College of Commerce.
Dr. Ben H. Black of the Department of English, Dr. W. Brooks
Hamilton of the Hygiene Department, Dr. Charles Hockensmith of
the Physical Education Department, and Dr. Roy Morlan of the
Law College.

"The Idea of Continental Union1'
by Donald F. Warner covers the

This book Is the 1959 winner of
the Mississippi Valley Historical
Association's American Studies
Award given by the association,
and will be followed by a similar
award annually.
The t'niverlty Press has a contract to publish the first five of
these award winners.
"Blazer and Ashland Oil" by
Joseph L. Massie, associate professor of economics at UK, is a biography of Mr. Blazer and of the
Ashland Oil Co. Massie covers the
fast growth of this company,
which has amazed many economists and business experts.
"Five French Baroque Masses"
by Dr. Almonte C. Howell contains
three previously unpublished Mass

versets with two other rare organ
Masses, all from the 17th Century.
Dr. Howell, a music professor at
IK, Introduces the versets with
an essay.
The University Press published
four works last semester, including
the "Bluegrass Craftsman" and
the first of ten volumes of "The
Papers of Henry Clay."
Miss Elizabeth Pearce, sales and
promotion manager of the University Press, explained the press'
purpose as the publishing of
"scholarly works which add something to various fields."
The press makes possible many
informative works which otherwise would never appear in print.
Commercial presses are seldom
able to print such books because
of the relatively small circulation
and profit.
There are approximately 50 university presses In this country, all
belonging to the Association of
American University Presses with
headquarters in New York City.
An annual convention is held to
discuss policies. The association
operates as a beneficial aid to the
individual presses.
The Kentucky Press relies chief

ly upon direct mail advertisement
for book circulation, according to
Miss Pearce.
It does advertise in some periodicals, such as the "Saturday Review," the "American Scholar,"
and "Publisher's Weekly." The
press has two export agents, making worldwide circulation possible.
According to Miss Pearce, 5,500
books were sold by the University
Press in 1958, with 400 of these
going abroad. Last year was much
better, Miss Pearce said, but figures for the year are unavailable
at present.
The main staff of the University
Press are Bruce F. Denbo, director; Kenneth W. Elliott, editor and
production manager; Elizabeth
Pearce, sales and promotion manager; Evalin Douglas, assistant
editor; and Robert Uerndon, art
editor.
The press employs one fulltlme
persons In the
and two part-tim- e
shipping and Invoicing department. The Kernel press prints the
books, which are sent to a firm In
.
Cincinnati for binding.
Kenneth Elliott said an average
of one year elapses between the

receiving of a manuscript and the
publishing of the book.
Approximately three months of
this time is spent in the editing.
The author takes about three additional months for revisions and
the final six months are required
for the actual printing and
binding.

KOTC

-(l

Repulsive Compulsion
A move to abolish compulsory
KOTC, initiated i:i colleges and universities throughout the nation, has
reached its peak in the current wave
of pacifism in the larger midwestern
universities. Decisions on whether to
terminate compulsory KOTC in favor
of the voluntary basis will be reached
soon at Michigan State, Ohio State,
Wisconsin, and the University of
California, the largest university in

the Army hopes to acquire 1 1.000 officers through the ROTC program. It
depends heavily on this source for
officer manpower, whereas the Navy
and Air Force expect only 4,000 and
3,000 respectively, from ROTC programs.
If ROTC is placed on a voluntary
basis, then will there be an adequate
number of commsisioned graduates
to meet the defense officer manpower

the nation with 40,(XX) students.
Under the 1SG2 law setting up the

demands? That question is disturbing
many top military officials. A Michigan State official estimates ROTC
enrollment would thus drop 20 percent. And, MIT, which inaugurated
voluntary officer training in its 193S
fall term, reported enrollment dropped
off to about
of the present

college system, all land-graschools were required to offer
courses in military training. However,
the participating schools are now at
liberty to set up their own KOTC
program on either a compulsory or
voluntary basis. As a tradition, land-graschools have set up their mililand-gran-

schools
At present three land-graoffer voluntary ROTC Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, Minnesota,
and Utah State out of 68 land-grainstitutions. Top military men, especially those in the Army, are worried that the abolition of compulsory
ROTC in some schools may ignite
a widespread repugnance against
compulsory ROTC in the larger land-grant

level.
But even with the decrease, it is
logical that students taking ROTC
on their own initiative probably have

strong inclinations toward advanced
training. This being the case, they
will undergo better training with
more attention, smaller classes, and
more interest. The wasted expense
and effort on those forced to enroll
would be erased.
The case against compulsory ROTC
also is strengthened by moral reasons.
It is difficult for a student to have his
heart in a subject which neither provides him representative military
training nor a credit on his military
record. The current attitude toward
basic ROTC at the University is that
it is to be tolerated, much like one
would tolerate an offensive person
because of his ignorance. Required
ROTC merely serves to taint the organization with indifference and with
silent insubordination.
We would not go so far as to call
basic ROTC a "farce," as many UK
students tend to do. The connotation
that the word "farce" has toward the
humorous vein would eliminate us,
because compulsory ROTC is by no
means something to be passed off
gaily.

It would not discredit the University if it were to evaluate its ROTC
program, much in the same manner
that the midwestern universities have
done. It should not distress the UK
ROTC unit to submit itself to objective scrutiny, nor should it shrink
in trepidation from a critical analysis.
The mere fact the ROTC exists to
officers does not give
it the sanction of infallibility and the
blessing of the defense-minde- d
public. Compulsory ROTC, however, does
provide the iron hand of "must" to
college students who more oftn are
interested in other things besides
keeping in step to discordant cadences. The element of choice must
be offered or else the armed forces
should allow basic ROTC to count
on a student's military record.
