the announcement that eight resected members of the Arts and

Kppp's usual outstanding performance was once more displayed, this year under the added deficit of an inexperienced

that a Navy patrol bomber had
sighted Carpenter floating on a
life raft a thousand miles southeast of Cape Canavaral, Fla. Instead of the planned 800 miles.
The Coast Guard at the Virgin
Islands said he came down off

29 minutes north latitude and 64
minute west

Why the capsule overshot the
planned Impact area had yet to
be explained officially, but It set
off a fantastic flurry of grim activity in which ships were ordered
to turn at flunk speed and race for
the area indicated by radar.
It appeared that a failure of the
retrorockets to fire automatically
as scheduled may have been re-- 1
sponsible for the distant over-- 1
shooting of the landing target.
The astronaut monitors were
heard to give a countdown for
the rocket firing at 12:17 p.m.
Apparently the rockets did not
fire.
There was another short count-- j
down, and the rockets apparently)
were fired manually by Carpenter,
The time interval between the'
two attempts was about 15 sec-- 1

that each second of delay in firing
the rockets would result in some
five miles of override of the target
area.
Navy Hurricane Hunter planes
hurtled off the runways at Antigua
in the British West Indies.
Soon after sighting the astronaut in the water, a Navy Neptune patrol bomber swung overhead and parachuted the three
medical men into the water.

Students Complain
Of Nausea, Fever
The University Health Service reports that an unusually
large numlxT of students have come to the infirmary complaining of nausea and fever. Most of the ill students have recently
been to either Lake Ilerrington or Clay's Ferry.

Dr. R. K. Novack, director of
the Health Service, said that the
an inillness is gastric-enteriti- s,
flammation of the lining of the
stomach and intestines.
A number of Transylvania students have also had gastro-enter-iti- s.
Most of them had beer at
Lake Herrington.
"Willie the exact cause of the
illness is not yet known, it is
reasonable to suspect food and
beverages," he said.

torial, must go back more than nine
months.
Upon entering UK four years ago,
we were somewhat disturbed by the
attitude of a lame majority of University students. To say specifically
what type of attitude this was would
be a difficult job, indeed. It could
best be expressed, we imagine, by
the word "juvenile." It was, for the
most part, an attitude of unconcern
and dislike for anything remotely
connected with UK's purpose, program, and procedures.
Included in this attitude was criticism for such things as difficult as- -

parting shot at some thing or some

with maudlin drival? Call it what you
like, here it is:
liather than strike off in some
unknown direction in an attempt to

school system get in such a predicament in the first place and let it remain so.
A county that prides itself on its
educational opportunities from the
college level on down cannot let this
sort of thing happen.
Many of our graduating seniors
would be glad to settle in Fayette
County to teach, but the salaries are
too attractive elsewhere. Teaching)
the double sessions next year will add
burdens to the teachers, parents, and
most of all . . . the students.

Fayette County is faced with a
problem that directly affects most
students and faculty members living
in Lexington and indirectly affects
all other University personnel. We
would like to urge all faculty members and students who are qualified
to vote in Fayette County to cast
their ballot in favor of the proposed
school referendum.
Fayette County is particularly
beset with the woes which plague
school systems all over the nation.
What's the problem? Not enough
school rooms; not enough teachiiS;
not enough money; too many students; and public apathy.
Lafayette High School will begin
double sessions next fall and will lose
its accreditation from the Southern
Association of Secondary Schools and
Colleges. The same fate seems apparent for Bryan Station.
There are now approximately
16,(X)0 students in the Fayette system. This is an increase of about
1(),0(X) in 10 years. In five more years
there w ill be 2(),(K)() students. At present there are no funds available to
build the classrooms to house them
and hire the estimated 200 teachers
who w ill be needed.
At present there are needed three
elementary schools, two junior high
schools, and one senior high school.
These are needed right now, not a
month from now or a year from now,
but right now!
We do not believe the people of
this county, somotimes called the
"Athens of the West" would let their

THE REV. TOM FOR NASI

Methodist Student Chaplain
In the book of Proverbs, there
stateare many
ments. One of these is, "we spend
our years as a tale that is told!" With
this comes the realization of Shakespeare's quote, "all the world's a stage
and we the actors." It is often difficult for us to imagine our lives as an
open book or a story being told
difficult and disturbing!
True, we do spend our years, and
in v arious ways. First, we can play the
spendthrift and waste all that we
thought-provokin-

g

Secondly, we can play
the miser and hoard the talent, promise, and personality within, living
completely for ourselves, only to find
ultimately that no man can live within himself only exist. Last of all, we
can be stewards of that which Cod
has given by sharing in our spending
and by making our lives a blessing
not only to ourselves but to others.
We spend our lives and it is our
decision as to the role we play,
whether it be spendthrift, miser, or
steward.

THE READERS' FORUM
Offrr Commendation
To The Fditor:
Too often, the campus fails to
accord due praise for a job well clone.
The Kernel staff should be commended for its outstanding job in
factual and objective reporting.

Special commendation should be
accorded editor Fd Van Hook, whose
mature and responsible leadership has
guided the Kernel to a position of
prominence in student affairs.
