Televised Enthusiasm
Saturday's exhibition of UK student cheering gave millions of people
the impression, via television, that

In fact, the amount of enthusiasm

the number of television cameras

possible solution to the University's
doldrums in some areas.

If being on television can cause a

If millions were watching, no professor would dare read his lecture

Last week the Students Party adopted a
platform which was written with one central theme in mind. The only things that
should go into the platform are those pro
posals which affect the vast majority of
UK students.
Our fall platform has just seven planks,
but we have set these seven idas aside as
our program for the coming months.
First, we feel the activities portion of

question. Over $1 1 of your registration fee
is involved here. We feel that items such
as 50 cents a semester for a post olfice
box (a majority of students don't use them
after the first year) and 50 cents to the
Alumni Association are quite questionable.
Our party has gone on record as strongly advocating a complete investigation of
these and "other appropriations from the

registration fee.

We

also favor a thorough study of the
good and bad points of the National Student Association..' We feel that objectivity
is the keynote here and you,. the students,

this organization.
The party also favors the establishment
of a group insurance plan for UK students. We specif ically pledge Ourselves to

The Students Party also endorses a
plan whereby UK students could obtain
dates in the student
seating for non-Usection at all athletic events. We endorse
the creation of an SC agency to deal with
all contests where judges are used. This
group will serve as arbitrators in case of

We also favor the creation of a Southeastern student government confeience to
