Wear a dagger instead, or, for informal occasions, a Howie knife.
(Speaking of Howie knives, I wonder how many of you know
what a great debt this country indeed, the whole world
to the West Point class of 1830? You all know, of course, that Colonel
James Howie of the Class of 18."16 invented the Howie knife, but d
you know of the many other important contributions to eutlery

for example, that Colonel Harry Clasp invented the Clasp knife?

Colonel Harry

By a curious coincidence, every member of the graduating clas

Bit by bit I sold off my belongings to pursue this insane courtship-fi- rst
my books, then my clothes, intil finally I was left with nothing
to wear but a "suit." One night I came calling for her in this garment.
"What is that!" she gasped, her lip curling in horror.
"That is a 'suit'," I mumbled, averting my eyes.
"Well, I can't be seen around campus with you in that," said she.
"Please, Harry," I begged. "It's all I've got."

Before coming to UK in 1949 he taught for 12 vears at the University of Indiana.
This year's Founders Day program, written and narrated by Dr.
Jansen. will place Kentucky in relation to American folk music.
Kentucky is a stronghold of British folklore.. The ancestry of eastern Kentuckians is nearly pure Anglo-SaxoBecause of the rugged
geography, very few immigrants settled in the mountains after the
original pioneers. wh6 were overwhelmingly English, crossed through
Cumberland Gap.
The music scale used in the mountains is based on stringed instruments rather than the piano. Kentucky is the last place in the western
world that this type of scale can be heard.
"
The selections to be presented at the program are primarily ballads
or white spirituals. The theme of this year's Founders Dav will salute
two University graduates, Tom Scott and Jean Ritchie. Both Scott and
Miss Ritchie are leaders in the field of folk music.
A UK commerce student and ballad singer, Lucien Rouse, is a late
addition to the program. Rouse will play background music on a guitar
during Dr. Jansen's narration.
Five Kentuckians who are tlosely connected with local folk musle
will be guests at the program. They include Buel Kazee, the first Kentucky folk singer to receive national recognition; composers John Jacob
Niles and Lewis Henry Horton, who is now connected with Transylvania
College; Pleaz Mobley, ballad singer from Manchester; and John Lair,

that there is a wonderful, inviting temptation

Every prof, staff memlcr, and student
w ith access to a car feels that it is his
right to have a parking place. The
faculty members, theoretically bound to
parking rules, ignore them as glibly as Superman would ignore Mighty Mouse. Their
credits can't be withheld, so they aren't too
worried about a nasty lecture from the dean
of men or the Judiciary Committee.
God-give- n

President Donovan and the Hoard of Trustees are concerned with this problem. They
have decided, wisely, that there is no reason
w hy a healthy, able young man or woman,
living in Lexington, needs a car for the first'
two years. Dr. Donovan and the Hoard are
right. There isn't any place in Lexington
which can't be reached. easily and within a
few minutes by most of the students here.
Furthermore, there isn't a need for a car
solely for social activities. If the uppcrclass-meand upperclasswomen are driving,
and sophomore with a
friend is going to find his transportation
"problem" solved particularly where the social life is concerned.

On the other hand, stall members work
for the University and take the attitude that,
as long as they arc. employed here, they have
a n'ght to park here. The student, il he's hon-.cswill admit tliat he has to drive to school
because he can't get up fifteen minutes
earlier to walk several hundred yards.

We'd like to see the Hoard of Trustees
draw up a rule restricting cars to uppercJLiss- inen in the near future. If the prospect of
doing without the luxury of a car is too
much for the mental, physical, and moral
fortitude of the horsepower addicts, let them
go to another school. There are plenty of
people in Kentucky who can fill their places.

We aren't taking the ivory tower viewpoint
that cars are evi in that they distract a student from his studies. We're taking the attitude that there are too many immature people entering the University with the idea that

This type of thinking is just as dangerous
