"In order io be ready when the

Dr. Wellington It. Stewart, head

After a student's blood has been

some of these students will be

This press was stored In Vienna, Austria In 1935 and remained
there until 195(5. when it was

with a fund given to it for this
purpose.
The press is in excellent condition, and during the Lincoln
Year, a broadside of the Gettysburg Address was printed on it
and sent to other libraries.
Space is temporarily reserved
for the press in the library addition which is being constructed.
Mrs. Hammer hopes a bibliographical press can be set up where
students in departments such as
journalism, English, library science, and art can leain the early
mechanics of printing.

IFC's Ambitious Officers
We were heartened recently to
learn the Interfratemity Council has
a new corps of officers. Fraternities
need a smooth-runninstrong central organization to help them forward their purpose. These new officers should make the IFC more
progressive and thus more useful to
UK's 19 fraternities.
Fraternities are intended to bring
men students together in a common
bond. They live together, work together, and participate together in
social activities. Bill Cooper, new IFC
president, realizes this intention and
hopes to establish a "friendlier relationship" among the Greek social
organizations. He hopes IFC can act
as a means to establish rapport among
the organizations instead of apathy
which has been prevalent in the past.
In recent years, however, this
apathy has subsided to mere cajoling, resulting in stealing each others'
badges, front doors, and cannons. Apparently this is because of more ma- -

ture guidance on the part of IFC
leaders. There is hope this new slate
of officers will fulfill an even greater
service.
Mr. Cooper has indicated an intention to increase the number of men
pledging fraternities by stimulating
greater interest in the groups. He
feels that certain scholastic standards
should be supported by fraternities.
In light of the recent fraternity probation incident, Mr. Cooper hopes to
set up a scholarship board to review
midterm grades to eliminate the need
for the probationary measure resulting from the Faculty ruling.
Apparently Mr. Cooper plans, at
this early stage, to strengthen the
weaker areas of the fraternity system.
This means IFC will have to be a
smoothly coordinated,
efficiently managed organization. We
feel Mr. Cooper and his subordinates
are qualified to make IFC the purposeful organization he has forseen.

Campus Parable
By

THE REV. ELMER MOORE
Newman Club Chaplain

Religious maturity must be related
to the intellectual, physical, and emotional progress. Without rejecting or
even doubting the tradition of religious faith brought from early years
at home, students must learn to objectively investigate divine revelation
and make an attempt to synthesize
their religious tradition, their newly

developed intellectual achievements
at the University, and their present
investigations of religious truth.
Rejection of religious tradition already acquired before this synthesis
is attempted is as puerile as the rejection of the previously acquired skill
in the multiplication tables when one
begins to work with logarithms. No
college student can ignore this synthesis without dooming himself to
failure in religious maturity.

To The Editor:
From behind the coffee cups and
the haze of smoke in the SUB Grill,
often has come the remark the Kernel
contains "NOTHING." These remarks
frequently come from persons who
know nothing about newspapers and
newspaper work.
They seem to expect from the
journalism students a publication
which will make the New York Times
look like wrapping paper for the daily
garbage. But what's more, these smoking, caffine consumers want a daily

To The Editor:
The Kernel has been extremely
generous in space and attention to
WBKY and the cause of "Kaleidoscope." The most recent story reported an especially
and encouraging incident: the receipt of letters of appreciation for the
background music service from a
number of children at Meadowthorpe
Elementary School.
Unhappily, however, statements I
made and I was quoted accurately
enough but in the wrong context-appea- red
in such juxtaposition us to
heart-warmin- g

news that is relative to the University.
The persons who work and write
for the Kernel are students trying
to learn the profession of journalism.
They give their time and efforts to

make them, and me, sound most ungracious.
I would like to .make it clear tha
the letters from the elementary school
children pleased and encouraged us
ail, for their own sake, with no "buts"
whatsoever.
Again, may I express the appreciation we all feel for the considerable
support the Kernel has given WBKY.

American patriotism is generally
something that amuses Europeans, I
suppose because children look idiotic
saluting the flag and because the
Constitution contains so many cracks
through which the lawyers may creep.
But in fact the flood of American
children that pour into Washington
by the busload have the edge over us
in patriotism: we get a lump in the
throat over the Coronation; they get
a lump over the Declaration of Independence. The Spectator (London).
Notice in the Washington zoo:
"Lost children will be taken to the
lion house." Catholic Diiieat.

packed to overflowing with letters,

out later.
Only Ernest Hemingway hadn't
tossed them out.
Nobody saved things like Era
ret," said Mary Hemingway. "Every
fcrap of paper, every newspaper
wrapper."
She tied on her working clothes
a long white butcher's smock
which she put on backwards to
protect her blue slacks and shirt
from the dust. It had been collecting in the boxes since the
1930's when a suntanned,
author moved out of
the big house, on Whitehead Street,
stored many of his things in the
rear of Joe Russell's bar and
moved on.
Now it was up to his widow to
go through these things.
Mary Hemingway Is a woman
of great strength only 5 feet 2
inches with short cropped blonde-gra- y
hair, a quick smile to go with
a gracious manner and lips that
purse fiercely in contemplation.
Her eyes are liquid blue.
For three weeks now she has
arrived each morning at the barn-size- d
bar with . its parachute-drape- d
ceiling and pictures of
Hemingway orr";ohe wall, to begin work in what she jokingly
calls "the hole."
She works most of ' the day.
Usually Betty Bruce, a longtime
Key West friend, helps.
It's to Betty that Mrs. Hemingway occasionally says: "Do you
think they'd like to have this?"
And "this" means something of
her husband's a duplicate publication, a scrap of his handwriting

after the author's divorce from

miration society," she said. She
spoke happily of "coming over to
spend the weekends with Pauline."
"I think this is one of the nicest
towns In America, really.
"It Just got so that Ernest
couldn't work here. It's difficult
keeping your privacy, you know,"
she said, and spoke of trouble
they had keeping that privacy at
their Cuban "finca."
"We felt it was awfully bad for
him," she said of the continual
flow of unexpected company. "You
Just can't go around entertaining
people all the time and do the kind
of work he wanted to do."
She adjusted her glasses and
continued sorting.
"I'm only throwing away res,
quests for autographs, old
things that could have no
value."
"Sometimes you can see richt
away why Ernest saved something.
Other times you have to read
throuan the entire paper," said
the diminutive woman the world
knows as "Miss Mary." ("Since
Papa named me Miss Mary and

everyone all over the world calls

familiar with it and I feel fine
with it.")
For students, she feels all these
papers are valuable. "Through the
letters especially one can reconstruct the whole epoch of American letters that includes Dos Pas-so- s.
Archie MacLeish. Ezra Pound."
However, she said, the letters
will never be printed. "Ernest
left a request that none of his
letters be published."
The filled cartons of letters and
books, like those she has already
twice weeded out from their Idaho

'

and Cuba homes (the latter having been turned over to the Cuban
government as a memorial), will
be sent to New York for later
sorting, then "possibly the Library
of Congress or New York Public
Library . . . there are no plans
yet."
"We haven't come across any
great finds notes and bits of
pieces of stuff, but no tremendous
treasure."
"I think one has to exercise both
Judgment and Jealousy in this,"
she said, explaining that she has
come across some intimate letters.
"I don't read them. But I also
think that at the same time they
should not be destroyed." So, unread, she has put them, too, aside.
She smiled broadly. "Here's a
letter from Papa to somebody,"
and she perched on a table to
read it.
"Papa wrote good letters. I don't
think there's ever been anybody in
the whole world who wrote like
so perceptive. He saw
him
through all sham.
"He was a smart fella, that Papa
a smart hombre."
She replied to a question about
her future: "I haven't any plans
right now."
And how is she doing in the
difficult adjustment to life after
the death of a loved one?
"Papa wrote in a story once
I think it was in 'A Farewell to
Arms' when the man is exercising
his leg and talking with an Italian
soldier in the next bed. The soldier had Just spoken about having
lost his wife.
"And Papa said: 'There is no
consolation'."
