A college newspaper can provide an outlet for student ideas and thoughts throueh

HOW TO SUBMIT INNER WALL
COPY IN SIX EASY STEPS
1. Type all copy. If you don't have a typewriter and think your poetry is good,
send it anyway. I'll type it for you.
2. Double space. It can be on red, white, yellow, pink, or black paper. We're
not prejudiced.
3. Any style is acceptable for poetry.
4. Place name, classification and major at the bottom right-hancorner of the
d

manuscript.

5. Choose your own title and center it at the top.
6. Send poetry to the Kernel's Inner Wall.

INNER WALL BOARD

The Inner Wall Board will meet the Monday before publication and select poetry
that will go in the supplement. The poetry that is not acceptable (pornography is
the main offender) will be saved for a liberal day. None of the poetry is thrown
away. The Board does not alter style or make any corrections except for obvious
misspelled words.

And speaking of selection. It was difficult. We stood in a long row in front of
an ironing board and scattered the good, the bad, and the ugly among us. The drip-dr- y
works stood out in striking contrast to the wet diapers still in their infancy.
On first reading they looked quite flawless, perhaps already ironed. They seemed
natural, clearly understandable, potential works that would stand the test of the
iron our readers. Up and down the line we agreed these selections would open up
other minds.
Some we accepted because although the sleeves were in need of another washing
before meeting the iron, as a whole the shirt was new enough and fresh enough that
we thought the sleeves would not adversely affect the whole. It was a chance.
Some was put buck on the line, in hopes that the wind would blow it away.
Every piece submitted we knew had some reason for coming into existence. But if
An embarrassment to
often came out tattered and torn, over dyed or under-dyewear. An obvious stniggle to be Urn and not worth living.
The greatest difficulty was not in defending what we finally did accept but in
what we did not. IVrhaps a genius was hung on that imprinted line. Un struck
by its hidden brilliance, we prevented it from meeting the iron.
We have made the necessary changes in spelling and punctuation. But we have
not attempted to alter the form of any woik submitted. We hope the crafts presented
will appeal to you, the reader. You are all different, another difficulty. What the
sophisticated reader will like, the "mountain dew" fellow will not, and so forth.
We hope you will not find what we have chosen as the ironable, unironable. If you
get steamed up by the horror of some work, write us be critical.
In essence, selection w as the xxr reflection in the iron of our own bias. We tried
not to scorch anything, or let hopeless forms get by the Ijoard. We're enjoving our
task, and in fun and high spirits, hoi you enjoy and make use of the Inner Wall.

Looking through the material submitted for the Inner Wall, I felt that some of
the writers (I hesitate to use the word poets) might well have heeded that
advice, "tell it like it is."
Today's poetry stems from the real world, one's own experiences and bouts
w ith reality. The days of 'a rose is a rose happened 200 years ago.
For example, if a writer wants to describe 'eternity,' he is putting himself in an

uncomfortable position.
First, the late and great poets of yesteryear have already said it; and we've all
read what they said at one time or another. Further attempts along their lines
would be redundant.
Second, the writer of today must place himself in an aura of omniscience to
describe 'eternity,' something few of us are capable of.
Find something real something you have experienced; and tell it like it is.
If you're really lonely, tell us about it -- in writing. Don't say, "I think it would
be neat to write about being lonely." That's phony.
If you went home last night and kicked the dog that's real. Tell us about it
and w hy you did it.
Remember your leader is human, not sitting on Mount Olympus or in that
"cataclysmic abyss." Leave eternity to Keats and the gods; your reader isn't Jove
or Wordsworth.
But he might have kicked
dog, too.

we hope our voice will be heeded before the excitement of election
dies and complacency takes over. We now urge the SG, led by such
proven representives as Bright, Westerfield, and Carpenter and promising aspirants as Futrell and Wolff to:

Klcct a speaker of the assembly who is experienced enough to
know what to do, ))opular enough to reflect the views of the students,
and interested enough to make the office as effective as it has been.

Establish a lobby in the next state legislature for student views.
The mood now sweeping the state can be fatal to higher education.
By original and dynamic participation in this field the SG could be
invaluable to the progress of Kentucky and UK.
