Dr. Dickey said the University
embarked upon the study partly
because of the policies of the accrediting association in which it
holds membership.
He said the project was also
undertaken because "the Univer- sity recognizes that education

ness to supply a high quality of in
diViduals who are prepared to cope
with the challenge of living in this

Russia.
Shockingly enough, the perpetrator
of this fear is not the person in the

upper strata of command. It

is not

the person who runs this particular
office or department.
This creature occupies the position
of receptionist or secretary. Not all
secretaries are like this. Many are
congenial and considerate. But, as in
other places, a few spoil the barrelful.
Too many act as veritable inquisitors ready to sentence one to eternal

exile for intruding so haughtily upon

their domain.
What right have you to take up
their time with your petty, sniveling
problem? You want to sec whom
about what? These are the attitudes
of many campus secretaries.
Overwork could not be the reason
for the crabbincss one often encounters; UK employees get an hour and
a half free for lunch, and offices arc
closed during that period. This, too,
is irksome to students and faculty
members who are only free during
the lunch hour.
It should not be too difficult to set
up staggering hours for UK secretaries so that one will be on duty at
all times during the day. It would not
only please students and faculty members, but visitors.
As for the crabbiness, perhaps one
can find a better way to bypass the
secretarial barricades to talk to the
"boss-man.-

Social Justice
To The Editor:
Your anonymous correspondent
wishes to concede to the lady who
wrote the Kernel on racial inequality
that it is unjust for business men to
discriminate in their service. I believe the lady missed my point the
customers demand it this way.
Businessmen go into business to
make profits. They make profits by
providing the goods and services that
their customers desire and can afford.
Their customers are far from perfect
persons. Thus their business policies
are formulated accordingly.
Since the businessman is a willing
servant under certain conditions to
his customers, he can not afford to
practice what ought to be. His business depends upon serving people
under existing conditions. When conditions change, he changes, too.
Thus I say that CORE is putting
pressure on the wrong persons to
obtain social equality. Since it is the
customers of a business who influence
the policies of that business the most,
then logically it should be the customers that should be convinced that
racial discrimination is wrong. If the
customers were convinced of that,
they would demand it from the businessman by withholding sales from

A New Contest
To The Editor:
In light of the past weekend's
queen contest and in memory of
others past, I would like to offer one
more suggestion on the ofttimes
scoffed at, but all important queen
contest. I say they are important because they must be to take so much
time in fraternity and dorm meetings.
I would like to place before the student body one more queen contest
a little different from the rest.
To be eligible the girls would have
to be graduating maidens who have
never won a race before or should
I have said a queen contest. But this
is not all, the contest is going to be
quite unique in that there will be
betting for your favorite
choice, who is picked by your fraternity, sorority, or dorm. The proceeds
from the contest will go to a very
worthy but somewhat unworkable
cause; the proceeds will buy drop
and add cards for the controversial
preregistration.

It appears that the idea of social
justice has not gotten over to the
majority of the people in this area.
I am not sure whose fault this is but
I am convinced that believers in the
idea of social justice should be out

It is a cardinal principle when levying a comment upon a situation to leave
yourself a loophole.
An efficient editorial writer will always provide himself with an escape
mechanism. He will do this by insertion
of carefully placed generalities and ambivalent assertions.
