Retired General Enters Law School At 66

Hy BILL (SHAN'T, Kernel Starf Writer
Fifty years have passed since James KYlioe decided to study law.
In 1912, Kelioe was headed for Harvard to
to West Point. Now
study law hut was
after 50 years, he is enrolled in the College of Law
at the University as a freshman student.
It was t lie West Point uniform that first caught
Kehoe's attention and led him from his law career. His
brother was n West Point cadet and visited him at his
side-tracke-

d

prep school in Washington, DC.
"There were just too many brass buttons." lie recalls, "and after that, law Just went out tin1 window."
Senator Johnson M. Camden from Versailles appointed young Kehoe to West Point and he was admitted
in the summer of IS 5.
"It was really rough," Krhoe said. "I think it was
the physical texture. You'd to on guard all night or have
daily driil no matter If you had an examination the next
clay or not. Most people dcn'1 realize that in addition to
the academic woik there are alo the military and professional skiifs to learn."
"The wci!: was a lot harder too. We'd do the math in
two years that Harvard or Yale would do in four. The
thing about it is they went so fast."

law .student believes students are
The
no different today than they were In his day.
Remembering hi experiences a a law student, Kehoe says, "The question In if I will be able to keep up
with the fellows over there (the College of Law) with
this
brain of mine. There are very few fellows in the law school, who don't work from fi a.m. to
11 p.m. The instructors are very
thorough and they know
what they're doing."
Kehoc explained his plans after law school. He hopes
to return to his native Maysville to practice law. "I'll
know if I'm going to make it after the first examination,"
he added.
Kehoc's 06 years have been far from dull. He graduated from West Point in 1018 and there was a war
taking place. He was sent to Asia where he served until
the end cf the war.
After World War I he resigned his commission and
returned to .Maysville. In 111 II. Gov. William .1. (Honest
Hilly) fields appointed Kehoe adjutant general of Kentucky. He remained in that post for four years.
Ho organized a National Guard outfit at Maysville
and the Maysville company was activated 11 month,
before the Japanese attack on Pearl Haibor.
Kehoe was with an infantry company in Georgia

Students And Dickey
Agree On Fee Hike

Student comments on the

an-

increase a semester in

tuition to take effect next year
vary from the indignant to the indifferent.

"It's terrible!" says George

Geor-gali- s,

an engineering major. I
agree with President Dickey. Since
the tuition did increase last year,
this should be more on the taxpayer than on the student. If it
increases now, when will it stop?"
Jack Stearman, an engineering
major commented, "I'll pay it, but
not too happily. I hope the tuition
levels off soon."
"After the increase last year, they
could at least wait another year
for this one," said Jerry Grady, a
music major.
"I don't think it's fair," said
Janice Deeb, interior decorating
major. Tresident Dickey said the
increase should come from the taxpayers, not the students, and I
agree. I can understand the need
for the increase, but I side with
President Dickey.
"I would imagine the increase
would have a bad reaction among
the students," commented John

Thornbury, a language major. It
probably will make only a small
differnce among the students coming back."
Jean Jones, education major,
said, "If it's raised, of course we'll
have to pay. This might make it
rough on some, although the tuition is very reasonable compared
to non state schools."
Jo Ann Wood, a premed major
said, "If the raise is necessary,
they're going about it in the right
way, slowly. The raise will go to
keep up with the trends and will
help in medical school."
"I can't complain too much because the tuition here is cheaper
than in other states, but they are
increasing it," said Donald Keller,
engineering major. One raise is
all right, but they should have
waited a few years for the next
one."
Carole Gill, PE major, said, "I
have formed no real opinion on
the matter. It seems that $10
should not make that much difference to anyone."

LEXINGTON, KV., THURSDAY. OCT.

UK's executive vice president
said Tuesday wight that enrollment at the University during the
next eight years will jump 80 percent at the upperclass level.
Dr. A. D. Albright told a group
at the Big Springs Country Club
in Louisville that the increase in
freshman enrollment alone will
amount to 40 percent. Therefore, the University will continue

to emphasize the recruiting of high
and keeping
quality freshmen
them in school.
The trend is already evident. UK
showed a 700 percent increase this
year, mostly in the sophomore,
junior, and senior classes, and can
expect an overall campus enrollment of 1.1,700 fulltime students
by 1970.

The bulk of increase will hit the

8.537 on the main campus and a
total enrollment of 11,321. which
includes part-tim- e
students.
Dr. Albright said this trend has
many ramifications regarding University planning. Graduate programs will have to be strengthened, research expanded, an increased number of highly qualified
faculty members obtained, and
graduate students encouraged to
do more independent study.
He said present loan and scholarship programs .should be doubled
immediately and the University
will have to increase the number
of fellowships, assistantships, and
stipends in number and value.
"The value of your degree from
UK," Dr. Albright told the alumni
group, "will continue to increase
only if the University continues to
improve its educational and research programs."

"Why, it was enough to make a cray man nervous."
I found a friend who was going to India and I borrowed

He said. "The war zone is a safer place to b; at

awfully hard to kill a trained soldier; most of the lox.es
