Assistant to the Executive Editor
The University parking situation is in a period of transition
which will take from one to 10 years, Lawrence Coleman, campus
planner, told members of Student Congress Thursday night.
Coleman told the group the surface parking at the University
was at "the absolute extreme." He said the only space for more
surface parking is too far from the center of campus to be useful.
The planner said present finances allow the University to
consider the construction of the first structure for parking. He noted
that the structure would house about 800 cars and take care of the
parking problem for about two years.
Coleman stated he did not know when construction of the
structure would begin, but he expressed hope that it would be in
use by the fall semester of 1963. Revenue from existing parking facilities is the only means of financing the project, Coleman said.
Coleman said he realized students did not get as many
parking spaces as were needed this year. He noted that the University owns 3,900 parking spaces. Only 500 student permits were sold
this year, according to Coleman.
The planner said relief of the present parking problem would
be possible by conversion of spaces. He said it was hoped that more
spaces in Sections A and B would be open to students. At present,
students have about one-hathe parking space needed, Coleman
said.
In other business, congress approved all but one item on the
proposed budget for the school year. They shelved a request to appropriate $125 for Hanging of the Greens, a Christmas program,
pending further investigation.
Only two items received considerable objection from some
members of the assembly. The group voted 11-- 7 to appropriate $600
to the debate team. The request from the debate team stated that
the group was receiving finances from the administration for the
first time, and the congress money would be used to help debate
students in financial difficulty.
After a lengthy floor debate, congress appropriated $500 to the
Women's Residence Halls. Opponents of the grant stated that the
Men's Residence Halls did not receive a congress grant, while proponents charged that WRH participated in activities not encountered
by MRU.
The following projects also received congress grants: Law Day,
$200; Stylus, $100; soil judging, $100; yearbook pictures, $100;
student directory, $1,500; livestock judging, $300; Dames Club, $200;
YMCA, $700; Cooperstown Housing, $405; Appalachian Volunteers,
$500; AWS, $800, and homecoming, $250.
A total of $6, 380 was approved for grants and projects; $550
was approved for personal expenses, and $1,426 was appropriated for
congress operating expenses. The total estimated income is $11,790.

Have A Bad Day? .

If today has been an unusually bad day for any
University student, we recommend they think twice
before blaming it on Friday, the 13th.

Many people disagree on whether there's any
superstition connected with the coincidence of the 13th
falling on a Friday. There's even one report which
declared that the mere figure of 13 in the date doesn't
necessarily matter. In fact, it might be favorable to some

individuals.

Some years ago a newspaper carried such an article which said that this coincidence of date and day of
the month indicates that good fortune is in store for
"men and women who were born between March and
April 22 of preceding years."
The reason is that during this year they are
"feeling the eleventh house vibrations of Saturn from
now until February." (Consider yourself lucky if you're
among the selected few.)
However, other beliefs alxmt the superstition are
more concretely defined. In fact, certain savage tribes
observed religious or holy days on which they did as
little work as possible. Friday was such a day, as is
Sunday, or was, among Christian peoples.
The jR'ople could not expect "good luck" to come
as favors from their gods if these woik days were not
devoted to rest and to imploring the gods for good crops,
health and happiness.

Dr. Patterson said the new applications will
be given consideration
toward fdling positions
vacated on the committee by May graduates. James
Svara and Sandy Brock are the SCC cochairmen.
Dr. Patterson added applications for the
SCC's various subcommittees would be available
at a later date.
The Student Centennial Committee was formed to plan student activities duringthe University's
100th anniversary which begins in January anil will
officially be kicked off with a Founder's Day observance Feb. 22.
Dr. Patterson complimented the present committee members for initiating "a number of challenging programs" and added the University must
now look to members of the junior class to carry
on this work until the Centennial's conclusion in
December, 196J5.

Could Be The Date

In essence, any work on Friday could not be ex- pected to be completed satisfactorily, and later Friday,

particularly the 13th, became taboo

for such

super-

stitious people.

The actual superstition of the number 13 is thought
to have originated in ancient witchcraft. The early
witches practiced their witchcraft in groups consistingof
the "devil" who was the leader and
commander and 12 witches who worked together in the group in
the practice of their alleged magical arts. Presumably
this is how a fixed number of harmful grouping is 13.
Such a fear of the number is purported to be
related to the Last Supper, the occasion at which Judas
betrayed Christ, his crucifixtion to follow. There were
13 people at the table.
But it's been said that such a deed could not have
been caused in any way by any magic of numbers. It
could be compared to other legends, wherein some
imaginary relationship of some coincidence may be
cited as if a causal relation has been discovered.
However, superstitious people who have such a
fear practice the avoidance of the number of 13. This is
common among the educated and the uneducated.
So if you're one of these superstitious individuals,
why not get out the old rabbit's foot (preferably the
left hind leg), don't walk under a ladder, try not to
break a mirror (7 years bad luck, you know) and stay
away from black cats. . . .at least until tomorrow.
But if today's your birthday, don't worry about
good luck charms. Friday, the 'it It is you lucky day.

WHAT IS MEANT BY "CUTTING"?
Gem cutting is a great art. Because a
correctly cut and polished diamond has great
refractory powers, it concentrates light
and radiates an intense, flashing fire. The
slightest variation from the ideal cutting
of a diamond's tiny facets results in a
reduction of this fire and brilliancy - and a
lesser value for the finished diamond.

Folk Music:
A Wide, Deep Stream

What a funny world w e live in.
Not many years ago young people
immersed themselves in the torrent
of music that sprang from "Hock
Around the Clock" the precursory

industrialism's wastes pollute it,
and where rampant technology obscures it. Only the marvelous alchemy of a Dylan or a Seeger can
transmute the dark waters that
rumble through the metropolises.
Other artists are returning to the
tributaries to the fountainheads.

ditty that announced rock'n roll's
ascendancy. Now the torrent seems
to have subsided, and rock'n roll
appears destined to ebb slowly
away. Xot too distant is the wide,
deep stream of folk music, and many
have already tasted its waters. Some
have drunk deep.
Probably this bodes well for
American youth, in that they may
yet accept and utilize their own
cultural heritage and that they may
learn to cope with the basic themes
of civilization: love, hate, death,

We are faced daily with the

necessity of understanding the

ba-

sics of life. We are confronted each

day with the possibility that someone may push the button, and that
death will close a cold fist around
mankind. Before our eyes some
suffer in poverty while others enjoy
the fruits of the capitalistic system.
We are taught by our Negro citizens
how to be hated and yet not hate.
On every side appear evidences of
man's inhumanity to himself and
others, and evidences of man's capacity, virtually untapped, for love
of his brothers. We must be able to
approach these themes without
shame or fear. We must come to
terms with love, hate, death, and

life.
We have been led to believe

that American cultural atmosphere
or, at the very
least, greatly inferior to Europe's.
We have been taught, most of us,
that artistic expression in this country is, at best, no better than mediocre. We have been led to a myopic
view of our cultural heritage. Thus,
perhaps the greatest virtue of the
present folk revolution is that it
enables us to identify with our
cultural inheritance.

The folk revolution betrays an
encouraging awareness on the part
of young people taday an awareness that even in this tangle of
wores, fuses, and transistors we call
the 20th century it is important to
know what is real and what is not
real, and to cling to the former.

Rather than borrowing from the
Continent, we are beginning to
trace that broad stream of American
folklore to its wellsprings. Some
sources are in the mountains; some
are in southern shanty towns; some
are in the West; some are in the
Plains, In our search we walk paths
explored by lonely troubadours such
as Woody Guthrie and HuddieLed-bette- r
in the 30's. The tributaries
gathered together into the great
body of folklore which we are exploring today. The mainstream rambles through the great cities, where

What exactly are these pure
waters at the wellsprings of American folklore? They are the great
themes of the ages, interpreted by
the people and passed on. They are
songs and stories of passion, tragedy,
tenderness, comedy, and a multitude of other themes common to all
civilizations. And is this not the
essence of art the expression of
life's beauty, and its pain?

Kernel Notes
One of our local newspapers
began an editorial in yesterday's
edition with this sentence: "A community without a newspaper is a
very seriously crippled community."
And we agree.

We are unable to restrain ourselves from the following stale humor, prompted by a robbery at

Lexington's Atlas Provision Company. The thief evidently broke
open a freezer and took two boxes
of frog legs, two boxes of salmon,

and three boxes of trout. Now it
seems to us there's something fishy
about that.
The Kernel wants to go on
record in opposition to winter. It
drives heating costs up at least
100 percent. It is detrimental to
leaves. It necessitates an additional
set of clothing, which is an unnecessary expense for students. It's
probably Communist inspired. Just
think how many cheeks turn pink
in winter.

I supplement your news story by
adding a few details that your
reporter omitted.
First, I was by no means the
"lone dissenting voice" so far as
the vote was concerned. On the
contrary, the voice vote was close
enough that the presiding officer

position was concerned. As I said
in my opening remarks, those supporting the proposed calendar had
summoned up so much artillery and
had brought so much pressure to
bear on the Faculty that a disserting voice might well seem foolhardy and even somewhat like heresy. Since, however, the Faculty

UN Talk Of Barrv Goldwater
United Nations Notes At the
United Nations men talked sadly
of the more melancholy aspects
of Barry Goldwater's almost total failure. He failed not only
himself and his country, but the
Western alliance as well. He
promised a "choice, not an echo,"
but never once did he bring to
focus the major issues that burden this country and all members
of the United Nations.
"The Communist powers are
split apart," said a European
staff member in discussing the
campaign. "Yet, Mr. Goldwater's
contribution to this complex and
important situation was to charge
that President Johnson was soft
on communism.
"The Western world bound itself together in 1945 in an effort to
contain communism," he continued. "Since 1945 the American
Presidents, Truman, Eisenhower
in two terms, John Kennedy in
three years, and Lyndon Johnson
in one year, have marshalled all

WILLIAM F. BUCKLEY JR.

GOP's 'Stretch Of Desert9
Murray Kempton has defined

the Republican Party as having
been reduced to "George Murphy
on the Pacific Coast, John Lindsay on the Eastern Coast, and
a long stretch of desert in between,
interrupted only by
George Romney." There is exaggeration there, but so also is

there point; and it is to be expected that Republican leaders
will now caterwaul over the
corpse of their party and make
the effort to bring it back to life.
Meanwhile
considerable
thought is given over to the
qualifications of the attendant
physicians, centeringontheques-tio- n
whether anyone who contrito the
buted conspicuously
party's illness is presumptively
qualified to nurse it back to
health. Mr. Nixon, for instance,
has directly challenged
Gov.
Rockefeller's future usefulness to
the party. Rockefeller, he says,
is "through" as a Republican
leader outside New York State,
having behaved as a "spoilsport." If Mr. Rockefeller takes
the lead in trying to dump Dean
Burch, Mr. Nixon concludes, the
effort to replace Burch will collapse.
It is, really, extraordinary how
many people who directly contributed to Sen. Goldwater's considerable defeat should be expressing such annoyance at him
for being defeated.
If one attaches a sea anchor to the keel
of a racing vessel, one should
neither be surprised when the
boat loses, nor indignant at its
skipper for having lost. Millions
of Americans refused to vote for
Sen. Goldwater because they had
become convinced by his mod

erate Republican critics not by
his Democratic
critics, from
whom they expected criticism as
a matter of routine that he was
moderately insane.
Gov. Rockefeller, defending
himself against Mr. Nixon's
charges, reiterated all the way
from Spain, where he is vacationing after his long labors in
behalf of the Republican Party,
why he could not support
citing Mr. Goldwater's
views on several issues including
his desire to "sell TVA."
Now the idea of selling TVA,
which became a symbol of Sen.
Goldwater's alleged atavism, is
perfect as a case in point here.
I wonder why the idea of selling
TVA is so sacrilegious. Sen. Gold-watis made to sound as though
it was his intention to send troops
into Knoxville during the middle
of the night with orders to pull
out a few strategic plugs and
flood the Tenness
