held around the basketball court,
community cook-ofloodlights are now being installed to illuminate the area.
R. W. Blakeman, manager of housing operations,
emphasized last week that the lights are to be used for
"special occasions, not night basketball games." The
Town Council will decide when the lights are to be
turned on.

said Dr. Kenneth Harper, dean of men,
explaining his hopes lor increased social activity
among married students.
"When a student works to support his family, goes
to class, studies, and tries to fulfill the duties of a household there Is a definite need for recreation.
"He needs a break to rebuild himself, and it improves
his school work," continued Dean Harper.
Possible programs listed by the dean include dancing
lessons; qualified lectures on child care, family budgetcard playing classes; and parties.
ing, and
Not forgetting that the improvement of study habits
is a main goal, Dean Harper included tutoring services
similar to those available to athletic teams, and renovation of vacant areas in the housing projects into study
halls.
"We are ready to put these plans into action as soon
as we find a desire among the residents," the dean said.

Jack Hall, assistant dean of men in charge of married student housing, added that any activities are
"limited only by the initiative of the Town Council," and
the support of the residents.
In anticipation of future events similar to the recent

Mr. Blakeman also talked about a new TV antenna
system for Cooperstown. The system has been under consideration for some time and experimentation began last
spring.
"We are ready, willing and able to spend the money,"
Mr. Blakeman said, "if we can find the right equipment."
Cooperstown is in what technicians call a "dead
spot," or area of poor reception. Equipment installed on
D Building as a test has proved unsatisfactory, according
to Mr. Blakeman, and progress is temporarily stalled.
Three changes account for this increased activity for
married students. One is the appointment last July of
Mr. Hall to the new post of Assistant Dean of Men
in Charge of Married Student Housing.
His attention is directed specifically toward married
students. He hopes to work with the Town Council improving communication between married students and
the administration. Mr. Hall was formerly Director of
Men's Residence Halls.
Finances for Cooperstown and Shawneetown are now
handled through the office of Dr. Robert F. Kerley, vice

president in charge of business affairs and treasurer.
Necessary expenditures for running the projects are
paid out of a fund supplied by rents.
Prior to last July all married housing affairs, including finances, were handled through the office of the
dean of men. This change, according to Dean Harper,
"frees us for our primary function of programming."
Programming includes social activities and renting
apartments.
The third change which has accelerated married
student activity occurred last April. Elections were held
in Cooperstown for a new Town Council which has the
responsibility of initiating and promoting programs.
According to Fred Dellamura, mayor, "this was the
first time a real campaign was waged and the winners
are anxious to do a good job."
Other officers and representatives are: Gil Wood,
vice mayor and representative
for A Building; Mary
Jeppson, secretary and representative for D Building;
Larry Buxton, treasurer and representative for E Building; Larry Crosby, rpoits director and representative
fo B Building; Ken Wade, B Building; Harison Fields,
C Building. Jim Cross was appointed by the Council to
represent G Building, filling the vacancy left by Dellamura when he became mayor.
Some repreesntatives
who won the election have
graduated or moved from the project so that both wings
of F Building, one wing of A Building and one wing of
D Building are not represented on the council right now.

Student Forum Expanded;
Extra Debates Planned
The University Student
Forum has undergone an administrative change aimed at
providing expanded speech
training programs for high
school anil college students
throughout the state.

Howell Brady, a Junior speech
major from Mayfield, heads a
four-ma- n
executive committee
charged with revamping Forum
programs. Bill Grant, senior jour- nalism major from Winchester,
heads a special topics subcommittee while Gary Hawksworth,
senior journalism major from
Brandenburg, and Art Henderson, Junior chemical engineering
major from Maysville, head committees on Junior colleges and
student programming.
Dr. J. W. Patterson, associate
professor of speech, will continue
as faculty advisor and coach of
the intramural speakers.
In one of the committee's first

moves, David Rouse, freshman
political science major from Lexington, was named an associate
member of the committee. Rouse's
work will largely be in assisting
Brady with the high school "Debate of the Month" and in doing
demonstration
speeches before
various high school groups
throughout the state.
During the year, the Forum
also plans establishment of speech
tournaments and clinics for students at UK Community Colleges
and other Junior colleges in Kentucky. Also planned is an increase
in high school visitations by UK
student speech demonstration
teams, and monthly debates between outstanding high school
debate teams.
Here, the group will provide
intramural defor
bates, discussions and general
speaking events for
debate students. Scheduled for
October will be a debate on Johnson vs. Goldwater, and Decem

ber will feature a student discussion on the phases of the
President's Academic Analysis.
Grant's subcommittee hopes to
attract nationally known speakers to the campus to engage in
informal Forum debates.
The Student Forum was organized in 1960 to furnish training
and experience in speaking activities for students interested in
intramural forensics, and to promote discussions on public affairs
among members of the student
body.
