Bob Dylan Is Accepting
His Early Maturity

i

By SCOTT NUNLEY
Kernel Arts Editor
Bob Dylan's newest album,
"Bringing It All Back Home,"
appears to be undertaking some-

thing other than the protest
themes of Ids earlier work.
Besides selections with as
much power and beauty as Dylan
has ever shown, the new album
presents several songs which
seem to be aimed more positively,
perhaps at the beginnings of a
Dylan philosophy.
"Gates Of Eden" in particular
advocates some vague principles
of thought that might be considered philosophic. Eden has long
been a symbol of innocence, and
in Dylan's song it is only in Eden
that Truth resides.
What is being led up to is a
wild postulation, an attempt to
give at least one name to this
disjointed preachment of Dylan's.
The term is
Innocence."

The Spy Business Booms
The outlook for television next
fall is once again a game of Follow The Leader. While last year's

axiom seemed to be "Comedies
will sell," the word for this fall is
"Espionage is big business."
On the boards are such Mata
Hari types as "F-6- "
"The FBI
Story," and the current "Burke's
Law" will expand into the swim
with
"Amos
Burke Secret
Agent."
Following upon the heels of
the successful Ian Flemingjames
Bond movies, America's three
television networks are racing to
e
see who can add the most
adventure series by next
season. The once faltering half-hoseries "Danger Man" has
already been boosted to 60 minutes under the subtle title "Secret
Agent;" complete with
theme song.

There will be more to come.
One series has already combined
the best of both worlds by aiming
at being a
"Get

bumbling Bond.
But it is not primarily James
Bond's exploits that have done
this to American television. Only
a few years ago, espionage was

Investor concern has been reassured by the outstanding success of one show this past fall

cence appears throughout the album. In "She Belongs To Me,"
he sings of a girl who is an artist

"Love Minus ZeroNo Limit"
is probably the best song of the

"Self-Relia-

When you go looking for
Innocence, you run the
risk of stretching the point out of
proportion. Hut even the poem
of Dylan's on the back jacket of
the album seems to reflect this
decision to turn from the world
into a more innocent existence:
"needless t say, i split fast go
back t the nice quiet country, am
standing there writing WHAAT?

poem is a naked person," Dylan
says, "Some people say that I
am a poet."
Rut frequently the selections
of "Bringing It All Back Home"
suffer from sheer length. "Cates

long; "Bob Dylan's 115th Dream"
is six and a half minutes long,

For years campus leaders have
bemoaned the apathy of students
living off campus when it comes
to participation in University activities, but the Town HousingCoun-cil- ,
formed on student initiative,
has struck out against the old cry
of nonparticipation.
Formed by students living outside University-owne- d
housing, the
group's initial purpose is to help
y
the student find
and
comfortable
housing.
Since recent housing policy decisions and increased enrollment will
push more students off campus,
this need is more crucial than ever.
The Council, which is now seeking University approval as an official organization, proposes to
print a mimeographed bulletin describing available housing in Lexington. When possible, former tenants will include comments. In
view of the discontinuance of official University inspections several
years ago, this would certainly be
a valuable aid to house-huntin- g
students.
They also propose to draw up
contracts between student renters

and landlords to prevent unanticipated rent rises and other problems.

In addition to its avowed purpose, the Town Housing Council,
if it can become a strong, active
organization, can be a unit of cooperation for town students, much
as a residence hall, sorority house,
or fraternity house can be for
students. The Council can
be an organ through which the
students can be brought
into contact with a walth of other
campus activities. Already campus
organizations are including the
Council on their mailing lists when
sending out announcements, reports, and applications.
We applaud the students who
formed the Council and back them
fully in their efforts to provide a
student-initiate- d
solution to a
pressing University problem. We
hope they will grow in strength

CULTURE JUMPERS: PART TWO

Volunteer On The Job: Mostly Alone

By THOMAS S. PLAUT
There have been complaints of
the Peace Corps alienating the intellectual from its service. Critics
claim the agency has become an
"international boy scout troop,"
where volunteers are closely supervised and "mothered" on the job.

This, it is contended, is borne out
in Peace Corps training, where potential volunteers are closely
watched and "brainwashed" by
Peace Corps psychiatrists.
The Peace Corps has to leave its
volunteers in the field pretty much
on their own. There simply is not

out of it, are up to him.

period is inescapable. Before sending a man to work in a foreign
country, the Peace Corps wants to
know why that individual wants to
serve and make sure that individual

knows why. An average of 12 weeks
is provided to teach a volunteer
a new language, specific skills needed for a specific assignment and

resiliency to "culture shock." The
training is armament for one of the
most individual jobs available anywhere in the world.
And the jobs are available. There
are more than 10,000 volunteers in
the field. Most of their host countries are asking for still more. Volunteers returning home having completed their service must be replaced.
Working conditions are not necessarily primitive. Volunteers live
in accommodations similar to citizens of their host countries who are
doing the same kind of work. Whereas a rural community development
worker in Latin America might well
have to "rough it," a college teacher in Nigeria lives in modern, spacious apartments.
Any American citizen 18 or over
is eligible for Peace Corps service.
There is no upper age limit. Married couples may serve if both qualify for the same project (not necessarily the same job) and have no
dependents under 18. There are no
foreign
language requirements.

To apply, students must fill out
the Peace Corps Questionnaire,
available at all post offices, and
take the Peace Corps Placement
Test, which is not passed or failed,
but simply serves as an indication
of what the applicant can do best.
It's a good job for those who
care about the world for those
who care about people.
One of them said, "All my life
I've been sitting on the sidelines
watching the world go be. Nobody
asked me to help. The Peace Corps
asked and now I'm in the middle
of it."
The Peace Corps provides an
opportunity for all to join in Mr.
Hutchins' race toward world understanding. The task is still overwhelming, but the Peace Corps is
proving that it's not impossible as
long as there are enough Americans
with the guts and intellect to put
their ways of life on the line and go

CULTURE JUMPERS: PART TWO

Volunteer On The Job: Mostly Alone

By THOMAS S. PLAUT
There have been complaints of
the Peace Corps alienating the intellectual from its service. Critics
claim the agency has become an
"international boy scout troop,"
where volunteers are closely super-

vised and "mothered" on the job.
This, it is contended, is borne out
in Peace Corps training, where potential volunteers are closely
watched and "brainwashed" by
Peace Corps psychiatrists.
The Peace Corps has to leave its
volunteers in the field pretty much
on their own. There simply is not

into his service, and what he gets
out of it, are up to him.

period is inescapable. Before sending a man to work in a foreign
country, the Peace Corps wants to
know why that individual wants to
serve and make sure that individual

knows why. An average of 12 weeks
is provided to teach a volunteer
a new language, specific skills needed for a specific assignment and

resiliency to "culture shock." The
training is armament for one of the
most individual jobs available anywhere in the world.
And the jobs are available. There
are more than 10,000 volunteers in
the field. Most of their host countries are asking for still more. Volunteers returning home having completed their service must be replaced.
Working conditions are not necessarily primitive. Volunteers live
in accommodations similar to citizens of their host countries who are
doing the same kind of work. Whereas a rural community development
worker in Latin America might well
have to "rough it," a college teacher in Nigeria lives in modern, spacious apartments.
Any American citizen 18 or over
is eligible for Peace Corps service.
There is no upper age limit. Married couples may serve if both qualify for the same project (not necessarily the same job) and have no
dependents under 18. There are no
foreign
language requirements.
Peace Corps service cannot replace

their ways of life on the line and go
