LEXINGTON,

JFK Appoints
Group To Aid
Jobless Youth

fix

President Kennedy yesterday appointed a presidential commute?
to help young people find Jobs,
saying he is disturbed over tlie
serious plight of the nearly otie
million
and
youth."
The President declared that "our
youth are our greatest resource."
He said the continued unemployment among a million young Job
seekers today and the prospect that
many millions will enter the labor
force in the next few years demand
Immediate attention and action.
The
committee on
youth employment is headed by
Secretary of Larxr Arthur J.
Goldberg and includes other members of the cabinet concerned with
ycuth, labor leaders, and other
puolic members.

In a White House statement later, the President noted "certain
bright spots" in the employment
situation nationally, bilt said he
is still not satisfied over the unemployment rate "which has remained at about 6 8 per cent seasonally adjusted lir the last 11
months."
In a letter to the President,
made public by the White House,
Goldberg said the "nearly one million
youth under 21
years of age looking for Jobs" present "one of the most disturbing
aspects of our entire unemployment picture."
He said the problem was further aggravated by the fact that
during the decade of the GO'S
"over 26 million young people will
be entering the labor market looking for Jobs."

Art Initiation Is Useless,
Professor Tluirsz Says

Contemporary artists who are aware of tradition are
vinced that imitation of an art style is useless.

This statement was made Tuesday night by Frederick M. Thursz,
assistant professor of art, at a
meeting of the Humanities Club.
"The meaningful periods in
tradition have been those of
common cultural intensity in
art and society," the Casablanca-bor- n
artist said, pointing to the
Classical, Gothic, Renaissance,
and Baroque periods.
Art was imitation in classical
times, he pointed out, because the
work of art was Just an imitation
of what is to be seen. It was
subordinate to the god it personified.
"A Renaissance work was a product of an observant intelligence."
he said. "The artist became im- -

con-

portant to a secular society, and
his woik was in demand. The
painter was poet, philosopher, and
scientist, and set a standard which.
could rarely be equaled in the following centuries."
Prof. Thursz went on to say
that Baroque art was the ideal
form for the Counter Reformation. It insisted upon an essential unity of the people and the
artist, and drew the desired
emotional responses of its artist
and public.
"In the times of impressionist
art, Paris was gay and full of enthusiasm," Prof Thursz continued.
"So is the art. Artists learned that
within the spirit and craft of the

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15 CAP)

Dr. James B. Conant, former
president of Harvard University,
was named vice chairman. He recently made a study of urban condition and said young people out
of school and out of work constitute "social dynamite."
The President met this morning
with Goldberg and other members
of the newly-formf- d
committee.
Goldberg said the gTOiip hopes to
report before Congress reconvenes
Jan. 10. It will meet eain Dec. 14.

Dr. John C. Ball, associate Dro- fessor of sociology, in his recent
of Juvenile delinquency in
metropolitan area.
Dr. Ball's study, the first of its
type to be made in Kentucky, was
based on the 350 boys and girls
who appeared before the Fayette
County Juvenile Court in 1958.
Of those appearing in the
court, 85 percent were boys, 15
percent were girls. Eighty-tw- o
percent were between the ages
of 13 and 17. but the ages ranged
from 6 to 18.
The number of boys appearing
In court represented 4.8 percent
of the total male population in
Lexington between the ages of 13
and 17.
Dr. Ball said the number of arrests were almost twice the number of court cases.
"In a given year," he stated,
"approximately 10 percent are
arrested or appear in court."
These figures are comparable to
those reported in 1959 by the U.S.
Senate Judiciary Committee, which
estimated hat 20 percent of the
male population is likely to ap- pear in court before adulthood.
Dr. Ball maintains that juvenile
court s atistics seriously understate

..No studies had been made be- cause most juvenile courts did not
have the funds nor the research
personnel to do it.
"Only now are people beginning1
to realize the extent of the delinquency problem and the need
for research in this field."
Dr. Ball said the principal
need now in helping to correct
the delinquency problem is obtaining detailed, accurate and
comprehensive information.
He suggested two steps that must
be taken to secure the needed information :

1. Establish
a bureau of Juvenile delinquency in each state
whose principal function would be
to supervise and compile detailed
statistics for the state,
2. Undertake
carefully designed
studies pertaining to particular
aspects of delinquency such as the
causes of Juvenile crime or the ef- fects of treatment
.
Dr Ball condudpd that tne

nlle delinquency could be accurate-populatio- n.

ating unique moods.
"After the painting was finished,
its existence was questioned by its
own. means; paint, brush stroke,
within their own physical limits.
One of the greatest painters of
this period, Paul Cezanne, felt that
the unity of a work of art was its
own autonomous structure," the
speaker said.
The Cubist art movement in
the early 20th century pointed
out that painting what one knew
about an objeet rather than what
one saw at a single glance, or
from a single vantage point, was
the end of imitation, Prof. Thursz
added.

Lexington women and student's
living in the dormitories are
made twin sisters under this
program in order to strengthen
between the two
friendships
groups.
The program provides that local
girls may use their twin sisters'
rooms between classes instead of
returning home and that the girls
in the dormitories might have the1
opportunity to visit their sisters'
"""
homes.
Suggestions are presented by the
YWCA. However, the activities of!
the twin sisters will depend on
the girls themselves.

shapes which are no longer imitations of natural forms still confuse the viewer.
"After 50 years, the role of art
as pure painting instead of imitation is controversial to the artist
and public," Prof. Thursz said.
"Abstract art will be challenged in
the same manner that imitative
art was questioned."

the semester is nearly over and you still haven't set foot in the
place. Shame on you!
Ixt--

Nut it's not too late. Right now, this very minute, before
you weaken, lift up your head and forward march to the place
you have been avoiding ever since school begun. I refer, of
course, to the library.
Now here you are at the library. That wasn't so bad, was
it? Of course not! Go inside. What do you see? A sign that says
"NO SMOKING." Go outside. Light a Marlboro. Smoke.
Go back inside.
Because now you are ready. Now your trembling resolution
is rigid. Now your pulsing psyche is serene. You have been
calmed by mild Marllwro. You have been soothed by that fine
sclectrate filter, by tliat fine full flavor that dotes and pampers
and caresses, that lifts the fallen, repairs the shuttered, straightens the Ix'iit, unravels the knotted, rights the askew, and
fastens the unbuttoned.
In the center of the library you see the main circulation desk.
Look in the card catalogue for the numWr of the Iwiok you
want, write the numlter on a slip, and hand it to the efficient
and obliging young lady at the desk. The efficient and obliging
young lady then gives the slip to an efficient and obliging page
who trots briskly back into the stacks, curls up on a limp
leather cncyelojx'dia, and sleeps for an hour or two. Then,
puffy but refreshed, he returns your slip to the efficient and
obliging young lady at the desk, who tells you one of three
'
tilings: a) "Your book is out." b) "Your book is at the bindery."
c) "Your book is on reserve."
Having learned that the circulation desk hasn't the least
intention of ever parting with a look, let us now go into the

Skip Harris may look like she's thinking of catching up on sleep during next
week's Thanksgiving Vacation. But this
could only be dreaming because we
know what she WILL be doing.
Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday
will more than likely be dedicated to
the annual Homecoming preliminary of
poking crepe paper into chicken wire.
Or perhaps she'll be a member of the
g
paste-mixin- g
or
committees. In any case, she won't be making
up for sleep lost during midterms.
After the work on the floats for the
parade is over, the partying will begin.
There will be a pep rally Friday evening
and various events Friday night. In addition to work parties, several sororities
and fraternities are planning jam sessions for Homecoming Eve.
A

parade featuring floats and the

Homecoming Queen contestants riding
in convertibles is scheduled for ten
o'clock Saturday morning. Two o'clock
is game time and a combination of Tennessee and Homecoming should be a
winner in anybody's book. The Homecoming Queen and her attendants will
be presented and float trophies will be
given out at half-timAfter the usual Homecoming celebration activities, Skip will use this cuddly
robe for recuperation from an extended
week-en- d
instead of the usual four-da- y
sleep marathon taken by UK students
during Thanksgiving.
This fluffy blue robe from Hymson's
is made of a wonderful pile fabric. It
is washable and wrinkle-resistan- t.
Don't
you love those crazy fur houseshoes that
Skip is wearing? This is a perfect combination for cold weather.

Discipline Is Necessary
lxard

Some 130 basic cadets came before the Air Force ROTC Wing Evaluation Board last week to give account
bf themselves. They were charged
With not working off demerits.
Under the new demerit system
initiated by Col. Richard C. Boys,
professor of air science, cadets must
march off demerits. The old system
of taking permanent demerits at the
work-of- f
end of the
period
instead of marching them off is gone.
Col. Boys said he felt the old system did not offer the discipline it
should since it provided an alternative.
We feel the cadets have no reason
to complain about being brought before the evaluation board. One thing
a college student should learn is discipline, and, as Col. Boys indicated,
the cadets must learn discipline if
their outfit is to be militarily acceptable.
The demerit system and the evaluation board are fair. However, there
are probably some squad leaders who
abort their opportunity to be leaders
by giving demerits for other than disciplinary and correctional reasons.
S6me dole out demerits just to be
giving them out. This, of course, is
grossly unfair and unwarranted.
Regulations require the cadets to
attend drill at 7 a.m. in Barker Hall
to work off demerits. If a cadet fails
to work off a demerit within the
period, he is ordered before the
evaluation board and one of three
courses of action is taken:
1. Four to 10 additional demerits
are issued.
2. Work-of- f
period is extended.
3. The offense is dropped.
This is a disciplinary measure
necessary to keep military units looking sharp, but is it necessary on a
university campus? Yes, because UK
is a
institution and required to offer ROTC. This does not
mean, however, that all male students
should be compelled to take ROTC.
Furthermore, students should not
be dropped from the University if
they fail to fulfill the ROTC requirement. Cadets appearing before the
two-wee- k

evaluation
have a first warning. Upon the next offense, they appear before a tactical officer who
exercises action similar to that of the
evaluation lx)ard. If the cadet commits a third offense he comes before
the professor of air science. The
course of action which may be taken:
disenrollment from AFROTC. This
ultimately means disenrollment from
the University.
This, we feel, is a gross misconception on the part of the University
and the AFROTC since the program
is compulsory for all male students.
We have no quarrel with the
AFROTC program otherwise. If someone wants to take on military shackles
while in college, that is his privilege.
However, some students have
other endeavors and do not wish to
lend the necessary time to such a
program since their interests lie else- -

One World Adoration
r.y

RILL MARTIN

To The Editor:
It has been several frosty nights
in Ole Kentucky since Dr. Ainry
Vandenhosch came forth with his proposal that Kentucky history be
dropped from the Commonwealth's
elementary schools' course of study.
Since then the people throughout
the state have had time to consider
this proposal and form an opinion
on it. From the hinterland of Mercer
County comes this reply through the
annals of the llarwdsburg Herald.
Col. George Chinn, giving his
opinion on the idea says:
"I think that some sort of low
water mark has been reached in intellectual absurdity when Dr. Vandenhosch practically made this demand.
"In lieu thereof a universalized
hogwash of wide world adoration for
everyone except ourselves in which
the believer must first divest himself of any semblance of local or even
national pride and look with utter
contempt on the accomplishments of
their forefathers.
"As a substitute for realistic thinking there are those who drool over
the Utopian picture of the "one
world" theory, that starts with the
molasses spring and ends with the
hot biscuit bush-anausea.
"Their double helping of sugar
coated brotherly love by and for
everybody is hard to visualize in this
state whose citizens have participated
rather freely in all the public wars
and in one or more private ones.
Imagine, because it smacked of sectionalism, of doing away with our
bdoved song, "My Old Kentucky
Home" and in its place have an a
capella rendition of the mating call
of a frustrated Mau Mau.
"The only sensible question raised
was 'wouldn't it be highly in order
for the legislature to investigate as to
how much of this mental smorgaslord

is being forced on Kentucky youngsters?'
"However, let it be recorded in
letters of gold that the learned doc tor
brought to light that he was not born
in Kentucky! A fact that henceforth
and fiom now on we will all point
to with unabashed pride.
"My history teacher in the Braxton elementary school always reminded the class at the start of each
scnicste r . . . 'you will soon find out
that their are two different sets of
Bonnes recorded in the pages of Kentucky's colorful history Daniel and

d

two-wee-

first acted as a cutting
his kind-wedge of a tool forged on the anvil
of fate and wie lded by the hand of
destiny that hewed out a pathway
into the wilderness empire so that
they and the ir descendants could stay
and help build a proud Commonwealth. Following Daniel, after everything was safe, came Bab ami his big
mouthed cohorts who contributed
nothing-a- nd
generally arrange to
overstay the ir welcome."
Following this opinion the Danville Kintuthj Advocate picked it up
and re (curd to Col. Chinn as the
"Sage of Mundy's Landing."

course and experience military discipline if the school he attends is not
a military academy?

All Acceptable Calendar
Despite a proclamation last week
by Asian astrologers that the world
will come to an end on Feb. 2, 1962,
the University Faculty has displayed
amazing courage and approved the
calendar for 1962-63- .
Actually, the Faculty has done an
exceedingly good job in planning the
next academic year and deserves the
praise of students.
Specifically, the new calendar will
includ
