presented this Saturday evening
amid spreads of lels, grass shacks,
and swaying palm trees.
Sponsored by Newman Club, the
festive university affair parallels
the gala New Orleanr , costume
celebration.
Wooden Polynesian figures,
beach and volcano scenes will
complete the tropic islpid vision.
Heralding the arrival of Lent
and deeper contemplation, Mardi
Gras Is the traditional final fling
of gayety. The object is merriment, enough to nee one through
the 40 days to follow.
This year's Mardi Gras Committee will attempt to revise the costume aspect of the ball. Masks,
confetti, horns, and other noise-make- rs
will be provided.
The ball has been a Campus
event since 1947. The affair began as a costume ball; gay outfits "nd masks were vital garb.
Later costumes were replaced by
tuxedos and formal attire. When
infoimal clothing took over, fraternities and sororities began entering small groups which performed skits. This aspect of the program has been discarded this year.
Any scenes conducive to carefree merrymaking have fit the
Mardi Gras mood. In recent years,

the dance of revelry has been 'set

the depths of Hades have also
been fathomed, complete with

Elsewhere over the weekend,

the PIKAs are entertaining with

Ten members of Alpha Tau

dances, a
series, an officers' workshop,
and counseling workshops are
someof the programs sponsored
by the Women's Residence Hall
Council.
Miss Connie Taylor, adviser to
the group, said the dances were
benig held to provide inexpensive
entertainment for all Interested
students.
"The first of our dances was
held last Saturday night," Miss
Taylor said. "We will sponsor another one at 8 p.m. this Saturday night in Boyd Hall. The admission price is 25 cents, and
it is open to all students.
"We are particularly interested
in more women comnig. At our
dance last weekend, there was
almost five times as many men as
women. Women students should
not feel badly about coming unescorted since it is expected at a
dance such as this."
The council, now in Its second
year, will sponsor a
series in about two weeks,
Miss Taylor said.
"Embry's Department Store will
have some of its employees demonstrate make-u- p
techniques and
hair styling. Later on we hope to
have some nationally known people to speak to women students
on
Miss Taylor said.
The council will sponsor a campus-wide
officer's workshop sometime later in the year.
"We held this same workshop
last year," Miss Taylor said, "and
since it was so successful, we decided to have it again.
"As we become better organized, we hope to provide more entertainment, such as these dances,
and more programs for all students," Miss Taylor added.

What Acceptable Standard

"Indent and single space." 'Tut
title here." "Skip a line." "Use an
underline instead of quotes." "A comma is not needed here." "Use brackets, not parentheses." "Use a period,
not a semicolon."
Such comments were scribbled
on many term papers returned to
University students toward the end
of last semester. They are the perennial imps which turn what a student
might consider his finest piece of
collegiate writing into a pile of red-- ,
black-- , and
paper with
a smoothly curved "C" on the title
page.
This frustrating thing not only
happens to students who have not
had adequate training in grammar
and the proper preparation of formal
papers; it frequently harasses those
who comprehend fully how to write
well. For example, consider those
journalism students whose knowledge
of grammar and whose ability to
make most writing more readable
have' enabled them to hold top positions on the Kernel copy editing
staff. It is not uncommon for them
to write papers which their instructors deem unsatisfactory in punctuation, form, style, and the like.
That this happens is not the basic
fault of the instructors or the students. It is the fault of the University,
which has no style manual for use
in all colleges and departments. Because of this situation, when a student writes a paper in accordance
with the standards prescribed by the
style manual he happens to favor and
blue-marke- d

grades the paper according to the manual he prefers,
conflict is inevitable and the resultant criticism of the paper can hardly
be fair.
We suggest that the Faculty consider this problem and authorize a
committee of qualified professors to
compile a University style manual to
be used by all students. Until this is
done, it is unrealistic for the University to insist that "teachers in all
courses are expected to call attention
to and penalize for errors in English
usage, and to require the rewriting
of papers which do not meet acceptable standards of English," as is stated in the General Catalog. For what
are the acceptable standards of English at the University?

"It is far safer to know too little
than too much. People will condemn
the one, though they will resent being
called upon to exert themselves to
follow the other." Samuel1 Butler.

man's conversation is, nine times out
of 10, to be found in that part which
he means to be clever." Edward Bui-uLytton.

Being one of the persons who several times a day has to run the Bose
Street gauntlet at the corner of Bose
Street and Bose Lane, a legal procedure, I believe, I have been concerned for some time over those poor
souls I constantly see trying to cross
Bose Street a bit farther south. Several weeks ago the Kernel mentioned
the dangers that exist for the many
students who find it "necessary to
cross between the Fine Arts Building
and the Chi Omega house.
The position taken by the Kernel
in calling for a solution to this problem is indeed praiseworthy, as is the
paper's renewed effort to have this
difficulty solved. In Tuesday's editorial you conceded that "no immediate solution is even in sight." This is
true, at least so far as Mr. Gabbard
seems to be concerned. However, if
he would like to show a real interest
in this problem, he would only need
to spend a little time and a moderate
to figure
amount of his "know-how- "
out an almost obvious solution. Such
a solution, of course, presupposes that
the city fathers are not too tight to
put a traffic light and paint a pair
of white lines across Bose Street at
the desired point.
I am well aware that Mr. Gabbard
has thrown up his hands at the idea
of installing a light so close to the
one at Columbia Avenue, stating that
such a light would throw the Bose
Street traffic into a complete melenge.
Such a result need not happen if the
light were syncronized with the one
at Columbia Avenue so that it would
stop Bose Street traffic only during
the latter part of the period when
Columbia Avenue traffic is freed.
There is enough space between Columbia and the Chi O's for 12 to 15
cars to line up. This is a greater
number than ever turn right onto
Bose Street from Columbia during
any one period. The delaying action
of the crosswalk light also would allow most of the Bose Street traffic
between the two lights to pass the

crosswalk before it turned red. By this
means traffic turning right from Columbia would find plenty of space
on Bose Street to line up before the
crosswalk light turned green again.
To install such a synchronous system would not even involve a new
The traffic department
controller.
would only have to set up a new program on the present one at Columbia
and run cables to the new light. Such
systems are in use in every large city
in the country. Would Mr. Gabbard
refuse to have a traffic light at that
location if a heavy traffic artery, such
as Euclid Avenue, crossed Bose Street
only that far from the Columbia light?
I haven't measured it, but I would
hazard that the distance between

Short and Main Streets downtown is
less than the distance under consideration here. It would also lx well
for Mr. Gabbard to consider the value
of the traffic, legal or otherwise, that
crosses Bose Street several hundred
feet north of Columbia Avenue.
Whether he wishes to admit it or not,
it is one of Lexington's major flows
of traffic.

Status Important Amidst Congo's Squalor
By PATRICK MASSEY

Feb. 16
the remote Congo village a gleaming
white refrigerator stood proudly in
the dust. A laughing Congolese woman swung open the door and extracted
a plateful of rotting fish.
"Now," she exulted, "We eat food
like the white man."
The inside of the icebox was hot
as an oven. It had not worked since
it was looted from the house of a
fleeing Belgian planter. It did nothing for the food except keep off flies.
Wliat counted was the image of
shiny splendor, the bright symbol of
independence which otherwise seemed to have brought few tangible
changes in the age-olpattern of
bush life.
The discarded trappings of white
men became badges of
status. Their use value is unimportant.
In some village huts can be found
piles of phonograph records but no
phonograph to play them. Sometimes
the women wear fashionable lingerie
over the top of their long native
robes.
The real taste of independence
comes through in the big towns where
