Registration and classification will nntlcrgo many changes
before next year, Dr. Charles F. Elton, Registrar and Dean of
Admissions, indicated yesterday.
"We won't do what we jnst did," Dr. Elton said. He blamed
himself for the confusion and attributed it to poor planning and
organization, saying "It's my fault."
Dr. Elton suggested that there wnse in coming back to Lexing.

The only way one can violate the parking

The change came after a recommendation by
the Student Congress Judicial Committee, made
to the Dean of Men's Office last May. The committee set the fine for the first offense at $25
and suspension from school for the second.
This recommendation was submitted to the

The trustees questioned the severity of the
regulation, and drafted the current regulation.
Dean Martin said, "The purpose of the regulation is not to collect fines, but to keep spaces
available for the faculty."
"Studies have shown," he continued, "that
freshmen and sonhomores who have cars have
a better chance of being on probation than those
without cars."
Another change made In the regulations reads
that all students registered as sophomores who

Coeds Living In Men 's Dorm
By ALICE AKIN'
Oirls living In a men's dorm? Might sound ridiculous to you, but not to the 83 coeds who are

According to them, there's nothing ridiculous
fllxnrt it they're actually there in the middle wing
of Uio building with only 10 inches of wall separating the genders.
Quite a lew of the female occupants express
their love for the place and say they would like to

me a lew who don't share the enthusiasm for living
in quarters designed for men.
(irubby showers, no doors on the toilets, one
phone to twenty girls, one ironing board, and no
hair dryer are a few of the girls' complaints, plus
the fact that there is a buzzer system lacking, which
KpniMimes makes dating perplexing.

In total darkness because the switch box was in
the men's area and they couldn't enter to turn it on.

statement and said. "Oh well, as long as we live in

a men's dorm, we might as well develop leg muscles."
As far as the r.elghboring males are concerned,
the pirls agree that all have been perfect gentlemen, and they have to admit that flattery is flowing
in abundance.
The transferred women seem to be taking the
situation in their stride, saying that it is a lot of
fun and the situation is a lot less gloomy than
they had expected.
On the oilier hand, girls who lived in women's
dorms last year say they mis-- their friends and Just

but nothing was done to ease the
registration Inmlen.
Dean of Admissions and liegistrar
Charles F. Elton said that he did
not underestimate the number of
new students, yet the registration
system was so overloaded it broke
down completely. Dr. Elton has
promised an evaluation of the list of
closed classes in an attempt to learn
why they were closed out so quickly.
While this is a step in the right
direction, we feel it is not enough.
An evaluation of the entire registration procedure is necessary if the
efficiency essential when processing
thousands of new students is to ever
le reached.
The University can scarce afford
another registration like this one.

The Great Debate

Nothing

And never was this better illustrated than in Monday night's soil a lied great debate between the two
j residential candidates,
Vice President Richard M. Nixon and Sen.
John F. Kennedy.
fn the old days, when Lincoln
rmd Douglas were having at each
other, a wagonbed or an improvised
grandstand was good enough for
l (taking history.
In this electronic age everything
horribly complicated.
i
Two hours before the debate
ftarled even thing was jumping in
this

sports arena where the
debate is being held.
In Studio 1, where Nixon and
Kennedy had seats only a few feet
from each other, carpenters were still
busily working on the backdrop, and
everyone in the room seemed to be
ihouting conflicting instructions.
The producer-director- ,
Don
Hewitt, kept shouting out such comments as these: "Can I see a wider
hot please," or "Let's pull that camera in closer."
While Hewitt was shouting out
ltis instructions, standing at the lectern lelonging to Nixon, a painter
was calmly putting black paint on
the stand. There was no explanation
f f what would happen should Nixon
brush against the wet paint.
One early mixup: Nixon asked for
a short lectern, Kennedy for a tall
one, and although there's only a half
inch difference in the height of the
two candidates Kennedy is C feet
end Nixon is 5 feet 11 .'Kennedy
wound up with the lectern five inches
Jiigher than Nixon.
At one point Hewitt shouted
bbove the confusion: "I'm happy if
jou're happy."

worried technicians bu'iling alxnit

Whose Student Congress?
We have noted with disapproval
a report of the Aug. 19 meeting of
the Executive Committee of the University Board of Trustees at which
recommendations calling for a general tightening of regulations governing student motor vehicles were
enacted.
Particularly stringent was a
regulation providing for
a fine of $10 for the first violation of
the student driving and parking regulations, $25 for the second offense,
and expulsion from the University for
the third.

that would cause envy in the Pentagon.

and everybody was
supposedly accounted for on a huge
Even-thin-

diagram.

The big studio, for instance, where
the historic battle was being staged,
had been measured to the fraction
of an inch.
It's exactly 79 feet 93j inches long
feet 1054 inches wide. Until
and
a month ago, this was where professional wrestlers held their own historic battles.

Each person who was anywhere
near the scene had to be badged and
passed on by security officers.

While these penalties were eventually reduced by the loard to $5,
$10, $25, and expulsion, we were still
displeased because the original recommendation was made by the Student Congress Judiciary Committee.
The Student Congress Judiciary
Committee is an autonomous body
operating outside the congress and is
not responsible to the lxxly that appoints it. It operates in conjunction
with the Dean of Men's Office and
the administration has granted it
exclusive authority to deal with campus driving and parking regulations.
In this capacity it is able to make

Worse Than Soap Operas

,

Never mind why, but if you were
here as a guest of Kennedy, yon
were wearing a gray badge. If you
were a friend of Nixon, you were
wearing blue. In either case it didn't
matter. Neither a blue nor a gray
nor even a purple badge would get
you inside this No. 1 studio.

That required a red badge, and
only three of us reporters, some still
pliotographers, the cameramen, and
allowed into the sacred premises.
Everyone else was watching the
show on television in nearby studios.
The TV monitor sets enabled them to
see loth candidates at once.
Indeed, the whole thing was so
complicated, CHS asked us all to
what it called an informal drop-ilunch downtown Monday so we could
peer at a colored road map of the
place. Or, to use CBS' own wording:
n

"Visual briefings on facilities and
the studio set will be available to

interested members of the press."
No one thought of preliminary
visual briefings for Lincoln and
Douglas. Vet after all these years
what the)' said still makes good

recommendations directly to tho
Board of Trustees. The Judiciiry
Committee was exercising its privilege of making recommendations;
directly to the lxurd in asking for tho
enactment of harsher student parking regulations.'
The autonomy of the committee
is so great, however, that it need not
even consult with Student Congress
or its officers before making
in the name of tho
congress. This, we feel, is contrary
to the principles of the American
form of government. Some manner of
checks and balances is needed in student government. As in the federal
governmental system, all branches 06
student government should Ix apprised of the activities of the ntliers.
Student Congress has a difficult
enough task confronting it in having
to restore student confidence in it
without having to combat the ill will
generated by the recommendation
of a body which bears its name yet
is not responsible to it.
We realize that the Judiciary
Committee must work closely with
the administration but it would bo
well for its members to remember tho

"student" in Student Congress.

One might le glad of the passing
of soap operas from the radio if the
change were for the letter.
But it is nut. In most cases what
will take their place are programs of
"popular" records. The soap operas, if
not of the highest artistic standards,
were mostly moral. What is on the hit
parade is usually in low taste, often
demoralizing, and sometimes downright
immoral.

It is not fair to say this is the taste
of teenagers.. It is what they have been
guiled into liking by the musical dope
pushers, who, with no thought aliove the
dollar, appeal to the lowest common
denominator.
If there were lio musical dope pushers, it would not be right to leave the
selection of music to the uninformed
taste of' the young. Good taste comes

only through education, and sound education comes only from adults who h.ivo
studied the history of human thought
and achievement and have learned tho
values that endure.
Responsible adults alone are equipped to select the records which should
