By CAROLE MARTIN

Assistant Managing Editor
The Christmas Mason is supposedly typified by the spirit of
giving; actually it Is the most important time of the year to be
selfish.
Not, mind you, selfish to the
point of unduly t disregarding
others, but selfish to the point of
driving more carefully.
Let your personal slogan for this
festive season read "Be selfish; be
safe." Selfishness conld prove the
most altruistic quality you possess,

with the safety of others because
it seems a little too abstract, contemplate seriously your own well

Speaking Of Student Congress
Or, LeCs Have
By BOBBIE MASON

In observing our otherwise benevolent student body and its attitude toward certain student elections, I am
reminded of worse situations on other
campuses.

"The NDEA affidavit is superfluous at best, and discriminatory and
subversive of the act at worst. Such
an affidavit creates no inhibitions for
any genuine Communists; it will not
keep them out of the program. . . .
But it does keep out those who resent such a requirement, those who
are apprehensive in their interpretation, those who are conscientiously
opposed to test oaths, and those who
consider the disclaimed affidavit a
tbridle upon freedom of thought. . . .
It is distasteful, humiliating, and un- '
workable to those who must administer it."

As nebulous as the term "Americanism" is, we wonder how a supposed, patriotic organization could

I'm sending the enclosed editorial for
your interest.
I understand this sorry story received an eight column head in the
Kentucky edition (of the Enquirer)

This editorial does. make a couple
of valid but disturbing points about
students in general that can't be dismissed lightly.

Reelection

And, as if two parties were not
enough for a political brawl, the
Yoga Party, misrepresented by write-i- n
candidate Navel Nerve, is against
lip service to all causes, mainly because Nerve himself sponsors the best
lip service in town aU kinds of remedies for fractured lips, bruised lips,
radiant lips, tulips, and every other
variety of passion symbols.
If elected Nerve promises to attend his own lynching, at which he
will perform the lotus position.
Nerve's principal aim is to stre'ss the
importance of sanforized wash cloths
in stomach cleansing by the Yoga
methods. Nerve was formerly "rf child
prodigy employed by the Psychology
Department.
What? Another reelection?.
The Faculty is running?
Oh, from the students.

The news that fans of the New York
Giants streamed out on the field while
the football game with the Cleveland
Browns was still in progress leaves
one with a disgusting feeling over
the American people.
They will scream and go into hysterics over a football victory and sit
apathetically while the nation's schools
struggle to match the stepped up program of the Soviet Union.
It's a strange and sorry world.

We are in complete agreement with
the English Department that poetry,
good poetry, that is, has its place in
a University atmosphere. We would
not even attempt to refute the fact
that the poetic experience requires a
profound understanding of the world
and human nature.

The fad Is on for more and
more costume Jewelry, and UK
coeds find it appealing.
The first trickle of talk about
the trend toward a mass display of
sparkling stones began when Doris
Day's movie, "Pillow Talk," was
viewed. In her movie she wore
a different set of jewelry to com
pllment each costume.
