Music: An Oasis In The Desert

By W. H. McNEW
Were it not for the Univer-

sity Musicales, Lexington would
be more of a musical desert
than it is.
Sponsered by the Department
of Music, these free concerts have
often provided a bright contrast
to the perfunctory and sloppy
performances which have characterized this season's Concert Association offerings.
Friday night's musicale, one
of the best of the series, featured
the Chamber Singers treating
an appreciative audience to samplings from four centuries of vocal
music.
This attractive young group,
capably led by John Alexander,
achieved a degree of ensemble
remarkable for any chorus of a
score or so voices. Indeed, their
mellow sound was marred only
by a slight harshness at its top;

and this appeared only when
they were pressed for volume.
The Singers began with settings of religious texts by
Byrd, and Callus; but it
was the Bach motet, "Jesu.meine
Freude," which dominated the
first half of the program. The
motet was well sung, although
it seemed Mr. Alexander could
have given more emphasis to its
structure.
Three Debussy songs and a
round of Sixteenth and Seventeenth Century madrigals were
highlights of the concert's sec-r- Swee-linc-

This was even reflected by the
UCLA cheerleaders, a pep group

among both whites and Negroes
and demonstrated how entertaining the cheerleaders and the band
can be when both are coordinated.
UCLA cheerleaders had worked
up clever and imaginative choreography to renditions of popular

for years, a routine which Negroes
find not very flattering.
We might ask why the Univer- -'

(fit .

sity has never had a Negro cheerleader, but we would undoubtedly
receive the same doubletalk that
is dished out when we ask why
there are no Negroes in "white"
UK sorority or fraternity chapters,
why there is but one Negro on
the University faculty, or why the
basketball team has never been
integrated (after this season, the
old hogwash that there are no
Negro athletes available just won't
hold up!)
How strange that a University,
which supposedly has as its goals
the search for truth and the education of the whole man, can be so
narrow-minde- d
at times.
There can be little doubt as to
why CORE is considering making
Lexington a target city in its drive
for equal rights.

Letters To The Editor

Join Viet Vigil, Faculty Asked
To the Editor of the Kernel:
We write to express our hope
that more students, faculty and
local citizens from all concerned
groups will join in the weekly
Silent Vigil on Tuesdays at noon.
We have been pleased with past
turnouts for the Peace Vigil and
note the increase in size and the
appearance of new faces. A total
of 16 attended the first snow-rai- n
dampened vigil and 24, the second.
Four participants during the first
vigil were unable to attend last
Tuesday which means that 12 new
people came during this opportunity for personal expression. It is
hoped that the "ease of counting"
will be eliminated and the size of
the group will grow (North
Carolina's peace vigil has had an

estimated 4,000 participants).
Those who take part do so out
of individual concern and represent a wide range of opinions;
however, we all wish to express
our sorrow for and our protest
against the Vietnam War. We encourage the individual with the
slightest "cry of concern" to join
the vigil.
In addressing the faculty, we
must admit that as yet only one
member of the faculty has joined
this peace movement in expressing
their concern over the war in Vietnam. Does the faculty lack members opposed to the Vietnam War?
a-.A- y
Do faculty dissenters, like many
"living room activists," lack the
conviction or courage to stand up
t
for what they believe?
We believe that similarly concerned faculty members should obviously not be complimented nor be

The Quiel Vic lories
The University debate team is
to be commended for its quiet victories this year. This group truly
seeks achievement merely for the
sake of
and for
the honor of their University rather
than for splashy headlines and large
photographs in the local press.
The contributions of the debate
team to the academic atmosphere
of the University is far superior
to that of all athletic teams of the
past, present, and future lumped
into one. When The Kernel asked
two years ago, following UK's upset of Old Miss in a football contest, "What of Quieter Victories?"
this was just what we had in mind.

In my opinion, a coach is a
teacher and should act as one.
Rightly construed, the curriculum
includes athletics with the primary
objective being development and
growth of the student. Winning is
important but not primary.
From this point of view conflict
between coach (teacher) and player
(student) offers an excellent chance
for learning, not for "disciplining"
or retribution. Putting this in the
vernacular, it is a chance for the
coach to "catch the breaks" in the
interest of learning.
With the facts at my disposal
it seems to me that the least the
coach, as an established person,
should do is to reinstate the player
and allow him to reestablish himself. To do less may well be prejudicial to the University, the coach
and the player, but to the latter
least of all.
