The Fugs would lyricize the

And the Who will, of course,

Where is pop music going?
Where it's going began with
a two pronged attack: from
England and the West Coast.
The Beatles made a hit with
a string quartet and a single
voice in "Yesterday." And the
West Coast started the drug
kick which caused men to look
into music and to change musicand to let music change
them.

The result is that the tradipattional, two minute,
terned song once sacred is
now used primarily satirically,

You can characterize this music:
Drugs usually appear in the

songs, like "I feel
like I'm fixin' to die 'rag " by
Country Joe and the Fish.
Surrealism. Gravie Slick of
the Jefferson Airplane is good
at this listen to "Two Heads"
on their album, "After Bathing

Sex. Listen to any of the
Doors' lyrics.
Noise. "Blue Cheer" three

Inner Wall Poetry
To the Editor of the Kcmcl:
Since the Inner Wall is making a
mockery of my field of study, I would
like to protest. Why is it that anyone
at this University who can const met
an English phrase (often misspelled and
ungrammatical) thinks he has written
ixictry? The
poetry in the Inner
Vall gets worse and worse.
Being an English graduate student,
I would not attempt to write an article
on physics, math, chemistry, or a large
number of other subjects. Yet undergrads
and grads alike, in any field, think they
have every right to "express" themselves
in garbled form and then call it a poem.
In the March 7 edition of the Inner
Wall, for example, I noticed the following misspellings (and I may have missed
some!): outragious for outrageous, hidious
for hideous, prominant for prominent,
recide for reside (all from Mike Stout),,

Apathy At MorchcacI

To the Editor of the Kernel:
Sliortly after the time last December
when I told Mr. David Brown, journalism instructor and adviser to the More-hea- d
State University Trailblazcr, that
I believed students should have a strong
role in running a campus newspaper
and that the college newspaper should
discuss controversial subjects, I was told
in a letter from President Adron Doran
that my services would not be needed
next year. President Doran says there
was no discussion about my employment
beyond a year. I say there'was.
Since Feb. 10, when I stated publicly
in Lexington that I felt academic freedom,
as I think of it (free speech, free assembly
for students and faculty, etc.), is not
much in evidence at MSU,at least for
some of us who have made statements
that differ with majority opinion, acts
of intimidation against me and several
of my collegues (see Kernel stories) have
convinced me that my opinion was correct, that academic freedom, at least
for me, does not exist on the Morehead
campus.
In the past two issues of the More-hea- d
News, a newspaper that, to say
the least, has not been unfriendly to President Doran, has published highly inflammatory articles and a photo, seemingly designed to muster local and campus opinion against me, a colleague, and
a student in one of my classes, and I
might add a good one.
The four, front-pag- e
articles in the
Morehead News (March 7, 1968) appeared
to imply that a Free Discussion meeting
set up at the Rowan County Court House
would be attended by people bent on
violence. One of the articles quoted the
Morehead Mayor as saying "we are" ready
anytime, all that is necessary is one
telephone call." The paper did not talk
with me nor to the two qthers to whom I
have referred.
