Kernel Staff Writer
In the fall of 1964, Dr. Robert
M. Murphy was in his tenth year
as chairman of Syracuse University's School of Journalism.
Today, he is chairman of the
University School of Journalism.
If asked why he left Syracuse for
UK, he'll tell you "it was because things are changing at UK,
which means opportunities to

Or, "I felt there was a desire
here to do something worthwhile
in communications. It was hard
to leave. I liked it there."
He'll also tell you, with little
prodding, what he thinks about
journalism schools in general and
UK's in particular.
For instance, Dr. Murphy
believes all journalism schools
should more effectively relate
themselves to the total university.
"Our goal is to turn out an
educated person, not just a news
specialist," said Dr. Murphy.
"To do this we need to use all
the university."
A
critical writing course

students would
be an example of this suggested
interdepartment relation.
"In fact," Dr. Murphy said,
"it's hard to think of any department that can't contribute
to a journalism school."
Journalism schools are often
criticized for having faculties connewsroom
sisting of
castoffs. Dr. Murphy disagrees,
says most journalism school
faculties stack up well with other
department faculties. And most
journalism instructors could hold
their own in the newsroom, he
said.

"We (UK) have more of these
teachers than many schools," he
said.
UK's School of Journalism
has, in Dr. Murphy's opinion, a
good faculty and solid, thought-provokin- g
courses. What it does
not have and, he said, needs more
than anything else is a graduate
program. Expressing an opinion
that he said is common in the
journalism faculty, Dr. Murphy
said, "A graduate program would
make for a better undergraduate
program and make possible
needed research."

* An Ounce Of Prevention
Minor inconveniences like being
without electricity for 15 hours can
be expected in an area so complex
as the University campus. Indeed
the campus is a community within
itself, and is not immune to such
mechanical difficulties.
Attempts can and should be
made to prevent them, however.
cables
Deteriorating,
were blamed for the blackout that
struck residence halls Monday and
Tuesday. Periodic inspection likely
would have signalled the upcoming
trouble. The chief campus electrician even warned, such trouble
could be expected because of the
age of the underground lines. Why,
then, wasn't the problem anticipated, and why weren't steps taken
to prevent a power loss?
The answer seems to lie in the
University bureaucracy's relationship with private companies that
serve the campus. Responsibility for
inspection, service, and repair of the
power lines apparently was not
established. When the cables failed,
University maintenance officials
were faced with a dilemma what
to do, and who would do it.
Although lights went off about
noon Sunday, Kentucky Utility

"Anvhow, I Guess I Haven't Lost Any Ground"

crews did not start emergency repairs until almost dark.
Others, not directly involved in
the dilemma, went to work immediately. Lexington firemen set
up generators without saying
"can't," as one UK official said.
Stanley Blakeman, in charge of
general dorm maintenance, purchased candles and flashlights for
dorm residents and counselors. Extension cables located in UK warehouses were stretched to provide
power for emergency lighting. A
study hall was set up in Haggin
Hall, unaffected by Sunday's blackout.
Lights finally flashed on about
3 a.m. Monday. When darkness
fell again and use of lights strained
the temporary lines, the housing
units were darkened again. Other
buildings were affected this time,
but power was restored within an
hour.
Housing officials who reacted
quickly to the situation and prevented what could have been chaos
are to be praised.
But criticism is due other University personnel who, either out of
neglect or ignorance, let the power
problem develop.

Optional Tickets Fairer
When the Cooperstown complex was converted from married
to single student use, some students expected to be able to do
their own cooking. The units,
used only last school year by
married couples, are equipped with
complete, modern kitchens.
When students were assigned to
the complex, however, they were
informed that they would be required to buy a University meal
ticket, even though the units were
equipped for meal preparation. The
students were required to enter a
one year food contract with the
University, since food purchases are
made on an annual basis.
The rationale behind such a
move seems hazy as UK food service

Certainly not all the students
would prefer to do their own cooking. Some of the women likely
would. Many Cooperstown residents have complained that walking to dining halls in extremely
cold weather is indeed a bother.
Student Congress, among others,
has proposed a change in policy
for spring semester. But, alas, the
mighty budgeting procedure, unalterable and demanding that food
contracts be made on an annual
basis, prevents this.
We think that the University
should discontinue this unfair
practice for the next school year,
and let the students know now
that meal ticket purchase will be
optional.

The proposed road plan for Lexington shows two proposed expressways (dotted lines) handling traffic through the city and completion
of the circumferential highway (conplctcd segment is the black
line, proposed the dotted line).

Rose Street Traffic
Traffic pile-up- s
on Rose St. are a typical afternoon and morning sight for campus drivers. This
exit from the University to Rose is regarded r.
man assumes completion of the
expressways.
The University apparently
hopes to close Rose as one of the
first steps in development. Real
property east of Rose has first
priority on the University's ac-

quisition list.
Also, the University is getting
increased pressure to close Rose,
which has proved itself a threat

to pedestrians. Last year two
coeds were injured crossing Rose
and a portion of Euclid also proposed for closing.
Exit to Rose from a main
University entrance is also a
potential traffic danger. One
minor accident occurred only
last month.
"We think the University has
done an excellent job in preparation of the campus plan and are
anxious to cooperate with them
as well as we can, but the streets
the University wants to close are
city streets, serving Lexington
citizens as well as the University,
and this must be considered," Mr.
Quails explained.
"Closing a segment of Rose
would be like cutting a water
pipe," Mr. Quails said. "You
have to find someplace else for
the water to flow."
Another major problem facing
planners is the sewer system in
the area east of Rose. Because of
the geological limestone base
underlying the Bluegrass area,
sewers are more difficult to build
and maintain in Lexington than
in some other areas. The limestone tends to dissolve rapidly,
undermining structual support
for sewer lines.

According to Vice President
Business Affairs Robert F.
Kerley the dormitory complex
now under construction should
tax to the limit available sewer
facilities. Lexington is now sponsoring a study of the entire city
sewer system, and the University
has commissioned a private
engineering firm to make a study
of utilities in the campus development area.

Discussions between the University and the city on traffic and
other problems have just begun.
The first were a series of city-Useminars held last year at the
Christmas vacation period.
Mr. Quails said none of the
Lexington planners were consulted by University planners in
preparation of the developmental
scheme and only within the last
month have seen the plan in full.
But, according to Mr. Kerley,
"You have to have some definite
plan before it can be discussed."

What Underlies Student Rebellions?
By KELLY SMITH
NEW YORK (AP)-- A college president

claims American colleges and universities
fail to channel idealism. The result:
drinking, sexual promiscuity and
rebellion.
Dr. John Howard of Rockford (111.)
College blames uninterested administrators, sororities and fraternities and
misunderstanding of academic freedom for
atypical behaviors.
Idealistic students, he says, may be
full of energy and drive but hit a stone
wall in trying to express it in the classroom. Dismal and angry with their campus
world, they lurch out for new modes of
expression.
In an Eastern girl's school, a student
sneaks off for a weekend. In Berkeley,
Calif., students demand freedom of spet h.
Coeds march with signs reading: "Send
No Men to Vietnam."
"Parents sacrifice to give their children
sit-in- s,

'
everything they need. They buy them cars
and send them to the right schools. The
youngster grows up always on the receiving end.
"His dreams are built on bigger
receipts for him."
He goes to college. "The student wants
to utilize his knowledge and power,"
says Howard. And this, he says, is where
the rebellion is quelled, channeled, or
erupts.
Howard is quick to point out not all
colleges fail, nor does any school fail
completely. But almost everywhere restlessness prevails.
His solution includes more creative
outlets in the form of discussions with
adult speakers, college
adults-professofficials -- as well as professional psychiatric services for the student with real
problems.
"In the absence of clearly perceived
and deep rooted commitments, there's a
ors,

tendency to hedonism and cynicism,"
says Howard. The college or university,
he says, has the job of helping a student
form commitments, not thwart them.
Excessive sex exists, but he says "we
can't be Victorian and think w e keep them
away from sex by longer dinners and lots
of exercise."
A year ago Rock ford's student government asked for "open dorms," which
would allow girls to visit boys' rooms.
