Congress To Study
Insurance Possibilities
Student Congress last night
voted to form a committee to
look into the possibility of establishing a, compulsory plan for
student insurance.
The decision was made on the
recommendation of Representative, Rick VVakeland, a member,
of the SC Student Insurance Committee. The decision was
to require a final committee recommendation by April
29, the last congress meeting date.
Barry Averiel, head of the
University Health Service, spoke
to the Congress concerning the
proposal. He noted that "a good
percentage of students enter the
University with some form of
family insurance. Our experience
at the Health Service, however,
has shown that 51 percent of the
students have no form of insurance of any kind," he added.
Benefits of the compulsory
plan he mentioned were:
The plan would cover those
students with no insurance.
The plan would make students aware of the type of insurance policy they now have
so that they would make certain
that they are adequately covered.
Rates could be reduced by
tailoring the plan to complement
the University's health coverage
under the UHS, because of the
healthy com"predominately
munity at the University," or
benefits and services could be
expanded and enlarged.
The coverage under the present University Health Service
fails to extend to students during academic recesses, hospitalization after 14 days, students
away from the University, students being treated anywhere else

Presumably, the committee's
report and the possible resulting passage by the congress would
constitute a recommendation to
the Board of Trustees that such
a plan be adopted.
In other action last night,
Representative Larry Kelley announced that the National Student Association, of which the
University Student Congress is
a member, sponsors two student
scholarships providing for study
abroad.
The first involves a trip to
Japan, Korea, and Hong Kong
from June 7 to July 10. Students are chosen for the trip
from the entire nation. The deadline for applications is April 1.
Applications can be picked up in
the Student Congress Office,
Room 102 in the Student Center.
The second trip is open to

The deadline for applications for this trip is April 15,

.Indonesian Program
May Close In 1966
By DAVID V. HAVVPE
Kernel Executive Editor

quite a victory for the Communist

Apparently the University's
Indonesian programs will close
by the end of the 1966 fiscal year.
An official of the Agency for
International Development, Calvin Cowles, said yesterday the
Indonesian Minister of Education
has informed AID the contracts
will not be renewed after that
date.
Some change in the status of
aid programs in Indonesia has
been expected for some time, in
light of the deteriorating U.S.
position in the southeast asian
country.
Mr. Cowles said the continuation of the program through the
coming fiscal year depends largely on the Indonesian government.
According to Mr. Cowles, the
Indonesians have asked that the
two Kentucky programs (one in
agriculture and one in engineering) and the University of California program in medical education be continued for one more
year. A similar program handled
by UCLA will be phased out in
June.
However, Mr. Cowles says
there are no new students leaving
Indonesia, and there must be
more students on the way before
the program can be extended one
more year.
Mr. Cowles said, "We are
waiting for a show of good faith
on the part of the Indonesian
government."
Funds will be available for the
coming year, if AID continues
the UK and California programs,
since the agency programs in
advance.
Some thought had been given
to placing the Kentucky and California teams under private sponsorship, but this plan was discarded when the major foundations began pulling out of Indonesia.
Both the Ford and Rockefeller foundations are discontinuing
their work there.
Mr. Cowles explained that
there are powerful forces at work
primarily the Communists attempting to isolate Indonesia
from the West, "and the elimination of such programs as the one
handled by Kentucky would be

Assoc. Prof. William Jansen,
coordinator of the UK program,
is in Washington today conferring
on the status of the project, and
he was unable to be reached for
comment.
Earlier Dr. Jansen had noted
that the UK team is being allowed
to stay longer than others. He
said this may be due to the location of the University's programs
in Bogor and Bandung.
He said that these two cities
are not areas of Communist
strength. He said, "In fact, in
these places the rightist elements
are strong."
The University provides assistance to the Technical and Scientific Faculties of the Institute of Technology at Bandung
and to the Faculties of Agriculture and Veterinary Science at the

The project is administered
by the Kentucky Research Foundation.
The University provides a"
team of professors and graduate
team of professors and administrators to aid in organization,
curriculum planning and the
tcacliingof some courses.
In addition, promising young
Indonesian professors and graduate students are sent to the
University of Kentucky and other
American institutions for advanced training.
There are about 65 Indonesian
students presently on campus at
the University.
These students return and take
places on the Indonesian faculties, which would, were the program continued, eventually produce an

Kidney Transplant
May Save Girl, 9

By WILLIAM GRANT
Covan orange bunny all the while, a
Clutching
ington girl made the trip to Lexington this week in a last ditch
attempt to save her life.
The girl, Brenda Hodges, was admitted to the University Hospital with uremic poisoning and kidney failure.
Both her parents are being tested at the Medical Center as
possible donors in a kidney transplant. The operation is the only
chance to save Brcnda's life.
The little girl has been slowly dying since she was hit by a
driver Feb. 9 near her Kenton County home.
She was treated at Children's Hospital in Cincinnati, and after
several operations there it was decided the only hope was a kidney
transplant.
Her mother, Mrs. Kathleen Hodges, said of the Cincinnati
operations, "They removed her spleen because it was ruptured and
they removed a blood clot from one kidney. They thought the other
kidney might be all right at first, but now it's gone too," she
said.
Her father Everett Hodges was on his way home when the accident occurred. Mrs. Hodges was in the hospital for a checkup.
The accident reportedly occurred as Brenda was walking on the
shoulder of the road, holding hands with her friend, when the
auto hit her.
"How the other girl didn't get hit we'll never know," Mis.
Hodges said, "but she didn't."
A
boy has since admitted that he drove the car and
has been charged with failure to stop and render aid.

prejudice, Kubrick has two
great assets: first, his experience with such films as "Strange-love- "
and "Lolita," and second,
the writing of author Arthur C.

Arthur C. Clarke has long

"Journey Beyond The Stars"

in Kubrick's own words, "It is
time to break away from the
cliches of Monsters and Madmen."
Perhaps with better writing,
such as Clarke's own sensitive
novel "A Fall Of Moondust,"
and the interest of men of Stanley Kubrick's caliber, science fiction will be able to change this
attitude at last.

Educators Looking At Negro Students' Needs

The Collegiate Tress Service
CHICAGO Educators are
taking a new look at the needs of
Negro students and their colleges
and have developed a number of
programs to assist the educational development of both. Among
them:
Northwestern University is
using a $150,000 grant from the
Fund for the Advancement of
Education to recruit promising
Negro students. The program will
enroll 20 students for each of the
next three years.
Teams of admissions officers
from 21 colleges in the New York
metropolitan area will visit the
city's high schools to help disadvantaged youngsters find their
way into college. This program
was announced by the National
Scholarship Service and Fund
for Negro Students.
Representatives of the American Society for Engineering Education, the University of Illinois,
and the nation's seven predominantly Negro colleges of engineering have recently met to consider
an expansion of educational opportunities for Negroes in engineering.
Special grants to Negro students have been stepped up in
medicine and dentistry.
A committee for the development of art in Negro colleges has
been founded under the direction
of Albert Eisen, art historian at
the University of Indiana, and
Jack Jordan, chairman of the department of fine arts at Southern
University.
The Association of American
Law Schools has created a minority groups project to counteract
the factors which have permitted
only a few Negroes and Puerto
Ricans to enter the legal profession. .

The Office of Education is
providing financial and technical
support for college and university
institutes at which teachers will
be specifically trained in
solving
educational problems related to
desegregation. This aid is part of
the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
The Office of Education has
also launched a program to assist
colleges and universities in organizing special institutes for those
who teach in schools largely populated by deprived youth and for
training persons entering the
teaching field. These institutions
are part of the National Defense
Education Act.

Negro liberal arts college in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, ha
