Who Says We Don't Read Books?

Some of the approximately 80 students who took advantage of a
book giveaway Wednesday morning at the Library push, squeeze,
and crowd around the khelves to find something they like. Hun-dreof volumes were donated by a University alumnus to encourage student book collecting.

Carpenter said.
At present the University is

Dean Carpenter said that practically all the funds will be used
for next semester, and the University won't receive another check
from the government until July,

the students applying for loans
for the fall semester, 1961

Of 18 students polled on Friday,
f very one said he thought the new
program is an excellent idea and
that it is a vast improvement over
the past procedure often forcing
students to stand in lines for
hours.
Bob Walters, agriculture fresh

registering. I'd sure hate to wait
In that line again this semester."
Leslee Armstrong. Arts and Science freshman, when asked her
pinion of the new program, said
"I think it's a real improvement.
If it helps to eliminate all that
waiting in line, I'm for it."
J. B. Jones, engineering junior,
thought that "It's a very good
idea. It should help to clear up
some of the confusion."
"I think it's really great," said
Sandra Beiderbrecke, home economics Junior. "I know I intend

to take advantage of the oppor- tunity."
Henry Tribble, Arts and Sciences
sophomore, echoed the feelings of
the other students "I m glad to
it, he said. 'I hope it will

Why Not Judo?

The University Faculty will soon
meet to study a request tliat a judo
club be recognized as a campus organization.
Such recognition has Ix'en opposed, we understand, on the grounds
that judo is a dangerous sport that
can lead to the serious physical injury
of participants. Because of the many
misconceptions concerning judo that
have sprung up, we feel some clarification is necessary.
The judo practiced by the judo
club would be sport judo, not jujitsu
or kurate, both of which are forms
of judo which emphasize injuring an
opponent and are used for
Anyone using his knowledge of
judo to deliberately harm another is
automatically expelled from any judo
club. Expulsion from the University
judo club would lead to suspension
from all judo clubs and associations
and loss of all judo rank.
Fred Waddell, holder of a black
belt in judo, has informed us that in

the three years students have been
practicing judo at the University
there have been far fewer judo injuries than have occurred in either
intramural football or basketball. The
large number of broken bones, concussions, and other injuries suffered
by participants in the intramural program over the past few years compares unfavorably with the number
of judo injuries (all of which were
minor) suffered at the University.
A number of universities not only
have judo clubs, but also offer judo
as a physical education course. Judo
has even become an intercollegiate
sport in California. Closer to home is
the University of Louisville judo club
which will reportedly enter intercollegiate competition soon,
The facts presented by us are suf- ficient in themselves to repudiate the
argument that judo is too dangerous
for the University students and we
urge the Faculty to approve the judo
club's petition.

Readers Discuss Long Letters, Coeds

No Readership
To The Editor:

Mr. Morris, you have done it
again. You have once more written
a letter in which you have included
so many involved thoughts, so many
complicated illusions, and so many
"big words" that 90 percent of the
student body has again not dug "you.
For shame, Mr. Morris, you won't
remain popular long at this rate.
Always remember, fellow, when you
are creating your journalistic gems,
that you are writing not only to me
but also to some five thousand other
people on campus, and these other
five thousand, it seems, find your letters dry, scholarly, extremely stiff, and
not a bit humorous. This, old boy,
is not what one might term a healthy
situation, for as you lose readers Mr.
Anderson may decide not to print
your letters any more, and then w here
would I be for a pen pal? Therefore I feel it necessary to offer you
some basic constructive instruction in
the art of writing to the college
newspaper.
In the first place, Mr. Morris,
never write anywhere anytime anything that might possibly be labeled
as CRITICAL. This word I have
found to be the dirtiest of the dirty
in campus affairs and if you continue
to write in this vein people will type
you as a "rebel' or some sort of
beatnik any way. You also will have
a huge number of the campus conservatives down on you. And what
could be worse than that?

Second, please limit yourself to
using words of not more than two
syllables. For if you do not, one or
both of two terrible fates await you.
When you start flinging your big
words around not only are you definitely twt understood but most of the

campus populace, but you also are
usually thought of as being a nasty
intellectual and are placed in that
category reserved for English majors,
Law students, and Kernel editors.
This in itself could be disastrous, huh?
'
Your third mistake is your largest,
Mr. Morris, and it concerns the length
of your letters. You will learn from
bitter experience (if you have not
colalready) that the present-dalege student hates anything of substantial length. From text books to
fraternity meetings, from the SUB
dance to English class, if it is any
an hour or three
longer than
paragraphs we are utterly 100 percent against it. Now I realize that
your letters have not been vast, nor
have they usually consumed more
than three or four minutes of my
time in reading them, but comparatively speaking they're still miles
too long. By this you have earned the
distinction of being only half read,
and only
digested. To be
the sole eater of your own verbal
cake is indeed a fate worse than death.
y

one-ha-

lf

h

I hope that I have not hurt your
feelings, Mr. Morris, for you see I
really have been following your letters and honestly feel that you could
use some help. For you see, sir, to
most of your readers, including myself, "To read is to work," and you
don't want to subject us to anything
that cruel, do you?

Men Answer Coeds
To The Editor:
This is the first time we have
heard the girls in Bowman Hall complain about their location on campus.
We understand that there have
been a few pranks pulled on the
girls. The girls do not think it pos

sible for two boys to make a mistake
and walk into Section B instead of
Section A. Well, girls, three times
since we have been in Boom 203 of
Bradley Hall, different lxys who live
on the third floor have made the mistake of entering our room. You see,
it is possible.
The girls complain that during the
Homecoming weekend a bunch of
screaming drunks were in the Quadrangle at 2 a.m. We heard them, also,
girls. We also know most of them do
not live in the Quadrangle. These
nights are in the minority. Don't you
agree, girls?
From what we understand, the
girls dislike the hoys staring at them
during breakfast. What would the
girls do if the boys didn't. Girls, if it
really lothers you to have us look at
you, keep your hair up in curlers
when you come to breakfast.
We understand that the girls dislike boys with beady eyes and telescopes. You say you're afraid to walk
into another room. Tell
us, girls, if it really bothers you, why
do you leave your shades
of the way open? No light comes in
at night.
When it comes down to the lewd
comments the girls claim to hear, we
are left blank. We have not heard
any of this, especially in front of the
girls. If this has happened, we are
truly sorry for tlit;u is no excuse fox
-'
this.
Girls, we enjoyed that wonderful
Christmas serenade very much.
Judyj We would like to ask you
one question. To you know what it

Change Of Policy?

To The Editor:
Whom should we protect, the
meek and weak or the strong and
masterful? In my three years on the
UK campus the policy has been to
protect the latter.
Let me cite two cases in the past
year which hav bearing on what I
am about to present. (The facts used
are my interpretation of those the
various papers presented.)
In the fall, a strong, masterful,
brave limelight seeker erred. The
eye'; of the campus were upon this
fooiLall player. The coach was in
arms, he needed him to finish the
poor season. The press gave his name
protection. He was big and
strong and continued to play football.
In the spring a regular partying
and casual graduate student struggling through the Col lego of Commerce erred. The campus was awed
by his sins and was left wondering if
he should be punished. He was. He,
the seeker of education for the betterment of the world and the seeker of
money for food, was expelled. The
teachers shrugged their shoulders.
The press gave him partial protection.
The campus gossip carried his name
like a banner.
Again a student has erred, this
time one of the meek and weak. The
campus was shocked by the erring of
the student and in sympathy with the
reasons. The press felt compelled to
supply a name. No secrets of this
student were protected, even the
motives were labeled. No one came
forward to protect her or her name.
Should the press change its policy?

1890 ROTC Cadets Maul Commandant

By KIRRY

And so it was that a firecracker
exploded at the heels of the commandant, Just as he was leaving
the men's dorm after the room inspection one night in April, 1890.
The startled officer stopped and
turned around, hoping to catch the
mischief-make- r.
At that moment,
a student leaned over the balcony
on the second floor, dirailing
rectly above the major, and emptied a pail of water on the confused pcntleman.
MaJ. McKee, outraged to say the
least, boundrd rapidly up the
stairs and ordered all the men to
fall in line at attention. He shook
s.
his fist threateningly at the

Mr. liOTC' cadet, liavc yon
ever had the urge to timidi one
of yonr officers in the nose?
Well, the cadets of 1S90 had
the same urge, and they did
something about it.
The rebellious young soldiers of

that year suffered hardships that

are unknown to 1960s cadet: daily
military drill, nightly Inspection
of rooms in military style, and a
regularly scheduled evening march
to the old Mess Hall, where the
men ate in strict military fashion.
Bat the rhirf reason for unrest
among the cadets was the crude
conduct of a certain Ma J. McKee,
the commandant of the college.
The major had gained widespread
notoriety because of his potent
cursing ability and legendary
with whiskey.
At last a group of cadets in the
men's dorm decided that the
school would be much better off
without the services of MaJ.
The Placement Service has anMcKee.

Quickly, while the major's hand
was suspended hih in the air, one
of the men stepped out of the
formation and with a powerful
swinR of his arm knocked the
major to the floor.
Then, mysteriously, the lights
went out. MaJ. McKee was mauled.
Dr. James K. Patterson, president of the college, upon learning
of the beating, begged the students
to keep quiet so that the school
would receive no bad publicity
from the hostile Lexington press.
The students agreed that nothing
"
would be said.
In spite of all the precautions,
however, the Lexington Herald got
wind of the news and sent report-r- r
Denny R. Ooode to investigate.
The reporter, during the course
of his relentless search for the
facts, found his way into the men's
dorm. But no sooner had he ident- ified himself than he, like the
major, was doused with a bucketful of water.
