Up to a foot of snow in some
areas of Kentucky and a full 10
inches on the University camofpus forced administration
ficials to postpone registration
one day.
Students scheduled to complete registration Monday are to
report to the Coliseum Tuesday
at the saifie time. Tuesday registrants are to report Wednesday. Any student who cannot
report either of the days is urged
to call or wire the University,
said Associate Registrar Ray
and "individual

Mr. Cumberledge also added
Sunday night that classes will
begin as scheduled Wednesday.
Announcement will be made if
it is decided that classes are to
be postponed until Thursday,
he said.
A similar snowstorm Jan. 1
and 2 in the state forced registration to be postponed one day

OF KENTUCKY, LEXINGTON

.

By HELEN McCLOY
Dr. John W. Oswald can expect a call today alxmt alleged
discrimination against Negroes
in diverse areas of University
life.
The call is being made by Dr.
Philip Crossen as a result of a
recent "town meeting" sponsored by the Lexington-Fayett- e
County Human Rights Commission.
Among the 150 persons present were five members of
UK black student organof
ization, who complained
racial problems in faculty hiring, athletic recruitment and
off campus housing.
A number of white students
corroborated these
charges, according to Dr. Crossen, commission chairman, and
agreed that abusive language
is sometimes directed toward
Negro students by white professors in the classrooms.
Dr. Crossen said in a tele- phone interview yesterday that
he hopes to talk to President
Oswald about setting up a meeting with the proper officials to
discuss the complaints.
He said the commission had
been interested in University
policies for some time "especially because UK is Lexington's
and
largest single industry"
that the students' grievances
"brought this concern to a
head."
"We would like to see if the
University can't take a more
active part" in seeing that its
faculty and students are not
denied adequate, housing
of race, Dr. Crossen said.
Property owners whose apartments are listed with the University Housing Office must
agree to rent to any University
student, Jack Hall, associate
dean of students, said last night.
"If a student is refused for any
reason," said Mr. Hall, "the
housing will be taken off the
approved list."
Mr. Hall said the problem
always has been "to validate
that theie has been discrimination. We have probably had
more problems getting housing
for our foieign rather than our
Negro students," he added.
( Negroes
repeatedly have
maintained that approved hous
Or-gen- a,

Some
ing is not "prejudice-free.- "
groups have even tried spot
checks of housing, but a large-scal- e
survey in this area remains to be done.)
The town meeting differed
from the regular monthly meetings of the commission in that
it was held out in the commun-nit- y
rather than downtown in
City Hall and representatives of
minority groups had been invited "to tell it like it is." Dr.
Crossen said he had worked on
the plan since August and that
the turnout was "beyond my
wildest dreams."

Phone Changes

As

of

the

follow-

ing changes in residence hall
phones were made:
All numbers beginning with
"7" are now preceded by another 'T. Thus, 7100 becomes 77100.
All numbers beginning with
"3" were changed to "39".
Thus, 3125 becomes 39125.
All other four digit numbers are now preceded by
"8". Thus, 4500 becomes
84500.
Paid Nestor, director of
business services, said the
changes were necessary because of new equipment installed to serve the residence
halls.
He said the changes apply
only to the telephone numbers in the residence halls.

Last year's draft summons in
the same

period averaged only about 15,300 per
month.
As one manpower planner put
it in describing the upswing:
"We're dealing entirely with mechanics here."
The mechanics are that the
Army is .now in the midst of
what the Pentagon calls a major replacement cycle involving
the rotation out of service of
thousands of men drafted when
the Southeast Asia buildup was
launched.

By August replacement needs

will really be soaring. The reason: In August 1966, when U.S.
manpower for the war was escalated, 36,600 men were ordered to duty, followed by 37,300
in September, 49,200 in October
and 37,600 in November.

Why should you

confide in a guy
you've never met
before?

Because the guy we're talking
about is a college recruiter from
Alcoa. And the only way to play it
is honestly.
He'll be on campus in a couple of
days. And here's what we recommend you do at the interview.
First, lay your cards on the table.
Tell him what kind of work would
really turn you on.
Then, sit back and listen while he
explains how your plans figure
into Alcoa's plans. (You'll be
surprised how versatile
Aluminum Company of America
can be.)

So make it a point to meet Alcoa's
recruiter. He's a confidence man
you can really trust.

Change for the better

In December, Mrsk Stovall
informed President John W. Oswald that she was legally the sole
dispenser of state monies. Thus,
after she became treasurer Jan. 1,
said Mrs. Stovall, she would end
a practice whereby the state treasurer transferred some $3.5 million

For two years, as an "experiment," the University issued its
