been "taken over by persons who

In regard to the strike protesting the war in Vietnam, the
motion said the University "cannot permit property owned by the
Commonwealth and under our

possible open defiance of federal law.
"The University has no business giving aid and comfort in
such activity by providing office

motion continued. The motion

Immature Taste
But as the past has indicated,

For some time we have been
making mental notes concerning
the Greek System's avowed dedication to improvement. We have
listened sometimes perplexed to
the propagands claiming "things
are getting better and better."

i

We are perplexed, for example,
when Greek men delight in pa-

rading through fraternity houses
wearing sweatshirts that bear obscene inscriptions.

ectual values were earning a place
in Greek life on the University
campus. This assumption becomes
invalid. What are these sweatshirts
if they are not a denial of cultural
values and intellectual maturity?
The sweatshirts take the wearer
back to childhood, when biological
processes were something to be
giggled at and whispered about.
They harken back to adolescent
fascination with sex.
By now most college students

have come to regard this aspect
of life with at least a bit of maturity.
Most of us, we would hope, have
achieved a realistic and balanced
view of sex.

many independents have bought
these crude shirts, but they are to
be condemned likewise for such
immaturity.
The fact remains, however, that
the campus is for the most part
led, controlled and directed by the
Greek Establishment. And if the
Greeks are to led, they must be
willing to undergo a certain scrutiny
reserved for all leaders.
A wise lady once observed that
the person who is easiest to see
is the one who is standing out in
front.

How unfortunate if he happens
to be wearing an obscene sweatshirt.
That lets everybody know he is
fool.

the College of Law, I found it hard
to believe that it was composed by
a rational University of Kentucky
student. Tell me, just what did you
prove by writing such an insulting
article? What was the purpose behind it? The only reason I can
see is ignorance, shallowness or
plain stupidity.
This article, which will more
than likely be read by a great
deal of individuals outside the
campus area, not only dealt an
unwarranted and uncalled for blow
to our College of Law but also to
the University in general. It is
realized by more mature people
that any group has a few undesirables that cast a bad light on
the majority; I say mature people
realize this.
You, sir, have condemned an
entire institution for the remarks
and activities of a small percent
of a vast number. Your shallow
and superficial insight in this matter is inexcusable.
Our alumni consist of individuals who have gone on to become
Covernors, fine lawyers, leaders in
the educational field, and influential, upstanding businessmen. Your
remarks were a slam to these people.
We are proud of our school. We
work together and represent it well.
Last year the President of our
Student liar Association was selected to receive the coveted award
for being the outstanding Student

mittee for the American Law Student Association.
We have one of the finest Student
Bar Associations in the country,
excluding none. We at the University of Kentucky College of Law
are a conscientious, hard working
student body. We resent very much
your term, "underworked." You,
my boy, do not even know the meaning of work until you have spent
a few months in this "isolated
corner." Judging from the quality
of the editorial in discussion, you

Shriver Losing Poverty Program Executives
Adding to his mounting
troubles, poverty czar Sargent
Shriver is on the verge of losing
the director of the poverty crusade's most important and most
criticized program.
No announcement has been
made, but the next top executive likely to depart from harassed poverty headquarters is

and a former Vice-Maycity, Berry came here just six
months ago to command the key
front in the War Against Poverty:
the Community Action Program.
Now, bedeviled both by local
politicians and militant radicals,
the Community Action Program
is the sore thumb of the
effort. Berry, confessing
frustration to his friends, has all
but decided to quit.
What makes this more worrisome than a normal bureaucratic
resignation is that almost all the
rest of Shriver's top level staff
is in the process of leaving. And

headquarters that must be solved soon
if the program is to come close
to its towering objectives.
Seldom has Washington seen
an agency more completely denuded midway through an Administration. Apart from Berry's
probable departure, Shriver has
lost or is losing his Deputy Director, Job Corps chief, Congressional lobbyist, public relations chief, and "inspector
Kcneral."
It should be quickly added
that this mass exodus is in part
coincidental. The departing top
executives are leaving for a
variety of reasons. Many told
Shriver from the beginning that
their tour of duty on the poverty
front would be only temporary.
But some resignations are far
from coincidental particularly
