* Driving Out Playboys
Dr. Paul Woodring, consultant to
the Fund for Advancement of Education, maintains that the day of the
college playboythe imdcrachicvcr
is just about over.
In a recent article, he described
the playboys as the students who
"don't work very hard, don't learn
very much, and don't seem to care
even though they have the ability to
do good work."
Citing examples of colleges which
will no longer tolerate the student who
strives for the "gentleman's 'C,,w Dr.
Woodring said the playboy must go
colleges
since openings in first-ratare at a premium.
UK, too, has its fair share of students who are interested"bnly in getting a degree to increase their prospective earning power or in the social
aspects of college life. They manage
to do just the work necessary to stay
in school long enough to get their
degrees.
Although UK is not yet in a position in which it must turn away applicants because of lack of space, we
might examine the situation. As the
population increases at a faster rate
than the University's-Jacilitie- s
expand,
someday we may face the same problems.
When that day arrives, refusal to
admit students without the native intellect to "absorb a college education
will not be sufficient. Nor will dropping students unable to make 2.0
standings solve the problem, for with
future increased admission requirements, such students will not have
been admitted. Then we must begin
to eliminate our deadwood cease to
respect the "C" as a mark of a gentleman.
Dr. Woodring discussed colleges
which dismiss the underachievers who
do not perform up to their capabilities
and advise the dismissed men to join
e

n

the Army before applying for
UK could field an entire
batallion immediately if its underachievers all enlisted in the armed
services.
We do not expect a future Nirvana in which every student is engrossed in a search for knowledge for
the sake of knowledge alone. In our
pragmatic society we expect to continue seeing major emphasis placed
on the financial value of a college degree and enrollment in various
will continue to increase in
direct proportion to the increasing
beginning salaries for graduates in
the field. We may not favor such happenings, but we expect no sudden reversal just because of an expanding
population and stiffened academic
requirements.
But we do look forward to the day
when students enter the University
for an education not a meal ticket
and the center of student life is the
Library not the Grill.

Portrait Of A Murderer

Soviets And Mark Twain
The Soviet Union has just hailed
Mark Twain, on his 125th natal anniversary, as "a depicter of the backstage side of the notorious American
democracy." Mark obviously knew the
truth and said it about this dreadful
country of ours, according to the
Kremlin spokesmen. We might help
the Kremlin with a few more suggestions. II. L. Mencken, Sinclair
Lewis, Peter Finley Dunne and his
Mr. Dooley, and Will Rogers, for ex

amples, were pretty good critics of
American life and politics too. Like
Mark Twain, they had led unrcgi-mcnte- d
lives and they grew to be the
kind of individual who says what he
thinks after thinking for himself. The
Soviet Union is welcome to read our
great
wits, under one condition. In return
we'd like to read some of theirs,
products of the Soviet system. No
names come to mind at all?

Readers Discuss Stylus, Electoral College
Defends Reviewer
To The Editor:

Indeed, it

is "unusual" for a facul-

ty member to review Stylus, and Dr.
R. O. Evans' review was an unusually

good one. Dr. Evans did not write five
paragraphs of "meaningless chatter"
and inane panegyrics about Stylus. He
wrote a lucid account of what Stylus
is, what it is not, and what it could
be. (This account is perfectly justifiable in view of the fact that many
University students do not seem to
have an exact idea of the nature of
Stylus), lie then gave a critique of
the prose section of Stylus, and commented at equal length and with the
same amount of care on the poetry
published in the present issue. (Could
the fact that Mr. Carbonell's poem was
not selected for intensive explication

be the reason for his vitrolic denunciation of Dr. Evans' review?)
In his discussion of the art reproductions, Dr. Evans perspicaciously
observed that the photograph of Phillip Harris' ceramics accomplished an
unexpectedly excellent tactile effect.
e
Only a psychopathically
person could read into these comments a polemic against Mr. Harris
art work. If the earthenware objects
did not have good texture, shape, and
construction, they could not have been
photographed so successfully.
hyper-sensitiv-

Finally, Mr. Carbonell's unnecessarily rude and consciously vindictive
closing statement reveals his inability
to make an objective, intelligent, and
valid evaluation of the review.

In the editorial of the Baltimore

certain considerations that must be
looked into before we change a system that has served us well through
the years.
There is probably far too much
concern about the Electoral College.
Only once did a man lose the election after receiving the majority of
the popular vote. Studies have shown
that if the Lodge-Gosseproposals
had been law over the years two men
would have lost the election even
though they won a majority of the
popular vote. These elections were,
in 1SS0 and 1896.
Generally speaking, the only states
that would benefit from the Lodge-Gossey
proposals would be the
states, such as the Southern
states. No one will argue that the
key states such as New York, Ohio,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, etc., don't
have an advantage in the electoral
college. However, it is only fair that
these states have some advantages,
particularly when they do not receive
proper representation in Congress,
particularly in the Senate.

On Electoral Reform

As Sen. Kennedy said in debates
in the Senate in 195C when he was

fighting such a proposal: "One of
New York's greatest hopes of recapturing its relative loss of influence in
the legislative branch is to have an
eflective influence on the presidency."
lie noted that each state, regardless
of s'ze, has two senators. Rural interests have always had far too much
power in state legislatures as well as
in Congress.
Under the Lodge plan, third parties could hope to win a few electoral
votes and therefore they would be
encouraged to demonstrate their power by putting up a candidate. This
weapon could be extremely effective
when the presidential contests are
particularly close.
Another important consideration
is the tedious job of counting votes.
Under the proportional plan each vote
would be particularly important. If
the returns of future elections come in
as slowly as they have in the election
just past, the nation might not know
the winner until weeks after the election. This plan would also encourage
voting frauds.
It seems to me that this proposal
would not solve the problem that it
is aimed at solving, and unless a more
realistic approach can be brought forward we should allow the Eletoral
College to function as it has in the
past.
