Students Discuss Registration
Jim Toddj sophomore from Lexington:
"I think preclassificatlon Is fine,
but there are a few bad points In

"First of all. most students like
to make out their own schedules,
and under the new system there
Is no certainty that the student

Sunday that the game was dead.
Murrell, however, gave rise to a

Murrell is going ahead with
plans for the Mason-Dixo- n

Classic. He thinks it's a natural
for this area, and so do many
others.
Among these Is UK Coach Blan-to- n
Collier. He said Sunday, "It
might be a good Idea If things can
be done with NCAA approval."
Murrell said he believes the
game can be played that way.
One of the problems to be solved
concerns the athletic scholarships
Involved. The players can participate in the postseason senior
games and retain their scholarships if the games are played on
a holiday. If not, they must give
up their scholarships.
Murrell aald his first, step in

Chandler Attacks
Faculty Decision
Gov. A. B. Chandler yesterday
leveled another attack at the University Faculty for failing to grant
a holiday to UK students last
Wednesday.

In the final meeting with his
cabinet in Frankfort, Gov. Chandler said the Faculty attempted to
embarrass him by not granting the

holiday.
"I did the same thing last year,"
Chandler said, "and not a word
was said."
UK students staged two demonstrations last week in protest of
the Faculty's decision. The first
occurred Monday night and the
second, Tuesday afternoon.
"Do you think the professors
would have said anything if it had
been my first, second, or third
year?" the governor asserted.

"Despite the hectic moments in
the Coliseum, that system of registration is more creditable than the
one proposed, and should at pre- -,

including letters written by the
Kentucky statesmen, his speeches,
and other documents of personal

age to see behind such hypocrisy."
Yesterday's blast followed a similar one last week in which Chand-

ler said the Faculty attempted to
embarrass him deliberately by not
voting for the holiday.
Chandler said he told Dr. Dickey
that he had made a mistake by
calling the Faculty meeting to decide on the holiday.
The governor also criticized three
University Faculty members for
working against him at UK.

Atlanta Plans
Solution For
Integration

ATLANTA, Nov. 30 (AP)
The
Atlanta Board of Education today
gave its answer to a federal court
order for desegregation of the city's
public schools a pupil placement
plan calling for gradual integra-

tion starting next year.
The board also pledged to fight
to keep Atlanta's schools open despite current state laws allowing
the governor to close any school
which integrate.
The board's plan Is patterned
after the pupil placement law In
Alabama. It sets up an elaborate
admission application system
which any pupil Negro or white-w- ould
have to go through to get
Into any given school.
The plan, in general, authorizes
the school superintendent, to assign pupils, subject to board review, on the basis of scholastic
and psychological factors and the
possible effect on public peace and
economic impact.
Operation of the plan was made
contingent on enactment of permissive legislation by the 1960 general assembly. This contingency
was approved by U. S. District
Judge Frank Hooper when he ordered the board to submit a desegregation plan.
The board's proposal said the
gradual integration would begin
with the twelfth grade.

The Missile Test Center Is noted

Almost lost among these flying

An Arras launching attracts no

reporters don't bother to cover it.

* The Grand Ole Master
Winningcst Basketball Coach," "Mr.
Basketball," and "The Man in the
Brown Suit." He undoubtedly has
been called by other nicknames by
jealous coaches and opposing teams,
and some of them have probably not
been so complimentary.

The actual dexterity of an artist is
embodied in his skill to transform
rough and ugly materials into beauty;
his ability to create stems from a
natural talent to interpret his environment and to idealize that environment in his particular art form.
So it is with music, painting, writing. So it is also with basketball.
And undeniably Adolph Bupp, beginning his 30th year as UK basketball coach tonight, is the grand old
master at developing basketball teams
from disgusting gauchery to pleasing
finesse. Time after time, he has taken
what seemingly is mediocre material
and transmuted it into a championship team.
His teams during the past few years
have so captured the imagination of
Kentuckians that sports writers' have
originated taglines for them, viz., "The
Fabulous Five," The Fledgling Five,"
"The Fiddlin Five," and The Heart
Attack Kids." His list of outstanding
ballplayers and

He himself has been called the

'

But Mr. Rupp has always ben a
controversial coach. He has been
scolded vehemently for his insistence
on winning and for playing it out of
proportion. His name was linked with
the basketball scandal here not long
ago, but was cleared.
However, to deny his competency
as a basketball coach is to disregard
his fabulous record he has compiled
during his tenure as UK coach. It
includes four NCAA championships,
608 victories against 106 defeats,
"Coach of the Year" twice, 19 Southeastern Conference championships,
and coach of 21

another masterpiece tonight, we will

he has evaluated his material.

Mr. Huxley Speaks
Dr. Alclous Huxley, novelist, philosopher, scientist, and lecturer extraordinaire, once wrote a somewhat
pessimistic apocalypse of an awesome
Utopia entitled "Brave New World."
The book, apparently indicative of
Mr. Huxley's suspicions of the direction in which science was moving, has
received wide circulation in American colleges and universities as a
model for thought provocation and
imagination.
But Mr. Huxley, after his viewpoints have been blazoned before the
minds of American people, has altered his outlook. In a speech in California recently, he said that He felt
very optimistic about the future and
that within the next 50 years he could
envision a world in which automation
would perform most industrial tasks
and in which people would move into
service industries to work as creative
individuals.
This is indeed a startling change
for Mr. Huxley, who certainly would
not have preached this doctrine some
25 years ago when he wrote "Brave
New World." The turnabout is refreshing fjid hopeful, since it' comes
.from such an astute observer.
He lists, still, overpopulation as the
most immediate problem facing
America and follows up with such
distressing stigmas as the challenge
of longevity, the possible oppressiveness of organization, and improvement of human quality.
But, probing even more profoundly
into our educational problems, Mr.
Huxley is most candid and perspica- t

cious. Says he: "It disturbs me that
so many young people's minds are
completely closed. Why is this?"
His answer? "My suspicion is that
we need to teach the basic processes
of awareness. We need to train young
people in perception. We need to
train them in imagination. We need
to get at the actual basis of the learning procedure-- But here is where we
are doing the least."
.

In a world of impending

war,
artificial satellites, moon rockets, international tensions, and a prevailing
educational philosophy- - of "adjustment," Mr. Huxley's words are' even
more shocking and revealing.
They are also true.
