From Dr. Donovan
This Sunday marks the beginning of Religious Emphasis
Week. Through the week there will le many meetings and
classes in which guest speakers will discuss with students
and faculty the relation of religion to the program of higher
education, and religion as it relates to all aspects of life in
our University community.
This is a significant week in the University year. I urge all
members of the University faculty and staff and the students
to take advantage of the opportunities offered by the Religious
Emphasis Week; to look intelligently and thoughtfully at the
meaning of life and what faith has to contribute to the enrichment of life. The theme of the week is "Time To Look
At Life." It is time, and here is our opportunity.

The Frying Pan

Annexation Of UK Farm
By Lexington Is Justified
Although there has been opposition to annexation of the University's Experiment Station Farm
by the City of Iexington, we lxlieve the UK Board
of Trustees were justified in authorizing the city
to go a1ead with plans to annex the farm.
If the UK farm remained outside of the city
limits, it would prevent annexation of any property
on the other side of the farm, lecaiise no property
can be annexed by the city unless it touches property already in city limits. Therefore, people living on the other side of the farm desiring to become part of the city could not do so. A hospital
now being constructed on South Lime will probably desire to be taken into the city.
The UK Trustees found that $4,000 per year
could be saved on fire insurance if the property is
annexed, because the city carries a lower rate on
fire insurance than the county. The farm will also
have better fire protection than formerly since the
city fire department cannot legally fight fires outside
the city's boundaries.
The problem of sewage disposal from the farm
will lie handled by the city without cost to the University after annexation. Surface drainage, which
has leen a past problem, will also lx? taken care of
by the city.
Members of the party opposing the annexation
wmild not give us reasons for their opposition, since
they considered the matter closed and since it is a
"policy of the University." However, we gathered
that one reason for opposition is that it is feared
the city might persuade tlie UK Board of Trustees

UK

For 'Scientists'

University to do away with segregation laws.
They should liave gone further and said that segregation should be alxlished all over the globe.
Tle world can never hope to le free and just
so long as segregation and discrimination is present. People will noi give up tlieir petty prejudices
and inequity feelings. Recent statistics show that
college students are more tolerant than are adults
towards otlier races and religion. But there still
exists a great deal of racial prejudice among college students, especially in southern states. In last week's meeting, about 100 students took
part in a forum discusison on the subject. The
issue was divided into three topics: restrictive
clauses in Greek-lette- r
societies; personal prejudices
on the part of students and faculty; and the barring of Negroes from undergraduate schools of
the University.
Two world wars, in which men of every race
freeand religion died to protect our
dom, point an eternally damning finger at those
persons who profess the superiority or inferiority
of any race or religion. Only stupidity, a mental
blindness, can be attributed to these people. The
history of mankind has shown, time and time again,
tliat only those who ai free, and who recognize
the freedom of others, can survive.
There is no defense for prejudice. From the
viewpoint of Christianity, racial prejudice or prejudice against other faiths is not possible. Men
of wisdom have long recognized one of the basic
tenets of Christianity: each man, as a man, is
sacred, regardless of the church he worships in
or the color of his skin.

Has No Name

to use some of the farm land for buildings and residential sections.
This is, indeed, a good reason for opposing the
annexation, but we think the Trustees will have
more sense than to let such a thing happen. The
farm land must be considered as much a laboratory
for agriculture students as various buildings and
rooms on the campus are considered laboratories
for chemistry and physics students.
It is also feared the city would zone and patrol
the farm area when it is annexed. This is not so.
In reply to a letter from President Herman Donovan, the attorney general of Kentucky answered
"that neither the present zoning ordinances of the
City of Lexington nor any future ones will apply
to University property owned by the Commonwealth of Kentucky unless the legislature delegates
to the city, by way of zoning statute, specific authority over State property."
Dr. Donovan said this week that the city of Lexington has cooperated with UK in many matters
and has always been a good neighbor. He said the
Trustees felt good public relations should be maintained lx'tween the city and the University,, and
since they could see no disadvantages in the annexation and since part of the farm is already within city limits, they authorize the city to go ahead
and make the annexation.
We agree with Dr. Donovan that the University
could not be "a dog in a manger" and prevent people on the other side of the Experiment Station
Farm from being brought into city limits when they
desired to be.

Prejudices And Discrimination
Should Be Abolished From World
A group of UK students took a noble stand
last week when they declared it is time for the

The annals of history contain names of such
men as Adolf Hitler and Hermann Goering who
refused to accept the idea that all men are born
with certain- inalienable rights. Such men are insignificant now, except as an example. But the
world is still full of persons carrying on the work
of internal destruction of the nation by advocating
the superiority of certain groups.
A discouraging aspect about the problem of
segregation and sectionalism is that it is evident
on the campuses of American colleges and universities, including UK. This is an institution of
higher learning and is supposed to train young
men and women for life. One phase of that training, which apparently has been overlooked, is the
part which deals with understanding and appreciating the freedoms that have made our country
-

what if is.
If a professor is prejudiced that is serious enough,
for hatred is the most contagious of all mental diseases. If he professes his prejudices, he is a criminal of the worst kind, because education is the only
preventative or cure for prejudice.
The same applies to students, both Greeks and
independents.
Fraternities and sororities which
manifest the raving symptoms of prejudice contradict the meaning of "fraternity," brotherhood.
If prejudice, and, consequently, segregation is
ever to Ije alxlished, most of the responsibility will
be ours. It is a responsibility which should be
taken on with pleasure, for the freedoms which

The most stublxirn loyal UK fraternity doesn't
have a Creek name nor a pin to go with it. Their
sign of membership is carrying two science fiction
magazines to class for every textliook.
Some of these science fiction fans have been
interested in planets and space ships since tli'-idiaper days; others are recent converts. They all
swear by cosmic days and Ray Bradbury and

A few of them just call it

in scientific terms how soon well

Man From Mars Comes To UK
To Get His Newspaper Story
By ROXXIE

BUTLER

Last night a man from Mars visited me here in
the Kernel newsroom. lie was a purple man, with
a green nose and skinny legs. It was only natural
that he should pick me out to confide in. He
thought I was another Martian.
His name was Xfrt, and he was a. reporter doing
a feature on the academic situation at various
American colleges. Xfrt was quite perturbed with
his findings, and here, recorded faithfully for those
who care, are his exact words:
"I was really glad when my assignment brought
me to UK. You see, even on Mars the name of
your University isn't unknown. There are quite a
few loyal UK fans up. there, all of whom still root
for you, even if it's only in intramurals.
"One of tlie first things I did when I got here
was to disguise myself, which was easy enough. I
slipped on; a, mask; with a blank expression and
swiped a loud sports shirt from one of the boys who
passed out" in liacli of Miller Hall. After that, I
proceeded to" attend some, of the classes here, and
let me tell you, I'm not at all pleased with the
situation.
"The very first class I sat in on was one dealing
with elementary principles of one of the fine arts.
One person, obviously of inferior intelligence, tried
to teach the students alxiut this art by having them
memorize a textlxxk. I felt free to speak up against
this, since all Martians have a natural love for the
arts. I casually mentioned that only a fool would
attempt to teach music, or painting, or any other
allied art from a textbook.
"Never, absolutely never, hav e I been so humiliated. I was ordered to leave the class! Before I
left, however, I gave that inferior person a lethal
dose of the Martian Itch Ray.
"After that, I sat in on a class dealing with a subject known to us as rudimentary intelligence. You
call it philosophy. Here, as in the other class, the
instructor did not meet with my approval. He insisted that we couldn't grasp the meaning of the

Religious Emphasis Week Begins
With 'Time To Look At Life'
Next week has leon designated as Religious
Emphasis Week on the UK campus. It is a time
when every student should pause and contemplate
Lis own religious life, to take "time to look at life."
Religion is too often taken for granted by the
average person. Vast numbers' of modern men
and women are unable to affirm Christianity. Or,
if they do believe in Cod. they have such a childish conception of Him that it fails to stand up
in times of stress and crisis. This weak and nonexistent faith funis out to le the underlying cause
of much of the contemporary feeling of depression and inner torment.
These people constantly ask why
