"Miss Krehm's technical equipment is extraordinary, her musical

Under the University marking system, letter grades aie
given. To obtain an "A" which is excellent and valued at
three points per credit, it might be well lo heed the words
of Johnathan Edwards, who wrote "There has nothing
been more without a definition than Excellency; although
it be what we are most concerned with: yea. we are concerned with nothing else."
"If you wish to be good." thereby making a "B" and
gaining two points cr credit, "first believe that you are
bad." advises the anc ient Epictclus in his "Fragments."
The venerable sage, Samuel Johnson, explains your status, if you get a "C" a lair grade valued at I piint per credit.
Tie says that you are "not below mediocrity, nor above it."
A grade of "D" is unsatisfactory, indicating a deficiency.
It merits no jKiinls. but gives credit lor graduation, if with
such credit the student s standing is I or more. However, according to George Herbert as expressed in his "Jacula
a "D" is better than nothing. He has written lhat
"a lean compromise is better than a tat lawsuit," which by a
stretch of the imagination could apply to a grade.
"E" is failure, naught credits and naught joints. And if
you receive this rating, remember Samuel Johnson's words
of wisdom. "Complaints are vain: we will try to do bettei
another time. Tomorrow and tomorrow. A lew designs and
a few failures, and the time of designing is past."
A course is incomplete, if a grade of "T is given. Under
such circumstances some relatively small part of the term's
work remains undone and must be completed within one
month after reentrant c in school, if credit is to le gained.
According to examination rules, a student who has been

OF KENTUCKY

LEXINGTON. KENTUCKY. FRIDAY. JANUARY

UNIT

FRIDAY IbslV.
euii-Heck- lv

Representative
Jack Lovett "fil- ibustered,"
while President
Bob
Allen and legislators burned.
And the Student Legislature enacted the SGA budget bill in one of
the stormiest sessions in UK's legislative history Tuesday night. The
vote was 15 to 3.
The budget will be submitted to
Acting President Thomas P. Cooper
for consideration. If approved by the
president, it will be effective immediately.
Passage of the bill, which calls
for an appropriation of $2,327.50
SGA income,
from the 1940-4- 1
a session of alleged "stalling
for time." threats of expulsion,
hasty searching in "Robert's Rules
of Order." and knitting.
Lavett Objects
The session waxed hot and tempers flared to a combustible point,
when Lovett. arts and sciences representative, gained the floor and
objected to "railroading a 'measure
so important." The assembly had
suspended rules and was considering the bill at a second reading.
Since Tuesday night's meeting was
the last session until next semester,
the majority of the legislators favored immediate passage of the budget bill so that the Student Government association could plan further action, which was dependent
upon appropriations.
Women Take l'p Knitting
For more than a half hour. Representative Lovett held the floor,
Allen searched
while President
through Robert's book in an effort
to find some rule whereby he could
force Lovett to yield the floor. Several of the women legislators got
out their knitting and fumed in
silence.
At one point, the president threatened to oust Lovett from the assembly room because of what he
considered questionable actions.
Time Limit Proposed
When a limit on speaking time
was proposed, Lovett refused to accept it. declaring that in "denying
me the privilege of speaking on the
floor, you are denying me the privilege of representing the students
of the arts and sciences college."
Lovett said that he was "not in
favor of railroading the bill," and
he wanted more time to give it
"deliberate consideration." He added
that he desired to make some
amendments to the bill.
Citing the Social committee and
Kentuckian appropriations, he
pointed out that he thought the
bill should provide for "some effective control over receipts and disbursements." He suggested an SGA
audit of accounts. At present, the
University audits all organizations'
funds.
Standing Questioned
After more than 30 minutes. Lovett yielded the floor when his
standing in the legislature was
questioned. Saying that "I hate to
bring up petty things." Rollins
Wood, commerce senior men's representative, asked Lovett what college he was enrolled in. Lovett. who
is representing
the senior men of
the arts and sciences college, refused to answer. When it was said
that he is in the graduate school,
he demanded proof.
President Allen then read aloud
from the student directory tlwt
Representative Lovett is registered
as a graduate student. Lovett then
yielded the floor.
Status To Be Probed
As a result of the questioning of
Lovett's status, the president requested the Standards committee
to Investigate his standing in the
legislature, and to report its findings at the next regular meeting.
The budget, mhich was drawn up
by the Finance committee and introduced by Chairman Jim Johnson, calls for an appropriation ol
about $850 less than last year's actual expenditures.
Appropriations Listed
The recommended appropriations
were
1
Social committee. $800; to be
used for dances and social functions.
This is a reduction from last year's
appropriation (actual expenditure

about $1100 to bring the budget in

ence. $300: the bill states that "the
amount approved for this last year
was $450. and $505.86 was actually

Conference Cancelled
During the meeting President Allen reported that the chairman of
the Vocational conference. Margar-ett- a

the conference
definitely
would
not be held this year.
An exact statement of income
could not be given, the committee
said, because the business office receives payment of fees throughout
the year. D.H. Peak, business agent
and a member of the Finance committee, estimated that the income
will be about $2400.
Sdtplus Expected
Therefore, if the present budget
receives the presidential approval,
"there will remain a small surplus
of income over expenses . . . and

the Student Government association will not be faced with the
need for retrenchment in the future," the finance committee declared.

the establishment of the SGA. The
committee reported that "in Ihe
past years some payments have
been suggested that a student loan
fund might be set up from this
surplus. The committee
believes
that such proposals should be studied carefully by the Student Legislature and the Administration of
the University before any decision
is made."
Report Records Sought
Lovett introduced
a resolution
that all committee reports be introduced to the legislature In typewritten form, to be filed in the office. The resolution, which was referred to the Rules committee, was

the fact that a lawsuit would be the only means

Unless some more effective plan for recovering
the money can be drawn up, they indicated, the
loan fund would be simply, if indi
