'

"He said he saw our piano and he
would like to play it," Miss Lay said.
Miss Lay added Oden told her he had
been "around to other sorority houses
and played the pianos and just wanted
to see how yours sounds."
Police said Oden denied ever being
in a sorority house before and that he
only went in to play the piano.
"This is the first one," he told police.
However, a check with housemothers
on sorority row failed to substantiate
this, according to the rejort. He allegedly
had tried or had been in every house
on the row.
Miss Lay said she consented to let him

play the piano, but as soon as he went
into the living room, phoned the house
president. Miss Sue Ellen Miller.
The girls had been alerted in a house
meeting Monday night to watch for
strange men. The warning followed a
break-iat the TriDelt sorority house
Sunday.
Four such incidents have been reported
within the last month. Two sorority
houses. Kappa Delta and Zeta Tau Alpha,
have been looted, Cooperstown coeds
have complained of vandalism, and the
Tri Dehs reported a prowler.
Miss Miller said she immediately
phoned the campus jolice while other
n

members of the sorority locked all doors
in the house, leaving only the front exit

ojen.

"He didn't really play the piano," one
of the girls said, "he just peeked at it."
Miss Christine Peters, Alpha Xi housemother, said the Tri Delts had sited a
similar incident several weeks ago in
which a man entered the house asking
to play the piano.
Oden said he came occasionally to
campus on Tuesday and Friday and that
he was a private tutor in music, according to campus police.
Campus jolice said they are hopeful
this is the erson (prowler) and "our

Cooperstown Residents Complain About Mail Service

Several male students in

that they have not received letters, newspapers, and magazines

Bond Issue

Kernel Staff Writer
Young Democrats president
Bill Deskins urged "all students
on campus w ho support the bond
issue and are willing to get out
and work for it" to come to
Room 110 of the Law School
next Saturday at 1 p.m.
At the meeting held last night
the Young Democrats outlined
plans to work in greater Lexington shopping centers this coming Saturday. Students will work
in Eastland and Cardenside,
passing out information concerning the bond issue.
"The University will benefit
in the form of $35 million in
capital improvements," Deskins
said. "The State puts up $176
million, pays back $296 million,
and receives $700 million in
matching federal funds," he said.
Students are being asked to
work from 3 p.m. or from
p.m. on Saturday.

University Post Office where they

mail is handled by the Lexington
City Post Office.
"We keep getting mail from
other people not even with
Cooperstown addresses although
the room number is the same,"
Crossfield said. "A mailman told
us once just to lay it out on the
shelf in the lounge and someone
would pick it up."

Dave Countin, a corridor advisor on the third floor of Fox
House, said of three national
magazines he subscribes to, it
has been two weeks since he's
received one and three weeks
since he's gotten another.

In Haggin and Donovan halls
the problem of too small boxes

does not exist since magazines
and papers can be rolled and put
in the boxes horizontally. There
is a desk. at each of these dormitories where larger items may
be held.

will probably not be in Cooperstown for more than two years,
the University could not build a

Siii'j lrc Keyword For Homecoming Weekend
Homecoming Dress:

FLOWERS

Attire Must Be Comfortable,
Suit Many Different Occasions
By CAY

CISII

Women's Page Editor
Every year, as Homecoming
approaches, the major question,
especially for freshmen women,
becomes "What shall I wear this
year? What am I going to be
doing, and what would be appropriate for it?"
The 'first thing 'to" remember
about Hom,ecoming is that it is
usually an all day affair. . .often
an all weekend date. Saturday
usually begins with brunches at
different fraternity houses or open
houses at dormitories, there to
meet alurnni and special friends
who have come to the campus
for the festivities.
It is an unwritten law among
women students on this campus
that one "dresses" for Homecoming. A wool suit is always the
right thing to wear. . .and this
includes heels, purse, and gloves.
suit dress is also a "sure
bet" for the day. The jacket can
be taken off or left on whatever
the occasion or the weather dictates. And Homecoming is a good
time to try a new or slightly
unusual style that you've been
just dying to wear out lacked a
little nerve or the right reason.
After the game, sororities, fraternities and the dormitories hold
open houses, and this changing
schedule is the very reason that
whatever a woman wears must
be versatile enough to meet any
and all of the social demands of
the day.
This year is the University's
Centennial Homecoming. The
dance held in the Coliseum will
feature the orchestra of Sammy
Kaye. The dress will be
. . . suits for men, cocktail
dress for women.
As the dance is being held on
the floor of the Colisuem, women
have been asked not to wear high
heels. Medium or low heels will
do quite as well (especially with
today's styles) for dancing and
do much less damage to the wood
A

For Any

Occasion

The words to decribe Homeattire are "dressed
coming
comfort." For the dance, of
course, femininity is the key.
And the gala affair will be well
worth attending. But what a
woman wears to the Homecoming
game must be at once becoming
and relatively stylish in a definitely comfortable way.

Homecoming is any other

* Aii Endorsement
Kentucky's voters will decide
on one of the most crucial financial issues in recent years when
they go to the polls for the November general election. The decision
of the state's citizens on the $176
million Ixmd issue could have a
resounding effect on the amount
of progress in the Commonwealth
in future years.
The bond issue not only is a
matter of deep concern to
but it concerns every student at the University and other
state colleges. Passage of the bond
issue could mean a new era of
progress for institutions of higher
education in the state. The bond
issue may be the only way to
provide state schools with additional finances which will be
necessary to meet the demands of
more and more students.
The University alone would receive an allotment of $5,873,000
from the bond issue, including
grants to provide for growth of the
community college system. This
will bring $4,170,000 in federal
matching funds and $25,047,000
from other sources.
The funds would provide for
the development of a $35,000,000

dormitory complex for 2,G00 additional students. Additional classrooms, offices and utilities would
be supplied with these funds. As
the University prepares for a student body of 20,000, such financing
becomes increasingly necessary.
Significant expansion plans at
five state colleges also will become
possible if the bond issue passes.
Many persons have voiced concern that the bond issue is too
large an investment for the state
to undertake. We feel, however,
that the bond issue will be a
break to the taxpayer. The state
must be able to put up its own
money before it can receive matching funds. If the bond issue fails,
additional taxes might be necessary before the state could be
eligible for Tederal funds.
The bond issue is a business
proposition. The cost of repayment
will not require additional taxes.
Repayment will be possible through
the normal growth of the state's
economy.
The Kernel endorses the $176
million bond issue, and we urge
Kentuckians to vote "yes" Nov. 2.
The state cannot afford to reject
this important issue.

The Hours System
Any veteran student can tell
you that most one and two hour
courses offered at the university
call for as much time and work
as most four hour courses.
Nearly everyone would agree
that a student carrying seven two-hocourses (total 14 hours) has a
rougher load than someone carryr
courses (total
ing four
16 hours). The trend in past years
has been to more and more courses
totaling fewer hours; this has meant
several specialized classes with
small enrollments of less than ten
students each in many cases.
Although the academic standards of the university have been
on the rise in recent years, the
proliferation of classes has been a
contributing factor to making the
work load for individual students
heavier and increasing the pressures
of academic life.
President Howard Bowen, in
part of his President's Report this
fall, has suggested the trend to
several classes for little credit be
reconsidered.
It may be that educating a university student could best be accomplished by scheduling four four-hocourses a semester rather than

In the observation rooms, students crowded
close to the glass panels, unseen and unheard
by the children. Hidden microphones pick up
sounds in the other room.
The observation program is primarily aimed at
students planning an elementary teaching career,
since high schoor$tudcnts cannot be brought tc
campus. (Senior high curricula calls for a change
in rooms and teachers for each class.)

Future teachers in the College of Education's
Human Development and Curriculum courses
study aspects of physical, mental, and social
growth by observing Lexington school children

Did Tiger Stadium Beat UK?
By HENRY ROSENTHAL

Kcmcl Sports Editor
"Tiger Stadium is probably
the toughest place for a visiting
team to play in the Southeastern
Conference, if not the country.
They'll have 68,000 people there,
and they'll all be making noise
all night long. The noise is intense," Coach Charlie Bradshaw
had said before his Wildcat team
left for Baton Rouge and a fatal
game with the Louisiana State
Tigers.
It seemed funny to recall these
words as the Wildcats walked
around the empty stadium Friday
prior to an afternoon of practice.
The stadium seemed almost
dead, only the scoreboard listing
LSU and KY showed any sign of
what was to happen the next

night.

their travel dress of blue blazers

ferocity that would occur the next
evening when at least one of

them, Howard Keyes, was to end
up with a broken leg and be out
for the season.
A few players remembered
when they had been in "Tiger
Tank" two years ago and they
told the others how noisy it was
when the LSU fans packed the
stadium. It appeared almost as if
the players were preparing to play

a Stadium instead of another football team.
It would not be too hard to
get this feeling. The Stadium has
a reputation for getting to the best
of teams.
The Stadium itself gives off an
ominous feeling. No matter where
one looks all he sees is the towering rows of seats which seem to
be endless like a spiral.
Nothing breaks the symmetry
of the Stadium. For someone
standing on the field, among
of white, purple,
and gold, there is nothing else to
see but the stadium and the sky.
The stadium is a world in itself.
To the players it was a mental
obstacle.
