Needless to Fay this is Homecoming weekend.
The interesting thing about this
particular event is that by the time
it gets here everyone is too tired
to really enjoy it.
For the past few weeks now the
midnight oil has brrn burning in
the darkened workshops of the
housing; units. Professors might
think that this energy was being
used preparing for mid-tertests.
Tills is certainly a mistaken
because everyone knows
how vitally impoitant it is to
create a display that's going to
win. Sometimes I think that pot of

flasks filled with bath tub gin of the
20's. Gone, too, are Joe College and
Betty Boop, the whiz kids of the 30's.
G.I. Joe, the campus cynic of the 40's,
and the enthusiastic sophomores of
the 50's have packed their bags and
also departed.
Homecoming, 1960, offers a different campus and a far different type
of student. Demon Rum has not completely abandoned Homecoming, but
his role is not that of the past. Students have not lost all of the frivolity of preceding years, but they have
lost much of the juvenile elation at
building the displays and floats that
were once such an integral part of
Homecomings. We feel fairly certain
that the alumni will not have Blanton
Collier's scalp hanging from their collective belt Monday should the Wildcats fail to turn in their 13th consecutive Homecoming victory tomorrow.
All in all, it looks like a disappoint-

ing weekend for those alumni who return tomorrow anticipating a day of

wild and reckless youthful abandon.
But Homecoming, 19C0, needn't be a
complete loss for even the most ardent
revelers among the returning graduates and
almost-graduate-

s.

This is a time of change at the
University. Many changes have already been made and many more are
forthcoming. All of the $27,000,000
Medical Center is under roof and
dolHearing completion;
lar construction projects will soon be
underway on several campus buildings; UK's Spindletop Farm will house
a great industrial research park; the
Honors Program has begun; the Unidollars
versity has over a
worth of research being conducted.
multi-millio- n

half-millio-

These things should be pointed out
to the alumni. They should be shown
how their university has become a
great university. The earnestness of
the new crop of students as they
strive toward an education should be
emphasized.
There is no cause to mourn because the old Homecoming traditions
are dying. There should be the joy
of an opportunity to institute new traditions and win better friends for a
greater University.

Readers Strike Again
To The Editor:
Once again, the Kernel has put its
foot in its mouth by distorting and
failing to report all the facts concerning a matter of editorial interest. The
writer of yesterday's editorial refers
to the fact that last year's Homecoming queen was disqualified because
pledges of this fraternity "failed to
observe the rules governing the election." It was not a matter of the
pledges failing to observe the rules,
rather it was a matter of the active
chapter being incognizant of the rule
concerning campaigning in the main
lobby of the Student Union Building.
The pledges only campaigned illegally for two or three hours before
a member of the Homecoming Com

mittee asked them to leave, which
they did. The young lady referred to
by the writer won by such a majority
that it was fairly evident that the
three hours of illicit campaigning
proved negligible in her victory and
it was further evident that she was
the overwhelming choice of the campus among those nominated.

few puerile fraternity pledges," I believe the Kernel should delve in less
belittlement and name calling and
more in the determination and investigation of the facts before printing an editorial of this nature.

On Firing Coaches
A college football coach is in a

most unenviable position. He can't
win. A team loses because of the
coach's ineptness and wins in spite
of his blunders.
Therefore, when a team has a poor
season, the automatic reaction is to
fire the coach. The reasoning is based
on simple mathematics, one new
coach is easier to acquire than 50 new
football players.
Even coaches who are usually successful are not immune to criticism
during a bad year as is evidenced by
the situation at Louisiana State and
Oklahoma Universities.
Every year at this time cries go up
here for Blanton Collier's scalp. One
is led to believe that the dissatisfaction is a popular uprising and if the
coach is retained it is over the objections of every fan and alumnus. This
year has been no exception.
We should not be misled. The
"alumni pressure" which coerces many
college administrators into firing

competent coaches is often generated
by a few vociferous "alumni" who
never visit the campus anytime but
Saturday.
Whether Coach Collier is to blame
for the Wildcats poor conference
showing is not for the Kernel to determine. Neither should it be determined by alumni pressure which, if not
generated, is spread and exaggerated
by sports writers from Lexington,
Louisville, and even Knowille.
We merely suggest that whether
the coach is retained should be tle
prerogative of the administration, Athletic Association, and the coach himself. Pressure from angry alumni and
"experts" from the sports pages should
not influence the decision.
