Physics Student Explains
Vande Graaff Accelerator

Jim IE MIS IL

By ROBERT STOKES

Senior Physics Major

The nuclear research team of the University's

Depart-

ment of Physics is presently engaged in the installation of a
Van tie Graaff type charged particle accelerator.
The device, built by the High Voltage Engineering Corporation,

'

consists of a large metal sphere supported on an insulating column
and Is housed in the large cylindrical tube in front of the Chemistry-Physi- cs
Building.
The accelerator derives its name from the small friction generator
Invented by Robert Van de Graaff about 1935 to which It bears a
resemblance on a much larger scale.
The machine is designed to surmount the technical difficulties
Inherent in insulating the sphere when a five million volt potential
Is applied. The insulation Is provided by mechanically carrying the
electric charge up a rubberized belt, housed within the supporting
column; the belt moves with a speed of approximately 60 miles per
hour.
Also the sphere is surrounded by a mixture of gases at high
pressure which possesses sufficient insulating properties to prevent
lightning-lik- e
sparks.
An oscillator inside the sphere ionizes heavy hyrdogen gas and
the resulting "deuterons" are strongly repelled by the metal sphere
as a consequence of its voltage.
The particles are made to move down a vacuum tube and are
bent through a right angle by a massive electromagnet which serves
to remove all particles from the stream of deuterons which do not
possess a given energy.
The monoenergetic beam of "deuterons" is then directed against
a thin metal target. The individual particles possess enough energy
to literally split the atoms in the target. The results are then analyzed on electronic computers and after much Interpretive work can
contribute to a basic undersanding of nuclear phenomena.

LEXINGTON,

The Interfratct nity Council
issued a statement Tuesday
night warning freshmen that
rush is dosed until Oct. 18.
The council felt it necessary to
make the announcement

The grant was transferred from

GENE SAYRE
Explains Rush Rules

from several fraternities.
Freshman rush is closed until
the latter part of October each
year in order to allow members
of the freshman class to settle
down to college work and to form
a sound study schedule before
fraternity rush for the spring
semester begins.
"If a fraternity is caught rushing a freshman during the period
designated for silence the fraternity can be placed on social probation and the freshman involved in the violation can be forbidden to pledge any fraternity
for a period of one semester,"
Gene Sayre, IFC president, said.
"Concerning the matter of rush
violations," Sayre said, "it is our
and
hope that all fraternities
freshmen will realize that the
set up by the IFC are for
rules
the good of the freshmen in becoming firmly rooted in the work
schedule required in college and
for the overall academic betterment of the fraternity system."

Washington

President Kennedy told the Senate today that the limited nuclear
test ban treaty in no way limits his authority to use nuclear weapons
for the defense of the United States or its allies.
In a letter, Kennedy also gave "unqualified and unequivocal assurances" that the safeguards urged by the military joint chiefs of
staff would be fully carried out.
The president's letter was addressed to Sens. Mike Mansfield
of Montana, the senate democratic leader, and Everett M. Dirksen of
Illinois, the republican leader.

Volume in the first hour totaled 1.84 million shares, compared
with 1.11. Million yesterday and 2, 212,200 million shares Oct. 19, 1937.
Volume later slacked off somewhat and was estimated at 6.5 million

Three Negroes walked without incident onto the University of

In a registration procedure carefully staged by university officials, a Negro coed and two male students signed up for the fall

Forced to integrate by Federal Court decree, the university admitted Miss Henri Monteith, 18. of Columbia; Robert O. Anderson

State troopers and state law enforcement division agents patrolled

Dr. Truax, associate professor

The main purpose cf the study.
Dr. Truax said, is to observe
group therapy of hospital mental

(those mentally ill
outpatients
who do not require hospitalization i. The study is being done in
association with Eastern Kentucky State Hospital, Kentucky

Although the research is the
chief objective of the study, Dr.
Truax explained, the educational
value of the study is of great
importance. Through this study,

women

housed

within

its

walls.

It is not typical of the other
women's resident units, but it is
indicative. Six of the 12 residence
units- are functioning with more
than a capacity enrollment, said
Mrs. Dixie Evans Smith, director
of women's residence halls.
The overcrowded situation does
not go unnoticed by University
administration.
In past years
steps have been taken to alleviate the overcrowding.
In 1957, Holmes Hall was
opened. At this same time plans
were already in progress for
Blazer Hall.
Blazer Hall, is functioning at
its capacity of 184 women, while
Holmes Hall, has 319 women enrolled where it should only have
293. The reason for this is Blazer,
a "study dorm" can be selective
about the women living there,
while Holmes accepts all the
women it can handle, she said.
The capacity of each unit can
and does vary. The capacities
of Patterson, Jewell, and Boyd
Halls can be changed by redesignating rooms. By changing
study rooms to either two women
rooms or single rooms, the capacities of the halls can be increased
with no decreae in the efficiency
of the hall, said Mrs. Smith.
In the same way, Holmes and
Keeneland Halls can accommodate more women.
In 1960, the Women's Residence
Halls leased three sections of
Bowman Hall, from the Men's
Residence Halls. In successive
years, the women leased Breck-enridand Kincaid Halls from
the men.
This semester, when It was
decided that the women needed
still more room, Bradley Hall,
which has a larger capacity than
Kincaid, was leased. The women
also acquired the two remaining
sections of Bowman.
Mrs. Smith said the problem
arises when using men's housing

units for women, is a problem of
space. Where formerly three male
students lived, relatively comfortably, two women feel crowded. This is clue to women having
more clothing and paraphernalia
than men.
There are advantages and disadvantages to living almost anywhere. Perhaps the facilities in
the "quad" are not those designed by Franklin Loyd Wright;
on the other hand the conditions
aren't as crowded as they are in
the other
women's residence
units.
With the stress on academic
achievement, several women in
the freshman class asked for a
"study dorm" similar to Blazer,
she said. The Women's Residence
Halls, this year designed Jewell
Hall for this purpose. This changed the capacity level for Jewell.
At the present time Holmes
Hall has 319 women enrolled;
Patterson, 130; Jewell, 107; Boyd,
129; Blazer 184, and Keeneland,
344. Breckenridge has 165; Bowman, 138 and Bradley, 132. The
cooperative Houses, Hamilton and
d,
Weldon are to capacity; and
which is the
has 19. Two under its capacity.
Mrs. Smith said more help to
alleviate the overcrowding is in
the future. A new dormitory complex, to be built near the Sports
Center, Is projected, until then,
overcrowding will probably continue, unless the number of women going to collese decreases.

of the Student Center between 8

Council rules provide that all
men planning to pledge this
semester must have a 2.0 overall standing or a 2.0 for the previous semester and have completed at least 12 hours of college work.
Fraternity pledge presentation
will be at 2 p.m. Sept. 15 in Memorial Hall.
The council also voted to present a scholarship award to the
fraternity with the greatest
overall grade improvement in
any one semester. The award
involve a 50 percent reduction of a fraternity's IFC dues
for the following semester.
"The fraternities pay dues to
the IFC according to the number of active members in the
fraternity and the number of
pledges they have. The rates run
at S1.50 an active member and
$3 for each pledge. A 50 percent
reduction is a fair one as an
award we believe," Sayre said.
The council also voted to present awards to all individual
fraternity men who earn a 4.3
standing in a semester.

Moot

Moot Court competition
gets underway at :30 p.m.
today in the I.allerty Hall
courtroom with a cisil action
for libel against a newspaper
for leporting an incident of
a basketball player shaving
points.
A course in practice law court
is required of all third year law

students and each student argues
two trials: one civil and one
criminal. Civil trials are scheduled at 6:30 p.m. every Thursday
evening. The criminal cases are
heard at 1:30 p.m. on Fridays.
Prof. James R. Richardson, the
instructor for the course, acts as
judge in the civil cases, while
local judges and attorneys serve
as Judges in the criminal trials.
First year law students are
jurors for both actions.
The Moot Court allows seniors
to compete for a chance to argue
in the prize trial on Law Day,
for which a $300 cash prize is
presented by a Lexington law
firm. Law Day, a national observance of the legal profession,
is held early in May.
In tonight's trial. Don
and Lucien M. Hall argue
for the defendant-newspape- r.
The plaintiff is represented by
R. L. Ballou and Tex Fitzgerald.
The criminal trial Friday involves a case in which a policeman is shot during a raid on a
gambling establishment. A lamp
is overturned in the gun battle
and burns up the establishment,
thus destroying much of the evidence. Chip Rice and Clifford
Smith represent the state in its
prosecution and Dick Ward and
Jim Amato provide the defense.
The trials, which last about
three hours, are open to the
public. Trials follow the Kentucky Rules of Civil and Criminal Procedure as described in
the Kentucky Revised Statutes.

With the transition of North
America from an agricultural to an
urban society the original reason for
a long summer vacation to help with
farm work has gone. Hut in high
school planning another factor has
taken its place. That is summer family travel. For this reason high school
summer work has to be devoted largely to makeup courses, accelerated
courses or auxiliary rather than essential subjects.

China's current
Russian-baitincampaign apparently
is aimed at provoking the Kremlin
to break state or party ties with
Peking. So far Moscow has not risen
to the bait.
Seeming to sense clanger, the Russians itre displaying a patience that

Aside from propaganda attacks

The
squads Peking
sends abroad with even the most insignificant details of their behavior
and conversation outlined would be
incapable of creating such a scene
without orders.
The impression left by this and
other provocative actions by Chinese
in recent months clearly indicates a
deliberate attempt to infuriate the
Russians.
China might want a break in party
or even government relations, and
hopes to force Moscow to take the
step or to give the Chinese the pretext for rupturing relations.
But Soviet propaganda organs in
heaping abuse on the Chinese, keep
well within guidelines laid down by
major patty statements on the
quarrel.
The major Soviet leliain is Russia's avowed dedication to peace and
its opposition to alleged Chinese demands lor war.
