SC's Ground Rules
elecThe strength of an
ted governing body sliould be used to
voice the opinions of a suborganiza-tio- n
in the most reliable and effective
way. Such should be the case with
Student Congress.

SC's Judiciary Committee, however, last week killed any hopes of
placing either voting or nonvoting
representatives in the congress' six
suborganizational groups by declaring such action unconstitutional. This
seems a bit like the "ole
When a proposal is "unconstitutional" it is either not provided for in
the constitution or does not follow
what the document has plainly set
forth as the groundrulcs of the organization. It is customary that when a
ruling such as this is passed down to
a governing body a more specific
reason for the decision should be offered.
As a result of

the Judiciary

Com-

mittees' decision, SC voted for a watered-down
version of the proposal
a review of the subgroups minutes

which will be submitted to the 'congress secretary.
Three weeks ago, when the proposal was first brought to the floor,
Student Congress had an opportunity
to more firmly establish itself as the
"parent governing organization" on
campus. The proposal was referred to
a committee, and for all practical purposes the committee was never given
a chance to study and develop the
idea.
Student Congress should be the
parent governing body for students.
The congress' constitution says in its
purpose that "Student Congress shall
be to serve as the official student
body authority in University affairs
relating to the student body as a
whole."
We can think of no more efficient
and influential way for SC to represent the entire student body than by
having either voting or nonvoting
in its
representatives

Raise Your Own
In the University's striving for
academic excellence, there remains a
looming problem. A student who
burns the midnight oil and takes his
benzidrine through four arduous years
gets not a sheepskin but an engraved
piece of paper. The days of the IBM
certificate are approaching.
Are the dollars so dear, or tradition so empty at UK that sheepskins
cannot be distributed to the graduates?
These years of crisis are characterized by "the poor in spirit," in which
an intellectual is caught cheating on
a quiz show, a University athlete is
known to be still using that greasy
kid's stuff on his hair, and real alcohol is kept in the women's dormitories in bottles labeled medicine or
perfume.
The cost for sheepskins may not

be as high as one expects. With so
much space on the Agricultural Experiment Station farms, couldn't a
little more area be devoted to sheep
a homegrown sheepskin would mean
so much more.
If business at the Experiment Station was good, maybe UK could develop a sizeable trade and employ
more students. The profession of
sheepskin writers would increase in
prestige and perhaps UK could sponsor an annual sheepskin writers' clinic.
Possibilities are endless.

That glorious day when professors
and seniors shall be perspiring in
traditional robes is coming. And when
Throckmorton's
parents see junior
cross the stage, let them rest assured
that their child has a genuine sheepskin, not a substitute.

Rampant Generalizations
II. VAUCHTER JR.
Instructor In History

By PAUL

To The Editor:
The stylistically barren and egocentric musings of Dr. P. L. Mellcn-bruc- h
printed in the March 6 issue of
your paper warrant some comment.
First of all, it should be made clear
.that- - Dr. Mellenbruch's remarks .lo
not represent any genuine ideological
or philosophical position: they are
repetitive and reflexive ad hominem
preachments, having as a standard
point of reference an injudicious use
of the word "I."
Moreover, they reflect mental agility which stops at the vocabulary
level, with cliche emphasis on such
terms as
bureaucracy,"
"bureaucrats entrenched," "rob us of
our rights and liberties."
There is a vastly moralized theme
undergirding Dr. Mellenbruch's exercise in logomancy. It grows indignant at the misfortune of bastardy,
spuriously concerned and xenophobic
at alien ideologies, and technically
seditious in its tirades against the federal government.
But of Christian humility and compassion there is nothing. One wonders if Dr. Mellenbruch's work in
theology has left him with the theologically sterile opinion that religion
has no concern for social and political
problems.
Rampant generalizations and stereotyped queries abound in Dr. Mellenbruch's article. Take, for example,
this truncated paragraph: "Now, what
about the charge that conservatives
are heartless and unsympathetic?"
Who asked the question? Or this example of political profundity: "Some
plan should be devised
(to limit
the government's taxing power)."

Resurrection of such Hooverian

This putrid fruit hung in the forest of man's existence will not be

are not only against him but of him.

Campus Parable
By CALVIN ZONGKER
Director, Baptist Student Union
A German proverb says that one
should not throw out the baby with
the bath water.

Every religious faith acquires practices, codes, and interpretations that
are not essential to its central core of
belief. Many of these elements are
important for order or understanding,

but some unfortunately

have developed as the result of misdirected and
provincial thinking.
The inquiring student must make
the vital distinction between the aspects of his faith that are essential
and those that are nonessential.
All too often an individual will
reject that which is of ultimate value
because he is troubled with some insignificant details.

Stalin Discipline Is Cracking Under Mr. K
By

The facade of monolithic power
and monolithic communist discipline
built up under Stalin is beginning to
show serious cracks under Khrushchev.
Not merely because of a tendency
toward autonomy in Communist parties abroad in connection with the
ideological division.
And not merely because Red
China is having to compromise with
her industrial and communal systems,
or because the Soviet Union appears
on the verge of compromising her
agriheavy industrial and
cultural interests for the sake of immediate food.
These are fundamentals, but they
are manifestations of problems which
Sino-Sovi-

long-rang- e

the two leading communist countries
have faced throughout their modern
histories.
Perhaps more revealing as to the
actual state of communist power and
discipline is the inability to cover
up the surface manifestations of these
deeper matters a process of covering
up to which they have always paid
a great deal of attention in attempting to maintain the facade before the
world.
These are things like Khrushchev's
gamble apd failure in the United Nations, where the underdeveloped
countries have almost completely declined to rally around his attempt to
seize leadership in the name of
There is the picture of Allied
planes flying their normal courses

down the Berlin corridor as though
the buzzing Soviets represented no
more than gnats on an elephant's
rump.
There is Mikoyan, perhaps the
Soviet leader who is closest to
Khrushchev, moving through East
Berlin crowds which gave him the
silent treatment despite the organizational efforts of the Communist
bullyboys in the plants and schools.
There is Ulbricht the former
Stalinist, long promised "sovereignty"
over East Germany which would place
him in position to further attack the
Allied position in West Berlin, returning from a pilgrimage to Moscow
with no more than a loan to aid his
sagging economy.
There is Poland, where officials
are offering little more than token op

position to a spreading movement
for more Polish-nes- s
and less
There is Iloxha of Albania, head
of a totally unlovely regime, yet
nevertheless able to thumb his nose
at the Kremlin.
And then there is NATO and the
United States, which jumped through
some small hoops because of the Berlin crisis, only to learn they didn't
have to, and taking a new position
of calm refusal to be buncoed any
longer.
When the communists are revealed in all of their inability to keep
their smaller embarrassments under
a blanket, then you can begin to
watch for a better look at some of
the big ones.

Drennon Discusses German R

West Germany will probably
find its future as a member of
the European Economic Community ratlier than as a single
state unified with Communist-controlle- d
East Germany, believes Dr. Herbert N. Drennon, associate professor of
political science.
Dr. Drennon said that after World

fill

War II Germany was split into two
temporary states, the Allies agreeing that Oeimany should at some
future time be reunited.
Today the western half of Germany is prosperous and still
Crowing; the eastern half Is on
the other hand living 'in poverty under Communist rule, Dr.
Drennon said.
He said America can hold West
Germany up to the world as a
showcase of the West. He also
Etated that the Soviet Union does
not like a prosperous West Germany, and It further does not want
to see a unified
Germany.
The Soviets are presently trying
to draw West Germany out of the
European Common Market, upon
whose resources the Market depends for life, and bring about a
"neutral" unified Germany, which
would later be brought into the
Soviet orbit, he added.
Dr. Drennon feels that the
confusion over German reunification lies In th
