All day election day, the area
around the polls was congested with
campaigners and voters. Election
lules prohibited campaigning closer
than 15 feet from the polls, and most
of the candidates and their supporters stood just outside the boundary line.
Lanchers Handed Cards
During the period the cafeteria
was open for lunch, persons entering
the ground floor of the SUB were
immediately handed cards by various workers for both parties.
Counting of votes was started immediately after the polls closed at
4 p.m.. and was completed about 6:15
p.m. in one of the most rapid counts
ever made.
Candidates and party leaders kept
going in and out of the
room, checking latest tallies. Bos
Todd, chairman of the election committee, kept a watchful eye over the
proceedings.
Swayze Won Early
The College of Education count
was the first completed. Suzanne
Swayze, the winner, left after receiving congratulations.
She came
back later to watch other results.

had taken all three, seats. Bob Jones,

"We do not contend that our record in this affair is above criticism."
University officials said in a
statement Wednesday answering recent charges by Judge
Saul Streit.
However, the officials added, "we
would offer the opinion that Judge
Streit went to unnecessary lengths
in blackening the reputation of a
University that has commanded respect throughout the land for its
scholastic standards, for the high
accomplishments of its faculty, and
for its steady and sound development over the last three decades."
Hie statement was released to answer blasts made against the University by Judge Streit in suspending
the sentences of three UK basketball
stars implicated in recent "fix"
scandals.
A fuller statement will be made
later, it was announced.
'Never Again'
The statement made following a
Joint meeting of the executive com- mittee of the Board of Trustees, the
board of directors of the Athletics
Association, and the executive com- miltee of the Alumni Association,
pledged :
"We are firmly resolved to make
such reforms in our athletics pro- gram as will assure the people 0f
Kentucky that never again shall a
scandal besmirch the name of their
University."
The statement said much of the
Judge's statement was based on
statements of fact, removed from
context and taken together with hi
statements or opinion. This "pro- duced a distorted and untrue pic- ture of theathletics program of the
University."
Some of the charges w hich the

However, tilings liavcu'l always leen that way.

deciding policies and courses of action. At least
it was that way at Bologna University.
Everv two years an upperclassman. called a Rector, would lx appointed, to take charge of things.
He didn't always have an easy time of it, since students have a tendency to be more appreciation of
the finer aspects of life, such as women and wine.
All teachers had to oW the Bector, who, in turn,
was acting on the advice of the students. A professor either swore to olx y liu? Rector or lost his right

Most gratifying of all. to students who frequently
catch parts of the lower onions for cutting classes,
is the fact that a prof at old Bologna JJ was pinched
in the salary if his classed fell below a certain number. In those days it didn't pay to put a class to
sleep.
Now and then, prolwitlfv in the spring, some of
the younger profs felt tlic urge to marry, only to
find their romances cut short by the honeymoon

with the cook in the kitchen. Each time it had been
a lone woman, unescorted, that looked sweetly up

passionate admirer in the rose arbor to the left.
No one ever smiled sweetly at the doorman, unless they were drunk. "Come in," Jeeves grumbled.
