Construction of this building

has done away with the sidewalk
between the tennis courts and Maxwell Place, the president's home.
Clearing of the land for the
ite of the building began Satur
day. Many ttudents watched the
bulldozers rutting down the trees,
the trucks hauling away the brush,
and the scrapers leveling the land.
Because of the clearing of the
site, and the removal of the sidewalk, students and faculty members will no longer have the use
of the short cut to Rose Street.
Although the sidewalk leading

to Rose Street will no longer be In
use, plans call for new sidewalks
around the new building.

Zeroing in on the future
our aim is to develop the supercommunica-tion- s
system that will be needed to meet the demands
of tomorrow. And we're constantly shooting new ideas
at this target.
At Gen Tel,

In our 24 research laboratories, more than 3500 scientists and engineers have their sights set on entirely
new concepts in order to achieve these results.
Example: a task force of General Telephone & Electronics scientists, working in the unexplored areas of
electroluminescence and photoconductivity, have

Pershin

developed an operating model of a switching device
with no moving parts, that may revolutionize telephone
communications. It is a thin wafer only 3 inches square
that may someday connect and disconnect up to
10,000 telephone lines.
Meanwhile, this new discovery holds promise of having
numerous applications in other fields, including switching and read-ou- t
devices for electronic computers.

Mles
The group is open to all basic R.O.T.C. Cadets
interested in Drill or Rifle Team. Meetings will
be at 4:00 p.m. or 5:00 p.m. Monday, Wednesday
and Thursday at Buell Armory.

Research is but one of the many areas in which General
Telephone & Electronics is thinking and working ahead
-- not only to mee today's communications needs, but
tomorrow's as well.

A question

that surely must be in

the minds of many of those who attended the Blazer Lectures in the
Taylor Education Building Auditorium struck us Monday night as we
listened to Blazer Lecturer Jack Bell.
. We wonder why the lectures could
not be held in a better hall than that
of the Education Building. The auditorium is too small to accommodate
more than a mere handful of spectators comfortably. Those 250 who
attended Mr. Bell's talk were for the
most part uncomfortably warm because jof the unseasonable weather
and poor ventilation. They were
cramped in the tightly packed seats
of the cracker box structure and barely able to hear parts of the speech because there was no public address
system.
There are a number of other meeting places available on the University
campus. They range in size from
cavernous Memorial Coliseum's capacity of more than 13 thousand to

the 0 who may be accommodated
in the various Student Union meeting

rooms.

Ideal for the Blazer Lectures
would be Guignol Theatre with a seating capacity of 425, Only 32 more than
the listed capacity of 393 for the Education Building Auditorium. Guignol
has ample leg room
is
and comfortable seats, and superior
accoustics which are further enhanced
by a public address system.
We feel that the transfer of the
Blazer series to Guignol would be a
wise one. Some would undoubtedly
think it better to continue to hold tle
series in the Education Building because a sparse crowd there is not so
noticeable as it would be in Guignol,
but the better facilities of Guignol
could serve to attract larger audiences.
And even if Guignol did not draw
larger assemblages, there would be
far more benefits for the present small
groups who deserve something better
than the Education Building

Gimbling In The Grill
A voluptuous blonde slinks-uto
the juke box and deposits a nickel.
p

The music begins to play.
Suddenly her torso begins to gyrate in a most uninhibited manner,
not unlike that of a burlesque queen
d
doing a
routine.
Breathing heavily, she steers her
twitching torso toward a nearby table
where her friends are pounding out
the rhythm of the song with spoons
and fists. Wearing expressions of almost unbearable ecstasy, they are also
singing the lyrics of the song she has
just played "There's A Still On The
Hill."
Where is this orgiastic scene take
hanging place? At some
out for high .school students? On
bump-and-grin-

soda-shopp-

"Teenage Bandstand," perchance?
No, this scene is set in the SUB
Grill here on the University campus.
In this institution, dedicated to the
refinement of cultural tastes and intellectual values, the Grill juke box
stands, shining and shouting, as a
symbol of musical idiocy. One hundred of. its 120 selections are unadulterated rock 'n roll. There are no light
classics or jazz records.
Like Lewis Carroll's "slithy tothes
that gyre and gimble through the
wabe," the juke box jabberwocks dominate the Grill with their nonsensical
noise.
Sad, sad. But at least it keeps them

off the streets and out of the

Campaign Waste
If the old cliches are fun to review,
other aspects of the campaign are
quite the reverse. This campaign must
have broken all records for sheer
physical activity and output of words.
Press coverage was more lavish than
ever before. Jet planes were available
for personal appearances as far apart
as Alaska, Chicago, and Los Angeles,
all in the same day. Television moved
in to play an entirely new role. Yet
most voters who followed all this must
have had a feeling that something im-

portant was missing.
There was the daily grind: arrival
at an airport, motorcade, cheering
crowds, the locally tailored version of
the candidate's standard "speech,
and the
and
return to the airport again. Everybody saw the candidates if not in
person, then on the air. What we failed to get on these occasions was a
clear notion of what the candidates
really stood for, what they really
thought. The great debates were on
the whole a disappointment. What
each candidate said fell pretty .con

sistently short of its target. Ideas were
never really developed. The great debates were tantalizing rather than
helpful.
Nor, except in a few instances,
were ideas and policies and programs
given fuller development by other
means. Was ever a presidential campaign spread so widely and spread
so thin?
At the end of the campaign, the
two candidates showed only too plainly the effects of this competition in

physical endurance; and there is
much evidence, as for instance in the
letters that have come our way, that
people are disappointed and depressed by this wasteful squandering of
energy. Our campaigns are too long,
and modern devices available for
bringing candidates to the people
seem to have made campaigning harder rather than easier. It is sheer extravagance to take this much out of
a man before he even reaches the
White House."

To The Editor:
It has long been a qucstion'm our
minds why such an outstanding journalistic enterprise as the Kentucky
Kernel, refuses to recognize the existence of the College of Engineering.
Looking over any recent copy of the
Kernel, it is quite apparent that the
staff searches very deep into the
realms of the intellectual universe in
order to fill the pages with Greek
mythology, local Olympic highlights,
and selectual advertisements. Yet information concerning achievements
and developments of local professional groups and individuals is not only
ingnored, but refused consideration
when material is presented to the

To The Editor:
I would like to comment on the
quality of food being served the students in Donovan Hall Cafeteria.
t the beginning of the year the
food was very good quality and now
the food becomes worse and worse
as the year progresses. We are served
s
a
meal only once a week
and it is of a caliber that should be
served all of the time.
Monday night, undoubtedly the
worst meal of the year was served.
Besides not offering enough variety,
we were not given a sufficient amount
of what we "chose" to eat. The menu
p
read as follows: 1
of stew or
a small Ixnvl of chili with spaghetti;
"choice" of one vegetable; jcllo, garden or tossed salad; three warm rolls;
chocolate pie or angelfood cake; iced
tea or milk to drink and a juice glass
of grapefruit juice! The stew
