is another group, small but vocal, that insists the tassel
should hang over the back of the cap. The tassel, they say, is a
symbol like the bullfighter's pigtail, signifying honor and
courage.
They are wrong. Ilullfighters wear pigtails for only one reason: to keep the backs of their necks warm. Do you have any
idea what a draft a bull makes when he rushes past. you? A
plenty big one, you may be sure.
In fact, upper respiratory infections, contracted in the wake of
passing bulls, are the largest single cause of bullring fatalities.
I have this interesting statistic from the Ilullfighters Mutual
Life Insurance Company of Hartford, Connecticut, one of tho
few insurance companies in Hartford, Connecticut, which writes
insurance exclusively for bullfighters. Incidentally, Hartford,
the insurance capital of America, is a most interesting city and
well worth a. visit if you are ever in New Kngland, as northeastern United States is, for some reason, called. Hartford can
be reached by bus, train, plane, and the Humboldt Current. Try
to make your visit in spring, when the actuaries are in bloom.

I digress. We were talking about what side to wear the
tassel on. An ingenious solution to this troubling problem Was
proposed a few years ago by Fred Sbjafoos, perhaps better known
as "The Quoit King of Delaware." An early forbear of Mr.
Sigafootj, Humboldt Sigafoos (who later invented the current
which bears his name) was granted a monopoly by King George
III un all quoits manufactured in Delaware. Somehow the royal
appointment was never rescinded and from that day to this,
every quoit made in Delaware has been a Sigafoos Quoit.
Well, sir, Fred Sigafoos once suggested that an equitable
settlement to the great tassel controversy would be to starch
the tassels so they stood upright anil hung on no side of the cap
at all. Mr. Sigafoos was, of course, only seeking to broaden his
market, because-aftegraduation, what can you do with an
upright tassel but hurl quoits at it?

Cooperation Needed At UK
The constant friction lxtwccn students and
the administration is a basic internal problem
at the University. It's a situation that prows
worse rather than better. Neither side seems
willing to compromise.
We feel that this is bad for UK. Too many
of the students have adopted an attitude of
complete indifference. The administration
often shows little respect for the students and
treats them as backward children.
Hight now is a crucial time for the University. The school is teetering, on the brink
of greatness. UK could become one of the
most respected1 universities in the country,
or just another1 mediocre college struggling
along on a meagre budget.
A good dose of cooperation would boot
the University more than anything. The
whole-heartesupport of the student body
would show the state legislature and the 'people of Kentucky that UK is a living, growing
institution rather than an incomprehensible
ivory tower. The latter description, sad to
say, is very prevalent among outsiders.
One way to achieve this cooperation is
through strong student backing of SGA.
SCA is the only organ that students have to
express tlieir opinions. Through SGA the administration gets an idea of what the students are thinking and what their attitudes
are. Up to nowvthe administration cannot
be blamed too much for taking a rather dim
view of student demands
Up until this week's election the general
student backing of SGA has not been pood.
Even within SGA an attitude of indifference
is manifest. Only a few members of tlie body
take the trouble to attend meetings and even
more infinitesimal number function on committees. This type of irresponsibility must
disgust the administration as much as it does
thinking students. It's a sad commentary
when eight members are booted out because
