President John W. Oswald was to recommend to
the Board of Trustees today that the School of
Biological Sciences, established July 1, be designated the Thomas Hunt Morgan School of
Biological Sciences. The school, which is a division
of the College of Arts and Sciences, will include
the departments of botany, microbiology, zoology,
biochemistry, cell biology, physiology, and biophysics. Dr. Samuel F. Conti, formerly of Dartmouth College, serves as director.
The new school is UK's "first step in developing an outstanding program in the biological
sciences," President Oswald said in his speech
at the banquet on the final night of the conference.
Oswald also said that the University plans to
make the Morgan symposium an annual event to
bring together the "world's finest biologists."
The conference will not be confined to any single
field of biology, but "will encompass all aspects
of the broad discipline."

Inside Todays Kernel

Dr. Oswald announced that a Thomas Hunt
Morgan memorial
scholarship has been
this year with John Owen Eaves, a
freshman from Frankfort, being the receipient of
the first award. The scholarship funds were made
possible by a gift from the Alumni Association
presented to the University President's Progress
Fund. Oswald in turn presented half of the gift
to the Scholarship Fund.
The featured speaker of the evening was a
former student of Morgan's, Dr. Ceorge Beadle.
Beadle, now president of the University of Chicago,
shared the Nobel Prize in 195S for physiology and
medicine. Instead of giving a scientific talk, he
fondly recalled his friendship with Dr. Morgan,
which began in 1931 at the California Institute
of Technology. While in California, he lived in
Morgan's old house, and even played tennis with
the eminent geneticist, who was almost twice
his age.
Dr. Beadle remembered Morgan as a man not
concerned with recognition or formality.
He had the "very human characteristic of
being very nervous before a public engagement,"
said Dr. Beadle. His throat would dry up and he
would have trouble speaking as his appearance time
neared. But, according to Dr. Beadle, a dose of
a "special remedy Dr. Morgan learned about as
a Kentuckian" quickly cured his dry throat.
As a teacher, Morgan was not at all methodical,
Beadle said. He would become so engrossed in an
experiment that he would forget about his lecture
periods and have to be reminded by the students.

At the time Curran was inducted the Louisville Courier-Journreported a spokesman
for the Selective Service in Frankfort said that draft boards had
exercised a "liberal policy" on
deferments of teachers but there
was a "gradual tightening up"
because of demands in the Vietnam war.
The newspaper report added
that the tightening meant that
not only teachers but also college
instructors, chemists, engineers
and other groups not touched
before have received induction
notices.
Stephenson speaking today
said that a determining factor
in whether a teacher may or
may not be drafted could depend
on how great a need for teachers
existed in the county where his
local board was located.
He said that Curran's induction did not indicate any new
state-wid- e
policy to draft teachers. "I think the small number

Jack Weller, author of "Yesterday's People: Life in Contemporary Appalachia" and minister-at-larg- e
for the United Presbyterian Church in Eastern Kentucky, will speak in the Grille
at 6 p.m. Wednesday.
The informal meeting is part
of the Appalachian program
sponsored by the YVVCA.
"Yesterday's People" is an
analysis of the Appalachian mind
and personality. Through living
and working with the Southern
Appalachian Mountaineer, Weller has gained an understanding
of a way of thinking which seems
more familiar to another century
than to our own, the book's
publisher says.
A native of New York, Weller
was appointed by the Presbyterian Church, U.S.A. tothe West
Virginia Mountain Project, assuming directorship for five years.

'Forward Look'
Opens At Gallery

By CONNIE ELAM
Kernel Arts Writer
"A Forward Look", the first of the series of the new Art Gallery
Program, began September 18, in the Art Gallery of the Fine Arts
Building. This exhibition is termed as "A Review of the Collection
and a Preview of a New Gallery Program", which has been expanded
beyond the teaching aims to include the public, and not just the
University.

College.

The display, consisting of
reproductions of the originals,
was brought to Elizabethtown
by Don Wallis, Instructor of
English. Wallis traveled to Washington during the summer and
was so impressed with the Gallery
he contacted the curator and
arranged the showing.
The display, entitled "A General Survey and History of Art",
will be open the rest of the week
in the college's Convocation Hall.
The National Gallery has
fifteen such displays available to
institutions. Each such display
deals with a specific genre or
theme.
"The Gallery also sent a
collection of slides that will be
presented at the opening of each
show," Wallis said.
Wallis intends to change the
display each month and have
each series of reproductions pertain to the season. "Great Religious paintings will be exhibited
during the Christmas season,"
Wallis concluded.

Perhaps the most ideally
placed painting in the entire
exhibition is "Rocky Coast" by
William Richards. The light and
the thick brush strokes make
the rocks appear wet from the
waves.
Also included in this University exhibition are bronze
figures such as the one of "Daniel
Webster", who has given a Napoleonic look by artist Thomas
Ball. "The Angelus", by Antoine
Gaisley, is a bronzed rural couple
praying over their gathered crop.
No art exhibition would be
complete without various concepts of the human body. Two
paintings, "Nude" by the French
painter, Rodin; and "Female
Nude" by Aristide Mailliot add
to the variety of this display.
The paintings, prints, drawings, and sculptures used in "A
Forward Look", which will run
until October 9, are furnished
by the Margaret I. King Library,
Patrons of Graphics, Charles II.
Bowyer Memorial Collection,
and individual art collectors.

NATS . . . EATS" editorial, 30 percent of your "A Total Guarantee"
editorial, and all of Carl Seider's
third, printable complaint of the
year. All I had to do was cut
out the contest entry form. Nothing
was lost by this move. Why don't
you try supporting the school that
I

foots your bills?

Corrects Story
In the Sept. 13th article by
Frank Browning, which was written in regard to A. B. Chandler's
speech to the Law School Forum,

he states that Mr. Chandler said
that if the revised Constitution
is accepted, corporations shall not
be allowed to hold land while
such land is not of immediate use
to them after a five year period,
at which time the property must
be sold to the Commonwealth.
Might I suggest a retraction on
the part of either Mr. Browning
or Mr. Chandler, whomever is at
fault. Nowhere in the proposed revised Constitution is it suggested
that the above is true. What it
does say is that:
"No corporation shall hold any
real estate, except such as may be
proper and necessary for carrying
on its legitimate business, for a
longer period than 25 years." Not
five years, gentlemen, but rather
25, which this individual thinks is
a reasonable length of time, particularly when such land could be
used to attract desperately needed
new industry into the Common-

wealth.

Charter Partially Separates Judges, Politics

By WALTER GRANT
Kernel Editor-In-Chic- f
Tht' political I tattles of many
Kentuc ky judges will be cut short
if the promised new constitution
is approved in the November
general election.
Kramers of the new constitution made every effort to take
judges out of politics and to
raise the standards of persons
within the judicial branch of

government.
The methods of selecting
judges in the new document are
modeled after the Missouri Plan.
Seventh In

A

Series

Members of the Constitution

He-visi-

Assembly contend the
plan, or a modification of it,

has proved successful in several

states.
One of the most significant
changes concerning the judicial
branch is a provision requiring
that all judges be attorneys. Although judges in the higher
courts must be attorneys now,
most judges in the lower courts
are not trained in the law. More
than 100 of 120 county judges
do not hold law degrees.
Members of the Constitution
Revision Assembly think this re

quirement will greatly upgrade
the state's judicial system.
Judges will be elected or
appointed, depending on the
level of court in the promised
four-tie-

r

system.
In short, judges for the District Courts and for Circuit Courts
in districts of less than 50,000
population will be elected by
popular vote.
Judges for Circuit Court districts of more than 30,000 population and judges for the Court
of Appeals and the Supreme Court
will be appointed, but only after
being nominated by special
judicial nominating commissions.
However, the people will retain a voice even in the appointive
judicial positions. At specified
times, the names of the appointed
judges will be placed on the
ballot, and voters will decide
whether or not to keep the judges
in office.
These judges actually will not
be involved in politics, however,
because their names will be on

the ballot without opposition
from another candidate.
The actual steps in filling
vacancies in appointive judicial
positions and in voting a judge
off the bench are:

LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS

vacancy in the office of
be filled by the
governor from a list of three
names presented to him by an
1. A

judge shall

appropriate judicial nominating

commission.

Two types of nominating

commissions will be established:
one for appellate judges of the
Supreme Court and the Court
of Appeals, and one for each
Circuit Court district.
Each commission will have
seven members: three attorneys
elected by the bar; the Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court
as chairman and three
including at least one
Democrat and one Republican,
appointed by the governor.
