You can read Henry Ward's campaign slogan
two ways. Co for Ward in '67, or go forward in
'67.
Either way is right, thegubernatorial aspirant's

supporters say.
Tuesday night they held a reception at Lexington's Red Mile Clubhouse to get more Fayette
Countians to go for Ward in the current primary
campaign.
The affair was an exercise in modern practical
politics.
"Look at this," said one of Ward's aides sweeping his arm around, "There must be fifty different
little groups of people making small talk, meeting
others, all enthused about the candidate."

Community Colleges Need
To Understand Their Role
By HELEN McCLOY
Kernel Staff Writer
The number one problem facing community
colleges, according to education leader Willis

lay leaders, faculty, and the public in general
about "what community colleges really stand for."
Because there is not time for the faculty to

government funds."
The retiring dean of education agrees with Don C. Rale,
Kentucky assistant superintendent for instruction, that the
increased number of emergency
teachers in Kentucky this year
came alxnit largely becausequal-ificteachers are being used to
implement the U.S. FJementary
and Secondary Kducation Act.
Of the 200 Kentucky school
districts, 13 areemployiug emergency teachers, compared with
only 90 districts last year.
The specialist positions were
created under Titles I and II
of the Education Act. Such jobs
are in areas of remedial reading,
health, guidance and counseling,
library service and special education to handicapped children.
These and other programs already have been activated in
Kentucky.
A total of $25.8 million has
been allocated to state schools
this year under terms of the act.
"It is impossible to tell when
the need for emergency teachers
w ill peak, because it depends on
how much the government will
put into these funds in the future," Dean Cinger said.
"There is no backlog of quale
ified teachers," he added.
this drain began, Kentucky

"Kentucky teacheis now eaui

Dean Cingcr pointed out that
Northern Kentucky has always
had a problem because of its
proximity to Ohio, which also
pays higher teacher salaries.
Louisville and Jefferson County,
he said, are forced to hire emergency teachers because of the
population increase and double
school shifts, and the county's
Indinearness to

The emergency teacher situation will continue to grow for

before it gets better," Dean Cinger believ es. He said the program

that even more money will be

A Kentucky emergency teacher must have at least

The Philharmonia Hungarica,
with guest pianist Ludvvig Hoffmann, brilliantly performed four
intricate and precise compositions by musical greats Haydn,
Beethoven, Liszt, and Hartok.
Many of the musicians escaped from communist Hungary
during the 1936 rebellion, regrouping in Vienna to continue
their careers under director
Caridis. This is the orchestra's third tour of theUnited
States.
Haydn's overture to the opera

Beethoven's "Symphony

It is unfortunate that more
people didn't take advantage of
this fine orchestra. Their story
of escape and freedom is clearly
overshadowed by their capacity
to musically entertain.

The wild, sensuous, erotic
dance of death is recreated in the
listener's imagination. Bartok's
music is full of atonal chords
that fill the gap left by the
absence of the dancers.

The Land Of Cotton
Two letters appearing in today's
letters column raise anew the
question posed by two graduate
students during the fall semester
final examination period:
Should Dixie be played at UK
athletic events?
The two students asked Band
Director Fred Dart and Athletic
Director Bernie Shively to drop
the song from the band's portfolio since it is often identified
with the diehard segregationist
movement and is, in fact, the Ku
Klux Klan song. In addition, the
playing of Dixie at UK athletic events is often the focal point
of the chorus of "glory, glory segregation," the waving of Confed- -

It is indeed unfortunate that
students feel inspired to rise and
cheer to the playing of Dixie
and that Confederate flags are so
conscious a part of the athletic
scene, especially football games.
toDixie is as out

plates with the words "Forget,
Hell!" superimposed over a Confederate flag.

gram,
We do not think the song should
be banned entirely. It has been
played and sung for many years
and is rich in tradition. Yet, it
is a credo for segregationists and
an insult to Negroes.
Dixie, we think, should be
viewed by Band Director Dart in
that light not merely because it
is pleasant music or a good cheer
song.

The song Dixie was written before the Civil War and I imagine it
will always be around unless some
Yankees and Communists take it
away the song (sic). The song refers that people are glad to be
in Dixie just as other regional
songs are about the West and the
North.

President Johnson says he sees
no North, no South, no West but
the people know that it is not so
in their hearts. The Southemors
(sic) have their heart in Dixie and
that is where it will stay.
Songs are intended to make
people happy and the song Dixie
does just this for Southemors (sic).
I am sorry that the Yankees are
jealous that they don't have a
song as happy as Dixie. It is not

are made by the Yankees and Communists that the KKK (Kentucky
