Delegates to a small business cli-
nic held at the University Monday.
were told that Defense Department
contracts would not be dropped into .
their laps. ,

Commander Philip Ashler. Chief‘
of the Defense Department's Small-
Business Office. said there was mon-
ey to be made and money to be
spent. but in dealing with the gov-
emment those with something to
sell must exercise as much initia-,
tive. enterprise. and judgment as
they would in dealing with private,
customers. ‘

The most important thing to be
learned by those who wish to do
business with the government. Ash- .
lcr said. is where to go and whom
to see in regard to contracts. The
government is. he said. trying to
simplify this problem by eliminating
as much red tape as possible. l

Approximately 000 Kentucky busi- .
nessmcn attended the clinic. It was
sponsored by Sen. Virgil Chapman,
a member of the Senate Committee
on Small Business. and arranged by

Rare Book
Is Acquired
By Library

The University library recently
acquired an extremely rare book.
according to Dr. Lawrence S.
University
libraries. The book is called an
incunable. which means it was
printed before midnight. Dec. 31,
1500. he said.

The volume, printed in Venice in
1497 by the famous printer Aldus
Manutius. contains the treatise “0n
the Egyptian Mysteries". It was
written by the philosopher lambli-
chus in Syria in the fourth century.
The book is the earliest printed vol-
ume in the University's collection.
It displays the qualities of the
craftmanship that
books famous throughout Europe in
the fifteenth century.

Dr. Thompson pouited out that
alt h o u g n such bibliographical
rarities were extremely desirable ill
a great research collection such as
that in Lexington. the libraries can-
not afford to invest their funds for
acquisition in them until cl. “lflll is
available to provide for man; ex-
pensive curreiit reference books.

This recent rarity was acquired
on a trade With the Emroy Univer-
sity Libraries in Atlanta.

Wait Till It’s Over

Now that Lexington and UK have such an outstanding con-
cert and lecture series. they should acquire the manners to go
with it.

The hundreds of people who streamed out of the Coliseum
continuously during the last half of Saturday night's lecture proh-
ably left Mr. Davis with a doubtful impression of Lexington.

UK can at least be proud of the fact that most of the people
who left were townspeople. If the students can sit still that long
with no backs on their seats. it seems that the people who are
lucky enough to be able to relay could do likewise.

People who go to a lecture know what to expect. They should

In last week‘s letters to the editor,
there appeared an article labeled
“Southern Pride"!

I would like to reply by saying.

that this is the United States we are
living in: and. third. that. this is

longer. Those who had good reason for leaving or who sat very
near an exit have a little more defense. But the hundreds of'
others who kept the Coliseum in a constant uproar for thirty min-
utes showed lack of consideration for the speaker.

Let's continue to keep the students' record clean. If anyone
leaves at the next lecture. let it he outsiders and not University
students.

Welcome !

To those former students and friends of the University w 0
have come back to join in Homecoming activities, the Kernel ex-
tends a hearty welcome. _

Never has Homecoming week been filled with so many colorful
events. The Lexington homecoming committee is to be con-
gratulated for making Kentucky’s mid—century homecoming well

 

—- worth coming home for.

A rousing Kentucky victory on Stoll Field will put the final
touch to an exciting week. And in the meantime. why not join in
Suky’s big pep rally and torchlight parade at 6:45 tonight at the
corner of Lime and Euclid? Let's show the visitors in town that
Kentucky still has that old spirit that used to be so much in evi-

dence at pep rallies.

want to do as individuals, then it is

nobody's business but. our own.
Students at this University and

many others have been arguing and

.re-flghting the Civil War for many
, years. but I have never known of a

case where they actually fell out
over it. It is merely a form of re-
creation that hurts no particular

person in feelings or otherwise. As!
for the ignorance and prejudice. in!
the South. I think that this poor.

uninformed individual is so com-
pletely engulfed in this dastardly
“crime" that we are committing
that he has lost all form of right-
eousness and decency.

How about the North? The East
and the West? Do they not too, have
prejudices? Are they all classified
so very high above what is called
ignorance? Is this a moral issue?
Or is he just so confused in general
that he must blow off steam!

I am a little ashamed of my own
ignorance. however. because I
haven‘t been able to fathom what
our “Southern” admirer is! Does he
want to be a missionary and go
down south and educate us? Or
maybe he's a preacher and wants to
get rid of all prejudice in the coun-
try and is starting with the south.

I do find a bit of the poet in him
when he said. . . help it out of
its chains of ignorance and preju-
dice."

I‘ve finally concluded that he
wants to be connected with a rail-
road in some way, and he seems to
have enough steam to take the
whole UK student body to Knoxville
this month to see the Tennessee
game!

While traveling in Europe this

past summer as SGA'." representa-
tive. I had my (‘_\'(’> opened in many
respects. Some of these were along
the lines of the Communist threat
as well as European attitudes to-
wards America.

As early as a few davs after leav-
ing New York. I found out from the
Canadians on board the ship that
the good old USA does not seem to
be as popular and respected as I al-
ways had read in the newspapers
and had heard over our radios. The
first of these and similar thoughts
came one day when there was a
debate on the proposed federation
of the US and Canada. Other ideas
also were expressed and exchanged
later as the ship sailed toward Rot-
terdam, and also on the way back.

The concensus of opinion which I
gathered aboard ship and during, my
travels on the continent are in part
as follows: It seems as if we are:
not the symbol of purity and right- i
cousness that I had heard we were. ‘
We get too excited. too often. We
often look down our noses at other
peoples and refuse to admit that;
there are two sides to every problem. ‘
,no matter how open and shut it
may appear.

It seems as if in the US, we try
-to melt all differences. We try to
rid ourselves of all heritages and‘
languages, no matter what they
might be. We seem to want to cast .
off all cultural differences and mold
every person into a typical 100 per
cent American. Conversely. to the
north. our Canadian neighbors seem 1
to have a suitable answer to this
situation. The majority of Cana-l
' dians speak two languages. They re-
tain their varied heritages concur-l
. rently with their national character- .
istics and attitudes. In short, they
have two distinct. yet compatable:
cultures which go together to make 3
a much fuller and richer back— 3
ground than many Americans have. |
Also their command of two Ian-g
guages. it goes without saying. is a
wonderful asset. Now I would like‘
to say at this point that these
Canadians are our closest
