James Shackelford, engineering freshman who suffered a
brain injury in an intramural
boxing match last week, was reported to be in good condition at
the St. Joseph's hospital, where
he underwent a head operation.

The constitutional salary limi- tation makes it too easy for pro-fessors and experienced men with
reputations to accept
jobs offering them several thousand
dollars more per year. Even south- ern colleges have upped their sal- aries and. as a result, are drawing
from us for the first time in history.
The president said, however, that
a misunderstanding has developed
on the salary problem at the Uni- versify. "The range of salary among
instructors and assistant professors
Is as good as any other in this area,"
he declared. Up to the salary of a
lull professor, pay is as good, if not
better. The difficulty comes when,
ner a capable man has been with
the school long enough to warrant
a jump in position to a full profes- sorship or deanship, his salary must
necessarily remain about the same
as formerly because he runs against
the $5,000 censtirutional limit.

mening salaries of about 75 persons,
However, since the money must
come through donations, the supplement for each individual cannot
be over $300, which makes the max-th- e
lmum salary obtainable only $5300.
"If I had permission to pay a few
higher salaries and make the salary
ee a little better, we would have
no trouble at all." the president as- serted. "We are out of line with the
ranee in these other universities."

i he paper. However, many others have
one just as far the other way.
I his wi iter ii inemlH is waitintr two hours for
a call from a dean who told a secietaiy "I'll call
him in a few minutes." We never did get the
facts on that stoiy. but next morning it got nice
display in the Lexington Herald.
Although a telephone is a wotuleifiil invention whith saves nun h reportoiial "leg work,"
it will not find students with desired information when they are weaving hourly from one
I'niversily building to another. Most of them
sk iu1 live or six hours on the campus eath tlav,
and frying it) Imd them at home is like looking
for the proverbial "needle in the haystack."
Kernel trit its lorget that the paper's editors
and retainers linist spend several hours each
h
in t lasses, in studying, eating and editing
a paper. 'Uiey also seem to forget that they can
not scnd eight hours jer day chasing down
news stories which, with a little initiative, could
lie phoned in.
Ii is a deplorable fact whith one realizes after
spending a lew years at the I'niversily that
there is a wholesale latk of interest by most UK
students tovvatd the organizations to which they
belong. Something but what it may be is hard
to discern has resulted in most students taking
little interest in anything other than acquiring
the rudiments of an education.
The Kernel is only a reflection of student
attitude whith is evident in most rampus organizations. The latk of lurmony and complete
voidncss of interest is apparent in a majority of
the student bod v. There seems no goal toward
whith to woik iheie's no pot of gold at the
end of the rainlmw.
Consequently, the, actual work which is
