Delta Gammas Plan Big Move
To New House Next Semester
By GARY IIAWKSWORTH
Kernel Staff Writer

The Delta Gamma sorority
will move into its new house
next semester, said Stacia
Yadon, DG president.
"Our clothes will be put in the

new house the week before finals,"
said Stacia, "and we will be moving in the first day of the spring
semester."
The new sorority house is
located on the corner of Columbia and Pennsylvania Ave. The
house is designed with a sub-lev- el
basement (half underground
and half above ground level) and
two floors.
The kitchen, dining room, a
recreation room, and laundry and
storage facilities will be located
in the basement," said Stacia.

Links Sale
Nets $476
On Corsages
Links sold 12,076 mum corsages during the homecoming
weekend to net a profit of
$476 to go toward an academic scholarship. '
Sue Perry, chairman of the

sale, said about 200 more corsages
were sold this year than last.
The mums were provided by the
University Horticulture Club. This
froup also made the corsages.
The scholarship will be awarded to a girl in the junior class
who might not be able to complete her education without financial aid.
The award will be given at the
Stars in the Night program la the
spring.
Links is a Junior women's honorary whose members are chosen
for their scholastic achievement
and participation in extracurricular activities.

The first floor will have a room
for the housemother, a guest
room, and four girls rooms.
"The second floor will contain
only living quarters," Stacia explained. "There will be eight
rooms on the second floor."
"We have seen the plans for a
new house on paper for two years
now," Stacia said. "We didn't
think we would ever get the new
house, but now we really do
have it."
Stacia explained that there
.would be four girls to a room.
This means 16 girls will live on
the first floor and 32 on the second floor. "It's wonderful," she
said. "We will have rooms for
all of the chapter members.".
"We are being kept in suspense
about most of the details of decoration," Stacia explained, "but
we do know that most of the interior will be white with gold accents."
Stacia said that they have
turned over to Mrs. Thomas
Moore, a Delta Gamma Alumna.
Hubbuch In Kentucky is the

firm who is handling the interior
decoration.
"I don't know exactly what the
house will look like when it is
completed," Stacia added, "but I
do know that we will have more
than adequate closet space well
at least enough closet space."
The new house is being financed with loans from the University and from Delta Gamma
national headquarters.
"It really is terrific," Stacia
exclaimed, "to see plans which
you have looked forward to for
such a long time actually turn
into a real brick and stone construction."
"The new house will be finished during the vacation between semesters and will be ready
to be occupied as soon as we
return," Stacia commented.
The new Delta Gamma house
located on the corner of Columbia and Pennsylvania Ave. is Just
behind the Columbia Terrace address of sorority row.

Student Congress Figures Now Final
The figures from the Student Congress election are
now official.
Gene Sayre, chairman of the
elections committee, said that a
recount of the Arts and Sciences
representatives showed no change
In the outcome of any of the
races.
The A&S totals had been contested by John Cole and Bert
King who ran on the COUP ticket for representative. They had
claimed that
had
not been taken into account in
the voles originally.
tabulating
They felt that some of the voters
may have voted for more than
18 allowed on the A&S ballot.
Gilbert Adams who operated
the IBM machine counting the

votes, said that over balloting
had occurred on 15 ballots. He
said that on recount they found
that four ballots had not been
counted. However, none of these
factors changed the outcome of
the election in Arts and Sciences.
A total of 2,450 votes were cast
in the election. Some 26 of these
were thrown out on election
night because they had been
voted improperly. A total of 72
voters polled their ballots without signing in at the polls. The
elections committee said this accounted for the discrepency be-tnumber of signed voters.

The 2,450 votes cast constitute
a record for any Student Congress election. The largest vote
prior to this years was 1,800 cast

in the fall of 1962 in a representatives' race.
In that 1962 campaign, the first
party slate was run since the
election frauds of 1959. In that
race, the Progressive Party placed
98 percent of its representatives
in the congress.
This year, three different slates
were run. The Student Party, led
by Chellgren, placed 77 percent
of its candidates in the congress.
COUP won nine representative
places and a ticket led by Jim
Pitts placed eight representatives
in the congress. Only one independent of the 119 candidates was
elected.
The new congress under its
four new officers will begin its
program for the year with a

meeting Nov. 12.

President-elePaul Chellgren
said the meeting will be held at
7 p.m. in the Student Center
Theatre. All of those elected as
conmembers of the
gress at the Oct. 24 election are
to be present.
The Student Party holds the
majority in the congress. Aside
from the four officers, SP has 28
of the congress members.
amendUnder constitutional
ments approved Oct. 17, the congress only has 50 voting members

Ho said that the bumps were
installed mainly for the protection of the children of those living in the project.
K. It. Farris, chief engineer of
MAO, said the bumps, (made of
asphalt), are about the same size
as those by Keeneland.
Richard Stevenson, senior journalism major and Shawneetown
resident, said the three new
bumps added recently are much
taller than the old ones or the
one by Keeneland. "They may be
for the protection of children, but
they are too high and are a traffic hazard."

Washington Seminar

One of the most rewarding programs started by Student Congress in
leccnt years has been the Washington
Seminar. Applications are now being
accepted for next summer's seminar,
end we urge interested students to

epply.
The past summer's program was
described in the first two issues of the
Kernel The program ranged from attendance at one of President Kennedy's news conferences to a two-hodiscussion with the Second
of the Russian Embassy. Such
programs give students an opportunity to talk with people who make the
riews, to learn about our government,
end at the same time work in a gov- ur

Sec-teta- ry

ernmental agency. Thus you are earning while expanding your knowledge
of current and political affairs.
To insure that qualified persons
represent the University, each applicant is screened by a panel composed
of two professors and a student who
has participated in the program.
After approval by this panel, the
student's application is sent to several government agencies in an effort
to secure summer employment for
the student. This work is coordinated with the UK Alumni Club in the
Nation's Capital.
So if you would like to work in
Washington this summer and participate is a program such as the one
outlined above now is the time to
apply. Deadline for applications is

College Students
Ptliserable
A large number of American college students are so miserable that
they are counting the days until graduation. Instead of getting pleasure and
satisfaction from their college years,
they are confused, frustrated, and
failure conscious.
An article in the Oct. 12 issue of
The Saturday Evening Font gave statistics on and reasons for some of
the problems of college students.
At the University of Pennsylvania
20 percent of the students require
service
help from the mental-healtduring their stay at college.
At Harvard 25 percent consult a
psychiatrist. A recent poll of 600 college psychiatrists revealed tliat about
35 percent of the students in their institutions seek psychiatric help, while
GO
percent need help.
Symptoms of emotional distress
seen in college students are: excessive drinking, rioting, cheating on
exams, sexual promiscuity, and
A recent study shows suicide
to be second only to accidents in the
cause of student deaths at Yale.
Some people blame our society for
the misery of some of our students.

Campus Parable

In a world where materialistic capitalism and materialistic Communism
vie, can we help it if there is a materialistic motive in our life? Actually
it has probably been in man all along.
Yet it seems that it has the power
within modern society to make each
of us seem very impoverished in spite
of our position as a "campus have" or
"
a "campus
No one really blames us for desiring the nice things in life which money
can buy. Not even the preacher with
his sermon against materialism really
blames us. It is not our fault, if our
college education is motivated by vocational preparation with few .or no
hours left for what philosophical educators might call true education.
Yet there remains the feelings of
spiritual poverty. Can we blame it all
on our parents and the resulting complexes which bother us? Look carefully for His the sin of parents, of
and of ourselves you do not seek
to know yourself or to grow in understanding of your egocentric movement. The impoverished feeling may
result from too much seeking after
"silver" and entertainment and too
little seeking after selfhood.

"My son, if you receive my words

your ear attentive to wisdom
and inclining your heart to
understanding; yes, if you cry out
for insight and raise your voice
for understanding,
if you seek it like silver

treasures; then you will understand
the fear of the Lord
and find the knowledge of God.
For the Lord gives wisdom;
from his mouth come knowledge
and understanding."

that neutralism

on a degree from a "good" school have
helped to increase pressure.
Sometimes the frustration is partly the result of parental insistence on
a certain college, particular field of
study, or grades beyond the ability
of a son or daughter.
Students generate a lot of their
own tensions. The reason for tension
in many cases seems to be immaturity. Students with this problem are
unwilling to assume responsibilities
and don't care what anyone else thinks
about their actions.
Choosing a career, overcoming
loneliness at large schools, and trying to participate in too many activities are often sources of distress.

King Solomon of the Old Testament was a man famous for successfully seeking riches, power, and the
intimate company of many women yet
also for feeling a great poverty of
spirit. His life experiences can be
valuable guides to our understanding
if we carefully ponder words such as
these which he wrote:

The highlight of the change in
our Russian attitude came last June
10, when, in a speech at American
University, Washington, D.C., Kenon
nedy called for serious
the whole subject of coexistence with
the Soviet Unoin. Despite ambivalences and contradictions in his outlooks (such as the inane fallout shelter
milprogram and the
itary budget), it is apparent that the
President is interested in a readjustment of our foreign policy in many
cases.
The nuclear test ban treaty and
pending wheat sale to Russia are examples of this willingness to achieve
limited solutions to complex problems, and of a willingness to cooperate with the Soviets in
areas.
Similarly, the Cold European policies of Truman, with troop and missile
bases throughout Europe and Asia,
may be coming in for review Operation "Rif Lift" is a clear indication
that the administration may be de- -

emphasizing foreign bases, a key area
of dispute in the Cold War.
The problem lies in the tendency
of American politicians to equate
negotiation with concession, and policy change with surrender. When the
President announced the close of Jupiter missile bases in Turkey and Italy,
he was immediately denounced for
"giving in" to Soviet demands, despite
the fact that such bases had been
made obsolete by the Polaris submarine.
