College Humor Magazine
To Go On Sale Today

Collegiate humor returns to campus today for
the first time In almost twenty years in the form of
a student-edite- d
magazine bearing the name Moot.
Jack Duarte, editor of the publication said he
thought Moot would be well received by students.
"First, we had some talented people writing for

The first issue of Moot, a humor magazine published by University
students, will go on sale today. This is the first magazine of
its type to appear at the University since the early forties.
The publication contains 21 pages and Is scheduled to be a
monthly magazine.

us. Second, everybody is Interested in good humor.
College humor usually sets the trends. We published Moot for the sole purpose of entertainment."
The journalism major had the Idea for the
magazine before he transferred to UK this year.
He said he was surprised when he found out that
there was no type of student magazine on campus.
"I kept asking around until I found people that
were interested in starting a magazine such as
Moot," Duarte said.
The actual work on Moot began about mid-- .
November." We hope that from now on the
organizing of each edition will be easier. With
this one, everytime we tried to put it together
we had to leave for a vacation," he grinned.
"If we had stayed in school for a normal period
of time, we could have gotten the magazine out
sooner."
The title, Moot, was the result of a night of

brainstorming in Duarte's room in the Sigma Chi
house. This room serves as headquarters for the
magazine.
"Really we just stumbled onto the name. Soma
of us were tossing ideas around for a name. I
wanted Hoot. Accidentally somebody made a wisecrack and said Moot. Wo liked it. so Moot It was."
The editor said the articles were fresh and well
written. "As far as talent goes, there aren't many
college magazines that ctyi top us. Charlie Williams, a compositor, was responsible more than
anyone for helping us with layout. He helped us
polish it and make it look professional."
Moot's cover boasts an armored knight In
the right-han- d
corner. The knight represents
the Renaissance.
The Wildcat, a similar magazine, was banned
here by University officials in the early forties.
The Moot taff eventually wants the magazine
to expand to include other colleges. It is encouraging students at other colleges as well as at
UK to write for the magazine.
s
Three thousand copies of Moot went on sala
today. Duarte said, he is confident that the circu-- "
lation will increase for the March 10 edition.

Patriotism Isn't Blind
editor
Virginia Olsen,
of the student newspaper at Redding,
Conn., is in trouble because of an editorial entitled "A Higher Loyalty"
which declared that to be a patriotic
American "is to be blindly stupid."
to one's country, she
Patriotism
argued, should be replaced by a "loyalty to the world."
The Legion Post at Easton understandably has protested. The school
board has expressed "concern." The
town Republican committee said the
editorial was "in bad taste."
We hope that they will not be too
hard on Virginia. In reaching out for
a great truth the brotherhood of all
mankind she failed to notice an
equally important truth at her elbow.
She is suffering from a youthful
afflliction known as hypermetropic
which means she cannot see the
trees for the woods.
If we could sit down and chat w ith
Virginia, it would be our purpose to
show her that one cannot be "loyal to
the world" without being loyal to
one's own country. One cannot be a
good neighbor to the underprivileged
people of what we used to call "darkest Africa" without being kindly disposed to Mr. and Mrs. Jones down
the block.
The concept of brotherhood is the
most elevating idea that ever dawned

on man. However infrequently it is
realized in our daily conduct, it is,
even as an ideal, sufficient to raise us
a notch or two above our animal
friends.
But the only way Virginia or we
or the President of the United States
can give body to this ideal is by working patriotically within the framework of our own nation.
There may be conflicts of interest
between governments, but there are
not, in our opinion, basic conflicts of
interest between the peoples of the
world. Their ultimate desire is for the
preservation of peace and the spread
of the abundant life to all.
Because we love our country, and
because we have faith in its basic
goodness, we shall strive to have, our
government make its proper contribution to this worthy objective.
Patriotism is too seldom discussed
either in editorials or from the pulpit.
Maybe we are afraid of sounding
corny. Or maybe, being fearful we
will say nothing new on the subject,
we say nothing. Perhaps Virginia has
done us a good turn in compelling us
to think about this love we bear for
our country but which we seldom put
in words. The Waiihensbuhc (N. Y.)
News.

To The Editor:
To the members of Kappa Sigma
fraternity:
I realize that this is a time of
mourning and sadness at your house
over the death of your beloved dog
Cossa. I, even as a dog lover, however, cannot share your sorrow. Not
knowing the reason or reasons as to
why your dog- passed way, but merely judging by what I read in the
Kernel this is written strictly as my
opinion.
I own a pedigreed Boxer that I
love very dearly and am extremely
proud of. She is seven years old and
in excellent health. She is as playful
now as she was when she was two
years old. I attribute her good health
to the diet which she has been fed
throughout her seven years. Her
meals have consisted of a variety of
prepared foods, not merely commercial dog food, let alone gii and pizza.
Unlike humans who have an opportunity to choose what they eat
(and some not very wisely) a dog
must eat whatever his master provides for him. I hardly think that
and pizza constitute a balanced diet.
Oh, I know you didn't feed it to him
all the time. Not that I have anything against whiskey, gin, or beer,

but certainly these were not intended
for our dogs. They are bad enough
for us.
I realize that many of you may
have derived a great deal of pleasure
from watching your dog consume
"unusual food not commonly consumed by dogs." How many of you,
I wonder, ever stopped to think what
this might have been doing to him?
Your dog Cossa was dependent on
you and I feel that you have ik one

to blame but yourselves for his death.
Take better care of your next mascct.

U.N. Delinquent List

If the United Nations was a club
with a bulletin board on which the
names of delinquent dues payers were
posted, most of the members would
be posted now.
Or, if the United Nations had the

least poll tax paying before he could
get a ballot, there would be very few
United Nations voters. As a matter of
fact there is a United Nations procedure which cuts off the vote after

Seniors In Demand

Many Firms Raise College Hiring Quotas

(Editor's Note: lly special permission
from the Wall Street Journal, the
Kernel will present in two parts an
article which appeared in the Journal
on Jan. 3. We feel the predictions
made in the story are worthy of notation by UK's graduating seniors.)
By AXEL KRAUSE
Wall Street Journal Staff Reporter
CHICAGO
Steadily improving
business is brightening job prospects
for college seniors.
A Wall Street Journal survey of
more than two dozen corporators,
representing a variety of industries,
shows that 8.5 percent of these companies intend to hire more graduates
next spring than they did at the end
of the
academic year. These
concerns, now touching up their plans
for the heavy February-Apri- l
recruiting periods, on the average will hire
about 25 percent more graduates than
a year earlier, during the business
downturn.
,
Studies by such major universities
as Northwestern and Michigan State
similarly indicate an acceleration in
the recruiting efforts of many businesses.
Talks with college placement officials around the country show they
expect competition among companies
to be much tougher in 1962. Interviews already scheduled for spring by
businesses reflect considerably more
1960-196-

1

demand than in 1961, they say. But
companies will be bidding for approximately the same number of graduates as has been available in each
of the past few years. The number
of graduates in accounting and electrical engineering has even diminished a bit, placement men state.
Higher Salaries In Prospect
To help fill their needs, many corporations plan to offer higher salaries.
Some say they are prepared to pay
as much as 15 percent more than last
spring; on the average, however,
starting pay will be about 3 percent
higher than in 1961, according to
Northwestern University's survey.
College recruiting trends generally parallel trends in the economy
and the current academic year is no
exception. Wendell Burton, employment manager for Minnesota Mining
&
Manufacturing Co., puts it this
way: "Our manpower forecasts are
closely tied to our sales forecasts. In
anticipation of improved sales and
earnings in 1962, we've increased our
recruiting quotas about 50 percent."
Minnesota Mining will try to hire
alxnit 225 graduates in the spring, including engineers, chemists and graduates in the liberal arts and business
administration.
In some cases, specific expansion
hirprograms account for stepped-uing plans. For instance, Armour &
p

Co.'s Grocery Products division expects to introduce several new soap
and canned meat products this year.
Armour also is searching for companies to acquire. "The result is we're
hungry for talent and would love to
find and hire 50 qualified men to join
our sales organization," says R. T.
Boyers, national sales manager of the
division. Last spring the Armour division sought 15 college graduates and
ended up hiring nine.
Defense Contractors' Needs
Nowhere is the desire for graduates greater than among government defense contractors, particularly
in the aircraft and electronics industries. Many of these companies have
record order backlogs as a result of
sharply higher federal defense spending.
Motorola, Inc., a Chicago-baseelectronics concern, is seeking between 100 and 125 electrical engineers from 1962 classes, up from 55
in 1961. "The increased need stems
largely from the company's expectations that sales will be a record next
year," declares Larry Wrenn, Motorola's director of personnel. Mr. Wrenn
adds that "our military business, now
at about 15 percent of total volume,
could climb to about 20 percent."
Motorola's backlog of military business is the largest since the Korean
war.
d

Many defense contractors fear the
competition among them for graduates will be so tough they won't be
able to fill their needs. Mr. Wrenn, for
example, thinks Motorola might have
to settle for SO graduates. He and
others in the electronics business voice
concern over the increasing shortage
of electrical engineers with bachelor
of science degrees. Many of these
engineers are now seeking advance
degrees at graduate schools or, if they
take jobs, are winding up in the aircraft industry.
"These aircraft companies - with
their big defense contracts usually
have more money to spend and often
offer more glamorous projects than
we can," complains one executive of a
major electronics concern.
"So Many Opportunities"
Some of the big aircraft companies
also are looking for more graduates
than they wanted a year ago. Hughes
Aircraft Co., Culver City, Calif., says
it is seeking 500 engineers,
times the number hired in 1961.
A Hughes spokesman explains that
the increase stems from "more defense business, particularly in space
projects." John A. Bigelosv, personnel
manager of Hughes' Aerospace group,
says, "We have never had so many
to offer the college
opportunities
