Actually "Pederalista" has been at
UK for almost 51 years. But the
cannon is much older than
that. The ancient war relic, bv

The stock of the cannon bears the
engraving "Barcelona (Spain., 29 de

top of the old war instrument are
the proud engravings, -- Pederalista."

The limestone blocks that support
the cannon bear the following inscription:

Duncan."

Reports reveal that the cannon was

Thursday.
In presenting the new regulations
to the assembly, Charles Palmer,
:ormcr chairman of tne Judiciary
Committee and newly elected presi- dent of SGA, pointed out that in
the past there have been no writ- ten rules to go by in enforcing the
parking rules.
New Rules Included
This new set of regulations contains some long, established rules
ft the University and some entirely
new regulations, he said.
Under the "commuters" definition
as outlined in the plan, all students
traveling from surrounding towns.
such as Nicholasville, Georgetown
Winchester and Versailles, would be
excluded from this category.
However. Palmer was quick to aaa

The new system of parking per- mits will not go into effect until
next fall. Under the proposed
system, it is hoped to provide more
permits for the available parking
spaces.
SGA members were told
that ninny persons who now have
permits do not use them daily, but
require them only a few days each

The Ruling Against Segregation
Poses A Promise And A Threat
Tin' furor uliidi lias arisen in certain areas of tho

x tli proinisini; and
tint it shows that we are takiim a firm stop toward
the doctrine of equality of men. It is threatening
in that it contains the elements which could easily

The threat is greater than tin promise its presence is forlxxhng ciiouuh to w arrant the utmost in
caution. First, we as a nation are now in the spotlight of the world. The United States lias leen the
constant target of streams of communistic propaganda concerning our treatment of Negroes.
propaganda has l
Much of this
justified. Only in the last lew ears have we finally
overcome the atrocious custom ol lynching. We
have remained one of the few national jxwers that
practice widespread prejudice. When a Negro is
elected to a city office, or to a government position,
we are astounded. How does the rest of the world
.feel about this situation?
Most of the world feels disgusted alxiut it. localise most of the world is not white. Asians and
Negroes by far outnnmlH'r the white races. And
every time one of our examples of prejudice is made
known, people all over the world shake their heads
and wonder if this is the nation that is supposed to

Prejudice certainly cannot lx eliminated by a ruling of any court, because prejudice is a primitive,
dismal, slimy disease that rots away petty minds for
generation after generation. Most prejudice stems

Need More Study
One nice thing alwut having a written set of
parking rules such as the one presented by SGA's
judiciary committee this week is that its easier
to bo confused. looking over the instructions and
regulations, one comes across the following item:
"Commuters shall lx defined as 'students who travel
daily (round-trip- )
to the University from outside a
radius.'
This means that students who commute from
places such as Wincheste r. Versailles. Georgetown,
or
are not eligible for a commuter's
parking permit. We may be wrong, but according
to our mathematics, a student would have to travel
away from the Unive rsity for 25 miles lx'fore reaching the "Commuter Curtain."
It is fair to presume that most UK commuters
come from locations within the prescribed radius.
The judiciary committee should make a thorough
study of the situation and make' any necessary
changes.

from a fear that the other man
might do better than we- do. Bluntly, we who practice prejudice prove ourselves to be- socialized apes
living in a world of nuclear fission a strange world
w here men dream of space travel but elon t want
their children to go to sc1kh1 with egrtes "be'cause
Negroe-are' infe'rior." This, in spite of all scientific
c idence, religion, morals, and logic to the contrary!
If we f.iil ntw, if we cannot find the strength to
pull together in ertler to rectify a horrible injustice
to t)nr fellow men. then we have failed in every
sense of the word as men, as a nation, and as
human beings.
