This is the definition under which | will operate for this essay. The most common impressions that | have heard during my years at this uni- versity are: -An incredibly large high school with teachers masquerading as professors. -A conglomerate of different schools and programs, all of which are underfunded, -Mickey Mouse's Kingdom. -A growing urban university with lots of potential, little of which has been realized. -A poor excuse for an institution of higher learning with some programs that rate as good. -An institution plagued by budgetary insufficiencies and poor leadership that pushed the quality down. -A pretty good school, but things could be better. My impression, though not all that original, is all of the above. To say this is not as ridiculous as it would seem. U of L itself is a mishmash, or to use the academic jargon, a compen- dium of multi-varied composition. There is no one identity associated with the univer- sity, its administrators, faculty, programs, students, and role in the community. U of L has developed rather strangely through the years. Starting the 1960's as a financially solvent municipal university that catered to the elite of the Jefferson County population, it rapidly went to the verge of bankruptcy and entered the state system of higher education. At that point the so-called walls of the university began to break down, and people of every socio-economic background began enroll- ing at U of L. _ cleat Dreikete, gs —, This called for new programs and rapid growth, all with very little planning. This rather simplistic view of the uni- versity's history led to the point where al- most everyone was unhappy with some- thing, and it led to the variety of impres- sions which began this article. And it's not necessarily bad. A major university shouldn't provide just one face to present to the students and the com- munity. It should be able to provide some- thing for every one - not cater to a certain elite. U of L does try to provide something for everybody. But there's one flaw--, very little of what it provides is very good. Having said my piece about vague U of L impressions, | will devote the rest of my attention to specific groups or depart- ments all of which are selected bya thor- oughly irrational process, INTRAMURALS --What can one say about Ellis Mendelson that hasn't already been said? THE CAMPUS STORE -- a big rip- off directed by incompetents. COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES -- the largest school in the university, it promises to be the most progressive mon- ument to higher education that U of L might erect. And much of this is because of the dynamic leadership of Dean A. J. Slavin. The college, at this writing, is beginning a major overhaul which may be one of the best moves in its history. But progress is hampered by a generation of reactionary facul ty members that remain here through the blessed institution of tenure. DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY -- a bunch of juvenile hotrodders. 10 STUDENT GOVERNMENT -- at the beginning of this year, student government had all the tools to show the true potential that students under their own direction can have. But the resignation of the SGA president and academic vice-president dealt it two blows from which it could not recover. The student council individually made some progress, but the cause of university-wide student government was set back. FOOD SERVICES-- gastric heartburn, but brighter days lie just around the cor- ner since the university took over the operation. The SUB, for all of its failings, is beginning to improve. But - it could hardly get much worse. JAMES G. MILLER-- the president of U of L is honestly making proaress, though occasionaly mistakes (NCAA, U of L, UL) hurt his image. He was a mis- understood man faced with an almost bank- rupt university. He had to make a lot of changes and like anybody making changes, was faced with a backlash from the old guard entrenched in the good old days. UNION FOR STUDENT ACTIVITIES -- one helluva lot of progress has been made in student entertainment. The cal- endar for events was never better, and the people at USA deserve most of the credit. U OF L STUDENTS--again, there is no one face for a body this large. But we do have the problem of letting a very few students take care of all our needs. We need to take more of the responsibility for our college years. But no use crying over spilled milk. 11 13 15 PLE Hae bbb dat ] a 0 ae oe py Aha ade + ? : wr ,: Ad Building: 50 Years The Administration Building has been standing on Belknap Campus for nearly fif- ty years. It was constructed by Allied Architects in 1927, ata total cost of $300,000, shortly after U of L purchased the campus through a grant from the Belk- nap Family. The adopted style of architecture, Collegiate Georgian was a style popular on many campuses of the period. The building's structure and dome were model- ed after the library at the University of Vir- ginia, designed by Thomas Jefferson. The product, a fireproof structure with exter- ior walls of cherry-red brick, trimmed in white stone,'' was opened and dedicated in 1927. Before renovation of the Administration Building, a replica of Michelangelo's David stood in the cen- ter of the second floor. When the observation hole was reopened, David was moved into temporary storage, and, as of September, had not reappeared on Belknap Campus. Until recently, the Administration Building housed the administration offices and academic services, which include the admissions, bursars, and registrar's of- fices. The University Library was also housed in the Administration Building until 1957, when it was moved to its present location. U of L's one student take-over took over the Administration Building in April of 1969. The Black Student Union, de- manding improved recruitment procedures for black students, occupied the building for exactly three hours and fifteen minutes. President Woodrow Strickler finally per- suaded the students to leave, promising that no arrests would be made if no more take-overs were staged. The truce ended three days later, when members of Black Student Union attempted to take over the Arts and Science Dean's office. They were promptly arrested. President Miller, who came to U of L in 1973, initiated a complete renovation of the Administration Building. Academic Ser- vices was permanently moved out in an ef- fort to centralize student services, and other offices were moved temporarily to Gardiner Hall. The president's offices oc- cupied the basement of the law school, as the first stage of renovation was begun, In 1974 workmen began tearing out layers of wood and plaster, and partitions of brick and wood constructed over the years, eventually restoring the building to its original floor plan. The building was converted to central air-conditioning and the interior complete- ly repainted. Offices were redesigned, with attention to maximum space utilization, and new furniture ordered for the entire building. By the spring of 1975, after nearly eighteen months of work, the building was reopened. Renovation had cost U of L $1.1 million, nearly four times the original con- struction costs in 1927, 19 20 ‘ Sse Dae ae r al ee , A awa ed 2 ‘ Workmen spent nearly one and one half years on the renovation of the administration building. The re- sult is a combination of the old and the new. The original floor plan of the building has been restored, all offices have been renovated and enlarged, and all main administrative offices are now centralized in the administration building. From the exterior the building remains unchanged from the original struc- ture, built in 1927. Gardencourt: The Norton Bequest by Debby Graves _— = = When the Norton sisters, Minifred, Lucia and Martha, built Gardencourt in 1906, they probably didn't realize that it would one day become a Louisville showplace. Nor could they foresee that within forty years it would become a branch campus of the University of Louis- ville. The Nortons were merely building in the Norton family tradition. Minnie, Lucie and Mattie were re- spectively fifty-three, forty-seven, and forty-three when they moved into the three- story, twenty-room mansion overlooking Cherokee Park. Minnie was the widow of William Caldwell, Jr. , and Lucie and Mattie never married. Minnie was to en- joy the formal gardens, mahogany furni- ture, and imported carpeting and drapes of Gardencourt for only five years before her death in 1911. When their father, George Washington Norton, brought his family to Louisville in 1867, he established a home on Broad- way (Broadway then being the ultimate in residential neighborhoods , as one Norton biography explains) near the pre- sent site of the Heyburn Building. There he and his wife Martha raised a family of seven children--five daughters and two sons. George W. Norton was the eldest son of William Norton, a Pennsylvanian who settled in Russelville, Kentucky around 1804. Soon after his arrival the thirty- two-year-old Norton married sixteen-year- old Mary Hise, the daughter of fellow Pennsylvanian settlers. Norton founded the family fortune through his blacksmith and hardware busi- ness. He smelted nails, his chief money- maker, from iron bars shipped down the Ohio River to Shawneetown, Illinois, and brought overland by wagon to Russelville. Norton's nails, rakes, hoes, chains, and other implements were in great demand by the pioneers, and his trade quickly bur- geoned into a prosperous business. George inherited his father's business sense. At fourteen George had finished his education and was working as a store clerk. Four years later he had invested his entire $1,000 savings in stock to open a store of his own. In 1850 George became president of the Southern Bank of Kentucky, a state a ed +. ot paella Ms RS. bank authorized by the legislature in the 1840's. After thirteen years, however, the legislature voted to liquidate the state bank system. George Norton moved to Louisville soon afterward and opened a private bank- ing house with his brother William F. Norton. The Norton's closed the bank in 1885, partly because of George's failing health, and in 1889 George died at the age of seventy-four, After his death the three sisters de- cided to build a new home and hired arch- itects Collidge and Shattuck of Cleavand. The style of Gardencourt, often identified as Georgian, is more correctly identified as Beaux-Arts with strong Georgian in- fluence evident in the structu re. Con- struction was begun in 1905 and com- pleted in 1906. Six massive columns support the man- sion from the front. Inside, a marble- floored hallway, lined with sculpture and gilt mirrors, is dominated by the massive carved staircase. A glass-enclosed sun- porch opens onto the formal gardens, and a view of the park is possible from all sides of the estate's hilltop site. When the sisters decided to build in Cherokee Park, then in the infant stages of residential development, they were con- cerned about moving that distance from the center of town. After some deliberation the sisters decided to purchase an auto- mobile - then newly in vogue in Louis- ville - and the carriage house on the estate was expanded to accomodate the vehicle. After Minnie's death in 1911, Lucie and Mattie continued to live at Garden- court, remaining active in social and philanthropic work. Lucie was a sponsor of the Baptist Orphans Home and the Children's Free Hospital. Mattie served as chairman of the Frontier Nursing As- sociation, plus being a charter member of the Louisville Young Women's Christian Association (YWCA). In 1924, Mattie, Lucy, and their brother, George Norton, Jr. , pledged $100,000 to the Southern Baptist Sem- inary for its move from Fifth and Broadway to its present location on Lexington Road. The Norton family had been active in the Baptist Church since William Norton, ori- ginally a Quaker, joined the Russelville Baptist Church. The Norton family con- tinued as benefactors to the seminary and eventually set up a scholarship fund. On Christmas Day, 1937, Lucie Norton died. Mattie Norton, the only sur- viving child of George Norton, outlived her by nine years, dying in 1946 at the age of eighty-three. One of the wealthiest women in Louisville, she lett an estate of nearly $1.5 million in real estate, invest- ments, cash, and jewels. Her will, how- ever, made no disposition of the Garden- court Estate. Because of Mattie's interest in music and in the University of Louisville, Mat- tie's benificiaries presented U of L with the estate to be used for the School of Music. At that time the land was valued at $3,000 per acre, and the house at $125,000 - a total value of $167,000. U of L music students and faculty were delighted to move from the school's former location in the Reynold's Building at Third and Eastern Parkway. Garden- court proved to be an excellent site for the school, and very little remodeling was needed to convert the rooms into class- rooms and studios. The U of L School of Music remained at Gardencourt for twenty-three years, until it moved to its present location at Shelby Campus in 1969 Offices of the U of L Urban Studies Center, the Demographic Center, and the Metroversity now occupy the second and third floors of Gardencourt. A dance studio at the rear ot the home houses the music school's preparatory dance depart- ment. And the carriage house, once built for the Norton carriages and automobile, is now occupied by the Kentucky Opera Association. The chauffer's apartments upstairs have been converted into studios for U of L artist-in-residence Lee Luvisi. The mansion's first floor remains largely unchanged, retaining many of the original paintings, furnishings, and much of the decor. Now seventy years old, Gardencourt stands in isolated beauty; a memorial to one of Louisville's leading families and to an era of Kentucky history.

Going to movies to ae the cage of the family's St. Louis Bice ye Belknap Theatre opened the 1975-76 season with Tennessee Williams' Glass Menagerie. The production, with a cast of four students, was directed by Dr. Dan Scuro. One faculty member from the English Department described the play as brilli- antly realized and extensivly praised Menagerie in a letter to the CARDINAL, crediting Scuro with excellent casting and direction.

Gibson tells this story about two brothers, one an optimist and one a pes- simist. Come Christmas the pessimest looks under the tree and finds a shiny new bicycle. He immediately finds fault with it. The optimist, on the other hand spots only a box filled with . . . horse manure. Yippee! he shouts. I'm gonna have me a great time soon as | find that pony.’ If any parallel can be drawn between the above story and Vince Gibson, it is this: while Gibson didn't have it as bad as the boy with the filled box when he took the head football coaching job in Decem- ber 1974, he didn't have a brand new bike either. The facilities were some of the worst in the nation when | came in, he said last summer . We want football to be a point of pride for the community. So | went out and raised the money to get new locker rooms. Now that we've got the facilities, and we've got a big-time schedule, all we need is the players to have a real good program. Vince Gibson, then, is looking for the pony. We're speaking of the University of Louisville, where football has traditionally been something that takes up space between basketball seasons. Louisville football has been known in the past for two things - Lee Corso and Johnny Unitas. But where football might have been ignored in the past, Gibson has the solid support of the university administration and atheletic di- rector Dave Hart. We don't think it's realistic to want a football program that's ranked in the top five, says Hart. But we do feel that we can win consistently and be rated in the top twenty, like Miami of Ohio or Houston. And | think that Vince is the man that can do it for us, Gibson said that when he took the Louisville job it was a diamond in the rough. A lot of people think I'm crazy for coming here. But people said | was crazy for going to Kansas State, and by the time | left we had beaten every team in the Big Eight at least once. A native of Birmingham, Alabama Gib- son played his college football at Florida State, where he was a fraternity brother of former U of L Coach Corso. After jobs at a high school and small college, he went to Tennessee as an assistant coach. From there he went to Kansas State, a school that hadn't won a game in two seasons before his arrival. Gibson's first K-State team won just one game, but in the next seven seasons they won 32, includ- ing back-to-back victories over Oklahoma. Gibson's rebuilding job earned him Coach of the Year honors in 1970 from the New York Daily News. But the problem of competing in the nation's toughest foot- ball conference - check the wire service ratings - took its toll. And Gibson resigned following the 1974 season. It's too difficult to compete against the Oklahomas and the Nebraskas year in and year out, he explained. | was beating on those guys with a short stick. The first thing | asked Dave when we dis- cussed this job was whether Nebraska or Oklahoma were on the schedule. He said ue weren't. | said, Good, I'll take the jo i But while the Sooners or the Huskers weren't on the 1975 schedule the Cardi- nals had their hands full with the Cincin- nattis, the Drakes and the Witchita States. Lack of depth, or more likely - lack of experience-gave the Cardinals their worst record in ten years. | knew it was gonna be tough to win here,'' said Gibson after his team's eighth loss, it's just turned out to bea little tougher than | expected. Gibson, though, sees a bright future. We have lots of young kids coming back next year. If nothing else, | guess this year has been good because we've gotten to play a lot of our young football players and gotten them some experience. And the attitude is super. I've never seen a team that's losing have as great an attitude. They're really trying to be a good football team. If we can get some good junior col- lege lineman in next year, we'll be all right. We've already got 13 transfers who'll be ready to play the spring. So Gibson still hasn't found his pony. But he's not discouraged. We've gotten tremendous support from the faculty and administration, he said. And the community has been great, too. They want us to have a good football team. And we're gonna give it to them. You can write it down. We're gonna win in Louis- ville. 60 67 ey ae - aT? AS v4 ie Cs ‘¥ — “. 8 no . oe - “SS ONETA 4 -s = . ine + _ 2° t B Queen ‘Queen.

Last April, when | applied for a Work-Scholarship to France, | was eventually summoned to the office of Dr. George Brodschi, head of the International Center. Flipping through my file, Brodschi ask- ed: Well, Miss Graves, so you want to go to France? Uh, well, yes - very much. Very well, you will go. Can you have for me by tomorrow a check for $440, please? Work-Scholarship is something of a misnomer for my particular program, offered through the French Department. Each sum- mer about seven students are sent to Mont- pellier, France for seven weeks. The stu- dent must finance passage on a charter flight ($440) and living expenses. Alto- gether the trip cost me about $1,200, in- cluding travel costs in Europe. The thrust of this program is to provide students with practical experience with the French language and culture. Students are found jobs in offices around the city of Montpellier for one month. This summer's jobs included bank- clerking, selling train tickets, selling cos- metics in the town's only department store, and working as a receptionist in a hospital. Students are scheduled for forty hours per week, and earn about 1,200 francs (roughly $300) at the end of four weeks. Employers were usually easy-going, and days off weren't hard to come by. Our charter flight, which left New York at midnight, carrying 350 students - most- ly highly excited Americans and a few bored French students going home - landed in Paris at 7:00 a.m. We were all wildly delerious to see the city, but by the time we checked into a youth hostel and aclimated ourselves, jet- lag had struck, and most of our group was asleep in bed by 6:00 p.m. Everyone that is, except me - being too excited to sleep, | went out for a walk, got lost, and spent Oe next two hours getting back to the hos- tel. Paris has a presence so heady that anyone who has felt it could be transported U of L Plan there in his sleep , states LET'S GO EUROPE, the popular student travel guide. And, to any one having experienced the city, it is an extremely accurate observation. We spent one blurred day in the city, seeing Notre Dame, the Seine, and the Champs d'Elysee, where Americans recognize the golden arches of a McDonald's hamburger stand. From Paris, in north-central France we traveled by train to Montpellier, on the southern coast. We took a midnight train, and as the novelty of being in a foreign country is slow to wear off, spent most of the night pressed against the windows, watching French farms and landscape slide past. Montpellier, on the Mediteranean Coast, has an extremely dry, almost tropi- cally hot climate. The dorms and curving sidewalks in the housing complex where we stayed were screened by huge bushes, tow- ering ferns, and exotic scarlet and orange flowers. Private gardens in the area grew orange, lemon, and apricot trees. The days were hot, the nights cool, and it NEVER rained. by Debby Graves Montpellier is a crowded, busy city. There are apartment complexes, suburbs, and a few supermarkets. Montpellier has an efficient bus system and heavy traffic. But the city also has stone, medieval cathedrals, cobblestone streets winding through the tiny shops, and open-air cafes on every corner. And, there are miles of beaches thirty minutes out of the city. Everybody in the area goes to the beach. On week-ends all of the students would pack their tiny cars with blankets, beach umbrellas and picnic lunches and join the streams of traffic headed toward the ocean. The Mediteranean sun is hot and fierce, and American girls who would try sunbathing topless, which is comme il faut on the beaches , usually came back severly burned. By the end of our first working week, almost all of us agreed that our positions were more tolerated than appreciated by our employers. At one point we even devel- oped the theory that our employers had owed political debts to the Montpellier's mayor, our sponsor in Montpellier. Most of us passed the month reading, writing letters home, and chatting with co- workers, who found us very entertaining. And occasionally they would find work for us, At the end of one month, however, we had all noticed a tremendous improvement in both our speaking and listening ability. By the time our jobs expired, we were ready to take our earnings and travel in the two remaining weeks. A friend and | decided to head for Ve- nice, Italy, and make further plans from there. We did all our traveling by train - in Europe the trains are cheap, efficient (except in Italy) and usually fun. The sec- ond-class cars were full of back-packing students, Eurailing it through Europe, with a rail pass that costs about $180 for two months. We could almost always find Eng- lish-speaking students, willing to talk and trade books (books in English were at a premium among the students) . Venice was everything we had expected - canals, old mansions on the water, and gondolas. What we hadn't expected were the tourists packed into the streets, hotels, and restaurants. After only a few days, the heat and crowds drove us toward Switzer- land. In Switzerland we discovered, among other things, civilization. The cool climate and good-natured Swiss were a tremendous relief, after Italian heat and Latin tempera- ment. And the cheeses, fruits, and Swiss yogurt were delicious after the starchy Italian diet. We spent several days in the Alps, riding the tiny trains up snowy mountains, and hiking down in to green Alpine valleys. If we'd eaten our weight in bread in France, we were eating our weight in chocolate in Switzerland. From Interlachen, we caught a night train to Paris, sharing a sleeping compart- ment with two elderly ladies as Alabama. By now we had begun to develop an earn- est desire to be on our way home, In Paris we found the rest of the Ameri- can group (including fifty high school stu- dents from Louisville on a separate pro- gram.) They were all quartered at a two-star hotel (French hotels are rated one, two, and three star) reserved by the Internation- 76 al Center. The burlap wallpaper stapled to the wall and the mattresses on the floor didn't matter. All we wanted was some sleep before our plane left in the morning. About 400 students were waiting for the flight, which was delayed about four hours to replace a part. When departure was finally announced the airport terminal ex- ploded in cheers, Almost everyone we talk- to agreed that they were ready to go home.

First-year student Judy Cooke isn't quite sure why she entered the U of L Medical School, except that she wanted to go back to school. Cooke, a graduate of Atherton High School, earned a B.A. and Masters in English from U of L, taught English for one year, and worked for sever- al advertising agencies before she made the decision. | had to go back to school for my basic sciences, says Cooke.

You have to cram it in - this year we've learned over two thousand words. Sometimes it seems like you're forgetting as fast as you learn. The pressures of med school, however, are not apparent as Cooke sits on the floor of her apartment near Cherokee Park dis- cussing her impressions of her first semes- ter. 79 80 First year students spend mornings in classes, and afternoons in lectures and labs, leaving no free time during the day. Cooke arrives at the Health Sciences Cen- ter each day at 9:00 a.m. and by 5:00 p.m. is ready to head for home. After dinner she tries to spend from seven to eleven studying. Cooke spends almost each week-night at home with her three cats Veronica, Prudence, and Kait- lin ( Kaitlin was Dylan Thomas' wife's name, explains Cooke) studying for the following day's classes. Though Cooke says that she never seems to get caught up she has to have a break now and then. I'd be lying if | said | never turned on the T.V. or went out to see a friend. Sometimes it comes down to making a few points higher on a test, or keeping your sanity . Most freshman med students will agree the course work is heavy and that social life is bound to suffer. But students enjoy the classes and the subject matter, and have found getting in to be worth it. Out of 1,300 applications last fall 135 - the standard class size at med school - were admitted to the freshman class. About 350 students pass the first screening and are called in for interviews. Two separate interviews are held; one with Dr. James Moore, associate dean in charge of admissions, and one with a member of the admissions committee. The student is rated in five categories by the interviewer; including personality, dedication to work and study, extra-curri- cular activities, personal interests, anda subjective judgement of the applicant's potential. A point-system is used to rate the applicants brought before the entire admissions commitee. From this group 135 students are selected for the freshman class. Freshman courses first semester include cell biology, gross anatomy, histology, neuro-anatomy, neuro-physiology, and embryology. All of the courses except cell biology come with required labs. 81 De ne ee ee es eee ee 7 The tests are really something, say Cooke. They often combine courses. Our last test combined gross anatomy and em- bryology. It's a combination lab and writ- ten exam, too - the whole thing lasted four hours. Cooke recalls that when the first test lasted four hour it was unbelievable. They ring these little bells . . . In the labs you have a minute and fifteen seconds to identify the structure. If you know it, it takes forever for the bell to ring. If you don't, it rings right away . What I've heard, she says, Is that the first semester's the very worst, the second's a little better, and the second year's much better. For Cooke, her first semester as a med student has been an experience. Most of the people here are from the tops of their classes, she says. Here I'm happy to finish in the middle. 83 Life as a music student is hard work , tion to averaging 4 hours of daily practice. according to violinist Karen Lowry.

' + + SRG 8 The Cardinal: Pressing On In 1969, Cardinal editor Nick DeMar- tino astounded the university and the city by printing the word fuck in an April fool issue of the Cardinal. The word ran in a 36-point headline (for those of you that aren't familiar with type size, that means the word was in half-inch tall letters - too large for the scandalized administration to ignore). DeMartino was contrite, but his apol- ogy was tempered by an explanation that the article and its headline satirized per- sons who say the word, but cannot endure seeing it in print. Despite the apology, the late Presi- dent Woodrow M. Strickler suspended publication of the campus newspaper for two weeks (One of those was spring break, when the Cardinal normally would not have been printed). Many believed Strickler took that action reluctantly, and that the suspension was less a punishment than an attempt to appease alumni screaming for student blood. That wasn't the first time the Cardinal had embarrassed the admin- istration. It wasn't the first time that a Cardinal editor had become embroiled in a controversy; it wasn't the first time that the paper had been threatened with censor- ship, and it certainly wasn't the first time that an enraged student body had demand- ed censure of an unpopular editor. U of L's campus newspaper, first known as the Cardinal News, was born amid the controversy in 1926. George Colvin, a bold educational revisionist, was president. Like current President James G. Miller, his ability was over- shaowed by his autocratic nature, which was a burr beneath the faculty's scholastic saddle. During that first year, the paper was not a dedicated champion of progressive causes. Instead the editors roasted Colvin because he dared question the worthy in- stitution of tenure; and because he advo- cated smaller freshman classes at the ex- pense of graduate courses (professors pre- ferred lumping undergraduate courses to- gether so they could have more time to teach upper-level classes). Amid the resulting turmoil that would become known as the Revolution of 1926-27, the Cardinal News folded. The paper reappeared in 1928 as the U of L News (a name later to be changed to the Cardinal. The revolution had sapped its crusading spirit. The hottest item in the 1928 series detailed the fate of a fraternity pledge who was being pad- dled by an upperclassman in the bookstore (wooden paddles were at the height of their popularity). After a few strokes with the paddle, the freshman broke out in flames. The bookstore manager was ready to throw the pledge out of a nearby win- dow when he discovered the boy was carry- ing a box of strike-anywhere matches in his back pocket - the matches had ignited under the friction of the paddle. In the late 1920's, students numbered just over 1,200 and the paper wasn't going to take a chance on offending any of them. Editorials carped on the necessity for preparedness and peace among the Greeks. Capsule minutes of every campus club were printed, rotogravure aEhGHE were the rage, and the front page pictured candidates who were trying for the titles of handsomest and fairest . Contents were milktoast and cottage cheese pretty well into the late 1930's, when editorials discussed the new national progressive party platform, Even these editorials, ihodab., took a backseat to In- tramural Night and society notes that in- cluded an item about two coeds who “motored to Chicago to attend an opera. It wasn't until 1939 that the Cardi- nal exhibited some sense of true social awareness - or succumbed to snake - level radicalism, depending (continued on page 92) the louisville cardinal fou dawrile Beau wese . as university of louisville, louisville; kentucky 40208 roars - = march 28, 1969 Corso resigns after two months By BILL FOLD Cardinal Sporta Writer Beltsville, Md.—Lee Corso, newly ap- pointed head coach of the University of Louisville football team has presented President Woodrow Strickler with his resignation, Corso, who was chosen by the Board of Trustees to succeed Frank Camp, made the announcement from his home in Beltsville, Maryland According to informed sources, Corso's contract contained a release clause which would free him of his contract with the University at anytime within a ninety day period. The sources said that the clause was included because Corso’s appointment was announced late in the recruiting season and was not sure if he would be able to organize the program and recruit for the freshman team. Corso issued this statement; “Because of my late appointment as head football coach at the University of Louisville and the bad condition of the program in general, I find that it would be impossible for me to organize an ef- ficient program, so 1 am hereby breaking all ties with the University.” l considered the University of Louis- ville to be a place where I would initiate a winning football tradition, but after viewing the facilities, the personnel, and the financial situation, I find that I have no other alternative but to seek employ- ment elsewhere,” It had been reported earlier this week that Corso had shown some displeasure with the material and facilities that he was to have worked with, Earlier this week Corso met with Nor bert Elbert, UL Vice President of Finan- cial Affairs. In that meeting, Corso was reportedly given a salary of $25,000 and an operating budget of $1,500, 125 shares of stock in Saturday Evening Post, 62 books of TV stamps, 12 subway tokens, and a chance in the Trish Sweepstakes, Corso also met with the players last Dean Lawrence bans publishing “fuck” By HARDIN LONG Cardinal Sta Writer Dean of Students Dave Lawrence has banned the use of the word “fuck” in all University publications, it was revealed Monday. The censorship order was sent to all printers who do business with the Uni versity, as well as the UL-owned Print Shop The action was in response to a rising use of the word in campus publications, particularly The Cardinal, Lawrence said, “The majority of our students do not use this word, and they certainly shouldn't be exposed to any words that they haven't heretofore used, In fact, a large number of our boys told me that they had never seen it until they read it in The Cardinal. “It’s just not nice,” he said. There is absolutely no justification for using such language. If you want to describe the act, there are lots of euphemisms you can use, And you can use “f--- or “a four- letter obscenity” rather than the word itself, People still get the same idea, and it's much more decent. You certainly didn’t see any of this sort of ‘fucking’ going on during my col- lege days.” Lawrence said that he had been worried about the (‘fucks in The Cardinal ever since the first one last year, and had become more and more appalled as the word “crept into little articles here and there.” After the appearance of the Forge and the Cardinal review of Philip Roth's Portnoy’s Complaint two weeks ago, he sent out his memo, though he would not confront any editors, nor PIO Director David Baker, nor the Student Board of Publications Lawrence had come up against students on the “filth issue” before. Earlier this year he blocked Harpoon Editor Stan Ous- ley from printing a nude shot of John Lennon and Yoko Ono He also threatened A S Council mem- bers if they called a gripe session a “bitch- in” last year “It's like that bitch-in thing,” Lawrence eaid Wednesday to a reporter. I told you boys that such a word wasn’t so good Hell, you could use ‘shit-in' or ‘fuck-in' if you wanted.” Lawrence added, “That's not for publication.” President Woodrow Strickler, when asked to comment on the move, said, “Oh, now isn't that silly. Dave is just playing his little games again, Personally, I don't think anyone takes him very seriously, do you? I sure don't, Now if you want to use dirty words, I think it's kind of fun, don't you, Would you like to cuss at me? A major issue might be raised in re sponse to Lawrence's unilateral action The A S Student Council passed by a unanimous vote of 3-0 Councilman Mary Julia Eifier’s motion which read, “We hereby uphold the right of all campus publications to use ‘fuck’ or any other filthy and disgusting words. We resent Dean Lawrence's interference in Student Affairs. He should go back to what he usually does.” The Council also passed a motion which set up 4 committee to determine exactly what it is that Dean Lawrence usually does week. Since Corso had hoped to have a team that would stand up to the academic standards of the university, the players were given a battery of tests designed to measure intelligence, motivation, and learning potential, the results of which caused Corso to exhibit such emotional behavior as throwing himself on his desk, flailing with his arms and legs, and screaming monosyllabic words, Anglo- Saxon in origin, which describe yarious physical acts. Corso said that he doubted he would continue as a coach, due to the traumatic experience at UL and would return to Maryland where he would open a restau- rant specializing in Italian food and boiled walnettoes that Corso has handed in his resignation, the school must again go through the procesa of screening, inter- viewing, ond selecting a new head coach So now Of course, the first person on the list was former assistant coach Paulie Miller, sround whom grest support wan rallied Work in the initial competition. However, Miller said that he would not be available for the job, He suid that he is perfectly con- tent with his job as Commissioner of the Pop Warner Football League and further stated that the stab wounds in his back have not as yet fully healed. One person who has come forth to place his name on the list is Ellis Mendelsohn, Director of Men's Intramurals. Mendelsohn felt that his lengthy asso- ciation with the university, his connec- tions around the community, and his vast experience at organizing midgets’ volley- ball tournaments, and toe-twitching con- tests qualifies him for the position. Yesterday a rally was staged in front of the Administration Building in support of Mendelsohn for coach. However, no one attended except a lost gypsy caravan, a run-away Mister Softy truck, and a group of wandering members of the Itallan-Polish Student Union, look- ing for a basement so they could hold a mecting. —Photo by Fast Eddy Weston break-neck Your taxes at work ig progressing al a pace on this stretch of I-74 from Shipp Street south to the UL Administration Building.

UL gets federal grant to develop chemical The University of Louisville netted a unique $1.4 million applied-research and development grant last week, thanks to accurate angling by local financial wizards, The grant was announced lute Tuesday afternoon by UL Vice President of Fi- nancial Affairs Norbert Elbert. Also present at the disclosure were Dean Donn Smith, Dr. Alf Hister, Dr. Leon Vinson Drizzle, and representatives from the De- partments of Defense and Health, Educa- on, and Welfare. The research deals with a versatile chemical which has physiological effects on humans varying from tranquilization, heavy sedation, to death, depending upon concentration, Delivery is to be meteoro- logical The grant is unique, Elbert explained, because it taps the two federal agencies for funds to be given to three UL depart- ments: Med School ($69,000), Speed School ($69,000), and Arts and Sclences ($20,000), Dean Smith emphasized that the re- search is very positive in nature. “I have been informed that the proferred grant is in full accord with University policy on sponsored research programs. Lethal ap- plication of the chemical is decidedly sec- ondary. The prime use is to induce do- mestic tranquility into areas threatened by social disorder,” Dr, Hister of Speed School said that preliminary research indicates that the delivery method would be effective in all but the most arid regions, He said, “This means that meteorologists will finally be able to apply weather directly to man.” Dr. Drizzle will head up the A S Eng- lish Department team in writing manuals describing safe use of the chemical. His only comment was, “This is the largest grant the department has received since T joined the faculty.” Mr. Elbert explained that for the time being all research will be conducted in the individual departments. “By the end of the year we expect to have physical fucilities available, where these scholars can pursue this effort jointly,” he said on whose version you believe. That was the year that an editorial attacked federal Judge John Parker, calling hii “Yellow- Dog Parker. Parker upheld the legality of oppressive yellow-dog labor contracts but had Acer overruled by Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis, an outspoken defender of the laboring man's rights. After the Brandeis decision, Parker had accepted an invita- tion to speak at the law school in defense of his decision. The Cardinal pointed out the irony in inviting Yellow Dog Parker to a school whose chief benefactor was Brandeis. Less than a week after the editorial, a group of conservative law students, calling themselves the Campus Con- stitutional Convention, tried unsuccess- fully to censure the Cardinal editors. The Convention claimed the editorial was in bad taste and didn't re flect general student Opinion. Through much of the next 40 years disgruntled students would claim that the paper's editorial should reflect the view- point of the generally conservative student population. But this conservative majority continually failed to produce a single CARDINAL editor. For instance, in May 1940, when Hitler's web was expanding over Europe the Cardinal editorially defended a fresh- man who stood before a Pro-ally rally to Oppose sending troops to Europe. The Cardinal's stand might have been over- looked if the editorial had not gone on to brand the rally as a congregation of Anglo- French fifth columinists. ' (Back then the words fifth-columnist drew the same gut reactions that today accompany mention of Watergate, the FBI, and the CIA). By now the U of L presidency had de- scended on the shoulders of Raymond Kent, who ordered Cardinal publication be de- layed until trustees had read the editorial. The trustees allowed the paper to be dis- tributed, but they attached a note regrett- ing and repudicating the editorial. 92 The Cardinal escaped suspension that time, but by October 1940, the impending war caused the Student Board of Publica- tions to limit the paper's main editorials to campus events. The editors were denied the right to comment on the war, conscrip- tion (a euphimism for the world dratt') and civil liberties. In relation, the next Cardinal launched the Cardinal Campus Clean-Up Crusade. It demanded a flash- light for the campus janitor, dillpickles in bookstore sandwiches, and American Flags for every classroom and professor's office. For a little more than a month Cardinal editor Harry Cohen lived with the new rules. Then he wrote an editorial defend- ing eight theology students who refused to register for the draft. War fever was run- ning high and students howled for his re- moval. The student board did not fire him, but did issue a strict reprimand, effectively blunting the nib of Cohen's editorial pen. The war years saw the first female editors take over the paper. The women added two new positions: war editor and fashion editor. The one male editor who was elected was drafted in the middle of his term. There was little controversy until 1945, when law school Dean Absolom Russell denied the charge of censorship, while in the same breath refusing to allow publication of an issue that contained the resignation of Cardinal staff members. Russell was head of the Student Board of Publications, which had chosen a male editor over another male editor who had worked his way up through Cardinal ranks. The Cardinal staff was miffed and wanted to resign publicly. In the 1950's the Cardinal weakly raised its pen for civil rights. It suggested that U of L find a pool for black students who wanted to take swimming classes (it did not volunteer the use of the all-white university swimming pool). It also rapped the former Loophole Restaurant, which would serve blacks only if they ordered take-out. What this campus needs is another newspaper! me How many times have you heard some joker mouthing off about a monopolistic press? Well, wo think it's great! We can slander, libel, and distort to our hearts content and there's not one measley voice to contradict us. You may disagree, but to hell with you! After all, we are The Louisville Carnal Papers of the next fifteen years explain why the activists of the late '60's con- sidered the post-war generation a complete washout. Editorials that did not call for an enthusiastic Homecoming lobbied to abol- ish the campus ban on liquor. Photographs of Homecoming floats, Greek Rush, an club officers occupied the front page. Only the resignation of editor Larry Spence, who lambasted the powerful local Demo- cratic organization and received a repri- mand for his efforts, marred those inno- cent and complacent years. U of L almost missed the activist movement, too. In early 1968 the Board of Student Publications selected Nick DeMartino as editor; at the time he was firmly committed to the Greeks. But by the time he assumed the editorship in the fall of 1968 he had made an about-face. He was the first editor in years to concen- trate on local, state, and national news that affected the U of L students. He was the first editor to deny the Greeks mo- nopoly of the news column, and his edi- torials supported the new politics. Week after week, DeMartino was criticized by students who felt that campus news was being ignored, while the editor used the paper to spread leftist pro- paganda. For instance, editorials berated the United States for involvement in the Vietnam War; the draft and draft laws as unjust; they demanded that the cold war no longer be substituted for foreign policy, and they fingered the crumbling cities as America's number one domestic priority . Obviously subversive, according to the flag-waving campus coservatives. And they had their proof when the infamous ob- scenity broke on the front page of the April Fool's Edition. ‘ Anyone can print a newspaper We're living proof of that’’ 93 Getting Straight | 5 ee The Orthodontics Clinic, located on the the clinic fully-trained and qualified to prac- third floor of the Dental School Building, tice the art of orthodontics.

Each year, four graduates leave As in other programs within the state-sup- ported university, preference is given to applicants who are residents of Kentucky. Undergraduate orthodontics director Dr. Fred Marconi explains that ten of his most promising senior students participate in the clinic, screening patients, organizing clinic activity, and practicing preventive orthodontics. Marconi distinguishes between the three branches of orthodontics as follows: Preven- tive orthodontics indicates the intervention of the dentist to stop the development of an abnormality. Corrective orthodontics in- volves the use of bands to correct an already abnormal set of teeth. New patients are referred to the clinic by students, staff, faculty and previous patients. A candidate is screened first by undergraduate dental students, who perform case analysis and preliminary diagnosis. Then the candidate is screened each year, while only 60 comprehensive cases and 40 interceptive cases are treated. Preference is given to those cases which will provide the best teaching experience; according to Dr. A.R. Gernert, who was serving as act- ing Chairman of the Department of Ortho- dontics at the time this story was written, The next priority in selecting patients is that students of the School of Dentistry are to be treated. Going through treatment is a valuable experience to a future mem- ber of the dental profession. Next, con- sideration is given to members of the uni- versity faculty, staff and student body and their families. Thus, the clinic is making an effort to serve the university community as best it can. When a patient is selected for compre- hensive care, he should expect to visit the clinic perhaps once every two weeks for a period of two years. The cost to the patient will be $850, which is quite reasonable, according to Dr. Gernert. Patients who do not require a full set of bands can expect to be treated for less and with a smaller amount of attention, according to the com- plexity of the case. Anyone interested in having his teeth straightened should contact the Department of Orthodontics and request a screening ap- pointment, The candidate should keep in mind that the usually treats only one out of every six or seven applicants, so the 96 chances of being selected are not good, de- pending of course on how valuable your case might be for educational purposes. Dr. John Casko has been appointed new chairman of the Department of Ortho- dontics. Dr. Casko received a Masters of Science in Orthodontics from Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. and later aPh. D. in Educational Psychology from the University of Pittsburgh School of Den- tal Medicine, Division of Education Re- search. Dr. Brown feels that the University is really most fortunate to get him (Casko) here. Brown came to the University from a orthodontics fellowship at Harvard. He feels that with the young and well-train- ed staff the department has now, orthodon- tics can become a progressive department. He adds that Our goal is to train people to be socially sensitive as well as technically prepared and academically capable to handle a practice in Orthodontics. We hope to choose our graduate residents with this goal in mind, Doctor Robert Garnar shows the results of effective ortho- dontic treatment in the photo on the preceding page.

Undefeated at home, and defeated only once by a Kentucky team, U of L was a favorite in this year's Kentucky Women's Intercollegiate Con- ference tournament. But the tide changed. A UK team that U of L had defeated twice in season play upset the U of L team not once but twice in the KWIC double elimi- nation tournament. UK went on to qualify for the regionals, while U of L returned home with an unexpected and somewhat miserable defeat. However, all U of L players will be returning next year with the exception of senior Jamie Waddell. And the team hopes to go all the way. Janet Baker (below) sets one up off her wrist. Linda Little (right) outreaches the Opposition. 100 After twelve years.in the Missouri Val- ley Conference, U of L dropped out to help form the new Metro 6 league with Cincin- nati, Memphis State, Georgia Tech, Tulane, and St. Louis. Although primarily designed for basketball, the Conference offers cham- pionships in other sports as well. The first championship event for the Metro 6 came last November when five of the schools competed for the cross-country title at Louisville's Iroquois Park. Memphis State's Paul Bannon ran away with the in- dividual title, but it was Georgia Tech that grabbed team honors. Louisville junior Torn Hagan placed third in the five mile race, with teammate Mark Grundy finishing sixth. The Cardinals placed fourth in overall team finish.

Could the team overcome the loss of All Americans Allen Mur- phy and Junior Bridgeman from last year's national finalists? Would junior Wesley Cox (Right) shed his roller-coaster image and become a consistent topflight player? And finally, could coach Denny Crum (Below) mold a sen- ior-less group into a team that would be a contender for national honors? An opening 79-74 win at Memphis State quieted many fans' fears. And after a slow start, Cox exploded for 29 points and 19 re- bounds against Kentucky State in the Holiday Classic. He was named Most Valuable Player of the tournament and went on to average 16 points a game. But Crum had his problems. He saw the Cardinals drop three games in a row in January -- due to the inconsistent play of his young lineup. The Cardinals then straightened out to win nine ina row, but there were few who be- lieved that they would duplicate their performance of a year ago. 129 Just like teammate Wesley Cox, Phillip Bond (Below) was also the victim of a slow start. And, as Cox did, he recovered -- to become one of the better guards in the country. Bond missed three weeks of practice at the start of the season while he was with the United States team in the Pan American Games. After returning home with a gold medal, he con- centrated on helping the Cardinals. Plagued by poor shooting at first, he regained his eye and sparked U of L to several wins. A lefthander, he led the Cards on the fastbreak, with his ballhand- ling helping to save the games against Wichita and Dayton. One of the best shooters on the U of L squad was sophomore Rick Wilson (Left). Hitting on nearly 60% of his shots, Wilson easily made the transition from re- serve to starter over the summer. He averaged 16 points a game. 131 When coach Deny Crum called this year's basketball team, better than the 1974-75 bunch, many laughed. After all, they said, how are you going to im- prove on a team that won 28 of 31 games? But Crum insisted that if they wouldn't prove it this year, his senior- less team would show them in 1977, Af- ter 19 games and a 15-4 record, many remain unconvinced. But tourney time was yet to come.
