UN IVERS IT Y 0 F L 0 U IS V ILL E'S CARDINAL VOL. XIII LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY, FRIDAY, MARCH 23, 1945 Frosh Are To Struggle With Sophs On~ upon a time in the dim, dark past ... in the days of the primitive college ... some sage of Snafu College decided that as long as life itse1f was divided into groups or classes, so college should be. And it came to pass that the designations of Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors were applied to the students according to their achievement levels. And since in real life the class above is feuding with the class below, it came to pass that t'he Sophomores fought with the Freshmen and the Seniors fought with the Juniors. It was later decided by an even wiser sage than the one aforementioned that, since the Juniors and Seniors have reac:thed the stage in their intellectual development at which they have no time for such inanities, such battles should be conducted only between the neophytes and their semi-neophytic brothers. Therein lies the beginning of the timehonored struggle between the Frosh and the Sophs. NO. 18 Frosh Meet The Board It Just Goes To Shovv You!

COUNCIL STATES··· Last semester the Liberal Arts Student Council passed a re-solution that all Freshmen on the campus would have to secure the Red and Black Freshmen caps which were to be worn during the Theshman year. There i~ a provision in the motion which states that there may be a Freiihman.-Sophomore contest, the result of which, if the Freshmen win will be the privilege of "taking off" their caps. ' This motion was adopted, not in the lig.ht of making the Freshmen feel in any way inferior to the rest of the student body, but to attempt to revive the "school spirit" which has been at a low ebb for some time. All announcements of Student Council plans will come from that body, and are official, to the extent that violations may be dealt with by the Council.

P. King, head of the Kentucky • Educational Association. Mr. King is Editor of the State School Journal, and Executive Secretary of t l-::. e Kentucky Educational Association. Mr. King presented the problems of the educational field in Kentucky to the Social Science class, and explained the cause of the problems. ' The main cause of poor educational facilities in Kentucky, as stated by Mr. King, is that the taxa~ion is severely restricted. A resident of the City of Louisville can be taxed no more than $1.00 for every $100.00 of assessed property, while a resident outside of the city can be taxed only . 75 on each $100.00. The three other taxable factors, (the taxes of which can be used for educational facilities), are economic income, output of industry of state, and retail sales. But in each of these factors, Kentucky has ranked little over one-half of the average of the entire United States. In his v.rords, "Kentucky has about 57% of the ability to support a public school program as the average state in the United States." In 1940, the average U. S. tax per capita, not including income tax, was $39.89. Kentucky's tax, $13.97, ranked about 1/3 of that average figure. Kentucky ranks 47th in school attendance, 47th in length of school year, 48th in enrollment, and 38th in attendance. This is in comparison with all the 48 states. Less than 20% of Kentuckians now 25 years old have completed 5 years or less of school, Kentucky ranks 39th in this comparison. Mr. King states that the reason for the poor attendance and mass uneducation is the fact that the laws compelling school attendance until the 15th year has been reached, are not enforced.
