U. of K.'ers Look At S. B~ 105
By JACKIE McMULLEN
During the recent political migration to Frankfort concerning
the Legislature Bill S. B. 105, University of Louisville students came
into-contact with several University of Kentucky students' opiJ;uon
on the pending bill.
Six U. of K. students who were in Frankfort in an effort to
eliminate bar exams in Kentucky, were pleased that the Universitj
of Louisville was showing their support of the bill by making an
appearance in the capital city. Five of the six people were pre-meds
and although attending the U. of K., two had f~thers to graduate
from the U. of L. Medical School and two others had grandfathers
who graduated from there. ,;
One student, whose name is withheld by request, stated, "We all
want to get :into a medical school and the University of Louisville
has one of the best Medical schools in the- country. Not only would
it take several years for the University of Kentucky to buitd a school,
it would take at least fifty years more to build up the prestige that a
good medical school needs." 1
It is the opinion of one student that on the whole the student
body of U. of K. is in favor of the bill aidjng U. of L. but that many
of the facultv members there were against it. .
There is some general misunderstanding on the U. of K. ca!llpus
concerning just what would be done with the money if the bill is
passed. A Research Department has be en established and at the
present time is considering what the Medical School needs most.
The money would permit development and expansion in the school's
service of the state community.

Mass, Of Stud.e·nt Lobbyists-Charge
On State Capitol TO Push S. ·8.105
U-L Students from Medical, Dental Scho9ls and Belknap Campus
Join Forces with Representatiyes from U-K and .Transylvania
In a mass hegira, over two hun­dred
students of the University
of Louisville swarmed into Frank­fort
last Monday to lobby S. B.
105 through the senate. The bill
which is still held in the Rules
Committee, would set up a state
health commission, endowed with
funds, to back medical research
in Kentucky.
Leaving Loui~ville early in the
morning with a police escort, 17
automobiles pulled into the state
capitol a short time later to begin
the all day lobby.
First on the agenda was the
assigning of various stvdents to
the senators and r~presentatives
who opposed the bill. These stu­dents
were instructed to talk
"politely t:>ut reasonably" to the
congressmen. Headquarters were
set up in the Blue Room of the
Capitol Hotel and in a special
room of the capitol building, it­self.
Students fanned out in all dir­ections
after getting as much in­formation
as possible from the
Senate Clerk as to the where­abouts
of their "quarry." Some
even went as far as Lexington
to talk with the opponants of the
bill.
Many students haunted the
hotels in hopes of catching some
of the senators there. Quite a few
were successful in their attempts.
One Senator, Ollie Lyon of Rowen
County, told a group of students
that he was a graduate of the U.
of L. Dental School and was doing
all ni his power to see that the
bill passed.
At 2:p.m. the entire student
group met outside the capitol to
discuss further plans. Leaders of
the party, Bill Rwnmage, .Tom
Kampfmueller and David Gittle­man,

Frankfort, President -Taylor last
Friday afternqon addressed a
throng of Belknap Campus, Med­ical
and Dental School Students
from the steps of the Administra­tion
Building and called for con­certed
action to secure passage of
pending Sena.te Bill No. 105.
The Bill, if passed, would pro­'
l(ide an annual State grant of
$150,000 to the University of
Louisville Medical School. Part
of that sum, approximately $100',
000, could be divided to the School
of Arts and Sciences. '
Our students, President Taylor
claimed, pre at present carrying
80 percent of the Schools operat­ing
costs. Other sources of re­venue
are private endowments
and the City treasury.
In order that further financial
aid be made available to relieve
the present strain upon students
and assure a promising future
for the Medical School, Dr. Tay­lor
requested that all assellJ,bled
become a citizen for an hour and
contact their State Senators and
Representatives, urging them to
vote favorably for S. B. No. 105.
· Psych ProfessiQn
Is Topic Of Talks
Dr. Noble Kelley, rerently re­turned
froni a meeting of the
American Psychological Associa­tion
in Washington, D. C. last
week-end, reported- that the prin­ciple
topic under.consideration by
the Executive Committee was the
emergence of psychology as a•pro­fession.
During the past few years psy­chology
has expanded greatly in
such areas as clinical .and indus­trial
psychoiogy. Dr. Kelley es­timates
that today there are ap­proximately
3,000 psychologists
teaching 'in colleges and universi­ties
thronghout the country, and
about 2,500 in applied-psychology
and in clinical and industrial
fields. Six or seven years ago
psychologists were almost entirely
' limited to wOrk in schools.
In Louisville there is now one
consulting psychologist andthree
industrial psychologists.
APA, at their recent meeting,
specifically tackled the problem
of state certification and licens­ing
of qualified psychologists.
APA feels that such action is
obligatory, sjnce there ·are anum­ber
of people not professionally
trained who are offering to the
public what is essentially a psy­chological
service.
