Independents Told
To 'Cause Trouble'
by Jane Clay
"Shake things up, cause a little
trouble!" Dean Richard L. Bar­ber
of the College of Arts and
Sciences gave this advice to the
Independents Association last Fri­day.
Dean Barber spoke to the
group informally on "the role of
the independent student on cam­pus."
Dean Barber quickly added that
this shake-up should take the
form of "orderly protests" and
"carefully worked out and con­sidered
opinion." An Independents
Association can undertake "new
activities" and can be a "very ef­fective
agency for getting things
done." It is not liable to many of
the "difficulties" which fraterni­ties
face.
It is not the "paradox" it seems
for independents to organize,
Dean Barber said. "It is excel­lent
for independent students to
associate together. A lot can be
done." An Independents Associa­tion
"can be one of the most con­structive
forces for growth and
intellectual excellence a college
can have."
In answer to questions from the
audience, Dean B arb e r com­mented
on combines and campus
el~ctions. "Combines," he said,
"are a fact of political life on
every level." A purpose of the
independent students is "not to
stamp out, but to outvote" these
combines.
Our Generation
Is Materialistic
Marmion Says
"Our generation has falleh be­fore
the temptation of looking for
life in terms of material things,
B i s h o p Gresham C. Marmion,
Episcopal Bishop of the Diocese of
Kentucky told the official Uni­v
e r sit y Christmas Convocation
last Wednesday.
The University of Louisville
Choir, directed by Dr. W. D. Dah­lin,
sang at the convocation held
in Bigelow Hall at 10:00 a.m. and
sponsored by the Religious Coun­cil.
During the last fifteen min­utes
of the program Dr. Philip
Davidson lit the official Univer­sity
Christmas tree in front of
the Administration Building. The
tree, decorated by Cwens, sopho­more
women's honorary, was cov­ered
with gold and silver balls
and chains.
The theme of Bishop Marmion's
speech was ''What do you want
for Christmas?" The Bishop noted
that some people "are so con­e
e r n e d about the materialism
which has grown up around the
observation of Christmas that one
clergyman ... has suggested that
the Church turn this time of the
year over to the commercial inter­ests
and celebrate the birth of our
Lord at some other time."
