UL Board of Trustees boosts
local and non-resident tuition
Money to be used for faculty and staff salary increases
The cost of attending the Uni­versity
of Louisville has been
boosted $150 per year for resident
students and $250 per year for
non-resident students, effective
with the Summer Session 1966.
The increase was approved by
the Board of Trustees Wednes­day.
Resident tuition in all schools
except the school of Medicine will
be increased from $850 a year to
$1,000. Non-resident tuition in
those schools will increase from
$1,250 to $1,500 a year. Medical
school tuition will increase from
$1,050 to $1,200 a year for resi­dents
and $1,525 to $1,700 a year

Fall class registration
to be held this Spring
Registration for Fall semester
classes in the College of Arts and
Sciences is to be held May 16, 17,
18, and 19 as a new procedure is
instituted.
The new plan, according to
Dean Barber's office, has been
designed to simplify registration,
to improve the students' chances
of getting the classes they want,
and to alleviate a good deal of the
confusion of previous registra­tions.
On the above-mentioned dates
tables will be set up in the Multi­purpose
Room between 9-12 and
1-3. Students will register for
Fall classes at the following times:
Monday, May 16-those with 75
or more hours
Tuesday, May 17-45-74 hours
Wednesday, May 18--15-44 hours
Thursday, May 19-fewer than 15
Jefferson County in all schools
except the medical and dental
schools. In those two schools re -
idency status is extended to all
residents of Kentucky.
University of Louisville presi­dent
Philip Davidson commented:
"A good university doesn t
mean only fine buildings. Mod­ern
buildings make a university
great only if good teachers use
them, good students study in them
and good workers see that they
are properly operated.
"All of the objectives of higher
education ultimately depend up­on
the quality of teaching and
the efforts of all are necessary
to provide that quality. And un­fortunately,
quality costs money."
Money needed for salaries
UL officials estimate that in­come
from the increased tuition,
together with other anticipated in­come,
will enable the school to
meet the S2,000,000 in additional
expenditures needed in the com­ing
year.
UL students hear Thruston Morton
discuss his Southeast Asian policy
hours.
Those students with more than
45 hours who have not taken the
sophomore comprehensive exami­nations
must take ihem in order
to register this spring. They will
be offered Thursday, April 28,
from 1-5 in room 101, Jouett Hall
and Friday, April 29, in room 203,
Education Building.
The bulk of the new expendi­tures
- over $750,000 - will be
needed for salaries. The Univer­sity's
expansion has required the
appointment of many additional
faculty members, staff members
and student employees. Salary in­creases
are planned for faculty
By Larry Weisenthal and staff.
The topic was Southeast Asia,
and most of the audience was ex­pecting
a speech on Viet N am,
but Kentucky Senator Thruston
Morton spoke on the oft-debated
problem of the United.States' non­recognition
of Red China.
Speaking to an overflow crowd
at Bigelow Hall last Monday
morning, Morton outlined some
of the views supporting U.S. rec­ognition
of Red China and fol­lowed
with a rebuttal of each
argument. ·
In a short question-and-an­swer
period f o 11 o w in g his
speech, the Kentucky Republican
Archibald Cochran
elected Chairman
of UL Trustees
Archibald P. Cochran was
elected the new chairman of the
University of Louisville Board of
Trustees Wednesday.
He will serve as chairman until
the board holds its regular annual
election of officers in June. He
succeeds Eli H. Brown, Ill, whose
term on the board expired last
month.
First elected to the Board of
Thustees in 1962, Cochran was eo­chairman
of The Bonds for
Progress which promoted Louis­ville's
$28.9 million -bond issue.
He is currently the major expe-
.. ditor for projects included in the
bond issue.
A graduate of Male High
School, Cochran founded the
Cochran Foil Company here in
1939 and headed the company un­til
1958, when it merged with the
Anaconda Aluminum Company.
He was chairman of the board of
Anaconda until his retirement in
1964.
offered his opm10ns on several
aspects of the Viet Nam conflict.
Morton opened his speech by
attacking the idea that "to know
Mao Tse-Tung is to love him."
The Senator referred to the Pek­ing
regime as a "tyrannical and
barbaric expansionist government
. . . dedicated to the domination
of all Asia by any means avail­able."
Stating that U.S. recognition of
Red China would do nothing to
change the aggressive aims of the
Chinese Communists, Morton
pointed out that recognition of
the Soviet Union in 1933 was fol­lowed
by aggressive expansionism
in many Eastern European coun­tries.
The Senator cited as the most
effective argument for U.S. rec­ognition
of Red China the fact
that it seems impossible to ignore
680 million people. He countered
this contention by noting that the
United States has made many at­tempts
to co-operate with the
Chinese in such areas as world
communication and education.
The Peking Communists, how­ever,
have rejected the American
efforts demanding removal of U.S.
troops from Taiwan and the
Seventh Fleet from the South
China Sea as prerequisites for
such co-operation.
Diplomatic recognition of Red
China would be a "costly mis­take,"
Morton concluded, and
would serve only "to allow the
bandits of Peiping to shoot their
way into the guise of respect­ability."
Serving seeond term
The Senator, now serving his
second term of office, is the cur­rent
chairman of the Republican
Senatorial Campaign Committee.
A member of the House of Rep-resentatives
from 1947 to 1953,
Morton has also been a former
chairman of the Republican Na­tional
Committee.
Morton spoke at an official Uni­versity
of Louisville convocation
sponsored by the College of Arts
and Sciences Student Council.
Due to the large turn-out, the
Senator's talk was broadcasted
over closed-circuit television to
audiences in the multi-purpose
room and Speed School.
The new registration procedure
is outlined below.
1. Students must obtain an ad­visor's
slip from their faculty ad­visor
before May 16.
2. On the assigned date the stu­dent
should report to the Multi­purpose
Room at any time during
the aforementioned hours.
3. At the door he will be given

Draft test requests due
A second major expenditure­more
than $100,000-will pay the
University's share of the increased
social security rates. In addition,
for the first time, a retirement
program will be extended to UL's
non-academic employees.
The University is one of the
last major employers in Louis­ville
to extend a retirement pro­gram
to all employees. About

tomorrow
Local Draft Board recommends all students take test
Tomorrow is the last day for
UL men to sign up for draft
deferment tests.
This word comes from Miss
Winifred Phillips, chief clerk for
the Jefferson County draft boards.
Applications for the test, she said,
are available only at local draft
boards, and they must be post­marked
no later than midnight to­morrow.
Students cannot take the
test unless they have mailed in
an application.
No other dates set
The voluntary College Qualifi­cation
Test is scheduled for May
14 and 21 and June 3.
The May 14 test will be given
from 8:30 a .m. to 1 p.m. As of
press time, the place where the
test will be given had not been
determined. Harry Bockman, of
the Registrar's Office, will attend
a meeting Tuesday at the Uni­versity
of Kentucky to obtain the
details concerning the test. This
information will be published as
soon as it is received.
All college students in the Lou­isville
area taking the test will
take it at UL.
Miss Phillips warned that no
other dates have been set for
tests in the near future, and "if
a student wants to take the test,
he had better take it now."
"It is advisable, however, for
every male student to take the
test," Miss Phillips added, "no
matter what his standing in
school."
"The test can help you, but it
cannot hurt you. If you fail it,
it won't go against you, but if
you pass it, it may help you get
a deferment."
During the Korean War, when
similar tests were administered,
a score of 70 per cent usually as­sured
deferment.
In addition to college and grad­uate
students, high school seniors
who have already registered for
the draft are eligible to take the
test.
Miss Phillips emphasized that
