TIBB S FLOODI RS

mountain girl who
wanted to do her part in helping
the refugees of the t?ir:b;e 1937
flood that ravished the Ohio River
valley.
In the mythical Kentucky mountain hamlet of Huoben. the residents had heard of the Hood, but no
one dreamed
that their village
would be hast to 2o homeless
villians.
That is. not until this little girl
named Tibb pleaded her cause fc
her sister who was an imixrtant figure in the life of Eubben. The local
called a meeting and decided to let the refugees come there,
so a call mas made to the Lexington
Red Cross pertaining to Hubben's
willingness to aid the homeless.
Everyone prepared for the arrival
of the 26 flood victims in a most
hospitable way. But
it was learned that they were all Negroes. In

We'd like to lift an exceqit from the open letter printed elsewhere on this page. Dean Marten ten Hoor, Dean of the University of Alabama and national president of Omicron Delta Kappa,
wrote:
"The campus sing at which I had the honor and pleasure of
officiating as one of the three judges was one of the most stirring
and satisfying affairs that I ever attended in the realm of extracurricular activities. The performance of the groups astonished
me. The enthusiasm and the spirit of participants and audience
demonstrated that cvervlxxly had his heart in what he was doing.
The University of Kentucky and particularly the participating
groups and sponsoring organizations deserve warm congratulations on this splendid project."
Dean ten Hoor is one of many persons who have, to our knowlSing.
edge, been very pleasantly surprised by our
Having lxen rather active last year in helping to obtain and
entertain judges for the event, we heard many such comments.
The calibre of the judges has been kept on a very high level.
" Fcrsons of advanced musical training, having served once, are
alwavs more than willing to return if possible. Practically every
one of them is, as was Deau ten Hoor, astonished at the excellent

performances.
This activity is one of which every student in the Universitv
can justly lie proud. It is completely organized and participated in
by students. It is one of a few strictly student activities wholeheartedly entered into by the students.
We'd like to join Dean ten Hoor in hearty congratulations to all
participating groups and to the sponsoring organizations.

Improvement Is Needed
For Prosperity In Bolivia

(This is the second of three
articles written by a UK student,
Manuel Mercado P., about his native
land of Bolivia. Ed.)
Until prosperity and stability Is

Bolivia will always be in

her actual condition of precarcious
and undefined life. Internal im- provement is our first necessity and
it will be almost an impossibility to
go along without the
of others who can alford it.
Bolivia's agricultural future is of
limitless possibilities. In the Orient

where 150.000 square miles of arable
land is in the hands of small and
big landlords, production in large
scale is assured; and only "e of this
land is cultivated. The provinces of

bamba, Tarija are excellent for cattle raising, increasing agricultural
knowledge and creation of newer
farming areas. Oil production is
also assured in the Southern part
of the country. Millions of barrels
have already been exploited; millions are possibly waiting to be refined and used.
Bolivia's largest metal production
is also impressive. Ironically someone described her as a beggar sitting under a golden chair.
The diversification and amplification of her industry is vital in most
of its aspects and most of them of
