The deserted football field is taking

spring training at the sight of the
football candidates Is taken back to
the good old days of last fall when
Kentucky linemen held like a stone
wall and when the gritty Kentucky
backfleld ploughed through the enemy's defence like demons. The occasion for these reminiscences into
the glorious past pf Kentucky Wildcats Is the presence of the football
squad on the field for the first days
of spring practice.
The squad has been dimlted in size
because of the participation in base
ball and track of a number of the football men, but the candidates for spring
training, numbering a dozen or more,
are making fairly good progress under
the coaching of Captain Murphreo,
leader-to-bof the 1920 Varsity. Some
of the men reporting for spring training are 'Murphree, Lavln, Fuller, Pribble, Colpltts, Baugh, Faulconer, Benson and Fest.

"The first game of the Wildcat

base-

ball season will be played Monday
afternoon, April 5, on Stoll Field, be
tween the Wildcats and the George
town College Tigers. Coach Gill will
present a classy .string of pill swat
ters to the old enemies from Scott
County, and he fully expects to tear
each individual tiger's claws out by
the roots before the initial game of
the season is over.
The Kentucky pitcher will deliver
the first ball of the season promptly
at 3:45 o'clock Monday afternoon. It
is Impossible to say just which one
of the Kentucky twirlers will have
to grace the
the first opportunity
mound, but it is a certainty that more
than one of the pitching staff will be
used in the game, and in all probability all of the candidates will have a
chance to show their ability in this
varsity game. These retained as
pitchers since the squad was cut are:
Grubbs, Slomer, Cooper, Byrd and
Meguiar. The receiving position lias
given the toach quite a bit of worry
recently. All of the candidates for
the position are new to Kentucky
baseball, and all are inexperienced.
However, there are several candidates
for catcher, and their showing in recent practice is very encouraging.
Either Heber, Pribble, Ridgway, Grant
or Faulconer will receive Monday.
For the first sack position two men
have been making exceptional showings. They are Kelley and Ed. Gregg.
This corner of the diamond was formerly the home of O. Brown, but the
Coach has seen fit to use him during
recent practices at short stop, and he
is doing the Job up well. The race
for the position of first baseman is
a very hot one, and there is much
speculation as to which of the two
men is to start the game against

there is the choice of Captain Propps,
Zerfoss and Williams. Burnham Is
as good as nailed to the third corner
of the diamond, and Brown is likely
to be a permanent fixture at shortstop.
There is also a pretty lively race
for the garden positions. There is a
letter man contending for his old place
at each of the three positions, but the
new men believe they stand a good
chance of winning places, and they
are going after them in earnest. The
candidates for right field are Mlzrach
(letter man), and P. M. Jones; for center field are Muth (letter man), and
O. L. Jones, for left field are Sauer
(letter man), and Boren. The way
these candidates show up with the

FOR
PLAY

"The Wolves and the Lamb"
To Be Presented

Near April 23
The annual Phllosophlan play will
presented at the Little Theatre
about Friday, April 23. A ticket committee has been appointed and will
begin selling tickets in a few days.
The Little Theatre Is quite small, having only one hundred and ten seats
and very little standing room. They
have arranged to give this extraordinary play, "The Wolves and the
Lamb," by Thackery, two or more
times on account of the limited seating capacity of the "Campus Playhouse.
Besides the natural desire of students to aid all University organizations there is the added inducement in
this production of placing before the
president, faculty and the public the
sort of play with excellent acting that
will show our appreciation
of the
Campus Playhouse, which we have
been so fortunate in getting.
The members of the cast are working night and day rounding the play
into shape and it can be safely said
from the display of talent that this
will be the best drama that has ever
been produced by this organization.

In Selecting a University
For a college education, there are five things
to be taken into consideration :

Mid-dleto-

n

Co-ed-

1.

The men at the head of the Insti-

tution.

The scholastic standing and ability
of the Teaching Staff.
3. The location and advantages of
environment.
4. ' Equipment, buildings, laboratories

2.

and libraries.

5.

Cost.

In all these respects the University of Kentucky commends itself to those seeking a higher
institution in which to carry on their education.
All Departments, including Liberal Arts,
Sciences, Agriculture, Law, Education, Mining,
Civil, Electrical and Mechanical Engineering.
The Government needs trained men and
women; college training will bring the result.
