greatest little town in the country, and
every one of us said "Amen."
Kentucky's system of training en
ginccrs as gentlemen first and as spe
cialists never, was Dean Anderson's
subject. Humility and a generous sup
ply of gentlemanly characteristics arc
the greatest requisites for a successful
engineer, he said.
There was quite a murmuring in the
audience when the little dean told of
the more than 200 calls that arc already
in his office for the 51 Kentucky men
who will graduate this year. Dean
Anderson had little time before his
train left to do more than greet the
alumni, but he did drop a fow interesting news items about Alma Mater for
us. C. E. Planck, secretary.

Ideas developed after careful consideration of the University's needs
are expected by the Executive Committee in the $100 "Best Plan for Getting Results" contest. As stated before the winning idea may be a slogan, a series of advertisements or
newspaper stories, a plan of organization or an inspired cartoon.
The ten alumni who have made
this contest possible are J. Will Stoll,
James W. Carnahan, J. I. Lyle, Charles
R. Brock, Howard P. Ingcls, Desha
Breckinridge, Frank Daughcrty, Jas.
H. Gardner, Rodman Wiley and W.
H. Grady.
Judges of the contest will be Prof.
Enoch Grehan, S. L. Posthclthwait and
John Lansill. All contributions must
be in the hands of the Secretary of the
Alumni Association by May 25.

Watch the Press
Alumni must feel concerned in .treatment given the University by the press.
There has ibeen a marked improvement
in this respect in the last three or
four years due to more accurate infor
mation about the University current
among the citizens of the state.
This has resulted in large part from
the greater activity of alumni who have
circulated such information. The Uni
versity of Kentucky is not standing
alone. To discredit or handicap it is
to retard progress of the whole public
school system. There has been one
impressive defection in this respect
lately in the Kentucky press. A cure
can be accomplished only by the eternal vigilance of alumni and a forceful response to injustice.
The alumni .secretary regrets the
necessity to call attention to such a
situation. He believe the aid of alumni can be depended on in righting the
wrong.
CHANGE

COMMENCEMENT

Colleges Select Earlier
Date for Ceremonies.
Throughout the west and middle
west a change in the date for holding
college commencements was made
last year. The date was made earlier
so that the returning
alumni and
friends of the institution might come
in contact with undergraduates
and
observe the functioning of the institution.
Undergraduates
thus receive in
spiration to do greater work while
still in college.
Alumni get a better
idea of the workings of the institution
which have changed greatly in the last
decade. Such a proposal may be
made by the Board of Trustees of the
University of Kentucky this year,

gathering of alumni in Detroit.

his visit with Dean Anderson in Lexington. He said Lexington was the
