To Assist Head of

Dispensary

The students of tho University of
Kentucky will notice quite a change
in what was last year called the dis
pensary, but what is now referred to
as the "University Health Service."
However, it is still the department
of Hygiene Public Health. Students
will nlso be pleased to know that Dr.
W. W. Zwick has been appointed Associate Resident Physician in aiding
Dr. Lipscomb to make this department a success both to the student
and to the university.
The private offices have been finished in white with increased facilities for handling cases, and the former large treatment room has been
made into two smaller private offices, thus making it much more convenient. Improvements for lighting
arrangements have been adopted. In
briofplh'e office conditions have been

the two resident physicians.

perform the physical examinations of
first year students. They pay special
attention to those who take part in
athletics and examine those students
each year to prevent some one entering the various sports who might
in some way receive an increase of
a former disability. Attention to little things such as infections, colds
and bruises, must not be neglected
by tho student, for that is a part of
the obligations of tho two physicians,
and it is all free of charge to the
students.
The office in the last two years has
had over 700 calls a month, exclusive of excuse calls, and for that
reason and others, no calls will be
made off the campus hereafter. The
University Health Service is limited
exclusively to tho campus.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL
TO BE ABOLISHED
Former Team Members Request
Senate to Reconsider

In an interview with President
Frank L. McVey, tho following reasons were set forth in explanation of
the action of the university senate
in voting to abolish girls' intcrcol-legiat- o
basketball for the coming
session:
There is no agreement as to the
type of basketball to be played by
girls in intercollegiate games. Basketball has proved to bo a strenuous
sport for boys und is therefore too
strenuous for girls.
It is undesirablo to have girls in
tho university traveling over tho
state and throughout tho south in
order to tuke part in intercollegiute
sport. The trips are very expensive
because of the necessity of proper
chaperonago and provision.
Some very irritating consequences
have developed in the past as a result of intercollegiate games.
Inter-clas- s
games can bo played
between tho girls, which will afford
exercise, Bport and recreation.
Some degree of protest has arisen
among the girls on response to tho

One of the most artistic and by

Moscow and Petrograd, in White

exhibition will last, it was stated by
Prof. Carol M. Sax, head of the department of art at tho university, until October 9, in order that all who
wish to do so may haye an opportunity to see the pictures.
This exhibition was organized by

EVENING'S

of Law

The freshman class of the university held its first convocation Tuesday, fifth hour, in the new basketball building. Tho program, which
was in charge of Dean Melcher,
opened with the singing of "Onward,
Christian Soldiers," led by Professor
Lnmpert. Following this, President
McVey read a portion of the Thirty-thir- d
Psalm, after which tho class
joined in repeating the Lord's Prayer.
The President then introduced to
the class the Rev, Dean R. K. Musts ie, rector of the Christ Church Cathedral, of Lexington. Dean Massie
made a pleasing and very forceful
uddress, taking as his theme tho four
elements: work, play, love and worship, with which the race of man
