Team Receives An Invitation
To Play Series of Games
in Cuba
In one of the most spectacular games
of the present season the University of
Kentucy Basketball Team won the first
of the four games scheduled on the eastern trip when it defeated the Washington and Lee Quintet at Lexington, Va.,
last Wednesday evening by a 21 to 20
score.

This is the second defeat of the Generals this season the other lone defeat
being rolled up by the strong West Virginia Team. According to dope this
victory over Washington and Lee makes
the wearers of the Blue and White stand
in remaining
a mighty good chance
games to be played on this trip. The
pass work of the Wildcats in the Washington and Lee tilt was excellent
throughout the game. The score at the
end of the first half was 12 to 9 in Kentucky's favor-- With the score a tie and
just a half minute to play Lavin shot a
foul which gave the Wildcats the winning point. Last year at the Tournament at Atlanta the winning point that
decided the championship of the south
was made under similar conditions with
just a minute left to play. The results
of the Washington and Lee game shows
that the wearers of the Blue and White
still have the old "pep" and nerve that
led them to victory in 1921.
Wildcats Will Go to Cuba
That this sort of reputation will soon
spread was amply demonstrated last
Tuesday afternoon by the telegram received by Director S. A. Boles from the
The
Cuban Athletic Club of Havana.
telegram states that the club is anxious
to arrange a series of games with the
Kentucky Quintet and reads as follows:
"Can you arrange a basketball series

Whether or not this offer is accepted
rests with the Athletic Council, but the

are regarded in athletic circles everywhere.

Sherwood Eddy, one of the greatest
student 'speakers connected with the
Y. M. C. A. is coming to the University
of Kentucky March 3, 4 and 5 to give a
series of Evangelistic lectures. This
is one of the greatest opportunities that
the University has had along this line
for Mr. Eddy brings a message for everybody and is well worth hearing.
Sherwood Eddy, now a world figure in

Christinn leadership, was graduated at
Yale in 1891. He went to India in 1896
at his own expense- After fifteen years
of work among the students of the Indian
Empire, he was called to be Secretary for
Asia for the International Committee of
the Young Men's Christian Association.
Nine years of service in this capacity
among the students and officials of India,
China, Japan, the Near East and Russia
have been characterized by the brilliance,
energy, judgment and devotion so
singularly combined in this man.

In
with

1912-191- 3

Mr. Eddy was engaged

Dr. John R. Mott

in conducting
meetings for students throughout Asia.
In June, 1914, Mr. Eddy returned to
China for an extended campaign among
the students and official classes there.
Notwithstanding the war, the audiences
that year averaged 3,000 a night. In
Hongkong, for instance, 4,000 students
and business men attended, and it was
necessary to hold three meetings in three
successive hours in one of the largest
theaters in the city to accomodate the
crowd. The officials of China from the
President and
down to the
governors and local officials received Mr.
Eddy, many of whom sent out officinl
proclamations of the meetings. During
the early years of the war, Mr. Eddy was
with tho British army in France, and
during the closing years on the American,
British and French front. Since the
signing of the armistice his regular work
hns taken him across Asia, including
Egypt, Palestine, Syria, Mesopotamia and
Turkey, through tho stricken countries of
Europe, and round tho world- - His twenty-four
years of service in lands abroad
have fitted him to deal in truer perspective with the present world situation as a moral challenge to America.
In years filled with untiring activity,
time has been found for useful authorship; beginning with his "Supreme Incision" there followod his books on "The
Awakening of India," "Tho New Era in
Asia," "The Students of Asia," "With Our
Soldiers in France," "Tho
Right to
Fight," and his latest book "Everybody's
World," interpreting present conditions
in Japan, China, India, the Near East and
Russia, showing America's relation to
present world problems.

in favor of the student holding the high

for work in economics. The key is open
to both women and men, and does not

made exclusively to seniors

become one of the most coveted prizes
of the University. Mr. Paul P. Cooper,

"You'll be buried in the big company," say
some. ' 'Everything is red tape and departments working against each other."
"Your little company never gets you anywhere," others assert. "The bigger the
company the bigger your opportunity."

boosting profits at the expense of service?
You must look deeper. What is the organization's standing in the industry ? What do
its customers say? What do its competitors say?
There are industries and there are companies
which offer you every opportunity to grow.
Spiritually they are as big and broad as the
earnest man hopes to build himself. If you
are that kind of man you will be satisfied with,
a company of no lower standards.
Conversely, it you are working lor sucn a

From A Faint Blue Glow
To Modern Miracles
FDISON saw it first a mere shadow of blue light streaking across the
terminals inside an imperfect electric lamp. This "leak" of electric current, an obstacle to lamp perfection, was soon banished by
removing more air from the bulbs.
But the ghostly light, and its mysterious disappearance in a high
vacuum remained unexplained for years.
Then J. J. Thomson established the electron theory on the transmission of electricity in a partial vacuum and the blue light was
understood.
In a very high vacuum, however, the light and apparently the currents that caused it disappeared.
One day, however, a scientist in the Research Laboratories of the
General Electric Company proved that a current could be made to pass
through the highest possible vacuum, and could be varied according to
fixed laws. But the phantom light had vanished.

Here was a new and definite phenomenon

a basis for further

re-

search.
Immediately, scientists began a series of experiments with far reachtube, known as the Coolidge
ing practical results. A new type of y
tube, soon gave a great impetus to the art of surgery. The Kenotron
and Pliotron, followed in quick succession by the Dynatron and Magnetron, made possible long distance radio telephony and revolutionized
radio telegraphy. And the usefulness of the "tron" family has only
X-ra-

begun.

The troublesome little blue glow was banished nearly forty years
ago. But for scientific research, it would have been forgotten. Yet
there is hardly a man, woman or child in the country today whose
life has not been benefited, directly or indirectly, by the results of
the scientific investigations that followed.
Thus it is that persistent organized research gives man new tools,
makes available forces that otherwise might remain unknown for
centuries.

LOOKING

FORWARD

The second semester of the University
opens
of Kentucky session of 1921-2- 2
under happy auspices notwithstanding a
number of untoward incidents that, for
the last several months, have tended to
bring the institution into the limelight
in a very critical way.
With figures incomplete the Kernel
understands that the student body for
the current semester will be numerically
as large virtually as it was the preceed-in- g
semester with a substantial number
of students entering
As we stand upon the threshold of the
new semester it might not be inappropriate to take a brief retrospective glance
at the period just closed and a perspective of the one we are entering. The
Kernel wishes to congratulate the faculty
and student body upon the excellent
and mutal underspirit of
standing that seems to exist at this time
with more emphasis than the University
has hitherto experienced.
Notwithstanding the fact that the University has been under fire of severe
criticism by persons assuming to believe
that it is giving instruction with the
purpose of confusing the student mind in
matters of faith and religion, the Uni
versity of Kentucky has borne itself
with becoming dignity and has, we believe attracted friends it may not have
had otherwise. Although economic conditions in the state are not such as to
guarantee possibility of adequate Unis
it
versity appropriation,
is apparent that the Legislature desires
to supply every dollar of funds for its
use that it can possibly properly devote
to it. In the meantime the institution
mid-yea- r.

ago last fall and has gntceously worked
himself to the highest pinnncle of success
through his
in his coaching capacity
personality and his ability to show how
things should be done.
