KENTUCKY HOSPITALITY IS PRAISED AGAIN
A convincing testimonial that the University of Kentucky offers the
kind of hospitality that is so noted in the South, was received in the form
of a letter last week by S. A. "Daddy" Boles. The letter was written by
W. L. Hughes, of DePauw Universit y and is as follows:
"I want to express the appreciation of the entire DePauw University basketball team as well as my own for the very courteous
treatment which we received while on our recent trip. The boys
fell in love with Kentucky in general and the city of Lexington and
the University of Kentucky in particular. Many comments were
made by them on the sportsmanship of the crowd. We were fortunate enough to defeat ONE of the best teams we have met and certainly the cleanest. DePauw wishes you a very successful season.
And we might add in passing that every team in the south does not
receive such a letter as Mr. Hughes has written. It is indeed a compliment
to the real gentlemen and ladies who witnessed the opening game of the
season and the fact that they were so sportsmanlike and received the praise
of outsiders should be an incentive to aspire to higher things while the
team is on the playing floor in future games.

That Lovell Underwood's University High school Basketball team is
one of the most promising in this section of the state can be gleaned from
the fact that it defeated the bigger Burgin five in the opening game of the
reason. Local fans should see these games, for no other reason than that the
team is a campus one.
Have you seen Kentucky's new Wildcat, fresh from the wilds of Ari
zona? It's a whopper and one that the student body should be proud of.

While our Wildcats did not win the game with DePauw they
displayed a mighty fine brand of teamwork and goal shooting and
taking into consideration that they relinquished the lead only two
minutes before the end of the contest, we will not be satisfied with
any thing less than the southern championship this year.
