received here of
the marringc of Isaac P. Shelby of
Little Rock, Arkansas, to Miss Bessie
Paisley, daughter of Mr. nnd. Mrs
D. L. Paisley, of Hope, Kansas.
Mr. Shelby has for several years
conducted a consulting engineering
and contracting office in Little Rock.
His eldest son, William Tnggnrt Shcl
by, is a senior in the college of Edu
cation nt the University of Kentucky
nnd is n member of the Phi Delta
Theta fraternity.
The second son,
Edward, s ten years old and is ex
pected to be nt U. K. in another six
or eight years. These two sons have

WHERE AUK THE REST?
As n result of letters and rosters sent out from this office to nil class
secretaries, vc have definite information that letters have been sent out
from the classes of '95, '01, '10, '22 and '24. These arc bringing a fine lot
Wc have heard nothing
of pay-up- s
but what of you other secretaries?
from you. We are hearing nothing from your classes. Of the thirty-fiv- e
requests sent out, five is indeed a poor percentage.
Perhaps you have written to your clnssmates but have not sent word
in to this office. If such is the case, you have done your part, but so far no
payments have been made by your class, nnd wc would like to know you
have done your duty and arc cooperating with us so please let us have a
copy of that letter.
We have had one payment sent in from Detroit by the Secrctary-Trea- s
IIM.V- of thi
Dntrnit Club, so it looks as though they were busy.
There follows below a letter from the Sccrctnry of the Chicago Club.
This is the result of a short time of concentrated effort spent for your Alma
Mater. This letter will no doubt bring in many pay-up- s.
This is the first letter that class or club secretaries have been asked to
write for nearly two years. You can surely spare n few hours for "Old U.
ington.
of K." Try it, wc arc sure thnt you will be surprised with the results.
"A Happy New Year to You and Yours!
"Wc are all interested more or less in athletics and today every large
nnd small school strives to build up teams that will develop students of
character and true sportsmanship.. Not every good man can be on the teams
proper but there is plenty of room for all students and nlumni to share in
be defeated, regardless of the score. In spite
the honors of victory-ncve- r
of rumors from a certain section of Lexington we must feel that the standing of the "Blue and White" teams is improving and nbovc all give them
our earnest support. Many important games have been won from the
sidelines.

"October 3, 1925, our Wildcats will engage in a furious battle right here
in Chicago. The University of Chicago Mnroons will be our opponents. This
event will afford members of Chicago Club (you and you and you each one
of us) the real opportunity to show our spirit as of old. Let us not think
of this game as being far away but begin to think about it, talk about it
and above all now act to do something. Soon committees Will be formed
and each one in this vicinity will be appointed and expected to act. Offer
your good suggestions any time now.
"Definite date for our annual Dinner Dance has not been set nnd it
now seems advisable to make it one of those after Easter parties this year.
Does that suit the majority? If you want it sooner, show a little life in the
form of real action and help put it over. Our percentage of "let somebody
else do it" is all out of proportion to the total number in this vicinity that
should be active.
"A report from Mr. W. C. Wilson, General Secretary of the Alumni Association is at hand showing that only a small number of us have paid our
dolcurrent dues. This is a small matter of mailing Mr. Wilson only two
the
lars, which includes a year's subscription for weekly issues of only Kernel.

Mr. A. H. Mason and Dr. L. C. Daniels, both associate members of the
club, were elected Vice Presidents.
A remarkable feature of this election
was that both candidates received the
unauimous vote of the whole club.
"Hence it was decided that both be declared elected, the victorious candidates to roll high dice at the next
meeting to decide which shall be first
and which second Vice President.
Mr. Mason is a Kentuckan by birth
but did not attend the university. He
is chief operating Engineer of the
Buffalo General Electric Company.
Dr. Daniels was formerly professor
of Chemistry at the university, and is
now Chief Chemist of one of the
departments of the National Aniline
and Chemical Company.
Edgar E. Johnson '14 was elected
secretary. "Bus" is another of our

Grainger is unique and distinctive

The program which he will present

Away up in a tree,

As bad as bad could be.

and will represent him in many styles
and schools.
Of a recent recital in Los Aitgeles,
"The Bulletin" said; "When 9,000
people put their seal of approval upon an artist through the medium of
prolonged and insistent applause, it
became necessary to yield to them
their wishes in the way of encore.
So it was that Grainger met with a
San Francis"co success last night that
almost equalled in fervor the demonstration given Paderewski and De
Pachman last season."
