IS BIGGEST TILT OF YEAR
Visiting Team Includes Three

Berths

(By WARREN A. PRICE)
Tomorrow will be a Mardi Gras day
for University of Kentucky baseball
followers, so great is the importance
attached to the annual clash between
the Michigan and the Wildcat bull
teams to be played tomorrow aftenion
at 2:30 o'clock.
The Wolverines have come to the
Blue Grass ten times to play Ken
tucky, and have gone back to Michi
gan nine times with the scalp of their
victim hanging on their belt. Once,
in 1924, the Wildcats have been able
to repulse the invaders with a decisive
defeat. In that game two years ago
Kentucky pr6bably showed the great
est playing ability, that has ever been
exhibited by a Wildcat baseball team.
Captain Riffe, playing at that time
his first year on the varsity, drove in
practically all of the runs, got three
hits out of three times up, and made
some spectacular catches in the out
field, acomplishments that were potent
factors in winning the game for Kentucky, 9 to 8. Last year, Michigan
received litle opposition and won a
loosely played contest, 18 to 5.

Omricon Delta Kappa Initiates 15;
Was Founded on Campus Last May

Nu circle of Omricon Delta Kappa,
national honorary fraternity for cam
pus leaders, initiated 15 of the outstanding men of the University of
Kentucky in the private dining room
of the Phoenix hotel on Saturday,
March 27. Following the initiation a
luncheon was held in the Palm room.
Emmet Milward, president of the
chapter, acted as toastmaster and Dr.
McVey was the speaker.
Those initiated were: James Aug

Guthrie Bright, Charles Alberts,

Few of the dried and cut, age old
after dinner speeches will mar the
success of the banquet, which will be
financed by the business department
of the paper. No assessment will be
made to replenish the treasury, and
the Kernel will refrain from the sale
of any wares to help promote the
dinner. All guests, the members of
the active staff, havo been asked to
bring no monetary repwesentatives,
and to refrain from breaking fasts
before the night of the banquet.
Honor Guest Invited
The Kernel will have three honor
guests at the dinner, Miss Marguerite
McLaughlin,
Miss Irene McNnmnra,
and Prof. Enoch Grehan, head of the
journalism department. The original
plans culled for invitations to Arthur
Brisbane und Dorothy Dix, but it was
finally decided that the greater part
of the evening's success depended on
a careful election of honor guests.
So Kentucky's incipient and nidi
nicntary journalists will forget tho
ink, the paper and the press, und turn
thoughts to the way of the stomach
