Amateur Night
COMMITTEES NAMED
Plans for Amateur Night were made
and the officers of the year elected at
the first '19 meeting of the Strollers,
held in their studio Monday afternoon
Herndon Evans, Junior, in the College
of Arts and Science, was elected stage
manager.
Mr. Evans, who is an old Stroller of
fame, appeared in "The Lion and the
Mouse," "Father and the Boys" and
"How the Ham Saved the Home
stead." The future of the biggest play
in University dramatics is confidently
left in his hands. For his assistance
Preston Cherry, Senior Law student,
was elected Advertising Manager, and
Robert Raible, Junior A. B., Business
Manager.
Friday, October 31, the fateful Hallowe'en, was decided upon as Amateur
Night. Prizes of five dollars each will
bo awarded for the best individual act
and for the best team act. Students
must submit the names of their selections to the committee,
Emery
Frazier, Herndon Evans, Donald Dinning and Martha Buckman, and coms
pete in the

Fratmann.
Prof E. F. Farquhar and Prof. Mabie
have been appointed on the commit

"Did prohibition put a ban on college spirit?" We'll say It did NOT.
Julius Wolf, a graduate of old "State,"
and W. R. Reves, of Cincinnati, succeeded in stirring up so much red hot
pep in Chapel Friday that even the
score of empty seats which insist on
attending football rallys these days
seemed to rise and yell.
"Our rooters at the Georgetown
game were just about as useful as a
trapdoor in a row boat," said Wolf.
"Stoll Field isn't a cemetery but
there was no sign of life in that crowd.
That bunch was about as warm and
inspiring in its enthusiasm as twenty- five cents worth of jce."
Mr. Reeves, denying the title of
"Professor" and removing his coat simultaneously, proceeded to demonstrate the fact that Kentucky rooters
have an enormous and hitherto unsus
pected lung power. He stamped and
they yelled. Before the hour was up
they were inspired with so much pep
that it lasted until Saturday afternoon
and held the crowd in the bleechers
during a steady, drenching downpour
of rain, continuously cheering a fight
ing, if losing team.

Local Applicants.
The civic organizations and business
men of Lexington who have taken an
interest in Mr. Morris problem of obtaining enumerators,
have caused
many applications to be sent In from
the city and county. In adjoining
counties little interest has been shown,
and the number of applications re
ceived is far short of the number of
enumerators needed.
The district under the supervision of
Mr. Morris comprises the counties of
Fayette, Woodford. Franklin, Scott,
Bourbon, Clark. Powell, Estill. Lee,
Owen, Henry and Oldhuih. Applications for positions may be had from
Mr. Morris in room 208 of the Government Building in Lexington.

Papers for Admission to
Be In by October 20
Only a few days are left in which
young women of the University
may become members of the
n
Literary Society. Those desiring admission into the society are
requested to write a paper which is
to be handled In not later than
October 20.
Following Is a list of topics from
which that for the paper may be
chosen:
The Race Riot Question.
The Church Union.
Omar Khayyam's Theory of Life.
The Internal Struggle In Germany.
The Theory of Spiritualism.
The Actor's Strike.
Life of Andrew Carnegie.
The Economic Side of National Pro
hibition.
Life and Work of Dr. Anna Howard
Shaw.
The Value of a Vacation.
The Value of Swimming.
The Danger of Hasty Demobilization.
Personal Experiences in Social Service Work.
Original Short Story (1000 or more
words).
These papers are to be signed with
a
and together with an
envelope containing the writer's real
name and the pen name used are to
be put under the door of Room 44 of
Patterson Hall. Every Freshman girl
as well as older girls who do not belong to the Phllosophian Literary Society are urged to take advantage of
this opportunity to become members.
The society, which was established
in 1882 for the purpose of furthering
literary interests, is the only one In
the University restricting its mem
bership to women. Each year the
Philosophians present a play and at
this time all members are given an
opportunity to prove their ability
along dramatic lines by trying out for
parts In the play.
It is hoped that every girl not be
longing to the society will write a
paper and thus help to make this the
most notable year In the history of
the organization.
