UNIVERSITY AND TUB LEGISLATURE

A number of men desiring to sit in the next General Assembly have
already announced themselves as candidates for places in the senate and
house.
Others have been active in building up their political fences and
will soon throw their hats into the ring with the hopes that they will have
n voice in making future laws that will mean much toward Kentucky's progress in years to come.
These men, no doubt, want to serve the best interest of the whole state

and if properly approached now on questions of
gladly commit themselves and do what they can after they have reached
Frankfort next winter. It is not possible for nny one man to know all the
i..f:..r in Mm mnnv Miimrs whirh those representatives and senators
have to vote upon. The advancement of our educational institutions certainly holds the center of interest and is very important if we are to make
the sort of real development in our state that should bo made.
Many of our lawmnkcrs will not have a good opportunity to get as much
information about our institutions for higher learning as they should have.
It, therefore, behooves all alumni residing within the borders of Kentucky
and our friends to acquaint these gentlemen with the facts regarding the
university at least, and ask that they give their support for the full appropriation asked by the university authorities. The next legislature should
approve some sort of building and maintenance program that will extend
over a period of years, thereby giving tne ooaru oi trustees oi me uiiivursii.?

COLLEGE' SONGS
CONTEST BEGINS
J. V. Faulkner, Class of
'95, Furnishes the
Prize
The Contest has started. In a let
ter recently received by Miss Mary
L. Didlak, secretary of the Class of
95, from J. V. Faulkner, Manitou
Okla., he says: "I recently had a copy
of The Kernel and noticed that there
seemed to be a dearth of college
songs, and to relieve that it was sug
gested that a
prize would
bring out enough songs to last a decade. The
check is 2 for
the Kernel and the third dollar is
prize suggested above. In
for that
case we get a real producer, I mean
to take out a life sized receipt for
dues and The Kernel."
Although it was mentioned in the
Kernel article that a dillar be offered
as a prize, it has since been suggested
that that would be a rather small
prize for a real college song that
would be used for years by students
and alumni. Perhaps two or three
other alumni would care to make a
like to make a donation.
Prof. Carl A. Lampert, head of
the department of Music at the Uni
versity of Kentucky, has accepted the
chairmanship of the judges. The
names of the others will appear in
next week's issue of the Kernel. The
contest will close May 1.
It is hoped that we will receive
many songs. We welcome them from
anyone who is attending or has ever
attended the university.
Another member of the Alumni As
sociation has read this "Just a Word"
item which appeared in the Kernel
of January 16 and she has answered
it by sending in a college song which
