MANY APPLICATIONS
FOR HOMESTEAD LAND
Homestead land in Wyoming recently opened to settlement by
men thru a law passed a short time
sixty days'
ago giving the
priority in filing on the claims In the
completed North Platte Irrigation
Project has been much In demand,
according to a letter received several
days ago from Daniel C. Carson, a student of the University, who left two
weeks ago for Cheyenne, Wyoming,
to acquire one of these claims.
According
to "Kit," there were
twenty men for each claim to be given
out and the names were placed in a
hat and one name drawn from each
twenty names in the hat. The lucky
one was entitled to file on a claim.
Up until a week ago "Kit" had not
been successful in getting a claim and
stated that If he were unsuccessful in
getting some land in the North Platte
Project, he was going up to the Shoshone Project in the northern part of
the State and try his luck there.
This news casts a damper over the
hopes and "air castles" of a number
of other University men who have
been contemplating following '"Kit's"
example and going West to grow up
with the country.
According to a letter received by
one of the boys interested
in this
Homestead Land proposition, from
the Dean of the College of Agriculture
of Wyoming, all the land in the North
Platte Project and the Shoshone Project Is taken up, but he stated that
there Is a rumor of another project
that Is to be opened up soon, known
as the Wind River Project, and ho advises anyone Interested to write to Mr.
Chas. S. Hill, Commissioner of Immigration, Cheyenne, Wyoming, for

right giving lies the Becrct of untold pleasure. So
with tho coming of Easter the opportunities nro many for everyone to bo

Revival of State High School
Meet One of Features
In this issue of the Kernel the students will find the announcement of
the Spring Track Schedule for the
University. It will be noted that the
schedule includes our old opponents,
Vandy, Clncy and Miami, as well as
the rival State track squads. The
Southern Intervolleglate Athletic Association meet nt Atlanta will be one
of the biggest events of the season.
One of the features
of the 1920
schedule Is the revival of the State
High School meet, which was begun
in 1912 and continued until 1918. Each
annual track meet gained in importance and occasioned more interest
from year to year, until the sixth annual meet, held in 1917, which was
participated in by a record number
of high schools.
It will be remembered that Jimmie Wilhelm, now a
student in this University, then a
student in Paducah High School, won
aththe medal for the best
lete in the meet. In this last meet the
silver loving cup was won by Louisville High School.
Information will soon be sent out
by the Athletic Department to all the
Kentucky high schools in regard to
particulars of the meet. The largest
number of participants in the history
of the Interscholastic Meet is expected here May 8.
