bidding adieu to the G:crgia capitol

Last wc?k eight more Blue and White
athletes journeyed to the court classic
this time with a prety good reputa

best com", fives in the conference
But Kentucky fans were oomed to
disappointment
Visions c: another
wonder tiain were suddenly dispersed
when the C s met North Carolina and
fell, df:r-in the first round
of the mtney Kentucky simply met
a better team. The Tarheel five played

rings around the

the Carolinians in danger of losing after the first Jew minutes ot play. Kentucky aopeared lost on the large tournament floor and could rot adapt' her
style of play to the new court.
It is true that :he Cats failed to display anything i.ar their Ltst form
but it is doubtful that anyone could
have beaten the Tarheels 'last Friday

night when they defeated Georgetown

team was outclassed from the first. .
Kerth and Klopp each scored 10
points.
Kerth played a fast offensive game, and the floor work and
passing of Kerth and Helm was responsible for the majority of goals.

I am the mother of the fathomed sea,

land.
Forever God's destiny is man's right

And God's own cooling rain is left
for me
So on, through life's eternity I flee
I feed the
vales and all the forest
grand,
I feed the desert and its burning sand
I am the soul of sadness and of glee.

But still I am the king of all the earth,
And mottled thousands worship by my

To pioneers of all ages I am the guid- eI mix their years of wisdom .reason,

To furnish steam as power to drive

Over One Hundred Are Enrolled
From Lexington and
Vicinity

PLAN LARGER PROGRAM
Nearly 1,000 Are Served During
The First Semester This

Year

More than one hundred teachers
from Lexington and vicinity are being
given extension courses by the Department of University Extension at
the University of Kentucky. Nearly
all of these teachers have enrolled
within the past ten days. Courses in
Home Economics, an extension course
in the teaching of nutrition and health,
has enrolled seventy-on- e
teachers. A
course in education, given by the Dean
of the College of Education, has enrolled thirty-thre- e
teachers. Professor
Farquhar is giving an extension class
in Browning, and Professor McFar-lan- d
an extension course in Botany.
The extension course in Home Economics is being given by Miss Fitzgerald. All courses are being given
for college credit.
Several inquiries have reached the
Department of University Extension
to know if it plans to expand its program next year to meet the demand
that will likely come by reason of the
recent ruling of the Board of Education of the City of Lexington regarding the salary schedule for teachers.
The Department expects, according
to the Director, to make every attempt
to work out a larger program for the
teachers of Lexington and vicinity,
if the demand is justified, so that those
engaged in teaching or other pursuits
may have an opportunity to continue
work toward degrees.
'
During the first semester of this year
nearly one thousand
teachers were
served by the Department of Univer- it
Extension. About five hundred
teachers were enrolled in thirty different extension courses given by the department at various points over the
state of Kentucky. Only about twen
ty courses are being given during the
econd semester, but it is expected
that the enrollment will be nearly as
large as during the first semester.

AUTOMOBILE DRIVERS
ASKED TO HELP
There has never been a time
since automobiles appeared on
the campus when so little attention has been paid oo the appearance of the campus. Drivers have used walks and grass
plots with entire lack of regard
for the rights and appearance of
the property of the University.
Continuation of this sort of
practice must result in the removal of all automobiles from
the campus. The cutting up of
walks and plots is deplorable.
I am asking people who use
automobiles on the campus to
show some evidence that they
believe in well kept grounds.

President.
