possible previously.

of tSe Bureau of School Service and

Professor H. H. Downing, of the
department of mathematics, who has
spent the past fifteen months at the
University of Chicago working on his
doctor's degree, has returned to Lexington to resume his worktat the university this year. Although it had
been more than seven years since his
previous leave of absence, Professor
Downing took last year as his Sabbatical year. He was accompanied
by his family who made their home
in Chicago while he was studying.
Professor Downing received his
bachelor of civil engineering degree
in 19084 at the University of Kentucky and his master of science degree at the University of Chicago
eight years later. When he returned
to Chicago in June '26 for his Ph. D.

Professor Downing has passed his
two language requirements, French
and German, and had submitted his
required courses, so his thesis received most of his time.
Prpfessor Downing expects to continue work on his thesis while at the
university this year. He hopes to
finish it by next summer, reutrn to
Chicago, submit his work, take his
final examination and receive his degree.

Annual Meeting of Southern
Conference Will Be Held

in

Lexington For the First Time
The sixth annual meeting of the
Southern Conference since its organization in Atlanta, Ga., in 1921, will
be held at Lexington, December 9 and
10, 1927. This is the first time in the
history of the conference that the
University of Kentucky has had the
honor of being hostess to her sister
members and a very interesting meeting is anticipated.
The Southern Conference is the result of a movement started years ago
in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association to become a compact
and cooperating organization of those
Southern institutions who were progressive enough and numerically
large enough to adopt the rules and
regulations long in force in the North,
East, and West The first endeavors
to organize seemed to show lack of
coordination; however the kick-ohad beeen made, so the game really
began with a meeting, called by Prof.
S. V. Sanford, of the University of
Georgia, who is now president of the
conference, at the annual meeting of
the S. I. A. A., on December 12 and
13, 1920 in Gainesville, Fla., opening

Crane's address, Prof. Carl Lampert
will conduct the singing of hymns,
and George Arkwell will sing a solo.
The benediction will be pronounced by
Dr. T. C. Ecton.
Doctor Crane is the pastor of the
Centre Methodist Episcopal church
in- Maiden, and is one of the outstanding religious speakers of the day.
His pleasing personality is well
known to the students of the many
schools where he has spoken. Pres.
William J. Hutchins, of Berea College,
says of him:
"He is one of the two or three most
intelligent and effective speakers on
religion whom we have had in Berea."
'Mr. H. E. Taylor, business manager
of Berea College, writes of Doctor
Crane:
"He is accustomed to speaking before audiences- of university students
and has the faculty of getting his
message across without obtruding his
personal views or sickening his audience with the usual line of evangelical talk. Personally, I think he is
one of the strong men of the United
States."
The University of Kentucky extends an invitation to the public to
attend the series of talks to be given
in the Men's Gymnasium: Tuesday
