HOARD OF TRUSTEES

Sound Financial Footing
For Greeks

A monthly audit of the accounts
of social fraternities at the University will be put into effect at the
beginning of the 1939-4- 0 school year.
Dean of Men T. T. Jones announced
today.
The audit shall be made by and
under the direction of the business
office and the expense of each audit
shall be paid by the fraternity
whose acccunts are audited, the
Dean said.
The monthly audit plan has been
put into effect successfully at ether universities and has been an incentive for fraternities to collect
bills at the end of each month,
thereby keeping themselves on a
sound financial basis.
No figures are obtainable at this
date as to the exact cost that will
be entailed by these monthly audits, but it has been estimated that
the cost will range from three to
five dollars per month.
In the event that a fraternity is
already having its accounts audited, the acccunts will not be subjected to a second audit. However,
these separate audits will have to
meet the approval of the business
office and a statement of the financial standing of the organization
recorded in the office.
The monthly check-u- p
plan was
ordered by the Board of Trustees at
its last meeting following a request
by President McVey and Dean Jones
that a step be taken to aid organizations in keeping a sound financial
footing. According to the order
passed by the Board of Trustees,
the Dean of Men and Dean of
Women may require the audits of
the accounts of fraternities at least
twice a year and more often if advisable.
Regarding this matter. Dean Jones
printed ".'it hi.il a great Ccal could
happen to a fraternity's financial
standing within six months and the
plan should embody the monthly

"Dear Editor: Since Kentucky is
the home of Sadie Hawkins why. of
all places, can't we have Sadie
Hawkins week instead of just one
night? You know that I. for one,
couldn't catch a man in just one
night Couldnt we. at least, have a
week-en- d
of it? It would be a little
better to start Thursday noon and
go through Sunday night, but why
not a week? This isn't my opinion
alone, but the opinion of several
women and even several men. Can't
something be done? We have three
whole weeks yet to make the desirable change." C. E.
For One And All
We pass the suggestion along to
i Keys "for better or worse." Would
imagine that if the majority of stu-- !
dents wanted more than two days
'
for the chase, it could be arranged.
Someone complained of the last
news story that appeared concerning the day. that it seemed to apply
only to fraternities and sororities.
Which is not at all true. If only one
or two groups enter into the day. it
will fail. The success will depend
upon every group.

rules that are being put into effect
at the girls' dormitories. You said
you wanted specific cases. Then
here they are: The girls are not
allowed on the bridge with housecoats on and may not even go over
to get their mail in a housecoat. I
want to know what's immoral about
a housecoat?

also another rule which slates that
the girls may spend only two nights

Tills is ridiculous! College girls are
supposed to have enough sense by

fairly well and do not need a lot
of rules fit for grammar school
children.

In their final regular season showing Saturday night in Aiumni gym.
the Cats turned on a race-horoffense to thoroughly shellac Vanderbilt by a

slow start that found Vandy jumping into an early 1 lead, the Cats
took the front and were never taxed as they racked up their 8th successive win.
Vanderbtlt's fast offense seemed
to have the Wildcats puzzled for a
few minutes but then Kentucky
started a drive that was as relentless as Mississippi flood water and
