Helen Wills Moody
Keeps UK Tennis
Courts In Shape
Helen Moody is a permanent resident of the University of Kentucky. She isn't known by many
students and lives a very quiet life
Just across from the men's dormitories. That is, her life is quiet
until she starts to move when she
groans, huffs and puffs in a manner which is audible over a good
bit of the University's acres.
Helen Moody is the name given
to the University steam roller. Helen's life is not all a simple roll,
however. On last Halloween night
an attempt was made by a group
of students to fire the big roller up
and drive it about the town. Only
the timely intervention of a campus policeman prevented the machine from being destroyed as the
amateur boiler fireman shoveled
coal to it.
Helen's job is to keep the University tennis courts in perfect
condition. She works the hardest
at this season of the year when
many grinding feet chop the earth
to bits. Often one court is ready
for the roller before the last one
is finished.
But Helen doesn't
complain, she knows that a rolling
stone gathers no moss, but she Isn't
supposed to gather moss, her job is
to roll the tennis courts.

"There seems to be a spirit in
America that has some resemblance
to the renaissance in Italy and
France during the 15th and 16th
centuries," said Dr. Frank L. McVey, president of the University,
in an address on "Streamlining In
Arts and Literature," at the opening convocation of the first term
of the current summer session this
morning at 10 o'clock in Memorial
hall. Dr. Jesse E. Adams, director
of the summer session, presided and
Introduced the University president.
President McVey defined streamlining as an attempt to adapt a
thing to its use, and carried this
idea of the necessity of streamlining, that is adapting a thing to its
most perfect use. Into the field of
art,

literature,

architecture

and

music.

The speaker pointed out that the
architecture which generations of
people have admired and adhered
to was built, not from the architect's imagination but from the
needs and conditions of the times,
and said "that streamlining in
architecture will result in the elimination of the things that sentiment has carried through a long

period of time.
"In America there must come a
vast change in construction as In
other fields, where the painter is
trying for new expression, the musician a new way of saying something, and the poet is expressing
the spirit of the times in a more
careful selection of ideas and
words," said President McVey.
"Amazmg things have happened
In literature," continued the speaker, "there has been a change of
emphasis, a removal of Inhibitions,
and a picking and choosing of
words, as typified in the work of
Zona Oale, with definite, clear-c- ut
expression as the result."
"We are held down to a great
extent by the traditions of the past,
and no renaissance can come to
America unless we catch the spirit
of it and have the strength to carry
it through. In this relation it is
easy to see the importance of
University, which must recognize
the spirit when it comes and have
the ability to interpret that spirit.
If this University or any other
university does this there is nothing to stand in the way and the

Webb was inconvenienced very considerably by inquisitive reporters.
He mentioned particularly one very

Indian huts, which had Just been
uncovered. He came upon a small
house or room in which there was
a fireplace and a simple chair or
seat. Before he could get away, he
was caught by the guards and taken to the officers tent. Professor

When the registration office
closed yesterday at 5 p. nu lj624
persons, a decrease of 89 from the
first term enrollment of last year,
had entered the University. This
year's
enrollment becomes the
second largest in summer school
history.
Yesterday was the last day upon
which entrance could be made Into
the University for the first term.
A full week was allowed for registration and no late fee was charged.
The first term will be over July 18.
While the attendance figures
are somewhat lower than those of
last summer's first term, it Is no
disappointment to officials, as last
high registration was
summer's
due in part to the fact that requirements
for teachers' certificates were due by September 1.
and many entered school to fulfill
these requirements.
It is not known at present the
distribution of students in the various colleges, but it is thought that
the greatest increase will be In the
Graduate School where a recent
legislative act made it compulsory
for all upper dlvison and graduate
work in education to be taken.
Regular
and visiting faculty
members, numbering 175, are on
the campus this summer teaching
400 courses.
