The game was played 10,000 fans, before approximately many of whom were from Lexington and surrounding Blue Grass towns. A charity toss by Ralph Carlisle, forward, started the Kentucky scoring and gave the Wildcats the lead for the only time during the evening. Johnny Moir, the Ramforward, soon blers' tied the count with a free throw and the South Bend team was off, never to be threatened again. Not since the Kentucky team which won the Southeastern crown In 1933 have Kentucky fans witnessed such speed and smoothness In handling the ball. Very few of the scoring attempts made by the South Bend outfit failed. Taking the ball on the center Jump or off the blackboard, after a futile shot by a Kentucky player, the Notre Dame outfit would sweep down the floor and only relinquish the ball when they had scored. Walter Hodge, Kentucky sophomore guard, turned in the best floor game of any of the Wildcat players. Playing an alert game. Hodge followed the ball closely 8nd broke up many scoring attempts made by the Ramblers. After trailing at the halfway mark 28 to 9. the Wildcats began their comeback attempt after the rest period. With somewhat changed tactics the Kentucky team the South Benders 19 to 13 in the final frame but the margin the Ramblers had run up in the initial period was never seriously threatened. The closest the Big Blue team came to overhauling them was midway of the last half when the 'Cats came within 10 points for the Notre Dam; team. The outstanding player on the floor was Paul Nowak. the Ramblers' rangy pivot man. Besides being the high scorer of the game with 18 points, Nowak also held Thompson, Wildcat center, to four points before he was removed from the game via the personal foul route. Moir and Nowak are both outstanding candidates for berths this season. Hagan, who played before his home town crowd, was high scorer for Kentucky with eight points. Both he and Goforth, another Louisville boy who subbed at guard for the 'Cats, turned in good performances.

Alan-a-Da- le, Lewis Announces New Music Course Hand and Orchestra School To Begin First Semester Of Summer Session By MACK HUGHES The University of Kentucky basketball team will meet its third powerful foe within six days wnen they trot out onto the floor to play the Creighton quintet in the Alumni gymnasium tonight at 8 o'clock. Coach Adolph Rupp of the Wildcat team stated yesterday that there would be a big shake-u-p in the lineup of the squad. Jim th who turned in such a good performance at the Notre Dame game in Louisville will replace Captain Warfleld Donohue at one of the guard posts for the 'Cats. Coach Rupp was also pleased with the work of Jay Rice Walker and said that the former Blue Devil star would start the game in place of Thompson at the pivot post. Sophomore Walter Hodge will be at the other guard post while Hagan and Carlisle will again start at the forward positions. All five of these players turned in good performances in the Notre Dame game. This quintet showed improvement In their handling of the ball In the stiff work-ou- ts Coach Rupp held on Wednesday and Thursday. The Creighton squad ariived in Lexington around noon yesterday and after a brief rest held a short workout in the Kentucky gym. The Nebraskans come straight from a victory over a strong Washington University team. The Creighton team has played five games this season, winning three and dropping two. Their losses were to the powerful Ohio State and Minnesota quintets. Coach Ernest Hickey of the Blue Jays brought nine men on the trip to Lexington. The squad is made up mostly of new material but is reputedly better than the team that split a two-gaseries with the 'Cats last season. Coach Hickey is undecided on the starting line up. Last year the Wildcats ran over the Nebraskans, 68 to 38, in the opening game but on the following night the Blue Jays came back to defeat the Kentuckians. 31 to 29. The present series with the Creighton team started in the 1933-- 34 season when the teams split two games in a series played at Omaha. The Wildcats won both games played in Lexington in 1935. In past meetings the two teams have had interesting series. Both quintets usually play a fast game in their first nights' meetings with everyone scoring freely. In their second meetings the play was usually slowed to a walk and the score held low. This season only one game will be played.

HERE SHALL Filleting into the yeai 11)37, the j oplc of the United Stales have just reason to pause and take stock of their national wealth, nol nicastncd in trims of monetary giowth, but in (cunt of confidence and optimism. l'cace and piosK'tiiy should be svnoiiymoiis. Far, irtnovrd, al least geogiapliically, from the European cautchon, wr have indications of a new "cm of good feeling" on this hemisphere an eta motivated by the spiiit of the Ameiitan H'ople. Managing Editor Salyers 11. Nol only by giatelul interchange ol com Icons messages with South Ameiitan governments, but by diligent coopci.it ion with our neighbois in the All Ameiican Peace Conference at Buenos Aires, the Administration has shown a sKeial anxiety lo remove misunderstandings between our people and those living in the lepublics to the south of us. Predictions about the cotnse of industry and Hade aie nol in order here. More inqxulaiu than any of these tn.iteii.il things, highly as they are, is the attitude with which Ameiiea is preparing lo face the unknown of 1937. Unless all the signs arc misleading, this will be a spirit of hoK'fulness, of thaiity, of quickened humane instincts, of a desire to live Haceablv with all men, and of illimitable piide in lie achievements and prosccls of our country. There arc many things to deplore, but on the whole there is reason enough for all Americans to look forward with happy confidence to another twelve months of keeping step with the "gloiious music of the Ameiican LTnion." Cihtin' THE KERNEL ALL WOE Those inieresicd in the ailvaiKmiciit of academic liberty have been looking toward Madison, Wisconsin, where neslled comloi tably in their easy chairs, the regents ol the University of that state debate the fate of Dr. Glenn Frank, progiessivc president of that institution. The charges against Dot lor Frank, especially that of incompetence, hide a multiplicity of personal and political jxmits, most of which, the situation being what it is, aie not favorable to Frank. There are some questions The Kernel would like to ask. Why does the question hang fire over such a long eriod of time, receiving all the while, tons, of publicity, not entirely favorable, but publicity just the same? Last year, wasn't the athletic situation in regard to their football coach, almost parallel to tin's ase? Setifically, the charges against Frank, as listed by the piesident of the hoard of legents, arc as follows: (I) He has mismanaged finances and is in genetal a oor administrator; (2) he has lost the confidence of ihe fatuity and others with whom he must deal; ('5) lie has been lax and bungling in his executive anion, showing an incapability to make detisions; (I) he has slighted university allaiis to engage in speaking aiel writing of a nature not appiopiiatc to his office, but Jor the purpose of cnlaiging his income; (") he lias jK'rinitted questionable expenditures of public money for his household over and above his salary, and (i) he has been out of contact with univetsity affairs and has tlodged executive responsibility. Defenders of aiadcmit ficuloni might well bear in mind the lad that Glenn Flank is not to the politital left of Governor LaFollette, but tends stroutly to his light. Such being the case, it becomes a somewhat fantastic situation when the piesident of a slate univeisiiy might be ousted because he euibitieied a governor mwe uuli-ni- l than the president of such an institution. On the other hand, if as tlaimcd, the slate .id ministiation has never lesliicted Doctor Frank in his public ulteiaiues and wiitings, linn the thargc against the board of stifling academic freedom, may not be so sciious after all. '1 he situation at Wisconsin is one that might easily be ) ce liac led
