He added that only
the best students in geography are
accepted for membership.

SheersPopular
Says Specialist
Sheer fabrics, such as voiles,
georgette, and chiffon, are more
popular now than they have been
for several years, says Miss Verna
Latske, specialist in clothing at the
College of Agriculture and Home
Economics.
However, these fabrics present
problems for those who sew at home
and Miss Latzke offers these sug
gestions:
1. Select
patterns. Avoid bias and circular
skirts, as they will not hang evenly.
2. When cutting the fabric, lay it
along the edge of the table, or pin
to tissue paper to keep it on the
grain. Use extra sharp scissors, not
pinking shears, for such materials.
3. Make seams as inconspicuous as
possible. On curved edges such as
yokes, make false French seams
otherwise, use small French seams,
particularly on nylon. Seams on
with
voile may be
edges overcast.
4. To have seams which do not
pucker, the needle must be sharp,
the tension loose and the stitch
lengthened a bit. Stitch georgette,
nylon, and chiffon on tissue paper.
5. Use a fairly deep hem in the
skirt to make it hang well.

Professor Puts Hobby To Good Use
Lettering Coliseum Name Plates

teaches," is an appropriate descrip- tion of John Sherman Horine, associate professor of engineering drawing, whose hobby is lettering.
Professor Horine lettered the names
of the 12,174 Kentucky War Dead.
In whose honor Memorial Hall and
A

Memorial Coliseum were built.
Professor Horine was born in
Nicnoiasvuie, Ky., on January 24,
1887. Forty years ago, he came to
UK as an assistant instructor in

had held a position in the expert- mental department of the Fairbanks
Morse Company of Beloit, Wiscon- sm-

WHEN ASKED WHY he chose
lettering as a hobby. Professor Hor- ine smilingly replied that he Just
picked it up somewhere along the
line, and has been at it ever since,
He has lettered more than 3000 pro- fessional engineers licenses, and has
done many posters for convocations.
For years, he has lettered names of
engineering students on their slide
rule cases, and many engineering
graduates from Kentucky feel their
stay at Kentucky would have been
incomplete without the inscriptions.
PROFESSOR
HORINE lettered
2809 names in Memorial Hall, and
9265 names in Memorial Coliseum.
The work in the Coliseum required
to four
about three and one-ha- lf
to
hours daily from September
March. The professor said that the
tediousness of the work prevented
quick completion of the job. There

is room enough for about 200 more
names, and about fifty more than

the present number are ready for

inscriDtion
When Professor Horine was re
traced from his teaching duties to
work on the lists, he had an interest at heart other than the pride
he takes in his work. One name
among the Kentucky War Dead is
that of John Sherman Horine Jr.
No special type of lettering was
used in the memorial work. Pro- lessor Horine calls it the "Horine
Special." He said it is a modified
form of round writing which would
be very difficult to imitate,
irKS LETTER HOBBYIST is also
advisor to engineering
freshmen.
Academic advice is not the only
kind he gives to his students. Love
affairs and personal problems also
receive his attention. He was once
called to go the bond of a wayward
student. "Since then," he says, "I
have been advising my boys how to
stay out of the clink."
Professor Horine is nearing the
retiring age, but doesn't wish, to
retire. He said that after work
ing for so many years, he would
feel lost without his work.

A good statewide road system, improved school buildings, and adequate transportation for students in

Kentuckians. according to William
