Cross Unit, formed last spring. During
the short time of their work, about
fifty pairs of socks were made and
several dozen garments; much more is
expected of the chapter this coming
year.
Miss Louise Turner, the president,
reports the sale of a handsome sap
phire and diamond ring that was do
nated last March by Mrs. Stoner, of
Mt. Sterling. This ring was sold at
the trotting track October 3, bringing
$210. This fund will serve as a financial foundation, but the enthusiastic
members are planning other ways of
increasing the fund.
Dean Cooper has given over to the
unit the largest room in the Agriculture building, which is situated on the
third floor. It is for the sole use of
the girls for the duration of the war.
President Frank L. McVey allowed ?50
for decoration and furnishings and
Miss Madge Lamareaux, who has had
training in interior decoration, has
agreed to help Miss Turner furnish the
room as an attractive headquarters,
where the girls can gather to sew and
knit, or even rest during the day. The
exact location will be advertised by
Red Cross flag floating from one of
the windows, while posters will be put
up over the campus, made under the
supervision of Miss Beak, of the Art
Department.
All he University leaders are deeply
interested in this organization and
have been most generous to the girls
in their efforts, but the
of each girl in school is necessary
for good work. Moreover, while ?50
is a generous allowance, it can hardly
be expected to suitably equip so large
a room. Comfortable seats are needed
for the workers and there must be
work tables and drawers for storing
materials. Every Lexington girl and
those girls who have friends living in
Lexington are urged to borrow rockers, rugs, attractive pillows, etc. Many
people who usually store their porch
sets for the winter, might bo glad to
lend them for such a cause. All donations will bo welcomed, but furniture
lent to the girls will bo appreciated
and well cared for.

Students not members of S. A.

and Maxwell Hall, must not attend
University classes until order of.

"War Alms," is a course of required
study for all S. A. T. C. men in every
University, ordered by the War Department August 27, 1916. About 800
for this
students have registered
course at the University of Kentucky,
constituting about twenty sections,
which means a class in "War Aims"
every hour of each day. President
Mc.Vey has entrusted the organization
of this course to a committee consisting of Professors Tuthill, chairman,
Wiest, Calhoun and Butt.
Doctor Tuthill Explains.
Doctor Tuthill is quoted as making
the following explanatory statements
regarding the purpose of "War Aims."
"The general order, divided the year
into quarters of twelve weeks each,
the first, or fall term, devoted to the
background of the war, including both
the remote and immediate causes of
the war; the second term devoted to
the progress of the war or current
events, and the third term to be devoted to the study of physiological
aspects of the war with emphasis on
government and the principles of government. However, the War Department has not been exacting in defining
these divisions, but allows each institution to present the subject in the
manner best suited to Its conditions.
University The Instrument.
"Quito rocently a further order
classified the registrants according to
ago, apparently with the idea that
those who have passed thoir twentieth
birthday may be called sooner than
those eighteen years of age. This
consideration has made use of the University of Kentucky in an endeavor
to present all three phases of study
in a concise manner boforo the Christ

to reclassify the sections containing

the Perdue game of 1915. Kentucky
played with midseason snap and
punch, and altho outweighed fifteen

played splendid ball, the entire line

Riddle handled the team well and

ARMY & NAVY TEAMS

Much enthusiasm is being aroused
over the series of football games between the Army and Navy sections of
the S. A. T. C. Over thirty men have
reported for each team and both sections declare they will walk rough
shod over the other. The officers are
showing great interest and will do all
they can to get a winning team for
their section.
Practice will be held on Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons at
4 o'clock, and those wanting a suit
should report to Athletic Director
Boles. No men who are on tho 'varsity
team will be allowed to play, but if
any new men show first team caliber,
they will be transferred to tho 'varsity. Tho games will start as soon as
tho teams are in tho proper condition,
ami will be played on Monday afternoons.
Sinco there aro many men in both
sections who have formorly played
football, first class teams should bo
turned out, however tho lack of experience should keep no one from coming out, as thoro will bo a chance for
everyone to play and to mako tho team.

On the first play of the second quarter, Riddle carried the ball around end
for thirty yards. On the next play,
Riddle hurled a forward pass to Bart-lebehind the end zone, who eluded
several tacklers, and placed the ball
between the goal posts. Bland missed
goal. In less than two minutes, Kentucky scored again. Indiana received
the kickoff, was hold for three downs,
then punted to Kentucky. Riddle got
away for a wide run, then shot a forward pass to Dishman, who dodged
several Crimson tacklers and made a
beautiful run for thirty yards for a
touchdown. Bland kicked goal. The

"One cannot refrain from comparing

Matriculation Lectures was a course
of study open to the freshman class
of the University at the beginning of
the fall term. Since the members of
the S. A. T. C. found it impossible to
arrange their schedules in accordance
with the hours outlined for this course,
after the recent classification regarding young men twenty years of age,
the following notice posted on various
bulletin boards about the campus,
"Matriculation lectures for arts and

that the newest additions to the student-body
have yet to look forward to
this study of campus knowledge and

Call On Us

Cheer up boys, for there are now indications that no dry zone will be
established around military training
units in Lexington. The decision rests
upon the Department of Justice. The
Commission on Training Camp Activities will put before the Attorney General and the Department of Justice,
the question as to whether such training units as the S. A. T. C. constitute military camps. Altho appealed
to before, this department has, as yet,
issued no orders to establish dry zones
around these camps.
District Attorney Thomas D. Slat-terstated Saturday, that should the
dry zone be established, all saloon
keepers will be given reasonable notice by the Department of Justice.
Such a zone would close nearly every
saloon in Lexington. It is the general
belief that student training units will
not be classed as strictly military
camps. The character of the college
is a big factor in the determination of
the nature of these training camps.
Since all saloons must be closed July
1, of next year, the Department
of
Justice Is rather lenient towards the
saloon-keeper-

era in the aviation service of the
United States, and both are now on
the fighting front in France, where
they are rendering valiant service.
They are Captain K. O. Pulllam, Jr.,
J. M. A., United States army, com
mander of the Third Aviation Center,
now stationed at Issoudun, France,
and Ensign Harold Pulllam, formerly
instructor in the aviation branch of
the naval service at Pensacola, Fla.,
who is also now In France ready for
duty. Both are graduates of the University of Kentucky and have made
splendid records.
In a recent issue of the Plane News,
published by the United States Air
Service of the American Expeditionary Force, Captain K. Q. Pulllam, Jr.,
writes on "Acrobacy or Trick Flying,"
together with an elaborate chart show-ln- g
all of the "curves of the aviation
game," which Is receiving most favor
able comment from all of the Allied
aviators and which has been adopted
as part of the curriculum for the instruction of American flyers.
The editor of Plane News prefaces
the article with this comment: "Captain Pulllam's article is herewith
printed by authority of Air Service
Headquarters and is considered probably the most complete and compre
hensive treatise on acrobacy yet pub
llshed."
Captain Pulllam says: "Acrobacy
or trick flying is as necessary to the
fighter of the air as a knowledge of
his gun mechanism is to the infantryConsequently such trick flyman.
ing has been found necessary to pre
pare a flyer for combat and is now
taught in the training schools.
"The object of acrobacy is to pro
duce each dangerous condition of
flight that a pilot may be expected
to encounter and to teach how to meet
them. Only in this way is It possible
for a pilot to become the master of
his machine. Thus in a short period
devoted to intentional acrobacy, a
pilot acquires the confidence in his
ability to meet all emergencies that
no amount of ordinary flying can produce, and as a result he finds it possible to devote his entire time to his
work of warfare, the function of piloting being performed instinctively.
"At a field where trick flying Is
taught every student is given individual attention and instruction. Only one
'stunt' at a time is explained, which
must be ropeated by the student, and
unless every movement is thoroly understood, ho Is not permitted to attempt the work."
Captain
Pulllam
describos
the
"Vrille," "Roversement," "Immediate
Turn," "The Barrel," "Vertical Virago," "Slide Slip," "Vrille Turn," "The
Loop," "Tail Slide," and other phases
of trick flying.
Captain Pulllam, who is a master
of all of those features of acrobacy,
uses a French monoplane, which has
a speed of 153 miles an hour. As com
mander of the aviation instruction cen
ter, ho has some thirty or forty of
ficers and men uuder him, and tlioy
are put thru n course of instruction
intended to make them expert flyers.

part of his duties is laying out the
work for tho flyers, and leading them
in airscoutlng expeditions, which ho
frequently does. Prior to going to
France, Captain Pulllam did air patrol duty over London and along the
English coast, when German raiders
were engaged In bombing English
towns, but for the past year, he has
been in actlvo service in France.
Quite a number of times he has been
on air raids over the German lines,
and according to information received
by his family here, has been in his
fast monoplane as far over German
or 100
battle front as seventy-fiv- e
miles.
A

His intensive study of all phases of
airplane service and his Initiative In
working out and putting into practice
many of the best features of acrobacy,
has made him an authority on aejial
.fighting, and his ability as an Instruc
tor is regarded very highly by the
commander of American Overseas Air
Service.
Both Captain Pulllam and his brother, Harold, are members of the American Aero Club.

WORKMEN SCARCITY
DELAYS IMPROVEMENT
No doubt it is very apparent to the
faculty and the students that the work
of remodeling and making Improvements on and In the various buildings
on the campus has been progressing
somewhat slowly. On inquiring into
the matter the Kernel learned that
the lack of progress was due entirely
to the lack of workmen and the scarcity of material needed in the making
of the much needed improvements.
Nevertheless within the past week
many improvements have been completed, and no doubt, within a very
short time the whole work of remodeling will have been finished. The
main building, in which most of the
work of remodeling is being done, will
be finished within the next three
weeks, and from all indications many
improvements are in the course of
construction. The barracks and buildings connected with the barracks, will
bo completed, ready for occupation,
within one week. The construction of
tho fourth barracks is now well under
way and tho few smaller buildings
adjoining tho barracks have practically been completed. Work on tho central heating plant will bo started this
week and it Is tho Intention of those in
chargo of this work to have the heat
ing plant ready for operation before
tho cold weather sets in.

THE VICTORIOUS WILDCATS
(o)
"We came, we saw but Caesar said it, so you know
the rest," is the thot of the telegram sent back to the
University by the Wildcat coach at the end of the game
with Indiana last Saturday afternoon. The story of the
victory and the team is published in other columns of
the Kernel. Here, credit is placed where credit's due.
In the vernacular of the gridiron, the basic elements
of a good football team are beef, speed, courage, and intelligence for the individual players. Teamwork, which
cements eleven men into one team, and' a driving, intelligent coach, who can bring out the best that is in each
man, are absolutely indispensable. Kentucky has that
coach. He is Andy Gill, recently of a northern university, but now a
Wildcat. Kentucky has that
team. It is easily the best in the State and should not
shy at anything in the South.
To defeat a football team representing the University of Indiana, a member of the "Big Nine," is a victory
which does the Wildcats proud. Yet the team does not
appear too confident of future victories. Each man
knows, however, that fight and spirit such as that displayed last Saturday in Indiana will not be denied victory. How many students now in this University saw
that memorable defeat of Purdue in the fall of 1915?
The Indiana game, the writer hears, was just as good.

NO DELAY IN S. A. T. C. TRAINING.
(o)
America is in the clutch of influenza. The hiss of
the kaiser snake is heard. Poisoned fangs ready to
strike are hid behind a thin peace "offer."
As to influenza authorities of this University and
officers of the S. A. T. C. are making an earnest effort to
wipe it out. Male students not members of the S. A.
T. C. and girl students
to Patterson or
Maxwell halls have been ordered by President Frank L.
McVey to discontinue classes in the University until the
disease has been erased in Lexington. All S. A. T. C.
men are regularly inspected in an effort to detect at once
any cases of "th'flu."
Instead of a let-u- p in S. A. T. C. training, however,
there is an increase in intensity. Work is beginning to
go faster and easier. Drill is getting sort of snappy.
Raw recruits are in the first stage of "soldieritis."
To put a finish to the kaiser, members of the S. A.
T. C., ignoring the peace plea for beggar's peace plea it
truly is, continue to train. Each wants to be a spike in
the heel of the boot which is going to crush the serpent
head and shut the wicked, gleaming eyes forever.

Private Zimmio Zane, the Kentucky
wise owl of the S. A. T. C, Bays: "This
U. K. campus is a dangerous place for
young ladies at night. The other night
soldier's voice in the darkness
shouted out to the new guards Just
going on duty: 'There ain't nobody
what's got no authority over you
Every man is master of his own post.' "
