Samuel Stone Bush, 65, prominent realtor. Jumped from a
tenth floor corridor window of
the Heyburn building, at Fourth
Street and Broadway, in the
heart of the downtown business
district here to his death today.
The spectacular suicide horrified scores of office workers who
saw the body hurtle throtigh the
air and land on the roof of a
addition inside an inner court.
Coroner John M. Keanpy after
investigating the tragedy,
and
finding Bush's coat carefully
folded laid on the floor beside
the window, returned a verdict
of suicide.
Bush assisted In the construction of a transportation line over
the famed Chilkoot Pass in
Alaska in 1897 and was the
builder of the first modern office building on Fourth street
here. He devoted himself also
to acquiring and building railway and power-ligproperties
in Georgia, Tennessee, the Gulf
Coast and elsewhere, which he
later disposed of at profit. At
one time he was publisher of the
Southern Magazine.

ARE rROFS "NUTS"?

tucky boasts of having a mens" glee
club. It is extremely regretful to be
compelled to state, however, that
the University glee club Is little
known among the people of the
commonwealth, and even to students of the University itself.
The trouble lies mostly in the
organization and supervision of the
musical organization Itself. There
are no requirements necessary to
become a member of the group. So
long as the candidate is able to
carry a tune and sing a scale, he

the usual amount of time to Instill
even mediocre Interpretations of
choral renditions the average glee
club patron likes to hear. What is
to be done about It?
First, a strict set of entrance
rules must be made; no glee club
in the country that is prominent
today does not operate minus rigid
rules for entrance. Second, the Job
as director should be given to some
competent individual who Is not ex
crssively burdened with the main
tenance of so large portion of the
music department. Professor Lamp
ert has done the best to be expect
ed under the circumstances. He has
worked as hard with the glee club
as his other duties would allow.
Combine the fact that he is busy
with other duties along with the
fact that he is working with a little experienced group of young men
regarding vocal, or even ' instrumental training, and we readily see
that we are expecting the impossible.
With the somewhat meager backing given the Men's Glee club the
University, and with little responsibility of its being increased in the
near future, only part of the needed
revision can be brought about immediately.
Men petitioning
for
membership in the club should be
required to have had at least two
years of some musical training
Upon giving the audition, a committee composed of the three ranking members of the music depart
ment, or of local vocal teachers
should be called upon to decide the
capabilities of the candidate to
function in the glee club.
The University of Kentucky is in
dire need of means to spread good
will and advertisement
among the
people qf the state. They have
shown this interest in such man
euvers by the establishment of the
Committee of 240. Why not con

Perhaps wo ore plunalng ourselves Into a soothing caldron when
we attempt to boll out a pertinent
answer to this Impertinent question: Are college professors "nuts"?
But, because this charge has been
made, ve leel Justified In present
ing student opinion on the matter.
It Is also hoped that by this means
we may reawaken the interest,
which appears to bo doziiiR. of the
faculty in our editorial columns.
First, we must determine whether
we, whose association
with our
teachers is only In the classroom at
Infrequent periods, are qualified to
sit in Judgment on the case before
us. A Judge should be impartial
unprejudiced,
honest; he should
know and understand all facts pertaining to both sides. Certainly we
are not fitted to criticize any man's
private life, and therefore we con
fine our observations to evidence
in the classrooms alone, which may
or may not absolve our professors
of the charge.
Professors are listed according to
their eccentricities, as: the slave- driver, who tries to force learning
upon us; the altruist, whose hon
eyed attitude of Idealism Is a trifle
too sweet; the wit, who thrusts his
little spear at the slightest provocation; the reminiscer, that gentleman who glories In recounting his
boyhood pranks; the mildewed Romeo, whose feeble fatherly flattery
falls on foolish flappers.
Then there is the prof who is
burdened by wisdom; the crooner,
g
whose
monotones produce slumberous results; the temperamental satellite, that Individual
who flashes brilliantly but not consistently; the cynic, for whom everything and everybody is meat for
his chopper; the model, from whom
we learn just how the wrong things
should be done correctly; the egotist, who by example teaches us not
to brag about ourselves; and, of
course, there is that lovable old
fellow, the absent-minde- d
professor.
