the score, they didn't do it, but everybody was satisfied with the whole trip
and proud of the way the Wildcats
held the Tennessee lads. Upon arriving in Lexington all who made the
trip were met with demands of "tell

been doing ever since.

In ihe deep sympathy stirred by
the terrible situation of the Christians
in Asia Minor, it must not be forgotten that the students of Russia,
and Central Europe uire depending
on the students of America for help
through the present winter.
Immediately after ithe news of the
evacuation of Smyrna reached New
York the executive committee of the
Council Fund
Student Friendship
wired $2,000 to be sent to student relief
representatives in Athens for
these students. This must be only
the first of many generous gifts for
relief of students. Last year about
$16,500 was expended for relief of students in the Near East. This work-iadministered through the American
Relief Administration and the results
have been gratifying.
C. A. HollowclT who studied the
student conditions in Europe last year,
has told us of the great need of relet.
The foreign work of the Y. M. C.
A. has grown in the last few years. It
is doing a world service in bringing
American ideals into the life of other
countries of Europe and Asia. No
local organization receives anything
from what you contribute. You are
doing it for the students and young
men of the world who are to be the
leaders of world affairs in our generation.

Christmas comes and we are
about to go to our homes where there

SPORT WRITERS HAVE
ORGANIZED NEW CLUB
The Annonymous Cudgel, an organization of the sport writers of .the University, was organized ait a meeting
in the Alpha Zeta room in the library Monday night. The club was
formed for the purpose of the discussion of methods in writing sports. In
view of the fact that more "stuff" is
written by Anonymous than by anyone else, the club, or cudgel, has been
named in honor of that individual.
Meetings will be held the first and
third Tuesday nights in every mouth
Every member of the organization wil
be an officer. The Cudgel has a very
extensive program mapped out for
the coming months. .Members
