Governor Stanley and the board proceeded to organize by electing the following officers: R. C. Stoll vice chairman, Wellington Parick, Secretary,
and John R. Downing, Treasurer.
On report of a nominating committee, the following members were
elected on the executive committee:
R. C. Stoll, P. P. Johnston, Jr., R. G.
Gordon, R. P. Ernst, and J. M. Elliston. Mr. Patrick succeeds Mr. Grehan
on the latter's request that he be relieved to give all his time to the Department of Journalism.
The President made a report to the
board consisting of a resume of what
is going on at the University at the
present time. He reviewed (I) the
financial situation at the University,
indicating that the University will receive from the State this year more
than $200,000 in excess of that of last
year. The income from the State and
Federal Government to the University
will be approximately $450,000 from
the General Fund. The Experiment
Station will receive from the State
and Government $185,000. The Extension fund from the State and Government will amount to $199,6,17.22. The
Public Health fund will add $18,000,
and $42,000 will be received from the
Government for special training of the
men now at Camp Buell.
The total estimated income for the
University and Experiment Station, including Extension work, Public Health
work, and military training of drafted
men will be approximately $940,000.
The President indicated in a general
way what the University expects to
accomplish in the way of construction
for the coming year Owing to difficulties in securing necessary labor and
building material, the building program for the coming year will be curtailed. It will bo confined to the repairing of a few buildings, including

John H. Downing, chairman of the

chairmanship for all Kentucky, to two
days ago when he was ready to report
to the national headquarters that Ken
tucky was ready for the second Red
Cross drive of the year, which will
start the last part of this month.
Mr. Downing explained the immense
volume of work that so great a drive
will entail, and read the names of the
executive committee he has appointed
from every section of the State to aid
him in this work. After the appointment of committees the work of dividing the quota of $900,000, which has
been alloted to Kentucky, among the
counties of the State, was accomplished, with the appointment of a chair
man in each county. This took about
three weeks to accomplish. Everything
has been arranged now, however, ex
cept for the appointing of some of the
womens' committees, all is in readiness for the big drive.

Emery Wells, a graduate of the
University, now a first Lieutenant of
Engineers with the American army in
France has written an interesting letter to his parents Mr. and Mrs. S. P.
Wells, Woodland avenue.
Lieutpnant Wells' letter in part is
as follows:

whom he omjptetcly bewildered Jim Park, has joined the
Columbus, Ohio, team of the American
Association, where he seems to have
repeated the stunt.
In his first game with the big
league team, played against Indianapolis, Park showed up well. He held
the Indiana team to three hits and
he himself drove a hit that brought in
the winning run for his own team.
This is an auspicious beginning and
Jim's friends are all tickled at his
prospects for the season. He will
leave the Columbus team sometime in
June to train for the air service of
the United States army.

CATS IN TWO GAMES
LAST PART OF WEEK
The Wildcats are slated to play two
games this week. They meet Ken
tucky Weslyan Thursday afternoon on
Stoll Field and Georgetown Saturday
on the home field.
Wesleyan has bowed to the Wild
cats once and the Tigers of George
town have been scratched twice by
the same cats. The Kentucky play
ers are expecting to "pull" two per
feet repeaters in the games for this
week. The contests will be spicy and
full of pep, however.
McClellan will start against Wes
leyan Thursday afternoon with Tho
mas catching. This battery has play
ed well all season and will make it
self felt. Lasley will pitch against
Georgetown.
