FOLLOW UNIQUE PLAN COMPETITION
.Seniors in the College of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering will design new shops, steam and electrical
laboratories and laboratories for testing materials, as thesis work, according to an announcement by Dean F.
Paul Anderson. This work will begin
March 1st and continue until the end
of the next semester.
A modern consulting engineer's office will bo organized by the twenty-twmembers of the class, who will
design the additions to Mechanical
Hall with a view of expediting the
work in the event the next Legislature appropriates sufficient money to
carry out the plans.
The Newlands bill, now before Congress, providing for engineering laboratories in every State, is expected to
accentuate the growth of the engineering schools of the University, and
Dean Anderson is making preparations for the expected increase.
Numerous improvements are being
planned. The boiler and electric power plants would be placed behind the
present building. Plans and specifications will also be made for converting part of the old shops and laboratories into class rooms, drawing
rooms and club rooms for the respective classes.

o

The Seniors will work on a seven-hou- r
schedule, with a time clock and
individual cards as in a modern consulting engineer's office.
The work
will be divided among the twenty-twmen in the class.
Altho members of the graduating
class in this college have undertaken
practical thesis work for several
years, this is the first attempt to solve
a local problem.
Dean Anderson will supervise the
work. Professor A. L. Wilhoito will
havo direct charge of the steam and
power plant work; Professors L. K.
Frankol and J. J. Curtis, architectural
work; Professors W. E. Freeman and
Ray Duncan, electrical designs and
specifications. Tho plans will include
complete equipment for Instruction in
tho mechanical and electrical course,
and will be arranged so it can be built
and installed in sections or as a whole.

Assignment of parts for "Tho Lion
and the Mouse," the play which the
Strollers will produce at the Lexing
ton Opera House this spring, was
made by Stage Manager John Marsh
early in the week, and rehearsals of
the first act were held Monday and
Tuesday nights at Patterson Hall. Ac
cording to Mr. Marsh, the material
this year is more plentiful and ap
pears more promising than in previous
years.
Among those who have had promi
nent parts in other Stroller plays and
who are out this year again are Em
ery Frazier, Tate Bird, Franklin Corn,
Preston Cherry and William Shinnick
and Misses Eliza Spurrier, Mary Tur
ner, Nancy Innes and Johnnie Cramer.
The remainder of the candidates for
parts have not had experience in col
lege dramatics, but all are showing
real stuff. The interest is especially
keen in the race for Shirley Rossmore,
the leading female role, with Mamie
iMiller Woods, Angela Morancy, Marie
Becker and Mildred Taylor working

NO ISSUE NEXT WEEK
There will bo no issuo of Tho
Kentucky Kernel next week, because tho staff is contemplating
deadly battlo with a number of
profs who havo threatened "no
quarter," and because tho students
who ruin their eyes reading the
paper will be as busy as the staff
Is. We believe that the battlo will
be fought out on its merits, with a
fair field and no favor, and it is
earnestly to be hoped that when
the dim January twilight falls like
a curtain of grey velvet over the
scene of turmoil the honors will all
lie with the students.

The Advisory Committee appointed
by the student convention in chapel
last Thursday morning has completed
its work and turned over to The Kentucky Kernel the reports of its investigation. The report, which recommends that the students give the extra $2.50 asked by the Athletic Committee, is printed below in full. The
Kernel does not care to comment on
the report, except to say that it seems
to be a full and fair discussion of the
problem of athletics here at the pres
ent time.
The Report in Full.
We, the advisory committee on ath

letic matters appointed by the student
body in mass assemblage Thursday,
January 11, 1917, respectfully submit
the following report:
Wo first Investigated the books and
records of the association to deter
mine whether or not there had been
of
dishonesty or misappropriation
funds. We found signed receipts or
canceled checks covering every item
listed as expenses in the financial
statement issued by the treasurer of
the Athletic Committee. This advis
ory committee further satisfied them
selves thoroly and unanimously that
each and every one of these expenses
is legitimate and reasonable.
We also traced the sources of in
come or tiie association anu tne
amount of the same and are unable
to discover any assets or receipts not
acknowledged in the financial state
ment mentioned above.
Our investigation of the unpaid bills
has proven that they are real and le
gitimate.
Furthermore, we were furnished by
tho treasurer oi complete financial
statement of tho association for the
year
We also had access
to all of the records of the association
since it has been under tho guidance
of the present faculty members of the
Athletic Committee. Our persistent
efforts in looking over these records
have failed to disclose any trace of
or misappropriation of
dishonesty
funds on tho part of any member of
the Athletic Committee.
Tho students having been notified
by posted notices and announcements
in tho local papers, an open meeting
was hold Tuesday morning, January
10, 1917. Dr. Tlgert, Profossor GUlls
and Earl Grabfoldor appeared in behalf of tho Athletic Committee. Tho
three assistant football manugers,
Messrs. Watson, Riley and Grainger,
were called in and consulted as to tho
manner of selling and taking tickets
at tho gate. All of theso witnesses

moral weakling, and urged his hearers
to keep out of the class that did these
things.
Mr. Chamberlain spoke on "Loyal
ty." The trouble with conditions at
the University, he declared, was due
,to a lack of respect of the students
for the faculty, of the faculty for the
students, and the students for each
other. "Everybody here thinks some
body else is trying to put something
over on him," he said, "and in order
to get our college spirit to do things
we must make it a
spirit."
In concluding the program, Professor Noe told the students how he regarded cheaters in exams, and said
that he had once refused to help a
man get a position because he had
caught him cheating and he knew
that man was not to be trusted at
anything.
