Athletic Intrigue?
Respected Mentor Awarded
Rookie Contract
THE r,si social weeks students, iilutnni, and all
in the welfare of tlic University anxiously
have been awaiting Cioadi Adolph Rupp's decision in
r
the matter of the
contract offered him. Today
they may again rest content. Thank vou. Coach Rupp.
for signing your contract and showing our loyalty to the
University.
Notwithstanding the fact that Coach Rupp signed his
contract, The Kernel sincerely feels that in olfcring this
agreement to a coach who has consistent
proven his ability to produce superior teams, the Athletic
Council has issued an unwarranted rebuke.
The Athletic Council was established to supervise athletics at this University. It was to represent the students
and alumni, and in its function it was to relied their
opinions. The Kernel feels that in issuing this apparent
lack of confidence, it was voicing the opinion of neither
the students nor the alumni.
It has been mentioned that Coach Rupp's coniiail
was written for but a year because of the new ruling whic h
goes into effect this year, and which requires such action.
This ruling may be advantageous in the selection of assistant coaches, but in the appraisal of coaches of major
sports, it is not justifiable, Basketball at this University
receives L1r wider acclaim than any other spoil. It is as
equally a major sjoit as football.
The football coach is allowed more than one year in
which to develop his team. Should not the basketball
coach be given an equal opoituniiy
moreover since he
has proven his ability to produce superior teams?
This move on the part of the Council has made it evident that it, like several other organizations on this campus, must be reformed. Their present action has disclosed

New Records Set In 180 And
240 Yard Relays; Morris
Is High Scorer

In continuation of The Kernel's policy of experimenting
with type and style in the
head-lin- e
dress of the paper,
this issue of The Kernel is
being set in Cheltenham, old
style type.
Any comments or criticisms
will be appreciated by the editors.

Breaking two pool and state records, the Wildcat swimming team
barely eked out a two point margin
of victory over the Eastern mermen
to retain their Kentucky intercol
leglate swimming title Saturday
night in the Morehead College pool.
The two teams went into the last
free style relay,
event, the
tied and with Morehead only four
points behind them. Swimming this
event in superb style the 'Cat team
broke the record and won the event
and meet.
Sherman Hinkebein, captain and
coach of the Blue and White mer
men, relinquished his chances of
repeating as high point man, the
honor he took at the meet in Kicn- mond last year, by putting his abili
tv where it was most needed, in
the relays. As it was, Charles
Morris of Morehead carried away
this honor by winning the three
events in which he was entered
Hinkebein won the only event in
which he entered as an individual,
and both relay teams that he swam
on were victorious.
New records were made by the
med
Wildcat team in the
free style
ley relay and the
relay.
The free style event was
won in 2:14.4 and the 'Cat swim
mers covered the distance in the
medley event in 1:58.5.
This victory in the state meet left

any other Kentucky outfit during
the year. All but one of the teams
entered in the meet had already
been defeated individually by the
'Cat swimmers and all of them together could not turn the trick last
Saturday night. The final score
showed Kentucky with 45 points,
Eastern with 43, Morehead 35, and
Berea 25. The University of Louisville could not send a team.
After the meet was finished, trophies were presented to the winners
Individual gold

contract tendered him two weeks
ago by the University Athletic
Council.
Coach Rupp could not be reached
by The Kernel last night for a
statement or for comment.
During his term as mentor of the
Wildcats, Coach Rupp has attained
nation-wid- e
recognition by developing teams which have been victorious in 122 games while losing 21.
His teams won the Southeastern

season, while they won the conference championship on the season's

Investigation shows that the graduating students, each pool a certain amount, and direct it
toward the cost of editing and printing the
.book. The only requirement for a man to attain recognition in the index is the payment of
the entry fee. And, of course, everyone pays it.
The book is published under the supervision of
a faculty member and it bears the name of the
college.
Offhand, it appears that the college approves
of all of its graduates; that each one is the answer to a foreman's prayer. In reality, the college does not approve of all of its graduates and
it would not recommend everyone if the selection system were more strict. The law of averages will rule that some of the entries are incompetent. Should an incompetent be hired on
the grace of his photo and the conviction of his
biography, then the college is in for a rap when
the man fails. In this way the reputation of the
college may be unjustly damaged.
Lastly, the mortar board sale is evidence of
the strengthening menace that a college man is
schooled solely in technicalities rather than in
a comprehensive curriculum. Under the presculture is becoming of infinitesimal

Judging by a modern standard which seems to be
accepted by some of our very best people, everyone
who returns home after a year of university life is
trying to "show off." If they happen to have added
a word or two to their vocabulary, they are inevitably
classified as "Joe College," and if they have been so
unfortunate as to have learned anything, they are
termed "know-- it all." Now we shall not allow this to
be our fate, we shall act incredibly dull and let them
say, "Well, college didn't do him any good, he's still
dumb as ever!" The drug store cowboys shall not
rationalize their loafing by using us as an example!

Obituary

With this chapter of The Kernel
comes the tentative finish of the
Vice of the People, a column in
the University student newspaper.
If I were not in a happy mood I'd
like to say alot of things about all
the unusual, broad minded people,
who live on this Main Street three
or four hours a day.
A year ago this May I was appointed to the
of a
column which was to appear in
The Kernel and was to dedicate itself to the reporting of the "inoffensive shortcomings and the happy relationships between The Boys
and The Girls in
