consecutive victories. The game will
be called at 8 p. m. in the Alumni

The fans are promised the best

The Wildcats barely edged out
Alabama last week in their most
desperate battle this year. Up to
that game Kentucky had not been
extended and had coasted througn
all their games with a safe mragin.
Alabama had not been defeated until then. The closeness of the
game can be understood when one
realizes that the lead changed sides
eight times during the contest.
All the sports authorities agree
that Alabama and Kentucky are by
far the best basketball teams In the
South this year. "The game will be

"The Green Pastures." nationally
famous play by the well known author. Marc Connelly, will be presented in Lexington at the Woodland auditorium, Thursday, February 22, for matinee and night performances.
The play, hailed by
critics as one of the greatest since
the production of "Ben Hur," won
the Pulitzer prize for outstanding
excellence.

The theme of the story is based
on the delightful and entertaining
Southern stories contained in Roark
Bradford's book of "Old Man Adam
and His Chlllun." It depicts realistically and sincerely the life, customs, beliefs, superstitions,
and
idiosyncrasies of the simple but
deeply religious Negro of the Old
South.
Borne of the finest actors of the
profession are cast for the produc- tion. In the major role is Richard
accomB. Harrison, 69 year-ol- d
plished actor, whose reverent and
sympathetic portrayal of "The
Lawd" was hailed by critics and artists of the actors' profession as
one of the finest bits of acting done
in a long time . His performance
elevated him from obscurity to national prominence overnight.'
His supporting cast is particular
ly gifted, and is the same cast that
opened the play in New York three
years ago. This cast has never
been changed since the first produc
tion, with the exception of the role

THE CHII.D LABOR LAW
There Is now pending before the
Kentucky Legislature one of the
most important and
pieces of social legislation perhaps,
that ever has been considered by
that body. The Child Labor Amendment is the result of a long fight to
give fConrjess. the right' to regulate
the labor of children under the age
of eighteen ' Anyone who has ever
visited a factory where children were
employed or has ever seen small
childen selling papers on the streets
can readily, see the need for so vital
a piece of social legislation.
But despite the desperate need for
such a lawttere is considerable opposition to U. The opposition falls,
it seems; 'Into three classes: first,
those Who believe that this is essentially a state problem and should be
regulated as such; second, those who
think that the age limit is too high;
third, those who do not favor the
enactment of this law because of
their own selfish. Interests.
The first group, those who oppose
it on the ground that it is a state
matter, seem to have forgotten their
history. The states have been attempting to regulate this matter
since its 'inception but have failed
miserably, Most anyone will agree
that the federal government for
the, last several decades, has been
gradually .taklpg over a targe number of former duties of states. But
has not the administration of these
duties been very much Improved
since the federal government has
assumed them? . The answer must
quite pertinently be in the affirmative, then, this group pu's forth
'

This is considered a Christian
country and Kentucky is considered
a Christian state. Therefore we
should act as Christians. In answer
to the opponents of this law we ask
this very simple question, What is
there unchristian in protecting little
children from being exploited by a
selfish law?

REAL WILDCATS
We can not hope to say anything
in a laudatory manner concerning
the Wildcats and Coach Rupp that
has not already been said or that
will not be said by sports writers

and critics throughout the country,
but by omitting all superlatives save
one we can still surpass all other
extolling articles by stating that it
is our belief that we hava the best
basketball team and the best coach
in these United States right here at
Kentucky!
We do not base this statement
merely on the fact that the Wildcats
have conquered with comparative
ease every aggregation they have
met this season, for we can not overtook the fact their foes have been
largely confined to the Southeastern
conference. But even if there is a
quintet, or more than one, that Is
good enough to beat Kentucky, we
still would not of necessity have to
withdraw our statement. For, when
we speak of the best team, we mean
the organization that comes nearest
to working together to perfection,
with the material composing the
cogs of the machine taken Into
consideration.
There are doubtless many greater
individual stars In the country, for
after all our boys are quite normal
individuals. In respect to size, the
members of the majority of the
teams they have encountered this
season have had a decided advantage in stature. As far as 'iieer speed
is concerned, many players might
chow them up on the track. Even
in the art of hitting the basket they
might be surpassed, but when you
combine the qualities they do have,
and add the abilities of
passing,
and
guarding plus a
spirit,
you have an outfit that can stand

Rupp has used substitutes freely In
practically every game. It is not a
team built around one or two individual stars. It is a team where
every man has a part to play, and

plays it.
The type of game and spirit that
Coach Rupp has drilled into his boys
is exemplified in a statement from
the Associated Press report of the
Vanderbilt game that, "Although
Kentucky had the advantage
throughout, the Wildcats never relaxed their offensive drive, and the
crowd frequently applauded
the
Kentuckians."
It is doubtful too if any team in
the country has a better record for

the past four years than has Kentucky. Beaten by one goal in the
last minute of the game for the
championship the first year, their
chances for a perfect season spoiled
by influenza the second year, last
season they swept through to the
championship, and are headed in the
same direction right now.
