The English department of the

with the Greek tragedy, "Medea".
The play was especially translated
by a graduate student of the Ancient

Lolo Robinson, associate director,
and O. G. Brockett, technical director of Guignol. It is to be produced and directed by Wallace

Revenue Is Essence
The first play of this nature to
be undertaken by the department,
it deals in essence with the terrible revenge exacted br Medea on
her husband Jason. Medea had committed numerous murders to save
her husband's life, and he reciprocated by announcing his impending
marriage with another woman.

the manner in which she plans to

Thevastly improved football program at the University of

a good example of the work of the Lexington Chamber of Commerce and other civic groups here.
An isolated University could hardly hope to field such a football team as UK did in 1949. Without the continued support of
Lexingtonians, the Wildcats would, in all probability, still be the
welcome mat of the Southeastern Conference.
While a great deal of credit must go to the coaches and
players who carried the Blue and White into the Orange Bowl
all of us know that without the help of outside organizations and
individuals, the present successful program could not have been
launched and maintained.
In looking back over the best football year in the history of
the University, it is well for us to rememljer and appreciate the
work of all those who gave their time and efforts for the cause of
better football at UK.
