Home Economics Students
to Manage Cafeteria in
Basement of Main
Building

CENTRE AT DANVILLE TO ACCOMMODATE 250
Within the next few days the University will have a second cafeteria In
the attractive rooms, which are rapidly nearing completion in the basement of the Administration building.
This new venture will be in charge
of the Home Economics Department,
which for some time has served a
cafeteria lunch at the Experiment Station for the benefit of employes. After
the first of February three meals will
be served each day at moderate price's
by the fifteen girls who are taking
this course. They will receive credit
for almost entire preparation and serving of food. Since the Home Economics students are to be unusually busy
with the coming Farmer's Week, they
will only serve lunch for the present.
Two rooms formerly used by the
stenographic bureau of the University
have been renovated for use as dining
room and kitchen. Small tables have
been installed and the new cafeteria
will make a very pleasing appearance
when it is opened this week, with Its
newly painted woodwork and grey furniture. Plans are being made to accommodate 200 or 250 patrons at each
meal.
Each girl who Is taking work In the
department will be required to spend
six hours each week in the kitchen and
must serve some time behind the counter, for which she will be paid. Credit
for laboratory
work in the Home
Economics course will be given the
girls for the serving and preparation
of food and cafeteria management.
Meals will be served on the cafeteria
plan, and it is said that students will
be able to have breakfast for about 20
cents, a lunch for 25, and a good dinner for 45 cents. Placards suggesting
certain economical combination of
foods will be placed about the room
to assist patrons in selecting their
meals.
Any profits will be used to pay for
extra equipment of the rooms, and
when this is bought, will become a
fund for use of the department. The
cafeteria at the Experiment Station,
which is run for the same purpose and
at which only one meal is served has
yielded a steady profit, and it is
thought that the new one will do the

ing the Wildcats in a deciding game

Coming from behind like a Derby
favorite, the Wildcat basketball team
succeeded in tieing the Tigers from
Georgetown in the last half of the
game played Saturday night on the
gymnasium floor, but lost a moment
later when the deciding goal was
chalked up for the visiting aggregation. The score was 32 to 30.
The game was one series of thrills.
Georgetown played better basketball,
perhaps, than did the Wildcats, but
the latter made up for any advantage
by showing that familiar old fighting
spirit by which teams representing
this ' University are known. The Tiger quintet was composed of five men
who are entitled to 1918 service chevrons in basketball.
Three of them
were regulars last year.
Thomas, Dishman and Burnham.
For the Wildcats, Thomas, Dishman
and Burnham showed up best. The
displayed a better class
of goal tossing than he did in the
game against Wesleyan last week. Another game and he will be the fast
forward he was in 1918. Kentucky is
especially fortunate, however, in the
ability of her guards. Dishman played
one of the best games ever played by
a guard on the local floor. He and Burnham were always after the ball and
came to the top in a mixup like a bar
of ivory soap. Thomas got three field
goals and six fouls; Dishman and
Burnham got two field goals apiece..
Adams, Siler and Dean played best
basket ball for the visitors. They knew
the baskets on the local floor like
old friends and were never at loss in
finding them. Adams looped four field
goals in the first half, while Slier, at
center, found the goal three times.
"Dean, the other Tiger forward, became
especially accurate In the second half,
shooting four from the floor and lopping in one free one. The entire team
was good in floorwork. Their passes
were swift and accurate and their eyes
for the basket good.

With one victory and one defeat to
their credit, the Wildcats will breeze
over to Danville Saturday night, where
they will play the star quintet of Centre College. Practically the same

At a called meeting of the Strollers

It was agreed upon to produce this
year a iflrst claas modern comedy
which people would want to see not
merely because it was a University
affair, but because it was really worth
seeing.

Because of the. request made by
President McVey that the students of
the University refrain from any social
meetings or entertainments until after
the new term begins, the Strollers
were forced to abandon the
custom of holding amateur night
for the purpose of selecting new Strollers. For this year only they will resort to the plan of requesting all students desiring to become members of
the dramatic organization of the University to make application to tho
Strollers, stating tho experience they
have had in amateur production. It

MAN PRIZE FOR BEST SNAPS

Three men are now enrolled In the
University of Kentucky sent by the
Federal Board of Education of the
United States under the provision of
the Federal Board of Vocational Training which gives training to disabled
soldiers, sailors and marines who received injuries while in line of duty.
John H. Atkerson, formerly of the
U. S. S. Montana, now enrolled in the
Department of Agriculture of the University, is the first man to be sent to
the University.
Mr. Atkerson was graduated from
the Franklin High School of Simpson
county in June 1917 and on the following day enlisted in the United States
Navy and was sent to Newport, R. I.,
where he received his "boot" training in three weeks. He was assigned
to the U. S. S. Montana after he had
been sent to the Concentration Camp
at Portsmouth and made two successful crossings as a convoy to transports.
While "standing by" outside the drill
grounds of the Navy at Norfolk, Va.,
he received the injury to his left eye
which placed him in the class of men
who had sacrificed for their country.
The men aboard ship on the eighteenth
of February, 1918, was engaged in target practice, when "thru the carelessness of the men," a three inch shell
exploded killing two men and seriously injuring eight. Atkerson was standing near the gun and was knocked
unconscious. After remaining in the
Naval Hospital at Norfolk, for several
months he was sent to his home, blind
in his left eye, but a bigger man since
ho had suffered for his country.

Work on the 1919 Kentuckian has
begun! In the continual change of the
S. A. T. C. regime last fall, there wan
no provision for annual staffs, nor time
for student activities. Even the "flu"
intervened to prevent the ever ready
s
from starting the work.
Now, however, with conditions almost back to normal again, it is possible to think of annuals and other
things which make up college life.
The task is a hard one and only the
of the entire
complete
student body will make a success of
the year book.
All copy must be in the hands of
the publishers by March 1. With little more than a month to work, and
not one picture taken nor one line of
copy written, this is quite a task. Work
on the pictures will begin Monday. If
every person will have his sitting at
the earliest opportunity, turn back
the proofs without delay, and get the
finished picture at once, much time
will be saved. Moreover, if every person will do what he is asked to do
without delay, the management will
be spared much worry and loss of
sleep. Contributions are invited from
anyone who feels inspired, whether
said contribution be in the nature of
a poem, a drawing, a kodak picture or
a joke.

Senator D. H. Peak, business agent
of the University of Kentucky, has returned from Chicago, where he attended a meeting of the National Associations of State Universities, which
was called by Dr. Frank L. McVey,
secretary-treasureto discuss the financial problems of institutions which
trained S. A. T. C. units during the
war. Thursday of last week there was
a conference of business agents of
state universities in Chicago, which
Senator Peak also attended to hear the
discussion of the terms of contracts
made with the different schools. The
meeting of the association began on
Friday.
Senator Peak said yesterday that the
University had a bill against the Government, the largest Item of which was
for the construction of the barracks at
Rose and Winslow streets. Bids will
be asked for the salvaging of these
buildings in the near future, and it is
thought that the business problems
brought about by the training of the
S. A. T. C. unit will be adjusted

BRONZE TABLET IN
MEMORY OF PURSLEY
A bronze tablet in memory of E. R.
Pursley, who was killed In action with
the U. S. Marines in France, will be
put in the halls of some building of
the University of Kentucky by alumni,
who aro already taking steps to secure
the necessary funds. A photograph of
the young Pursley, who graduated from
the College of Engineering in the class
of 1916, has been received by Dean F.
Paul Anderson. It will be enlarged,
framed and hung in Mechanical Hall,
together with a recital of his gallantry
and the manner in which he met his
death.
So far as can be ascertained, Pursley and Howard Klnne, who was a
prominent figure in athletics and every
branch of University life, are the only
graduates of the College of Engineering who lost their lives in the war, o
a number of students and alumni of the college saw active service at
the front. Before entering the service
the former was with the Babcock-Wil-coCompany, Barberton, Ohio, engaged in making of water tube steam
boilers.
