Bill Is Submitted to Prevent
Teaching of Evolution
When the columns of the Kernel closed
for the current issue a review of the

attitude of the Legislature toward the
University disclosed these interesting
facts :
The Budget Committee of the General
Assembly had considered the University's
petition for funds to meet increasing
demands upon the institution for physical equipment and for enlarging the work
of Ithe University generally and had
turned down all these requests by writing into the budget virtually the same
appropriation that was obtained the
preceding biennial. The Budget Committee furthermore strongly recommended to the Legislature that its appropria
tions to meet all state expenses be not
modified by the parent body.
In effect, this means that the Univcr
sity will be compelled .unless the Legis
lature does modify the budget to at
tempt to meet the increasing demands of
a rapidly growing field to operate on
same appropriation that for the last
several years has kept it from fulfilling
in full measure its duty to the young men
and women of the commonwealth.
Not only is this the situation, but on
account of the decreased valuation of the
assessible property of the state the University will actually have, the forthcoming biennium, $160,000 less money
than it had the preceding similar period
upon which to continue its work.

game ended 28 to 21 in Kentucky's favor.
The Maroons' passing machine
was
evidently not working to perfection.
This, however, was accounted for by the
excellent defense work of the Wildcat
quintet. Their goal shooting was also
off, being able to run up only 7 points
in the first half. During the second half
substitutes fairly rained for tho Miss.
A. & M. spuad and they were able to
score double tho points in the second
hnlf as in the first, making a total of 21
points against
Kentucky's
28.
The
Maroons fought gamely, putting up just
as strong a fight in tho last 40 seconds
of play that remained after a time out
was called, as they did at tho beginning
of tho game.
King was a star performer in this
gamo, his goal shooting being of the
stellar variety. Adkins who was not expected to bo able to play put up an
unusually brilliant defense, although
Paul had hard luck with somo of his
goal shots. The playing of Hayden was
all that could bo desired. Lavin and
Burnhnm also played excellent basketball. Poyntz substituted for Hayden for
a short timo in tho second half.

hit their stride as was amply demonstrated Thursday evening when they defeated Miss. A. & M by a score of 28 to
21 in a hotly contested game on the floor
of the University Gymnasium.
According to the dope sheet the
Maroons had the edge on the wearers of
the Blue and White being able to hold the
lead of the Commodores to a narrow
margin.
The Wildcats started a furious attack
at the opening whistle and made the first
goal in the first few minutes of play.
Kentucky's pass work has shown consid
erable improvement since the tilt with
the University of Louisville and the
Wildcats were able to score the lead in
the first half, at which time the score
was 18 to 7 in our favor. Hayden was an
important factor in Kentucky's lead for
the first half, Basil as usual playing an
excellent game. During the second half
with almost a new team on tho floor the
Maroons scored 14 points, and fought
gamely, but were unable to take the
lead away from Kentucky.

SAX RELATES HISTORY

OF VAGABOND

THEATRE

Formerly Connected With
Maryland Institute
Professor Caroll M. Sax head of the
Art Department was intimately connected with tho Vagabond Theater about
which students have heard so much since
the Little Theater was established on
the Campus, Professor Sax was head of
the Department of Design at the Maryland Institute in 1915 at the time of the
organization of the Vagabond. Maryland
Institute is one of the largest schools of
Dramatic Art production in the United
States having a student body at that
timo of about 2,000.
Concerning the Vagabond Theater Professor Sax says that a group of students
wished to do a great deal in scenery
designing and found that their experimental work was impossible without a
heavy cost so they conceived the idea of
the Vagabond Theatre. By decorating
the stages of some High School auditoriums and an Armory in nearby towns
sufficient funds were raised to rent a
small room and between commissions
it was decorated within a year it was
opened for its first season. In the beginning there was one director but now the
Vngabond boasts a board ol 11 directors.
A financial plan had to bo adopted, but
it did not include tho soliciting or acceptance of mercenary gifts for in all the
seven seasons tho Vngabond has never
been given a penny.
In the beginning
tho theater had a seating capacity of
sixty two not until tho third season was
it enlarged to the same size as the University's Little Theater here on the
Campus which is its present capacity.
During the first season a ticket for one

SOCIAL SERVICE

Gives Lecture In Chapel
And Is Guest of Social
Service Students
Mrs. Irene Farnum Conrad of Cincinnati gave the second of tho lectures as
Guidance
planned by tho Vocational
Committee Tuesday morning nt Chapel,
on tho subject "Social Service."
Mrs. Conrad says that most of us aro
happiest when we nro championing some
particular cause, and since social work
is that in which she is most interested
sho was ablo to present clearly the advantages and disadvantages of her cause
"Social Service."
Social work is often thought of as relieving distress but of more importance is
tho possibility of relieving conditions
which causo the distress. A social
worker endeavors to perfect human relationships and in each community the"
plan differs in various respects.
Tho salaries of social workers range
from $300 to $10,000 nnd are in proportion to tho training and education of
tho individual. In tho opinion of Mrs.
Conrad tho sense of satisfaction gained
from sociul service fur out weight all tho
other difficulties of the profession.
