fearing departure from group opinion.
Doctor McCracken offered four
items on the students' bill of rights.
The first is the "right to be a student," which he defined as the
right of every student to have access to facts and ideas, whatever
they are; the right to read books,
to travel as a student, to mingle
with students of other countries.
"The student has the same right to
academic freedom as does the professor," the speaker said. "Professors have the Association of University Teachers to defend their
right to academic freedom, but
there is none for the student body."
This includes the freedom of speech,
of action, and of petition, which
are the rights of every individual.

Without undue fear, yet not quite
sure, Kentucky's Wildcats are ready
to meet the 'Oators from the University of Florida at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon on Stoll field. Advance reports from the men who
scouted Florida state that it is the
biggest team Kentucky has faced
this year.
Coach Wynne has run his
charges through a very thorough
week's practice after giving the
team a holiday on Monday for the
first time this season. All is peaceful in the Wildcat's lair.
From down in Florida comes the

report that the 'Gators are not doing so well in practice against Kentucky's plays. They are blocking
poorly, the report says.
Poor blocking on the part of
Florida should just about even
things up in that department, for
Kentucky hasn't been turning in
blocking either.

But on Wednesday when the 'Cats
played against Florida plays as used
by the frosh they did all right. The
second stringers, on the defensive,
allowed the frosh to gain the length
of the field on them before Wynne
sent in the regulars to stop them.
On Tuesday afternoon Earl Sands
reported back for practice and was
reinstated.
His first team position,
however, was filled by Walter
Hodge, who is expected to start in
Saturday's game. On the same afternoon Bert Johnson appeared on
the field in civilian clothes for a
short talk with Chet Wynne. As
he left the field, he told reporters
that he would be In uniform the

following day. Wynne says Johnson never was suspended, but was
out with sn Injured knee. His place
on the first team Is being held
down by Tommy Coleman, who will

start Saturday.
Injuries on the squad are minor
bruises, with the exception
of
Skaggs, who is on the hospital list
and probably will not start in Saturday's game. He is suffering from
a dislocated vertebrae which prevents him from standing up. The
injury is not responding to treatment as was hoped.
