NUMBER 7 WILDCATS TO MEET GENERALS SCORES ON TESTS FOR FRESHMEN ARE Results of Examinations Giv- en First Year Students Released STATISTICS COMPILED BY PSYCHOLOGISTS Quizzes Consist of Mathematics. English, and General Intelligence Rankings of first year students In the university classification tests given during freshman week were announced Tuesday by Prof. E. J. Asher of the psychology department, in whose office the results were compiled. Out of a total of 750 students tested, 17 were In the high' est tenth on all examinations. The tests, embracing the special subjects of English and of mathe matics as well as a psychological examination for general lnforma tlon, good judgement, and thinking ability, embody the latest scientific methods of determining the ability and training of new students for doing general college work, and for undertaking these two special subjects, according to Professor Asher, In charge of testing the incoming students. Freshmen who show little aptitude for English or mathe matics or who are Inadequately pre pared, are given special individual attention In classes designed for them. This plan for obtaining more individual attention for special groups of students by sectioning the classes is a continuation of the plan used at the university last year. It has been profitably used In a num ber of the large universities for years. The forms of the tests used for classification of the students have been thoroughly tried out in or especially universities other to needs of the University adapted of Kentucky. Students scoring in highest ten per- cent on the psychology, English, and mathematics tests are: Hampton Allison, Paris; Dorothy Billy Lexington; Eloise Clifton, Bowen Cundiff, Somerset; Clinton H.

Shake-U- SPEAKER The second pep meeting of the year will be held at 7:30 o'clock tonight In the men's gymnasium, according to Jimmy Bishop, chairman of the committee recently appointed by Suky Circle to take charge. Wallace Mulr, a former Wildcat, now practicing law in Lexington will be the principle speaker. The program also includes speeches by Tom Phlpps, better known to the fans as the "old war horse," and Coach Harry Gamage. guardian of the Big Blue. According to the committee in charge, Coach Gamage has promised to have his Wildcats on hand. The W. and L. pep meeting has always attracted the largest crowd of any session with the possible exception of the Tennessee pep meeting and Suky is planning to make the meeting as attractive as possible. The university band will be on hand and an appropriate program of collegiate airs is planned to inject pep into the football devotees present. The cheer leaders for the year also will be selected at this meeting. Those wishing to try out for the position are requested to gei m touch wlthJimmy Bishop. The ap plause the crowd gives each candidate will be taken into consideration when the final selection of the yell leader is made. The committee in charge of the affair is composed of Jimmy Bishop, Floy Bowling, and John Ewing. Babe Wright, captain of this year's edition of the 'Cats, is expected to say his bit to the audience. Shipwreck Kelly also will be called upon to tell the fans of Kentucky's chances and each member of the team will be presented and cheered on to a victory over the Generals. Members of Men's Glee Club Announced The Wildcats have been subject to a complete educational series on how to tear holes in the enemy line, how to tackle, how to pass, and how to block. As a result of the courses offered, and taken, several football students have been advanced from the foot of the class to first team berths. Two changes that are positive are: the advancement of BUI Lather from the third team to the fist string center, and the replacement of George Yates by Duff at the end post. Tentative backfield chances seem to point toward Johnson's moving back from signal caller to blocking-bac- k and Richards being moved to call the signals. And that isn't alL Johnson may not start. If he doesn't, either Phipps or Kercheval will replace him. It all resulted from the scrim-age- s held this week. Gamage placed the ball within ten yards of the goal and ordered the first team to take it over. And in order to get it over they had to get through a determined second string line. The second team outfought them them. Fourth down and came around and there was still about five or six to go. Things looked black for the Wildcats. Darby tore his opposition down. Bill Luther got through Seale. Kreuter and Duff swept around the ends and make tackles. As a result Luther, Duff and Kreuter moved over to the first line. Seale rarely gets mad probably that is his trouble, but for three days he hasn't cracked a smile. His work against Luther is like that of a wildman, but Luther holds on. The day after Cavana lost his berth he returned to his original place. Yates has yet to regain his position. In the second backfield Jack Phipps made some tackles that were lessons in perfection. Worthington, back in uniform after a long layoff, couldn't see anyone passing him if they had a ball in their arms. In order that Kelly should get the proper amount of tackling practice he worked on the defensive side of the line for several days, and as a result he is showing improvement. Wednesday was the tough day for the squad.
