The Wildcats were troubled thruout

dumb and blind, according to one ot
the Kentucky basketball artists, to
referee basketball games.
Chattanooga it Defeated
Chattanooga was the first game
played on the trip. It was staged
Thursday night in Chattanooga. Everett, who is working at center now was
the particular star in the Wildcats'
first try. He counted 12 points and
was responsible for winning the game,
according to Coach Oill. He looped

McVEY
Few Kentucky students are aware
that the world's rarest medical library,
containing some of the oldest and most
prized books in the United States is
available to them in the library of
Transylvania College. It Is impossible
to estimate the pecuniary value of the
collection, but prominent scholars from
all over the country have heard of
the library with pleasure and taken advantage of its store of knowledge.
Transylvania's library was begun
with the college in 1783, when the Rev.
John Todd, of Virginia, became the
first donor of books. There are still
many books in the library with his
name on the flyleaf. The list of the
men who have presented volumes to
the library Is made up of names widely
known in science and medicine and con
tains the name of one king, William
IV, of England, whose gift arrived in
August 1834. The majority of the
eighty-onvolumes composing his gift
are Latin works and all are in the
folio form. In the front of each one
is bound a small page with the inscription: "To be perpetually preserved in the library of Transylvania
College." Some one has suggested
that this is the gift mentioned In one
of Macauley's essays in which he recounts the conversation of the King
and Walpole. Walpole was twitting
the King about the gift of such books
to such an obscure western college.
The exact essay was not recalled.
One of the most valuable gifts was
made by Edward Everett, secretary of
state under President Fillmore. This
gift was made in 1830 and consists of
12 volumes, eight of which were published in the sixteenth century, three
in the seventeenth and one in the
eighteenth. Each volume is folio size
and bound in elegant vellum.
Three books given by the naturalist,
Andre Mlchaux are valued at 9300.
They are books about trees and contain the most accurate and remarkable plates of the various trees of Kentucky, Tennessee and Ohio. Another
gift by Michaux is a Chinese dictionary published in French in 1724.
A book of remarkable plates is by
Alexander Humboldt and contains the
sketches he made In South America.
Humboldt is still regarded as an authority on South American history and
remains, and the work is doubly valuable because of his reputation.
The library abounds in peculiar diction and quaintly humorous writings.
One gazeteer in a work published in
1783 bounds Virginia in this way: "Virginia is bounded on tho north by Penn- e

BEAUTIES

CHOSENJAST FRIDAY

Eight Prettiest Girls of the
University Selected For
Annual Beauty
Section
Editors of the 1919 Kentuckian have
congratulated themselves already upon
the Beauty Section that is to adorn
this year's book, for last Friday, the
following girls were selected as subjects for the eight pictures to appear
there: Isabel Dickey, Dorothy Middle-toLoraine West, Eliabeth Kimbrough, Helen Taylor, Ella Brown,
Margaret Smith and Dorothy Walker.
Competition in the voting was as
keen this year as it has been any year
before, and the number of candidates
ranking in the first dozen was large.
Dissappointment is sure to be the lot
of some who much desired the election of their own candidate, but these
disappointed persons can reap solace
from the statement of the beauty editor, that the "whole bunch is so pretty
that it is absurd to select eight."

n,

Now what shar? we write about the
girls? If we mention Isabel's eyes
we will have to mention Dot's nose; If
we refer to Helen's smile, we'll have to
remember Ella's hair; a line about
Loraine's mouth, will demand a description of Elizabeth's eyelashes. So
what is a poor male scribe to do but
mention the surpassing beauty of them
all and trust to luck to preserve him
from the wrath of any one that might
be offended? One avenue of safety is
opened and is hereby used:
"O, our girls are as sweet as the
breath ot the morn,
When the grass Is bespangled with
dew;
And their eyes are as bright as the
stars of the dawn,
While their cheeks are the loveliest
hue."

The meeting of the Freshman class
was called by Dean Melcher for the
purpose of holding the long delayed
election of class officers. A great deal
of rivalry was demonstrated between
the two "tickets" in the field. The students in the College of Engineering
nominated George Oldham as their candidate, and were confident of success,
because of their superiority of numbers as compared with any other college at the University. The students
of the College of Agriculture nominated one of their number, John C.
Everett, Jr., and received the support
of the Arts and Science students,
which elected Everett by about twenty

INTERVIEWED

Plans for the expansion of this University have been outlined by President McVey. If they materialize, they
will meet the requirements of the University for fifty years. Several big
buildings will be erected under the
new development idea which promises
to make this University outstanding
in Southern educational circles.
The proposed plans have been outlined by Olmstead Brothers, of Brook-linMass., and landscape perspectives by Coolidge and Shattuck, ot
Boston.
n,;
The idea, as thus far advanced, was
outlined Tuesday by President Frank
L. McVey.

The Olmstead plan includes plans
for the Improvement of the low
grounds at the corner of Limestone
and Winslow streets. On that corner
is contemplated the erection of a
building to be known as the "Commons," where the student body will
be boarded with pleasant surroundings,
and large enough to care for the stu- Behind the contemplated building on
dent increase for years.
Winslow street is to be erected a large
library building for students' use, and
adjoining will be built a gymnasium.
On Limestone street, the plans call
for a law school building, and behind
that on the left is to be a building devoted to physical science.

At the lower end of the quadrangle
is to be a library building, and to the
right of the quadrangle a great engineering structure to be used as College of Engineering.

Further on toward Limestone street
in the uadrangle will be a building In
the quadrangle will be a building for
agricultural purposes.
The scheme of expansion and improvement will be added to from time
to time as the needs of the institution require, as the probable increase
in the student body is likely to be one
thousand a year, Dr. McVey believes,
and it is necessary to have a large
equipment in order to keep pace with
institutions of a like nature in other
States.
As President McVey sees it, the
University of Kentucky is bound to
have a much larger student enrollment. The history of other State universities show that with the growth of
the universities, grow tho development of the State.
"The time," says President McVey,
"will come in tho next few yeurs when
the University of Kentucky will have
a student body of three thousand, and
the State is bound to make provisions
for the futuro and prepare for the

Lexington have not. recognized the
treasure laid beforo them and taken
advantage of it.
