K. E. A. DRAWS BIG CROWD
More Than 300 Present at Alumni'
Banquet at Seelbach Hotel
The Alumni Association was well
represented at the Kentucky Educational Associatoin convention held in
Louisville last week. From every section of the Starte members of the
Alumni Association and former students of the University were present.
The Alumni Association banquet,
held Thursday night at the Seelbach
hotel in the main dining room, was
attended by 330 persons, of which at
least 275 were former students and
alumni.
W. C. Wilson, Alumni Secreary,
presided as toastmaster of the banquet.
Governor William J. Fields and President McVey were among the speakers. In a few words Governor Fields
outlined his plans for assisting the educational institutions of the state and
expressed hopes that the $75,000,000
bond issue would bring the some of
the help so badly needed.
Governor
Dr. McVey preceded
Fields with an address in which he
stated that the programs of the University could only mean the progress
of education as whole in the state the
growth and expansion of the grade
schools, the high schools, normal
schools and sectarian colleges must
inevitably follow that of the University.
A particular pleasing feature of the
banquet was the fact that practically
every college and normal school in the

In an effort to present the different
phases of activities at the University
several of the campus organizations
were asked to take part in the enter- -'
tainment at the banquet.
R. L. Porter, member of the Student
Speakers' Bureau, was on the program
for an address. Tom Young and
Wickliffe Moore, both seniors, were

I.t is now only about six weeks until
the opening of the Kentucky Home
Coming, which opens at Louisville,
Monday, June 16, 1924. The home
coming this year will be in accordance,
with the plan inaugurated a number
of years ago to have the sons and
daughters of the Blue Grass State re- turn once every ten years in a body

and renew their acquaintances with
the home folks.
A great mailing list is being prepared and invitations will be sent 'to every
former resident of the state urging
him or her to conic to Kentucky during the celebration. A big parade will
be held in Louisville during the homecoming wek and also a barbecue.
Later while they arc here the natives
will all go to their home towns and
pay their first friends a visit.
Among the notable Kentuckians expected to be in Louisville during the
home coming week is Maj. General
Henry T. Allen, formerly of Sharps-burIn a recent visit to Kentucky
General Allen promised the people
that he would be in Kentucky at that
time. He has also promised to be in
Lexington during the month of June
when a smaller celebration will be
given here.
The alumni of Old State are practically all Kentuckians and have Iby
that a stronger attachment to Kentucky than those who were only born
in the state. Why not come to the
campus homecoming the first of June
and remain over for the later celebration while here. Don't lose connections with your old home. Come on
down and hang around a while this
summer.
The Detroit and Buffalo Clubs are
working enthusiastically to be represented at the homecoming. In Detroit the committee is headed by that
Charles Planck,

while in Buffalo the staunch advocates
of homecoming are led by Dr. Phil
