school. All the students have scattered except a few who are especially ambitious and thirsty for knowl
edge, and who are spending their
time In the library.
Even the professors leave. It Is

possible and most probable that the
janitor, who is always around, may
have deserted his post. Books are

In short, there Is nothing

But don't misunderstand!
Is the description of the campus on
the Fourth of July, on which day
the entire constituency of the University summer school is released to
add their bit of celebration to the
national holiday.
It should be needless to remind
anyone that Friday, July Fourth,
1930, marks the passing of 154 years
since the Declaration of Independence was signed Methods of living
are considered to have greatly improved since that day. Science is
supplanting the work of a few great
brains for a multitude of smaller
ones.

Our nation occupies a position of
prominence and Is respected by all
others. Expansion and organization
has been the business of the United
States since that day when the Declaration was signed by a few
statesmen.
However, as much as Americans
have endeavored to be original and
individual, at least a few of the old
world characteristics have not been
eradicated. The note of restriction
and restraint which our ancestors
fought creeps Into the following

-'

Prof. Elmer G. Sulzer, director of
the University radio studio, has received a letter from T. M. McKnlght
of the University of Alabama publicity department, concerning the
plans for the broadcasting of the
Alabama-Kentuck- y
football game
November 1 over the National
Broadcasting Company chain hookup
The plan seems to be progressing
favorably according to Professor
Sulzer. This will be the first time
a University of Kentucky game has
been broadcast through so many
stations. The regular program Is
broadcast through WHAS, Louisville, WSM Nashville, WMC Memphis, WSB Atlanta, WAPI Birmingham, WSNB New Orleans, and
WJDX Jackson, would be the other
stations on the chain.
Professor Sulzer has also written
to J. R. Williams, publisher, of the
Appalachian Journal, concerning the
plans, getting the reaction of the
people in Tennessee to the national
broadcast. Mr. Williams says that
he considers the Idea an excellent
one, and believes that the NBC
should be urged to broadcast results on all the southern games.
The University stadium has a remote control wiring to connect it
with WHAS at Louisville where It
could be put on the chain without
additional expense. The NBC authorities are giving the project favorable consideration.
