Report Explains Causes
Big Sinking Pool of

of

The Bureau of Mineral and Top
ographical Survey has Just issued
Bulletin No. 1 dealing wltn the
geology of Big Singing Pool of Lee
county, Kentucky, by D. J. Jones
state
and Dr. A. C. McFarlan,
geologist. Mr. Jones was formerly
geologist of the Eastern Gulf Oil
company and is now geologist for
the Triangle Oil Field service at
Owensboro.
In the report an explanation of
this pool is offered in which the
old erosion surface between the
Corniferous and Ohio Black Shale
as more significant
is regarded
than the local structure. This is
true not only for this pool, but also
for the surrounding pools. Together these pools comprise the biggest
oil development that Kentucky has
ever had.
The field as a producer Is near
its end, but an understanding of
the known pools will do much to
point the way for economical ex
ploration in the future.
This report Is the first of a series
being prepared by the authors and
the group of petroleum geologists
in the state, with the completion of
which it Is hoped to have In print
an analysis of the geology of each
producing pool in the state. Bulletin No. 3 by Prof. R. P. Meacham
will follow shortly.

kings and queens of the football
game Saturday.
j
With great expectancy they had
awaited tneir annual trip to a university football game and when the
hour came and they were carefully
placed in their positions on the
trucks, and still more carefully
covered with blankets so as not to
catch cold, the crippled children
from Lexington hospitals and homes
were prepared for a Kentucky victory and nothing else.
Some say that the Wildcat football team was fighting for Gamage;
others say that it was for the University, but that silent group of
children who will never fight on the
football field for University knew
that the team would not lose if
th?y were there.
It was a silent group. The youngsters who made their first trip to a
Kentucky game wanted to shout
and yell for the Wildcats but there
was a feeling of suppression. The
older ones who now realize that
the extent of their injuries will
make it Impossible for them to run
and pass like the players were
bursting with pride of the Wildcat
team. But they couldn't shout.

Millan pushed the ball over the
goal and Kercheval made the point
after the 'touchdown, he told the
dark headed little girl next to him,
who couldn't quite figure it all out,
that the Wildcat team would win.
.
In the last quarter, when Kentucky was making their game stand
against a terrific drive by Georgia
Tech, the children were clenching
their fists together praying that the
Tech drive would fall.
When the gun was shot and the
game ended, a mighty proud group
of youngsters rode back to their
homes for another year, confident
their presence had aided the winners and content with being "Kings

Both teams scored in the first

KEEP IT UP
In the last issue we pleaded with
the students to "Show You're Alive!"
and now we want to compliment
you for doing so at the game last
Saturday. It is a certainty that

anyone who did not show symptoms
of life at that game was a paralytic.
It is wonderful what a feeling of
"underdog" will do to the fighting
spirit of a team and of a student
body. It is true that a great many
persons criticized the Wildcats following their game with Sewanee,
but as the time for the big game
with Tech drew near, although
there was not an optimistic spirit
apparent, it was clearly indicated
that the student body would loyally
and faithfully support the team, win
or lose.
Whoever or whatever it was that
instilled that fighting spirit into the
'Cats deserves a world of praise.
Everyone knew that the squad had
it in them, but likewise everyone
was querulous as to whether or not
they would put it out. In so far as
we can learn it was a wish to "win
for damage" that inspired the Big
Blue, Saturday. A thing that has
been sadly lacking in the past, but
is coming more and more apparent
is an absolute loyalty to the coach.
Needless to say this "win for the
coach" spirit is sn essential factor
to the success of a football team,
and so "Praise be to Allah," If the
Blue and White have Imbibed it.
It is true that the students took
a step forward Saturday in doing
their part in the support of the
team and in "greeting the players
in the good old Kentucky manner,"
but we have by no means reached
the ultimate. That was loyalty in
the face of a magnificent victory.
Will you be as loyal in the face
of defeat?
The team cannot be praised too
highly for its victory in the face of
tremendous odds, but the battle has
Just begun. Seven games remain
on the schedule which might be
ranked as "hstrd" and "harder."
Nevertheless if the spirit which
shone so brightly on Sloll field, Saturday, is maintained the Kentur-kian- s
will complete the season, If
not undefeated, ranked among the
great teams of the Southland.
Give your support with utmost
fidelity to the team and to the
coach and you will maintain this
"do or die" fighting spirit which
cannot be beaten!

recognise with firmer faith than
ever before, that spiritual values
count In the long run, more than
material values." It has taken a
long time for us as s nation to
realize this absolute fact, but we believe the trouble of the last four
years will certainly bring It home
to us in s very realistic manner.
President Roosevelt summed tip
his attitude in the following words.
"I can never express In words what
the loyalty and truth of the Nation
has meant to me. Not for a moment have I doubted that we would
climb out of the valley of gloom.
Always have I been certain that we
would conquer because of our land,
and s true and abiding faith In the
With
divine guidance of Ood."
principles such as these we can look
forward to better days. And The
Kernel, as a .representative of the
youth of the nation, pledges Its support to the ideals and principles
laid down by President Roosevelt.
