Wildcats Use Whitewash in
Second Game, State Championship Looms Bigger
and Bigger
The Volunteers of the University of
Tennessee were defeated twice last
week at the hands of the fierce Wild
cats of the University of Kentucky. On
its trip into the State of Kentucky this
season Tennessee lost four and tied
one out of five games played. Georgeand Kentucky
town, Transylvania,
were victors, while Centre held the
Southern team to a tie.
The second game of the season for
the Wildcats was played Friday afternoon on Stoll Field, with the Volunteers, resulting in a decisive victory
for Kentucky, by a score of 10 to 3.
The feature of the game was a home
nih by Henry Thomas, catcher for the
Wildcats, in the fifth inning. The ball
sailed out into deep center field, and
rolled out of Stoll Field thru a gap in
the fence, making the longest hit, and
the only home run of the season here.
The game was not so exciting and
close, but the students and other
fans on the bleachers had a chance to
give the Wildcats a close "once over"
and see Just what material Kentucky
has for a championship team.
The Wildcat southpaw, "Doc" Las-lestruck out eight of the Tennes-seean- s
in Friday's game, displaying
his usual good headwork in his pitching. He easily outclassed the mighty
Meek, who wrought Buch havoc with
the Wildcat record last year.
Thomas, beginning his second sea
son behind the bat for the Wildcats,
upheld his part of the reputation for
the Kentucky battery His throws
were accurate and well timed. Out
of four times at the bat he secured
three hits, one resulting in the home
run.
Three hits out of five times at the
bat and an errorless afternoon of fielding was the record of Burnham, Kentucky's freshman thirdbaseman. Brown
the other freshman infielder, is fulfilling all the fan's expectations of a
crackerjack first baseman for Kentucky, and is doing his share with the
stick.
Calloway proved himself the best
player with the Tennesseans, altho he
did not add anything to his reputation
as one of the best shortstops in the
South. His work at the bat, however,
was better than that of any of his
mates. Ho made two clean hits, and
scored one run.
The score by innings was:

He indicatod that the condition of
Western Europe has grown worso educationally because money formerly expended on schools has been wasted In

"Under Cover," May 3, Lexington
Opera House. Make that date now!
The Strollers' interpretation of "Under Cover" has reached the Btage of
rough perfection," says Carroll M. Sax,
who Is now in charge of rehearsals.
"The play is original, interesting,
and well adapted to college players,"
says Mr. Sax. "I had heard of the
really good work of the Strollers in
Baltimore, and after directing two rehearsals I am convinced that the reports were not exaggerated. The mem
bers of the cast are talented and show
that they are able to characterize."
Mr. Sax is a believer in simplicity
of science design and he will probably
paint the scenery which will be used
in this production. He also emphasizes the value of artistic lighting,
which, he says, brings the audience
Into a sympathetic contact with the
players.
Mr. Sax is interested in the much- talked-o- f
Little Theatre, which, he
says, will be the nucleus of dramatic
and literary accomplishments in the
near future. Such a theatre will tend
to draw the town and the University
Into closer touch and will realize the
ideal of a house of their own, which
has been fostered by the Strollers for
several years. Since Lexington is a
town with dramatic traditions and an
unlimited amount of amateur talent,
the success of the theatre is guaran
teed, Mr. Sax thinks.

The elegiac dramatization of the
Book of Lamentations to be presented
by Prof. B. P. Farquhar's Bible Literature class in chapel Tuesday, April
29, at the regular chapel period Is as
sured to be one of the best chapel programs the University has had In years.
Professor Farquhar has made this
exquisite Old Testament elegy Into a
drama that depicts the emotions of
the Hebrew people exiled from their
own city of Jerusalem to Babylon. The
main theme of the drama is the sorrow
of the captured tribe of Judah, who,
at the downfall of their city, were
placed in subjection by their adversaries and driven from their native land
because they had sinned and knew not

their

Qod.

The scene of the elegy is laid outside the city wall of Jerusalem immediately after its destruction by the
Babylonians in 586 B. C. The total destruction of the city came as a shock
to th'e citizens of Jerusalem who had
not heeded the warnings of their
prophets, Ezra and Nehemlah, that the
Lord would bring affliction and misery
on His sinning people. The final destruction of the city in 586 B. C. was
positive proof to the old prophets that
the Lord had fulfilled His vow.
The drama begins with a procession
of exiles, elders and women of Jeru
salem, driven by a Babylonian soldier,
led past the ruined city with its temple
pillars yet standing where the Wom
an of Jerusalem sits despondently
with the only true Prophet of the
tribe who has refused to leave his
abandoned city.
This dramatization will prove in
tensely interesting since It brings out
more vividly than the text can do
the elegiac beauty of the book, brought
out by entiphonal dialogue and dramatic scenes of emotion. It is par
ticularly interesting at the present
time because the very scene where the
drama is laid, outside the city of. Jerusalem, held since the seventh century
by the Mohammedans has been captured from the Turks by the Allies,
and if the Zionist movement proves
successful, will probably be restored
to the Hebrew race.
The drama will probably be given,
Professor
Farquhar announces, at
Transylvania or Hamilton and perhaps
be taken to adjoining towns in addition to its presentation here.
Miss Elizabeth Marshall has been
chosen to play the part of the Woman
of Jerusalem with Bernard Moosnlck
the Prophet.
Charles Planck and
Frederick Jackson will be the elders
of the captured city who lead the procession toward Babylon. Lee McClain
plays the part of the Babylonian soldier, and a chorus performing the function of the Greek chorus to reflect the
emotions of the main protagonists will
be composed of the following ten girls:
Elizabeth Megowan, Ruth Thomas,
Florence Whittenhill, Vivian DeLaine,
Lucy Dean, Nettie Pushin, Dorothy

Tribute to Their Hosts
in Lexington
University men and alumni are giv
en credit for their exhibition of Ken
tucky hospitality to the visiting mem
bers of the British Educational Mission
which inspected the University last
fall.
The Mission was making a tour of
the universities of the country, and
while they were here, they were enter
tained by a committee composed of
members of the faculty and several
men of Lexington who were former
students here. In the March number
of Scrlbner's magazine, an article appeared which consisted of the diary
kept by Arthur E. Shipley, master of
Christ's College and Vice Chancellor
of Cambridge University, England,
while he was making the tour.
The Mission was entertained at a
local club for a short while, where they
had opportunity to test some of the
products of Kentucky which has made
her famous. They all liked it. The en
tries of Mr. Shipley which refer to
Lexington, the University of Kentucky follow:
"We had been invited by the Council of Defense at Washington and were
sent out under the auspices of our own
foreign office. For more than sixty
days we went up and down this vast
country, traveling many thousands of
miles and seeing so many universities
and colleges and so many presidents
and professors that those amongst us
who had not hitherto had the privilege of visiting the United States
formed the idea that all its cities are
university cities and that all the inhabitants are professors, an idea very
awful to contemplate!
The members of the Mission represented the older universities In Eng
land as well as the big municipal uni
versities of London and of the Mid
lands of the North. The Scottish uni
versities and those of Ireland were
also represented.
"Thursday, November 21st. Every
where had we been received well, but
at Lexington there was a warm
heartedness about our hosts which
made us feel at once inhabitants of
"My Old Kentucky Home." We mo
tored out some twenty miles to the
Shaker village, where we fed on the
dishes of the South, and very good
dishes, too, in a stately home with well
proportioned rooms, and the date of
1817 over the lintel of the front door.
On the road we passed what we had
not passed before, the homes of country gentlemen who live in them, and
do not merely spend a 'week-enIn
them. They breed race horses and
race them, and raise tobacco and
smoke It; in fact, Lexington is a social
and a trading center. On returning
we saw something of the University
buildings, and inspected the Students'
Army Training Corps, now all eager
to got out of khaki. At dinner we were
cheered by nigger minstrelsy and by
a minimum of speeches. Afterwards
wo had a discussion with some of the
Governors and members of the faculty.
The value of these discussions is always inversoly proportional to the
size of the meeting. At Lexington the
meeting was small.

President Emeritus Patterson has
acecpted the invitation of the Patterson Literary Society to be with them
in one of their weekly meetings. The
date will be announced later. Doctor
Patterson Is the founder and most dis
tinguished member of the society. To
his generosity the society owes the
beautiful medal given each year to the
winner of the oratorical contest.
The society met Friday night, April
18, and gave one of the year's best
programs.
Robert Warth, formerly
second lieutenant, spoke on "America's
Military Blunder." He discussed the
rejection of the Lewis machine gun,
the neglect of General Wood, and the
premature signing of the armistice.
Two numbers of especial Interest were
declamations taken from the writings
of famous Kentuckians, Walter Piper
gave Henry Watterson's great speech
on Lincoln and H. B. McGregor gave
J. Proctor Knott's masterpiece of polit
ical satire "Duluth." It is a policy of
the society to encourage researches
into Kentucky's history and literature.
A pleasant literary touch was added
to the program by W. I. Moore, who
delivered
that American favorite
among poems, "The House by the Side
of the Road."
New members who have been received recently are J. W. Baumgarten,
W. I. Moore, Emery Fraser, Boswell
and W. R. Pearlman.
