Each- of the suggestions we receive in regard to student government will be discussed separately

is received, we will mention the
points contained briefly in this column. A. L. S. believes that the present "method of representation is
cot' lair; to the colleges without
political organizations because the
larger dr more unified college will
be able to control most of the votes
anrj elect most of the representatives to the legislature. Instead of
being based only on class representation,' he believes the constitution

ENGINEERS' CHOICE

Yearbook Is Sectioned
By Avenue Motif,
Life Division
Baaed on the theme "Avenues of
Beauty," the 1939 Kentuckian was
placed on sale yesterday by James
Quisenberry, business manager.
A cover of green burlap, containing an engraving of a long highway stretching away into the distance, binds the yearbook. Facsimiles of this is used throughout the
title, dedication, and content pages.
The theme is explained in the
frontispiece as follows: "Avenues oi
Beauty symbolizas that indelible
beauty created by a uniform receding into the distance
it provides a medium to suggest the
beauty of the University and the
Bluegrass region . . . and serves ab
stractedly to allow a retrospective
glance."
Fields of campus "doings" have
been divided Into avenues, eat-bsymbolizing a certain spirit of the
University. The Greek socials comprise the "Avenues of Fellowship";
athletic teams make up the "Avenue of Sports"; and the campus
honoraries the "Avenue of Achievement." In each avenue are contained
pictures of members, names of officers and purpose of the organizations.
The many and varied campus
"queens" compose the "Avenue of
Beauties."
Imitating a cover and makeup of
Life magazine, one section of the
yearbook shows "Life at ths University of Kentucky," and includes
camera shots of campus activities
participated m by "Mr. and Miss
Average Collegian."
The Kentuckian has been dedicated to the Engineering coTlege, with,
however, an honor to Pres. Frank
McVey for his 22 years of service
to the University.
Candid camera shots, pictures of
the campus and of members of the
senior and junior classes and of
the faculty unite to make the 1939

Negro Chorus
Delights 1500
With Concert
By .MARTIN

FREEDMAN
Three hundred Negro voices humming the joyful "Swing Low Sweet
Chariot" concluded one of the simplest and most beautiful concerts
ever presented at the University
Sunday afternoon in Alumni gym.
Under the direction of M. F.
Ciuse of Lexington, the chorus,
from 14 Kentucky towns, delighted
the 1500 spectators with its depth
of feeling and immense power. Singing against a backdrop which gavo
an illusion of a high cathedral, the
.subtle hlendine of thP rhnrns hum- ming gave the soloists an accompaniment far more effective than a
grand organ.
The program of spirituals and
nsored
southern melodies was
jointly by the recreation association
of the state W. P. A. and Phi Mu
Alpha, campus music fraternity. At
the conclusion of the concert. Prof.
Donald Allton, representing
the
honorary, presented Director Cruse
a gift.
Although the performances of the
individual glee clubs were less imposing than of the massed choir,
one of the finest recitals was given
by the mixed group of singers from
the Kentucky State college in Frankfort.

campus for social service work and

Petitions with nearly 1000 student
signatures endorsing the proposed
CRSO student government constitution will be presented to the University senate at 4 p. m . today at
its May meeting in the law college
assembly room.
Observers predicted that the senate would take one of four courses
when the plan is put to a vote. The
senate may:
1
refer the constitution to
specially appointed committee with
authority to act upon its findings.
2 hand the plan to the University council with power to act.
3
appoint a
committee to sift the plan with CRSG
members and other students and report finding to the senate at a future meeting.
4 shelve it for future consideration if
discussion follows the plan's presentation.
Sufficient support of the constitution by senate members is expected to force consideration at today's meeting.
All CRSG members will attend
the senate meeting, and Chairman
Sid Bucki-- will present and explain
the constitution.
CRSG members hoped that the
senate would appoint a committee
to act jointly with students and to
be authorized to act on the plan
and revisions.
Smear strategy by
student objectors was cited yesterday by CRSG men. The majority
of objectors do not seem to understand that the constitution is not
final but only an outline. subi-vto
all revision, they declared.
Some changes suggested since last
Thursday's mass meeting have been
seriously considered by the pians
backers, who hare always admitted
the plan Imperfect and presented it
for student approval as but an attempt at more democratic and efficient student self government.
