Nineteenth Kentucky
Meteorite Discovered
Discovery of the nineteenth Kentucky meteorite has Just been announced by David M. Young, curator of th eMuseum of Geology. Lexington. The new meteorite, which
meighs fifteen pounds, is a siderite
of the coarse octahedrite variety,
and is composed matnly of the
metals iron and nickel.
The speciman was found in the
spring of 1908 about one mile west
of Providence. Trimble county, in
an orchard on the farm of W. T.
Yeagex. Mr. Yeager kept the speciman at his home for the past thirty
years as a curiosity, without knowledge of its true character.
Several months ago. the speciman
was taken to the State Highway Department at Frankfort, where John
Stokley. geologist and former U. K.
student, recognized the unusual
character of the material. Mr. Stokley submitted the speciman to Mr
Young who positively identified it
as a siderite. or iron meteorite.
A field examination of the site
of discovery was made by Mr. Young
who also secured the meteorite for
the University collection from Its
finder. Mr. Yeager. The new meteorite will be known as the Providence Siderite.
Recently, the collection of meteorites at the Museum of Geology
of the University has been augmented by the loan of specimans
belonging to J. D. Figgins. of the
Bernhein Museum. The eighteenth
Kentucky meteorite, a siderite from
Clark county, is included In this
collection. The Clark County meteorite was secured by Mr. Figgins
in the spring of 1930.
The entire collection of Kentucky
meteorites may be seen in the University's Museum of Oeology on the
days and hours that other University departments are open.

Enrollment at the University during the year that included the two
summer session of 1937 and the regschool year totalled
ular 1937-5,741 students, it was revealed in
statistics released yesterday by Dr
Leo Chamberlain, registrar of the
institution. The figure excludes all
duplicate enrollments.
During the same period, the University high school and the University elementary school enrolled
approximately six hundred different
pupils, and at the same time the
number of Individuals enrolled In
extension courses was one thousand
Thus, during the past year, the University of Kentucky has provided
formal eductaional opportunities for
more than 7.300 Individuals, it was
indicated.
Although the distribution of the
student body between the sexes
varies from term to term, approximately sixty per cent of the enrollment of 5.741 students was men, and
forty per cent women. The percentage distribution of students between the seven colleges of the
University was as follows: Arts and
Sciences, 343; Agriculture, 11.8; Engineering, 7.3; Law, 2.7; Education.
8.5; Commerce, 12; and Graduate
School. 23 4
As far as classes were concerned.
16 8 per cent of the year's enrollment of 5,741 were freshmen, 18 per
cent sophomores. 17.4 per cent Juniors, 17.3 per cent seniors, 23.1 per
cent graduate students. 4 6 per cent
special students, 2.1 per cent auditors, and 2.7 per cent transients.
Among the colleges of the University of Kentucky, the greatest
relative growth has taken place in
the graduate school, where the present figure presents an increase of
en290 per cent over the 1927-3rollment. The other divisions that
have shown unusual growth are the
College of Commerce with an increase of 247 per cent over 1927-2and the College of Agriculture,
with an increase of 248 per cent
over that year.
During the past year, students
were admitted to the University
with advanced standing from 140
states.
institutions in thirty-fou- r,
including Kentucky. Two hundred
and ninety-fivstudents were admitted from twenty five Kentucky
colleges. Approximately five hundred students were enrolled In the
Graduate School from Kentucky
colleges, including 192 who received
their degrees from the University.
Eighty-fo- ur
institutions in twenty-fou- r
states, the District of Columbia, and one foreign country were
also represented.
Since 1866. the University of Kentucky has granted a total of 10510
degrees, slightly more than 65 per
cent to men. About fourteen per
cent of this total have been graduate degrees. During the 1937-3school year, the professional staff
at the University consisted of three
hundred and two individuals, nine
of whom are engaged primarily ic
administrative work. The remaining 293 might properly be described
as the instructional and research
staff. This latter group is composed of 235 men and 58 women.

Dr. Amry Vandenbosch, professor
of political science at the University, has Just completed a set of
special lectures before the Institute
of Far Eastern Studies at the University of Michigan.
Dr. Vandenbosch s four lectures
on July 11. 12. 13 and 14. respectively, were "Recent political developments In Netherlands India," "Dutch
economic and commercial policy in
the East Indies." "Netherlands India in world politics." and "A comparison of British. Dutch, and
French colonial policy in Southeastern Asia." .
The Institute of Far Eastern Studies has been established at the
University of Michigan in recognition of a growing public and academic interest in Eastern Asia. It
is the outgrowth of a long continued
association between the Univer
sity and the peoples and govern
ment of the Far East.

A total of 972 students, the largest number ever to register the first
day of second term of Summer
Session, had signed for classwork
when the registration booths in
Alumni gymnasium were closed at
4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
This figure topped by 209 the first
day record set in 1937 when 763
students signed on the initial day
and gave indications that last year's
second term record of 1.139 might be
broken.
Summer Director Jesse E. Adams
was well pleased with the registration and expressed a belief that late
registrations would push the total
to above 1.100.
Heavy hanging clouds and rain
throughout the day was believed
to have affected the registration,
causing some of the students to
put off their signing until Tuesday
According to Doctor Adams, this
was the first time it had rained on

Frenthnian not
long ago declared
that "disorderly,
uncertain
and inexact reading reduces to the very minimum the Kwer of the will and the freedom of
choice in the development of memory." In such
reading, he .mints out, there is an exhaustion of
mental energy to no puitMise which is almost
moibid in its effects, and those who
hours
each day in mere reading, that is in simply devouring books and who do not analvze, compare,
and subject to their own jxiwers of discrimination what they icad, lose the capacity for vigorous effort and clear thinking.
The constant succession of impressions weakens attention. Neive force is exhausted. Ihe
eyes are strained. While ideas ptesent themselves and emotions are aroused, there is no real
growth in knowledge and jjower for each new
impression replaces one that preceded it, sweeps
it away, and in turn is removed.
People who read in this way book after book,
delude themselves with the notion that thev
are busy when, as a matter of fact, they are indulging in a foim ol idleness which is even worse
than swinging all day in a hammock half awake.
It is "a kind of gluttony" in which books are
devoured without digesting them.
At the end of a day or a week such readers
would be hard put to it to give any clear account
of anything that they have read. They have
simply Mattered their wits, disorganized their
reasoning powers, and blunted the edge of mehap-hazar-

sjx-n-

mory.

we sat and sipped cokes, five of them, until he
finished. He was shaking over the telephone,
and this is what he said:
