The most enthusiastic pep meeting

o'clock, on the eve of the Washington and .Lee game. Nearly all of
the student body was there, as well
as many alumni and faculty members.

brilliant performance under the direction of John Lewis, and the students responded wholeheartedly to
the leadership of the cheer leaders,
J. B. Croft, J. D. Haggard, Pete
Reinninger and Lucy Jean Anderson.
Croft acted as chairman for the

meeting,
which was sponsored by

and Haggard explained some new

skyward by rousing cheers and thun

meeting.
Dr. Frank L. McVey was intro

pointedly about the necessity and
power of the "will to win" as a factor

Dr. Curran Pope's Will Speci
fies That Money Must Be
Used for Erection of Memorial Building at Some
Kentucky School
Louisville, Ky.. Oct. ' 1. (INS)
Most of an $85,000 estate was be
queathed by the will of Dr. Curran
Pope, who committed suicide Sep
tember 21, for the erection of a memorial building at "some university,
preferably University of Kentucky,
University of Louisville or Berea
College." The will was probated
Monday before County Judge Ben F.
Ewlng. .
Although Doctor Pope specified
that the building should possess
utility rather than beauty," should
be used for educational purposes
along physical and sclentiflo lines
and should bear his full name, he
made no mention of the manner In
which the university to be his bene
ficiary should be selected. v
Direct Consultation
He did, however, direct that the
United States Trust company, which
qualified asexecutor, should consult
with Henry J. Tllford and Milton
Yandell about details of carrying
out the bequest.
Doctor Pope specified that the'
building must be erected within 21
years of his death and that to qualify for the bequest a university must
pledge Itself, in the event its loca
tion is changed, to erect at its new
quarters a similar building, giving
Doctor Pope's full name.
In the event all of the money
turned over to the university to be
selected Is not used for construction
and equipping of the building, he
directed the remainder to be utilized
for scholarships for worthy and
Indigent students.

Luck beamed upon them.
It was a battle of Kentuckian
against Kentuckian,
because the
Kentucky boys in both lineups were
the ones who were in the spotlight
at all times. Both Johnson and
Ellis were from Ashland, and were
former teammates,
but Saturday
they tried to outdo each other, and
Ellis was the more successful. His
punting was the outstanding feature of the game, and many people
say that he is a second Kercheval.
The stands were crowded, that is,
crowded for the kind of a day it
turned out to be. Most of them In
raincoats and slickers of many different descriptions and colors. A
group of men came to the game
with fishermen hats and a large
piece of canvas.
A pitchers battle is oft said of
baseball games, and Saturday's
game could be classified as the
same, only changing the pitchers
to kickers. The statistics show that
there were a total of 71 punts, from
which you can draw your own conclusions. Kentucky only tried 16
running plays from the line of
scrimmage, while the Oenerals tried
about 25. Washington and Lee Is
noted for their aerial attack, but
not once did they try a pass against
the Wildcats, and the Kentucky
boys only tried three, and none of

Another coincident of the game
was that there were two "00" numbered Jerseys, one belonging to McMillan, and the other to Arnold,
the General's left halfback. McMillan pulled the smartest play of the
game when he called for a fair
catch of a punt, and then kept
moving one foot after catching the
ball. The Washington and Lee boys
must have thought he was going to
run, because they all pounced on
penalhim, and received a

FACT AND THEORY
What were the causes of the

de-

pression? We, mere victims of the
sacrifice, shall attempt to set forth
a practical explanation,
a man-maexplanation of a man-macreation ,a veritable cataclasm that
has shaken established foundations
of an economic world, and toppled
to destruction the mighty towers of
finance.
It is our theory, based upon actual
fact, that antecedents of the depression date eback, not five years, not
te nyears, but back to the war, the
World War, a disaster jn itself. One
hundred and twenty-si- x
billions of
dollars, fifteen million lives all
swept away In a debacle of blood
and gore. Is not that enough to
shatter the morale of a grief stricken
nation, its banners held aloft only
through the fervor and devotion of
a patriotic people?
The feeling of patriotism is a
marvelous thing, yet actions Inspired by It are not always sound in
reasoning.
During and after the
war, enormous sums of money were
lent willingly to ally nations which
could offer no security.
But the
sense of comradeship ran high, too
high for safe investment, and unjustifiable assistance was given
cheerfully to weaker countries. We
are still endeavoring to collect most
of the loans, fifteen years later.
With the war came a spirit of

de

--

and gambling which
pervaded the world In general, and
this country in particular. Living
expenses were high, but so were
wages and, consequently, America
busied herself with the present, and
neglected to think seriously of the
future.
And then there was the advent of
the machine age. Ah, if we could
Avarice,
have but looked ahead!
greed, selfishness, swirling over and
engulfing democracy; the rise of
capitalism; the downfall of humanity!
Mass production was Introduced.
Manufacturing activities since 1900
have surpassed all that was done
during the previous twenty centurIs
ies; but today unemployment
greater than it has been for twenty
centuries. According to official statistics, factories In the United States
produced in the last ten years 42
per cent more merchandise than was
turned out in the previous ten years,
and with 500,000 fewer Workers
employed.
In 1929 industries upon which 40
per cent of our wage earners depend for a living employed 900,000
fewer workers than in 1919, still
productio nsliowed a 50 per cent
increase: railroads Increased their
business seven per cent, with 250.000
fewer employees; coal mines dug 23
per cent more coal, with approximately 100,000 fewer miners working.
Of one fact we are certain that
the worst of the depression has been
passed. It is our job, as young
Americans, to study the causes, the
results of this period, and attempt,
whenever another such
threatens, to be prepared and able
to cope with it.

THE VOICE OF BEAUTY
I hear the voice of beauty crying
out to me
From every lean hollyhock, from
every tree;
I hear It sob with pain In ev'ry
stream running wild,
And listen to it chnnt In the eyes of
a young child.
I feel my heart respond to the
rhythm of Its tune
In every blade of corn, In each new
crescent moon.
I hear the voice of beauty crying out
to me
glory of the
In the
grass.
you, I answer low,
And remembering
"I know thee.
Oh Beauty, but in peace let me
pass!"
