Bernie Shlvely's varsity

at 3 p. m. this afternoon on Stoll
field. The freshman track team,
which has been practicing for the
past several weeks, will engage the
Berea Frosh team at the same time.
Against Hanover Saturday the
Cats were handicapped by the
muddy conditions of the field which
accounted for the poor times In
most of the running events. Ben
Willis, sophomore dash star, was
once more high point man for Kentucky with 15 points, scored in winning the 220 yard dash, and the
high and low hurdles.
Walker and Willis were disqualified in the 100 yard dash when they
had too many false starts. Nevers
again took first in the discus throw
and "Bud" Hocker came through
with a double victory In the mile
and two mile runs. Billy Ford won
handily to his favorite distance, the
half mile event.
The Berea teams have always
given the Wildcats plenty of trouble
and It is expected that they will extend Coach Shlvely's teams to the
limit this afternoon. The varsity
and freshman events will be run
simultaneously
so that all the
events will be concluded In regulation time.

As principal speaker for the evening, .Judge Dawson gave a very

human, conservative in sentiment, and morally up to date. In
this play Mr. Rice has taken for
his central figure, a prominent
Jewish criminal and divorce lawyer
who has risen from New York's
East Side gutters to the top of the
New York bar, married a Gentile
society lady whom he takes seriously as an aristocrat and worships as
the perfect woman, and who combines a large degree of charlatanism with a great many profoundly
human Impulses.
Certain sections of the play like
the first scene in the lawyer's office
create an atmosphere so admirably that they could stand by
themselves as complete sketches;
time and time again one is moved
Irresistibly to laughter by the exquisite rightness of some remark
made by an office boy, a telephone
operator, or a dowager from the
East Side. However, In some Instances, action and motion are sacrificed for detail, which is, of
course, to create a background.
The play is serious In its undercurrent for It Is concerned with the
personal tragedy of George Simon,
the Jewish lawyer, who is compelled by force of circumstance to
wander through certain of the not
too attractive back alleys of practice, but the effect is primarily the
effect of comedy, and the whole is
lifted to a high level by the presence of a gallery of caricatures so
justly drawn that they become, perhaps, not caricatures at all. but
rather portraits which, are funny
chiefly because they are to exquisitely lifelike.
This play has many very apt acting possibilities, and It profits by
the presence in It of Katherlne
