The pifskin caties who will present an organized bedlam between games of the Kentucky Berea
doubleheader next Wednesday are pictured above during their first rehearsal. From left to right in
the left trio are Pete Vires, Harry Brown and Joe Shepherd. The right trio includes Sherman
John Vincent Robinson and Bill MrC'uhbi n. The object of their affection is Lloyd Ramsey.
This septet will perform the famous "Dance of the Seven Veils" at the bargain bill. All proceeds will
go to the swimming team's traveling fund. After the show, the rugged beauties, with improvised

high-ligh-

"Night Club Scandal" is a mystery picture involving murder and
intrigue while "Music for Madame,"
in direct contrast, is a light musisprinkled
cal comedy plentifully
with the songs of Nino Martini.
The second chapter of "The
American Toreador," an old silent
melodrama, will be shown, with the
students in attendance asked to
furnish the sound effects. The
management of the Strand wishes
to commend last week's audience
for its efforts but suggests that the
students be more hearty this time
in their interpretation of the proper
sound for the drama.
Accompanying the main features
will be a cartoon comedy and a
Jimmy Lunceford band short.
Price of admission will be sixteen
cents when accompanied by the
coupon which appears elsewhere in
today's paper. Two students will be
admitted on one ticket.

Poster Contest
Announcement of a poster con
test, sponsored by tthe American
Student Union, was made yesterday
by club officials. The posters must
carry out the idea of boycotting
Japanese-mad- e
goods and will be
judged on originality and effectiveness.
Prizes for the posters selected as
best by the Judges, will be awarded
to the winners by Charles Wing,
Lexington.
All persons entering the contest
must submit their posters to Prof.
C. R. Bamhart of the University
art department by December 15.
The winners will be announced the
following day by the Judges who

of potassium and that salt is necessary to maintain a balance. Salt, she says, contains a lot of
chloride. Things like this come to us as revelations. They give us the impression that we are
hojx'lessly inferior to scientists in general. What
chance have we, who look upon a potato merely
as a potato, to get anvwhere in this world, or the

A friend

We got lost in the engineering building again
yesterday and while wandering about in the
thing, we came face to face vith a sign on a
stamp dispensing machine which said, "Whv
not write home?" We always try to answer these
little questions that we see posted around, but
this one caused us some trouble. Our first answer was that we didn't want to write home because they always get the best of us at home.
The last time we wrote home it was for money
and the answer was, "Why don't you quit trying
for those inside straights?" We finally decided
that we weren't going to write home ever again.
No little sign on a stamp dispensing machine is
going to tell us what to do!

Rent ut kv lost to Yandcibilt in the opener and
tandid observers rtjxnt that it was the first Rentutky team they had seen that lost but still kept
fighting. Surely that is evidence that this year's
lootball representatives have attained a new attitude of mind; and by doing so it has regained
its piestige in real football aiistocracy.
The old order has changed and yielded place

Four sentimental young ladies, Lyl Warwick,
Mary Ellen De Maro, Clare Piggot. and Ann
Trent, were sitting in the Tavern the other evening vith an emaciated looking little chap named
Ixigan. I.ogan must have been about six years
old and the girls were collecting money for him
to take home to his mother. They fed him too.
