Huge Centennial Dance
Slated For
Armory.
Definite plans for a bi-weekly
"bull session" where student lead­ers
may thrash out problems af­fecting
the University were laid
at the third annual Student Lead­ers
Breakfast held at the Iroquois
Park lodge last Sunday morning.
Evolving out of discussion of
pressing problems in which repre­sentatives
from various student
groups in the Liberal Arts, Speed
and Music chools were partici­pating,
the idea was put forward
to meet the inadequacy of one
single meeting during the year.
Representatives from the Law,
Dental, and Medical Schools are
being enlisted to secure closer co­operation
between the schools of
the University. Such informal
discussion meetings, the promoters
of the idea felt, would be more ef­fective
in creating a sympathetic
attitude between the schools than
some more regid organization.
· Meetings will be held on alter­nate
Thursday nights, beginning
October I6.
A gigantic dance, featuring a
nationally famous orchestra and
to be held in the 'Armory during
the Centennial Celebration was
proposed during the discussion of
Centennial plans to attract wide
attention to the University. It
would be no strictly University
affair, but the combination of a
famous dance orchestra and a low
admission charge, it was felt,
would attract not only large num­bers
of Louisville people, but peo-

over a long period of time.
Let's Join The Cards
At Hanover Saturday
Saturday morning, October ro,
at ten o'clock students will leave
on chartered buses for Hanover,
Indiana, to see the annual tussle
between the University of Louis­ville
and Hanover.
Tickets are $I .30 round trip
and are on sale at the bookstore
or from any Student Council
member.
In order that the students of
the university may become bet­ter
acquainted with the organi­zation
of the university book­stores,
.md because of the dis­content
registered by many of
the students about the prices·
charged at the bookstou. the
Student C.Juncil of the College
of Liberal Arts has taken it
upon itself to investigate the
present situation concerning
the management of the store
and present its report to the
student body. -
The campus bookstore is
operated exclusively by the
university, as a service to the
students, all accrued profits
going into the fund of the divi­sion
in which the store is oper­ated.
Branches are located at
the Medical School, Dental
School, Law School, and the
Louisville Municipal Sthool for
Negroes. Mr. John Gable is
the manager. Last year, the
most prosperous year the ,!look-store
has enjoyed, there was a
profit of $4,970-40 made. Thi:;
profit included a rental fee of
$I ,2oo paid by the Crutcher
Dental Dept. at the Dental
School. This was I I % of the
net profit sales. The campus
store alone made a profit of
$I,360.64 or 5.9% of the net
profit sales. It has been point­ed
out that the bookstore does
not include among its expenses}
rental, heat and light, and gen­eral
upkeep. These expenses
would ordinarily have l>c en
charged by the university if a
private concern would be run­ning
the store.
The Student Council (:On­siders
this report to be a serv­ice
to th& students, and wi11
continue to investigate and al­leviate
all discontents prevalent
among the student body.

Art work of several University
of Louisville students is bejng
featured in the current exhibit at
the Speed Museum, among them
Vicki Aboud, Helen Leopold,
George Lighton, and Mrs. W. C.
Mallalieu (wife of Dr. MallaJieu)
of the history department).
The exhibit is no-jury, meaning
that work may be exhibited with­out
having passed any review or
criticism. It includes work of
Kentucky and Southern Indiana
artists.
"AU students of the University
should be interested in the ex­hibit,"
said Dr. Krautheimer of
the Art department, "not only be­cause
some of their fellow students
are among the exhibitors, but be­cause
it gives them an opportunity
to judge with their own eyes be­fore
being exposed to the judge­ments
of others read in advance,
and it brings them into close con­tact
with the art work of their own
community. The Speed Museum
deserves much appreciation for i ~s
efforts to display the work of arc··
ists who might otherwise remain
unknown.''
Stophers Wins Office
As Barristers Battle
A bitterly contested struggle
which found the slate studded
with "dark horses" marked the
complete upheaval of the "ma­chine
boys" in the Sophomore
class election at the Law School
In the presidential race, Joseph
Stopher succeeded James Fahey,
as chairman Randall Bertram of
the opposition came almost to
fisticuffs.
Vice-Presidential office was
filled by Joseph Turner. The com­bined
offices of Secretary and
Treasurer are held for 1936 by
James Taylor, and Edward Groves
took upon the responsibilities of
Student Council Representative.
N~ver in the .history of Law
School politics had partisanship
become so involved, necessitating
the removal of "discussion" inter­val,
prominent in past elections.
