Hollywood’s Margaret Tallichet
To Star In Little Theatre Play
Mr. Boyd Martin announced
today that Miss Margaret Tal-ischet
will appear at the Play-house
in a Little Theatre produc-tion.
Miss Tallichet, who Mr.
Martin found working in a movie
executives office, has promised to
return to Louisville as soon as
possible in order to start rehear-sals.
The play in which she was to
be starred was originally sched-uled
for the 15; 16, and 17 of
November. However, due to the
great demand for her services she
was forced to return to New
York after brief visit to this city.
Unless she can return very soon,
the play will probably be some-time
later in the month, said Mr.
Martin.
While here Miss Tallichet par-ticipated
in the Kentuckiana
Style Show. On her departure she
stated that she hoped to return
by the end of the week so that
she might be present at one of
the performances of ‘‘Bov Meets
Girl.” However, she has not as
yet returned.

Dr. K. P. Vinsel
Made Director
Of Welfare Group
Dr. Kenneth P. Vinsel, head of
the department of political
science, who served last year as
Director of Public Welfare, was
elected Director of the American
Public Welfare Association at a
meeting in Indianapolis.
During the summer, Dr. Vinsel

SPEED SCHOOL FULLY ACCREDITED
Ranks First
In Southeast
Out of a total of 18 engineer-ing
schools in the southeastern
part of the United States, the
Speed Scientific. School was the
only one to be fully accredited
in every department, it was an-nounced
last week by a member
of the accrediting committee of
the Engineering Council for Pro-fessional
Development. This dis-trict
includes such schools as
Georgia Tech, Virginia Polytech-nic
Institute, University of Ken-tucky,
University of Tennessee
and University of Alabama.
Said Speed School Dean B. M.
Brigman, “This accrediting, while
it makes us very happy, is a chal-lenge
to our future work and the
faculty accepts the challenge. We
intend to utilize every effort not
only to justify this honor, but to
improve on it.”
Not only was Speed accredited
in every engineering department,
but they also received credit in
the service courses, namely, Eng-lish,
mathematics, physics, chem-istry,
drawing and economy.
A statement by President R.
A. Kent reads, “This is splendid*
recognition of the work which
Dean Brigman and his faculty
have been doing at the Speed
School. It did not ‘just happen.’
It is the result of long-continued,
concerted effort. ‘
“It is the feature of this year’s
significance to the University by
the Association of American Uni-versities.”
Speed School is still the only
engineering school in this part of
the country that has an accredit-ed
course in chemical engineering,
and in step with this, Dr. R. C.
French Department Holds First
Of Student, Faculty Tea Meets
A series of teas to be spon-sored
by the various departments
throughout the school year was
inaugurated by the French de-partment
last week at a reception
in the Women’s Building, attend-ed
by approximately 55 students.
Although there is an even divi-sion
between freshmen and upper-classmen
in the French depart-ment,
a greater number of upper-classmen
were present at the tea
in proportion to the enrollment.
The faculty was represented by
Mr. and Mrs. Charles MaMahon,
Mr. and Mrs. Harold H. Millott,
and Dean Hilda Threlkeld.
When asked if the tea was a
success, Mr. McMahon said, “The
tea accomplished what we hoped
it would: promotion of good will
and fellowship between the fac-ulty
and the student body.
THANKS
The “L” Club wishes to thank
the student body for its patronage
last Friday night in buying mega-phones.
All proceeds go to the
Athletic Fund, and by using these
megaphones, the cheering section
can be improved tremendously.
Bring these yell-stimulators to
the remaining games, especially
the coming one. If you haven’t
purchased one vet, get a mega-phone
next Saturday night.
