University of Louisville - Thoroughbred Yearbook (Louisville, KY)

Text from Pages 1 - 14 of the 1943 volume:

THE KEY ” ARCHIVES © DO NOT CIRCULATE ae nae Me Set ss Ny, i) Cs = RPORATED JUNE, 1943 Archives Goreword The Thoroughbred has been discontinued “for the duration.” The Class of 1943 realized that, has realized it ever since last June. Yet somehow we have been reluctant to leave the Univer- sity without some pictorial record of our four years. Consequently, in the last few weeks of our college career we have attempted to publish The Key. We hope that this “key” will, whenever you turn to it, open for you the doors to your | college memories. Without the aid of our patrons and advertisers this publica- } tion would have been impossible. However they have helped us even beyond our expectations and hopes. We sincerely thank | them, and trust that this magazine has been completed to their | satisfaction, and to yours. You will find here the story of those students who, on May 30, 1943, will graduate from the University of Louisville. We wish them luck. 100 Year Plan of The University RAYMOND ASA KENT PRESIDENT OF THE UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE 1929 to 1943 This book is respectfully dedicated to the memory of Dr. Kent. m4 4aD Review Like everything else the University of Louisville has changed during this past year. The Class of ’43—which started out as any average class— has in the last year become a “war baby”, with a rather unusual history. We were saddened by the double loss of Dr. Kent and Justice Brandeis —two of U. of L.’s greatest friends and benefactors. Our school spirit—over which we have had so much controversy— increased by leaps and bounds. Our football team, while not sensational, had a good season, and was well-supported. Inter-collegiate basketball was done away with “for the duration.’”’ However a well-organized intramural program was set up, and sports continued “full speed ahead” on the campus. There were changes in our scholastic life. The trimester plan was put into effect. Co-operative Work came into its own in the Liberal Arts Col- iege. The Christmas holidays were moved a week ahead. The Thoroughbred was another thing discontinued ‘‘for the duration.” Best known of the scholastic changes was the coming of the Navy to U. of L. Dormitories are at present being built for the boys who are to take further college training in Louisville. Politics were as important, and as controverted, as ever. However here was a year for definite action in this field. We saw the establishment of the All-Campus Student Council—long a dream of many U. of L. students. The year saw many changes in our extracurricular and social activities. Three Queens were chosen to reign at various dances. The Junior Prom, one of our biggest dances, was strictly informal. Boys left the campus, one by one, and in groups of twenty and thirty, tor the armed services. Beta Tau Chi fraternity disbanded for the duration because of the man-power shortage. If boys continue to leave at such a rapid rate it seems possible that other groups might be forced to do the same thing. Alpha Zeta, social fraternity, became Alpha Chi Chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon. The College of Cardinals became Beta Epsilon Circle of Omicron Delta Kappa, National Honorary leadership fraternity. Some of our class have graduated early—because of the accelerated program. Others of the class have left to work in defense plants, and still more have gone into the armed forces. Despite our “normal” start this, our last year, has not been an average one. But we do believe that it has been a good one. George C. Howard Kappa Alpha, Secty., '41-'42, Pres., 42- 43; Secty. Jr. Class; Pres.
