Quiet KU to Greet K-State Cat
Bv KEN BRONSON
Unless something happens quick the Kansas State football game may go down into history as one of the most quiet of all affairs between the two schools.
Unlike previous years when students from both schools went allout to provide fanfare for the contest, this year's pre-game hostilities have been about as loud as a wet firecracker.
Back in the good old days, according to a 1919 Kansan clipping, everyone got into the act of tearing down the opposition's property, painting both campuses, and other more violent acts on certain persons. And then things happened until 1929 when the two schools signed a peace pact.
The pact didn't deter the two schools in their pre-game squabbles. A few years after the pact was signed, the most stunning blow ever to be landed between the two schools was dealt with KU on the throwing end and K-State on the receiving end. K-State, affectionately known as "Cow College," was the proud possessor of two bovine beauties, a Shorthorn and a Black Angus, all sleek and fat in readiness for the
American Royal livestock show.
American boy. These two bosses achieved a much different kind of fame than was expected however, when it was discovered one morning that KU initials had been clipped into their well groomed sides.
The rivalry rose to such feverish heights in those days that virtually the entire student body would be called to defend its campus at night, before the night the cry, "The Aggies are Coming" would ring out over the campus.
The Aggies retaliated with one of their favorite punches, the one that is so blasphemous to the men of Green.
Student newspapers of both schools also got into the act. Kansan headlines referred to K-State as the "Cow College" and "Silo Tech." Neither seem to have lost their resonance.
It was found one morning soon after that the base of Uncle Jimmy Green had been daubed with purple paint and that the young Jayhawkor who stands beside him had been attired in a K-State sweater.
K-State had it pet terms, too. Probably the most common was, "KU—the only flaw in the Kaw," or
["Awk. Squawk. dead Hawk—PU."]
'Akw, Squawk, dead Hawk = C.
Revisions to the peace pact in 1949 stipulated that the entire student body would be responsible for any violations. This seemed to make it strong enough to stop, or at least, slow down, the traditional vandalisms.
But it didn't quite succeed. In 1950, Touchdown IV, Kansas State's live Wildcat mascot, was abducted by two carloads of KU students and brought to Lawrence. The feline spent less than hours later being hustled back to Manhattan at the insistence of law officers.
Saturday, Touchdown IV is returning to Lawrence under slightly different conditions. This time he is making the trip as the official mascot of the Kansas State football team. It will be his first road trip discounting the 1950 escapade, which K-State would like to forget.
And because riding in cars makes him nervous, Touchdown will be given nerve medicine before starting the trip.
The poor cat is probably still shaking from his last trip to Lawrence. If that trip didn't cure him, this one should.

Father of Student To Attempt Senate
Ewell Stewart, Toppea, father of Lynn Stewart, college junior, yesterday announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination to the U. S. Senate in 1954.
Mr. Stewart in a past campaign was a candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor. In 1950 he ran for the nomination as U. S. representative from the first congressional district and was nominated by the Democrats, but was defeated in the general election by a Republican.
In his announcement Mr. Stewart said prohibition will be the major issue in the 1954 campaign and accused the Republicans of welcoming the "booze flood that came to Kansas in 1948."

Time Runs Out On IM Debaters
Time ran out on the debaters last night, and they were not able to finish the intra-squid debate tournament as scheduled, but the championship contest will be held at 5 p.m., today Kent Shearer, assistant debate coach, said today.
In the final debate Lawrence Tretbar and Richard Smith, college juniors, will oppose William Arnold and Hubert Bell, also college juniors.
After losing, Tretbar and Smith defeated Margaret Smith, college sophomore, and Letty Lemon, journalism junior, eliminating them from the tournament.
Last night Arnold and Bell beat Trebar and Smith, handing them their first defeat of the tournament so far. Both teams now have one loss in the double elimination tournament.
In the tournament to select K.U. entries for the debate at Kansas State college Nov. 14, only one debate was held last night. William Means, business senior, and John Fields, college junior, defeated Dennis Knight and Robert Kimball, college freshmen.
After the second debate had been judged, it was too late to hold the championship contest, according to Mr. Shearer.
Walter Keller of the Kramer Posture Chair company in Kansas City spoke to the members of the "Industry Tuesday" on the topic, "Industry and the Chair."
He explained the manufacturing process of their chairs, listed the basic parts, which are interchangeable. The second function is *laws function* theory of design.

Upon completion of his work at Cornell Prof. Wilkins studied in Paris, Milan, and Munich.
He has appeared in leading tenor roles with the Grand Opera company of Milan and in such operettas as "Blossom Time," "The Desert Song" and "Die Fledermaus."
Mrs. Wilkins has sung for the Metropolitan Opera in New York, making her debut by replacing Lili Pons in "Lakme." She has appeared in recitals in Town Hall, New York and has been soloist with the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra, at the Lindsborg and Asheville Mozart festivals and at the University of Michigan.
The program will feature excerpts from Italian romantic opera and will include duets form Donizetti's 'L'Elisir d'Amore,' Verdi's "Otello," Puccini's "Tosca," and Boito's "Mefistofeile," and the "Mad scene" from Donzetti's "Lucia de Lammermeor."
Winfred Gallup will assist at the piano. The recital is open to the public without admission charge.
City Air No.1 Cancer Cause
New York —(U.P.)—The pollute air breathed by city dwellers, and not cigarette smoking, probably is the "principal" cause of the alarming increase in lung cancer in the past few decades, a cancer research scientist told the annual meeting of the American Cancer society.
"The increasing frequency of lung cancer in cities as compared with rural areas all over the world indicates that the atmosphere may be the principal cause of this disease," he said. "The agents responsible for the accelerated rate of lung cancer in man are almost universally distributed, and evidence points to the air we breathe as their source."
"Until it can be explained why many persons who never smoke get lung cancer, or why more cases develop in air-polluted cities than in rural areas, or why there is less cancer of the larynx than of the lung which smokes reaches last, smoking can be considered only as one possible source but not necessarily the principal offender.
Fraternity Loan Displayed
A collection of antique silver has been loaned to Alpha Rho Gamma, professional jewelry fraternity. A Salina jeweler provided the various pieces of silver which will be displayed until mid-November. The exhibit is on the third floor of Strong hall.
Two of KU's first line halfbacks, Don Hess and Ralph Moody, are sprinters on the track team as well. In the Big Seven conference meet last spring Hess finished a shade behind K-State's Thane Baker to take second in the 100-yard dash, while Moody, as a freshman last year, was clocked in 6.4 for the 60.
