Both Parties Claim Lead in Congress
Washington—(U.P.)—Republicans claimed today they will capture both houses of Congress in tomorrow's voting. Democrats confidently predicted they will strengthen their present majorities.
Privately, strategists of both parties agreed that whoever wins the presidential election will carry the House. It would take something like a Republican landslide, however, to dislodge the Democrats from control of the Senate.
Congressional elections will be held in 47 states tomorrow to elect 432 of the 435 representatives and 34 of the 96 senators. Maine elected a Republican senator and three Republican House members in its election Sept. 8. The present lineup:
House Senate
House Senate
Democrats 230 49
Republicans 200 46
Independent 1 1
Vacancies 4 0
Forty-nine Senate seats and 218
Frosh Vote Vital-Hazlett
The importance of every freshman's vote in Wednesday's elections was stressed today by Richard Hazlett, FACTS candidate for freshmen men's representative to the All Student Council.
"The important thing is that everybody vote," he added.
Janie Snyder, candidate for freshman women's ASC representative on the FACTS ticket, reported a growing interest in the election on the part of the freshman women.
"We are making a special effort to reach those in unorganized houses and private homes," Hazlett said. "Their votes count just as much as those from the organized halls."
She attributed it to the part FACTS has had in bringing the housing situation to the public eye.
"If I'm elected I believe I can help to do something about this housing problem. Everyone, especially the girls, knows that something should be done about it," she asserted.
Orchestra Plays For Topeka Audience
The 75-member University orchestra will play a concert for the State Teacher's convention in Topeka at 1:30 p.m. Thursday in the Topeka High school auditorium.
The program will include suite from the ballet "The Swan Lake" by Tschaikowsky; "Kol Nidrei" by Bruch; scherzo from "Midsummer Night's Dream" by Mendelssohn; Adagio from "The Faithful Shepherd" by Handel, and excerpts from "Symphony No. 2" by Brahms.
Lyle Wolfram, fine arts senior,
will be featured as a cello soloist
in "Kol Nidrei." Eugene Johnson,
fine arts senior, will be flute soloist
in "The Faithful Shepherd."

House seats are needed for control.
House seats are needed for control. The political party electing a president normally wins control of both houses of Congress. The last case of a divided victory was in 1916, when Woodrow Wilson was elected along with a Democratic Senate and a Republican House.
by the Dancer's Cobbler
Of the 34 Senate seats at stake, 20 are now held by Republicans and 14 by the Democrats. Five of the Democrats are Southernners assured of election, leaving the GOP just nine states to convert their present minority into a majority.
Sen. Earle C. Clements of Kentucky, chairman of the Democratic Senatorial campaign committee, predicted Democrats will win 19 of the Senate contests, including seven seats now held by Republicans. These seven are in Indiana, Massachusetts, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, Utah, and Washington.
GOP campaigners see their best chances of unseating incumbent Democrats in Michigan, Maryland, Wyoming, and Connecticut. They also look hopefully but with less confidence at Democratic seats at stake in West Virginia, New Mexico, and Kentucky.

Campaign Has Featured Firsts, Mosts
Washington — (U.P.)— It has been a weird, and wonderful campaign.
Whichever side wins tomorrow, Dwight D. Eisenhower and Adlai E. Stevenson can be sure the 1952 campaign will get more than passing mention by historians of U.S. politics.
It has been packed with "firsts"
and "mosts," with strange parallels
and odd contrasts, and with record
highs and brand new lows.
For one thing, the nominees, and their running mates established a political "first" this year by publicizing their personal financials. They dumped so many figures onto the front pages that some newspaper
Canadian Odds Favor Adlai
Ottawa, Ont.—(U.P.)-Betting odds at the select Rideau club, across the street from the Canadian parliament buildings, today favored Adilai Stevenson 3-to-2 in tomorrow's presidential election.
The Professor Who Couldn't Say "No"
Both presidential candidates frequently switched from whistle-stopping by train to city-hopping by plane, making more appearances in a weekend than candidates of other years did in a week.

Other candidates have used TV and radio.

Next moring the evidence was in. In *tegrams . . . hundreds of 'em' . . . on the Professor's desk, from practically everybody on the Campus. All bearing the same message: "Printwhistle must not Flunk, Old Blackstrap needs him. This Approach is his Idea."
editoralists begged them to stop it.

Telegrams work wonders. They're grade-A Date Bait, great for coaxing cash from home, practical for arranging anything from a Weekend to a Job Interview. When you want to get inside the Opponent's ten-yard line . . . let Western Union carry the ball.
Adlai introduced the TV fireside chat and Ike countered in the last two weeks of the campaign with a barrage of both TV and radio "spot" programs.

It was a unique campaign in many ways. No Republican candidate before him ever campaigned as vigorously as Ike in the South. He invaded Dixie four times.
Stevenson established a record of some sort by promising to toss out of Washington the crooks who got there via his own party.
Eisenhower let himself he pushed into politics only a few weeks before the convention in which he won the nomination. Stevenson resisted the
"draft" right up to the moment balloting started at the Democratic convention.

In one respect, however, the 1952 campaign has been like all the others before. Each side has done its worst to prove the other's nominee a bum.
