Campus Politics,'09-'51 The Cycle-20 For 25
By LEE SHEPPEARD
By LEE SHEPPEARD (University Daily Kansan City Editor)
(The last of a series of articles on campus politics through the years) In 1926 the Independent coalition was formed and won the spring election. It lost the next four to Pachacamac.
In 1931 the Oread-Kayhawk party was formed and won the spring election. It lost the next three to Pachacamac.
In 1935 the Progressive Student Government league was formed and won the spring election. It lost the next three to Pachacamac, tied one, and lost three after that. Almost begins to look like a cycle.
Then the men went off to war, and the campus political situation lost its simplicity. The women saw an opportunity to get out from under the old domination by the Men's Student Council, so they talked the outnumbered men into merging with Women's Student Governing association into an All Student Council.
And the women's combines flowered into political parties. One, W.I.G.S., allied with Pachacamac, and the other, P.W.C.L., with P.S.G.L. The latter pair won the spring election that year and split almost evenly with W.I.G.S., Pachacamac in 1944.
P. S.G.L. was the only one of these four parties controlled by independents, and the independents in the other three were dissatisfied with the state of things.
In 1945 the independent women pulled out of W.I.G.S. and P.W.C.L., and formed a party of their own, P.S.G.L. immediately split from P.W.C.L. and allied with the new Independent Women's party. That alliance won eight Council seats, W.I.G.S.—Pachacmac won seven, and the depleted P.W.C.L. got one.
In 1946 the men began to return. P.W.C.L. and W.I.G.S. were dissolved, and N.O.W. was formed. That party joined with Pachacamac to roll in the votes, and the duration was over.
In December, 1946, another Progressive party was formed. Like the "K.U. Progressives" of the 1930's, it seemed to achieve a large measure of cooperation with Pachaca-

Sue Ihinger, K.U. education junior, and Bill England, Pittsburgh State Teachers college, were elected cochairmen of the Kansas Y-district conference for 1951-52 at the conference held here April 6 and 7.
Miss Dorothy Reinhold, Y.W.C.A. secretary at the University, and T. William Hall, Pittsburg State Teachers college, were elected sponsors. The 1952 spring conference will be held at Pittsburg State Teachers college.
The recent meeting started April 6 when the Rev. William Hage, minister of the First Presbyterian church, Emporia, spoke on "Leaders as Followers." He spoke on the theme that "our task is not to better or perfect the world, but to perfect ourselves." He said that persons in Y-work should give deep thought to this.
On the morning of April 7, a worship service in Danforth chapel led by Southwestern college was held. Harold Kuebler, secretary of the west central area Y.M.C.A., Topeka, spoke on "The Essential Characteristics of 'Y-ism'."
Kuebler made two basic assumptions: "1. There is no student who is sincerate, who can't contribute something to the Y-movement; 2. All persons, even theologians could get something out of the Y movement."
A talk by Mrs. Ted Thornton, secretary of the University of Missouri Y.W.C.A., on "The Qualities of Leadership" at the banquet on April 7 concluded the conference. Mrs. Thornton gave a demonstration talk on a chart that had a triangle containing the words "I-Thou." From this triangle were pin-pointed several questions such as how a leader would react in a crisis. On the basis of these questions there was a group discussion.
mac. And so, although the Independent party got six Council seats in 1947, Pachacamac's five and the Progressives' four provided the heavy side of the balance of control.
Since 1926 Pachacamac has batted 800—20 for 25. Each of the five other major parties during that time has won one election—its first. Perhaps F.A.C.T.S. is next on the list.
