PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THE KANSAN COMMENTS Women Campaign For Freshman Vote Women's politics on the Hill has developed into a genteel free-for-all as freshman election approaches. Party alignments have been ignored by maurauding campaigners, and the presence of a freshman woman in a house make it open season for both parties. The aggressive WIGS have left no potential voter untouched in their gigantic offensive to win Thursday's election. Last spring the WIGS campaigned so strenuously that they lost themselves the majority, the PWCLs picking it up on the rebound. WIGS Have Clever Signs Using the same progressive methods, the WIGS have chosen their freshman candidate from Corbin hall in an attempt to split the 130-woman dormitory, which had been aligned before with PWCL to the extent that that party elected a Corbin member to the Council last spring. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1943 By the use of clever signs for the party, "The WIGS Go On A-Head," and for the candidate, "Get in the Swim With Sammy Smith," the WIGS have kept the campus well-notified of their intention to win. Play Made for Negroes, Ind'p'ts The PWCLs on the other hand, although reciprocating with signs for their candidate, have not campaigned so wholeheartedly. They probably expect to lose the freshman election, but still maintain their majority. The amusing aspect of the campaign is the great play both parties make for the independent and Negro women. To hear either party's "spiel" is to learn that that is the only independent party on the campus, and certainly the only one with the interests of the independents at heart. It is likely that the sorority women would get complexes some day with so much attention given the independents, if it were not that they were the ones giving it out. The Election Is Not Significant Because PWCL elected June Mack to the Council last spring, that party considers itself the sole protector and upholder of Negro rights. On the other hand, the WIGS at every opportunity have made a play for Negro support. The situation resembles two dogs growling over a bone that is patient about it all but would just as soon not be made the object of so much attention. This election is not significant politically, but if it is to be regarded as a testing ground for next spring's election, the WIGS will carry that hands down. However, by that faroff time the PWCLs will probably have pulled several rabbits out of the hat they throw in the ring. In any case, the most interesting thing to watch in the present election is Corbin's reaction to being "split up." Journalism Students To Reorganize Club Students enrolled in journalism classes and students on the campus interested in journalism will attend the first meeting of the Press club at 4:30 tomorrow afternoon in the Journalism building, Elmer F. Beth, acting chairman of the department, has announced. Opportunities in journalism will be reported at the meeting by Prof. L. N. Flint and Professor Beth, whose report will be followed by a discussion period. Reorganization of the club for the year will be accompanied by an election of officers. Refreshments will be provided following the meeting by the University Daily Kansan and served by Theta Sigma Phi, honorary women's journalism sorority. Have You Met Sammy?—Adv. Rock Chalk Talk By LIZ BAKER Snake tracks—Big game hunters Martha Rayl, Nancy Teichgraeber, and Mary Frances Neidig were sitting tranquilly in the art office atop Dyche Museum one sunny afternoon when a zoo lab assistant invited them in to see the newly arrived horned rattlesnakes. Lured by the call of higher knowledge, the three ventured into the "pickle" room where Martha nonchalantly inquired, "Why the white powder on the floor?" Their guide, with an airy wave of hand, replied, "One of our snakes got away today and he'll leave his trail in that powder." So goes the story, that any such trail was completely obliterated by three sets of outward bounding footprints. *** Frat party, 1943—Herewith we record the latest stant on the everpopular frat party, with the Sig Alphas and their dates gathering at the chapter house for calisthenics after a romantic evening aboard hay racks. First padding the floor with "sheddings" from jeans and sweaters, the hosts then proceeded to demonstrate their manly strength and grace. Particularly outstanding in this respect was Ev Folger, who gave a brilliant performance balancing the upthrust feet of many a brother acrobat. *** A slip can be a social error—As a certain Mary (let her remain otherwise anonymous) can testify. Bent Appoint Vandergrift Marine Commandant Washington, (INS)—Appointment of Lt. Gen. Alexander A. Vandergrift, the hero of Guadalcanal, as Commandant of the Marine Corps effective January 1st was announced today. He will succeed Lt. Gen, Thomas Holcomb, who has been Commandant of the Marine Corps for seven years. The announcement was made by Secretary of Navy Knox. Tau Sigma and WAA Meet Tonight A joint meeting of Tau Sigma, dancing sorority, and WAA has been called for 7 o'clock tonight at Robinson gymnasium, Miss Joie Stapleson, WAA sponsor, announced today. Plans for the service men's dancing class, which these organizations are sponsoring, will be discussed. Girls, Are You A C.M.B?—Adv. over an ironing board one night, she shot out an arm to the shrillling phone at her side. A male voice politely requested that the girl in the third window on the front pull down her shade. After sedately thanking him, Mary and the voice continued to chat as it declared itself to be single and lonesome. "That girl is still standing there in her slip ironing," the voice exclaimed suddenly. Paralyzed, Mary murmured, "I'll go right down and tell her," dropped the phone on the hook and a hot iron on the floor. *** A wet party—The Watkins Hall girls thought they rather overdid the "flowing bowl" act at their open house Saturday night when the spigot on an old-fashioned barrel of punch refused to be adjusted and a steady stream of punch flowed forth for the greater part of the evening. And then there was the case of Ann Stevens who displayed her familiarity with a beer mug by pouring the purple punch contents down the front of a beloved blue velvet formal. ** Eyes through key holes are upon you—The most audited class on the hill, at present at least, is the modern dancing class (feminine) held in the east gym of Robinson. Despite the fact that the auditors (masculine) are forced to "audit" through cracks and key holes in the intervening doors, the number is increasing daily. Campus Parking Violators To Be Discussed by ASC A partial list of parking violators was turned over to Peggy Davis, president of ASC, said Clifton Calvin, member of the University parking committee. The remainder of the list will be completed next week, but the Council is expected to act on the first list of names at the meeting tonight. George Dick of McLouth, regular end on the varsity football team the last three seasons, was elected honorary captain of the team for the 1943 season last night at a dinner given by the Kansas Relays Club for the squad and coaches.
