Roosevelt Wins First of Battles Over Embargo
- Senators Will Debate Revision of Neutrality On Cash and Carry Plan Basis
Washington, Sept. 28. —(UP)—President Roesch vowed the first major skirmish of his neutrality revision fight today when the Senate Foreign Relations Committee voted a favorable report on a bill repressing the arms embargo and sent it to the floor for debate beginning Monday.
The first change from the original draft would exempt U.S. shipping and airlines operating in the western hemisphere from complying with the general prevention against American travel in belligerent areas. As now drawn, the vessels or planes make all but negligible assignments at alleged possessions in the New World would be permitted to continue doing so.
The measure, which faces a "Hell To Break Food" fight by isolations it is substantially the same as drafted by Democratic members of the Committee last weekend, eliminating the embargo in favor of a modified cash-and-carry plan of selling American arms and supplies to all belligerents.
In its final form, it departs from the original draft only in two relatively important particulars, one of which is the "gift" to the bi-partisan insulation blaze.
The second revision further narrows presidential discretion in administering the act by banning commercial credits to belligerent nations which are in default on their paymeter for previous purchases in this country. The bill originally authorized certain instances could authorize 90-day, non-renewable credits to belligerent buyers.
Pittman stressed that the western hemisphere exemption for airlines and sea vessels does not apply to cargoes but merely to the transportation of mail and passengers. He added that it would not permit sea vessels to carry passengers or mail to Canada which, however, in the language of the bill can receive goods from the United States shipped by inland waterways and existing land facilities.
He explained that without the exception "Pan-American Airways planes would find it almost impossible to fly to South America because of the necessity of refuelling at Trinidad and Martinique". British and French possessions respectively, in the Caribbean.

Both the majority and minority groups of the committee plan to file written reports now and Monday, amplifying their arguments for or against the new measure and setting the tone for the Pitman will open as the administrator's foreign policy spokesmen in the senate.
[Nother group laid down their arguments during today's committee meeting, both having agreed that the best procedure was to get the issue to the floor as soon as possible. The length of the committee session was attributed to the credit revision the shadow cabinet recommended to prevent any hampering of U.S. trade in the Gulf of Mexico and South America.
In its present form the bill would permit the United States to sell war equipment and other supplies to all belligerents who are willing to assume title to the goods before they leave American shores and then transport them in their own vessels. The transports to the American cash basis, since the on a strict cash basis, since the 90-day extensions of credit provided the belligerent purchaser is not in default on previous orders.

A Sparkling Baton --- A Champion Twirler for K.U.
When a dog bites a man, that's old stuff, but when a girl batons twister—and a national champion at that—it's not old stuff.
And that is just what happened last night at the Lawrence Fall Window unwelling when Miss Saraleigh Shorman, c'43, the first girl ever to appear in the band, made her debut strutting with 100 men.
Miss Sherman was head drum major of the Topeka high school 100-piece band and has won state and national honors with her baton. In addition to winning first place at all state contests in 1937, 1938, and 1939, she was awarded first place at the National Music Festival held at Omaha in April, 1938, and again at Colorado Springs last May.
a. August, 1938. Mss Sherman entered the Chicago national contest for drum majors held at Soldier's Field, before 150,000 persons and at which 36 states and Canada were represented.
When the contest ended she walked off with first place and a national championship in her possession.
"When the winners of the contest were announced, I thought my name was called for second place," said Sara-lena, "and I felt pretty good about it. But when they were announced again, my name was called for first place and I was so thrilled I could hardly walk across the stage."
Saralene excels in speed, smoothness, and ambidexterity. She is the only drum major who has perfected and used the "one finger high throw" which is accomplished by rapidly twirling the baton on one finger, then tossing it into the air, and catching it on the same foot.
Miss Sherman learned the art two years ago when visiting in Boston with a cousin who is a drum major for a Boston high school.
"I became interested and started practicing," Sara-lena says, "Only at first I didn't like it. Later on I got accustomed to twirling and practiced mostly in the yard."
Saralena also confessed that once when she was twirling in the living room, her baton mission its goal to keep the ball going.
The champion twirler finds that practicing requires a lot of time and patience. Before she went to Chicago,

Ise Back from Month's Study In Washington
Dr. John Joseph, professor of economics, returned Wednesday night from Washington, D.C., where for the past month he has assisted the Te m porary National Economic committee in research.
The committee is conducting an extensive study of the extent to which monopoly pervades industry today.
Professor Ise, prominent in economic circles, highly praised the committee's work. He pointed out that the committee was not making an attempt to bring charges against particular individuals or firms. Instead, the investigation was intended to open the road for the solving of the economic problem resulting from monopoly.
Business men as well as economists testified in the hearings of the economic committee, Doctor lies pointed out. In his testimony he revealed that his research had shown evidences of possible monopoly in the market he recommended that it legislate be enforced to solve the problem.
"Some of our states," Doctor Lee pointed out in his testimony, "have gone far in their recognition of the public aspects of exploitation, and in their efforts to prevent the wasting of natural resources. There is little doubt that they must so use these resources that government will have to render much more help than it has bitherto been able to offer."
Professor Ise is the author o,

First Chance For Henry's Fighting Team
- Thirty-five Men on Way To Des Moines for Scrap With Valley Outfit
The first major movement of the current gridiron campaign was made this morning when 35 members of the Jayhawker moleskin battalion, armed only with a tricky offense known as the "Henry system" and a lot of determination, entrained for Des Moines where it will open the 1939 football season by playing the Drake Bulldogs tonight at 8:15 o'clock.
By Clavelle Holden, e'40 Kansan Sports Editor
Coach "Gwin" Henry sent his charges through a light drill yesterday afternoon as they made final preparations for the game. The practice was prefaced by the showing of motion pictures of the Drake-Tuba University game of 1837. At that time "Vic" Hurt, first drafted to Henry, was at Tuba University. The moral of the "show" may have been that Druke was beaten 41-7 in that game.
The game captain will not be appointed until tonight.
Ten Lettersmen to Start
In the game tonight Henry plans to start 10 lettermen and one sophomore. Big Jim Holloway, 215 pounds of tackle, will team with Monte Merkel at the main defensive posts in the line. Veterans Sillanck and Massare are slated to take the guard positions for the opening game. John Naramore, understudy to "Chuck" Warren last year, will take over the centering duties.
On the wings, Russell Chitwood and Steve Renko will get the starting assignments with six others on defense. In either of these veterans weaken.
Bill Bursen is still hobbling around with a twisted knee, but "Gwimn" plans to start him at the fullback post. The big 212-pound bill bolster the Jydwhorw defense considerably when he is in the game.
Miller and Rhule Stay Home
DAN PHULE
In the event Coach Henry decides not to start Bunsen, Frank "Huckley - Buck" Bukaty will take his place. Bukaty is a triple threat man of no little ability. When he is in the game he will probably do the kicking as the passing.
Ralph Miller, whose knee injury hasn't completely mended,
and Dan Ruhle,
who is nursing an
injured back, will

this position made the trip.
At the signal-calling post will he two-year letterman Milton Sullivant. "Sully," who weighs only 170 pounds, is one of the surest tackles on the Jayhawk team. In addition, he has the necessary speed and drive to make him a threat any time he carries the ball.
Ed "Wildhorse" Hall, 190-pound junior, will take on of the halfback positions. The "Wildhorse" is a husky boy who has the ability to start like a shot and hit the line like a cannon ball. On the defense he runs fast inside—bus-bucker-up." And, in a pinch, he can place kick as well.
