MY DAY
One pleasant thing about staying at home is the opportunity it gives you to see your friends and acquaintances. It was delightful to walk up the hill this morning, and then to find Mr. Jack Laffer and Prof. Joseph F. Wilkins there to greet me. Afterward I met all the young men in the glee club and I felt I had had a real union.
Lawrence, Kans. Oct. 22
We drove about the Campus this morning with Bud Bangs in his phaset. It was a most interesting drive, and I found that at this time of year the grounds are exceedingly beautiful. The buildings are intriguingly arranged. They are a triumph of art and most interesting to the student of different periods of architecture. I particularly liked the vines which cover most of them. Such lovely vines, interwintering, interlacing, intermingling, terminating, sidedstepping, paralleling, lateraling, intercepting, interweaving.
I also saw the recently completed library.

Gals Shiver as They Swing Sticks on Hockey Field
By Jay Simon and Stew Jones,

Hockey that rough and dune sport contest you read about in dune sport story magazines—sweet the wind-wind Campus campers as battling beauties representing seven women's teams fought furiously during the University's first Field Hockey Play Day.
And a colorful event it was. Yes, verily, for the scantily clad Amazons came from the rousing tilts with purple lips, red noses, slightly pink knees and limbs bearing liberal traces of black and white on the spectrum we uniforms of green, orange, red, blue, and motley.
While your special Kansan hockey, scribes hovered and shivered in their portable and very make-shift press box of blankets, the fair young stick-wielders raced up and down the striped battle field in garbs ranging from tunics a la Robin Hood to blouses and shorts that would enhance even a Ziegfeld chorus queenie.

The Party Gets Rough
phys. ed. department demonstrated the various volels and the players were quick to catch on. They employed them quite freely throughout afternoons.
As we begged and pleaded for actions more becoming to American young-womanhood, we were met with cold stares from cooler surroundings and the game continued with brutality rife.
The games were every bit as rough as the Kansas-Washburn grief of two weeks ago, and more than once your writers threatened to kill you in mills and take matters (as well as players) into our own hands.
In one of the feature frays of the afternoon the Wichita hockey club downed Friends U. 4 to 0. The spearhead of the winner's attack was Miss Nauts, coach of the Quaker girls' squad. She scored two of her team's four points and we are here to tell you that she is Nauts 'o bad. It was comforting to know, however, that column Jimmy Robertson was not among the three or four spectators present. The girls took it "On the Shin" apteny.

Eleanor Roosevelt, first lady of the land, visited Lawrence yesterday and Republicans and Democrats alike fell under the spell of the charming and gracious wife of the President of the United States. It was the first time in the history of the community that a wife of a president had visited and addressed a University audience. But it was the full striking woman charmed the people of Lawrence. It was as a vigorous personality a woman who

Mr. Roosevelt lent his support to the understater the King and Queen of England when they visited the country next year. In fact he intimated that it was not all sure whether the would come. But

Ames, Iowa, Oct'22—(Special to the Kansan)—Kansas' Jayhawkers managed to weather a cold 30 mile an hour wind which swept flurries of snow through Clyde Williams memorial stadium today, but were flattened by the Cyclone accompanying it. Fourteen thousand chilled homecoming fans watched the visiting Crimson and Blue outdownd and outrush but not outgeneral or outscore the veteran Iowa State troop, sparked by the indomitable mighty atom, Everett Kischer, and fleet, powerful Wilkner. By their smashing victory the Cyclos remained at the top of the Big Six football heap and served notice that they will be hard to die.
There will be a rally at the Santa Fe station this morning at 8:53 to welcome the football team returning from Ames.
--lodge. Flashing a swift combination running-airial attack, they struck early, piled up a huge 20 to 1 \*the time advantage, and then coasted home in a breeze after the intermission.
Draw First Blood
The Ames eleven drew first bloody just 4% minutes after the game got underway, upon receiving the bail for the first time on their own 20-yard stripe. Replogle had punted 54 yards from his own 26-yard line to Kischer who returned it 10 to the 30. A series of powerful running plays intermingled with an occasional pass and feature the thrusts of Wilber put the piskin in the Kansas 19-yard marker. The Jayhawk line successfully stiffened for three plays, and on then the Kischer and company unfolded their aerial wizardry.
Repuke lateralled a pass back to Kischer, who faked a sweep to his right, then fired a long shot into the tooth of the gale from his 35-yard line. The haeve found its mark in the arms of Chuck Heilman, star end who was waiting unmolested in the end zone. The "mighty atom" then kicked the first of his three perfect attempts from placement, and the Cyclones were out in front to stay. Kansas Fights Back
Charming Visitor
With the wind at their backs in the second period the Cyclones racked up their two counterbats. Vickerstaff, subbing for Kischer, carried the brunt of the attack in the second drive down the field. But when the attack threatened to be stymied by the Kansas line 20 yards away from destination, Coach Jim Yeeager sent his two aces, Waler and Kischer, back into the game. Wild Hank ran wilder than a forest fire, and in just two plays cracked the center of the Kansas line for the touchdown.
A temporary hole in the right side of the Ames hole was opened by the Kansas forwards, and a half dozen reverses by Replogle through that, spot advanced the ball back to the Iowa State 25-yard stripe. T he attack bogged completely down and the Staters took the ball on downs.
The third touchdown was featured by long gains with Kischer's passing and Wilder's success in the same game in the same identical manner at the first counter

Many Hear Payne Ratner
panquet and Parade See University Republicans Participating
Lawrence and the University campus Friday were the scenes of an enthusiastic political rally in honor of the vault robber who was a candidate for governor.
In a talk about a large crowd in the Douglas county courthouse, the Parsons senator declared "it is time for us to enact into law a suitable plan for furnishing free textbooks." The tale followed a banquet in his honor in the Memorial Union ballroom, sponsored by the K.U. Ratier for Governor club and the K.U. Young Republican club.
Tracing the development of education in this state, Senator Rattera said he favored a "general revision of the school laws."
"From the Kansas legislature's session of 1957 emerged three new laws which definitely accomplished three of the five objectives proposed by the legislative committee of the State Teachers association of those laws, it was hoped that introduce a bill calling for state and Kansas "schools."
More than one thousand persons witnessed a torchlight parade through the business district. Senator and Mrs. Rauter rode in a special "honor car" and many marched to the parade. A cowboy of Linn County Republicans rode in a large truck decorated to represent an elephant.

One's Duty to Community Is Important
First Lady Follows Lecture With Answers To Questions Proposed By Audience
"We should be more afraid of not doing our jobs as individuals. If we feel that one person does not count and leave our job to someone else, we have something to fear. But so long as we do our duties individually we have nothing to ear," she said.
Gowned in black velvet, wearing three orchids, and speaking extemporaneously yet with measured words, the first lady of the land told her audience in Hoch auditorium last night that the individual's duty to his community is of prime importance and that Americans are prone to talk a great deal about the things they oppose or are afraid of instead of the things they uphold.
Precedent in "Third Term"
Following her lecture, she answered many questions put to her by the audience. When someone wanted to know why her husband should not run for a third term, she displayed her wit by replying that, "There seems to be a little matter of precedent involved."
Previously she had been asked if the President would run for a third term. Her answer was, "You will have to ask my husband. There are some things it is better for husband to talk about. That is one of them."
In her lecture she spoke of the need for better housing conditions, not only in crowded city districts, but in rural regions as well. She added that there is a definite relationship between poor living standards and prevalence of crime among young people.
"Take Pride in Citizenship"
Speaking of educational systems and the fact that most employers would rather educate craftsmen in their own industrial schools she said, "It seems to me it would be far better if industry would cooperate with schools in making youth acceptable to big industries." After telling of the individual's duty to his own little community that of the state of our nation, Rosevelt capitol asserted that in many cases the state is a citizen of a still greater community—the world. Modern methods of communication and transportation are making it smaller, and we cannot depend on oceans to assure us of the peace we so much desire, she declared.
In concluding her lecture, she expressed a desire that each person should study the community in which he lives, take pride in his community citizenship, and realize responsibility of that citizenship.
Homecoming Parade Meeting Tomorrow
Sergeant William Kollerle, assistant instructor of military science and chairman of the Homecoming parade committee, urges all members of the committee to attend the meeting at the R.O.T.C headquarters, room 400. Fowler Shops toorrow at 4:30 p.m. The purpose of the meeting will be to outline definite plans for the parade in which several innovations are planned.
"The success of the parade depends upon all members of the committee," chairman Kollender said. "I am looking forward to the same excellent spirit and co-operation that I have previously enjoyed." The members of the parade committee have been invited to represent all student groups and organizations on the Hill.
