Freshman Voters Elect Class Officers
Brockett, P.S.G.L. Nominee, Gains Presidency by Four Votes; Women Choose Kimble and Grizzell; Parties Split Four Offices as Harney, Winn, and Renko Also Win
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1937
Bob Brockett, c'41, P.S.G.L. candidate, defeated Pachaacmac's Rae Riggs, c'41, 172 to 168 for president of the freshman class yesterday in one of the closest election races in recent years.
Pachacamac Places Two
The women elected Betty Kimble, c'41, of Mulvane, vice-president, and Lenora Grizzell, ed'41, of Bushon, secretary. In the preferential voting, Miss Kimble received 70 votes, Miss Grizzell 75. Both have voting positions on the W.S.G.A. Council.
Pachacamac placed Harold Haney, c'41, as treasurer and elected Larry Winn, c'41, to one of the dance managerships to gain an even split of class offices. Steve Renko, c'41, was the successful P.S.G.L. candidate for dance manager.
Hanley led all candidates in plurality, winning 183 to 156 over Ernest Klema, c41, P.S.G.L. nominee for treasurer.

Split Party Tickets
By the election of Brockett, P.S. GL, retains its 17-9 majority over Pachiaeum in the Men's Student Council. Brockett, who replaces Zeke Cole, c; 40, takes office immediately. His term of office will carry over until the freshman election next fall.
P. S.G.L.'s victory in the presidential campaign marked the first time in several years that Pachacamac was to place the freshman president.
P. S.G.L. Victory Unexpected
In the dance manager counting, 44 ballots were voided because of improper markings. Some of these however, were not voided in counting the votes for president and treasurer.
Indication that many voters failed to vote straight party tickets is seen in the fact that Brockett led his Pacachamac rival in the School of Engineering voting, which, in the race for treasurer, Harold Haney, Rising Sun candidate, won a majority of the engineering votes.
Fail To Instruct Voters
P.S.G.L. Victory Unexpected
Renko and Winn were decisive victors in the dance manager contest, but there was no representation quota of 92 first choices before it was necessary to count any second-choice ballots. The quota number is determined by the number of void ballots have been discarded.
Comment by party leaders indicated that Brockett's election to the presidency came as a surprise to veteran Campus politicians.
Moe Etterson, b38, Pachacamac freshman admir, declare, "Split tickets cost Rings the election. Also, they can't fraternity fraternity didn't vote."
Lawrence Birney, e39, chairman of P.S.G.L., said, "I didn't expect Brockett to win. We had the disarray and the anxiety. Our squad cars won it for us."
Newton Hoverstock, c38, chairman of the M.S.C. committee for the election, stated, "I'm surprised at the number of voided ballots in the proportional representation voting for dance managers. Evidently, neither party told its vetrs how to mark the ballots for P.R."
John Ise Speaks To Quill Club Members
Lest night at a meeting of Quill Club, John Ise, professor of economics and author of "Sod and Stubble" spoke to the members.
The club this year hopes to maintain informality in the meetings and participation of all members by having some member read an original composition at each meeting. Bob Pearson read his winning manuscript which he had entered in Scriner's "Life in the United States" contest.
Plans are also being made to publish the club's magazine, "The Oread," publication of which was suspended in 1926.
No Varsity Tomorrow:
Bands To Play in Lincol
The varsity dance scheduled for Saturday has been postponed, according to Jack Townsend, Union Manager. As far as could be ascertained last night, the postponement was due to the increasingly large number of students who will make the trip to Nebraska.
Both Blackburr and Kuhn will lead their bands at a varsity in Saturday night, however. The dance will be held at the Coliseum.

Chinese Fear Weakened Morale
Shanghai, Nov. 5—(UP)—Increasing fear in Stanko today indicated that the general will of the Chinese people for bitter-end resistance against the Japanese may be wavering.
It was learned, for example, that Generalissimou Chiang Kai-Chek has placed his own trusted leaders in positions of power in all doubtful provinces. They were instructed to take over complete control on the slightest sign of "defeatism" by provincial leaders.
Strong efforts are being made to prepare the Chinese people for the impending withdrawals around Shanghai.
Japanese forces around Shanghai appeared to be moving the center of their attack on the Chinese positions west and south of the international settlement and the French concession to the westward to avoid the danger of stray shells falling inside the foreign defense line.
Rumors were revived that the central government is prepared to abandon Ranking, if necessary, and replace it with Shaap capital of Hainan province.
Kansas: Fair Friday and Saturday; colder in east and south portions Friday; rising temperature Saturday.

The mid-semester advising period for freshmen and sophomores in the college will begin on Wednesday, Nov. 16. Students must attend the class on Nov. 23. All students in these classes are expected to see their advisers.

The production of this Maxwell Anderson play will use about thirty persons in the cast and stage crews. The show opens on the nights of Dec. 6, 7 and 9.
Instead of the two sections which were used on the revolving stage in the Kansas Players' production, "Beggar on Horseback," the new play will have three sections of more permanent construction.
The cast for "Elizabeth the Queen," first production of the Dramatic Club, has been chosen and will be formally announced as soon as it has been approved by the eligibility committee. This will probably be next week, according to Rolla Nuckels, instructor in the department of speech and dramatic art, who directed the play for Wednesday night.
"Theater-goers should be informed," said Nuckles, "of the distinction between the Kansas Players and the Dramatic Club. The former is made up of students and faculty members, while the latter is composed entirely of students. Many do not attend such organizations of the two organizations gives two performances during the dramatic season.

when Al Linsey, now coach of his alma mater, captured the team to the most recent of the Jayhawk victories.
Twice in the intervening years the Kansan team succeeded in tying the big red tie. One was the 20-20 thriller in 1920 when Nebraska scored 20 points in the first half and Kansas came back in the second to score 20 and up the game. In 1923 the game was played on a muddy field and neither team was able to score.
Even in 1930 with the only Big Six conference championship Kansas has won, the Cormishkers led, by a "pony" back by the name of Mathis, took the measure of the Jayhawkers 16 to 0.
Down a National Champ
This year the Nebraska team, coached by Major Biff Jones, has had a highly successful season so far. It opened the season by defeating Minnesota, last year's national champion.
Since then they have defeated Iowa State, Missouri, and Indiana, and were tied by Oklahoma on a muddy field. One characteristic of

their victories has been the fact that they are content to score and then coast, playing only hard enough to keep the opposing team from
Kansas, on the other hand, while surprising and pleasing its supporters with better success than ex-Columbus teammates. Three games have been won, with Washburn, Iowa State, and Oklahoma falling to victims of the Jayhawkers. Two games have been won by Wichita, and one to Michigan State.
Records Favor Nebraska
Not only do the records favor Nebraska highly, but the Huskers also have the edge in weight and experience. All leads to a highly favored Cornhusker team, although the Kansas team leads the conference upon a percentage basis. This is due to the Nebraska-Oklahoma tie, which can be attributed to the muddy condition of the field.
Both teams have fine defensive lines. Kansas chances seem to lie in the ability of the line to check the Husker running attack while the backfield must break up Nebraska passes.
If this can be done, a scoreless tie would result unless a suitable break would produce a Kansas score, or unless a long pass or run could bring about a score. A steady march down the field would be practically an impossibility against the huge Nebraska forward wall.
Another angle is the possibility of a muddy field if the rain continues. This could conceivably bog the attacks of both teams until a break would mean the ball game either way.
