January Is Introduced
The method of first, second and third choice balloting will be used in counting the votes. Velma Wilson, chairman of the election committee, explains the election count method as follows: "In counting the votes, the name of the woman with the fewest is thrown out, and the votes are re-distributed among the remaining candidates. This process ensures that the candidates has enough votes to win. Thus, the winner will be the choice of the largest number, although not the first choice of all voters."
Jeanette January, c39, who replaced Catherine Holmes, c38, an point system manager, was introduced to the Council.
The Council voted to approve the plan for allocation of $1,200 of the reserve fund of the student activity budget. The proposed intramural program

Like two birds released from a cage, Jody Stewart and Jane Coats resumed their fall dating yesterday after an extended rest cure of one month. As yesterday was their first outing, they celebrated with breakfast dates at the Blue Mill, and went strongly all day long. Was it worth it?

And then the Corbin hall, preacher's daughter who goes to church each Sunday so she can write home with a clear conscience and tell the pater that she went to church. What she didn't tell the pater was that she wears cotton in her ears all through the sermon, and finds it a swell spot to sleep off those week end feelings. . .

Jury Liberates John Montagua
A verdict acquiring him of a charge of robbery committed in 1908 was brought in after 12 men had deliberated elastically four hours.
Elizabeththown, N.Y., Oct. 26.—(UP) A juret tonight to Montague from the Essex county court house a free man-free to reap fame and gold by his ability as a super-golfer.
There was a mighty chie in the little courtroom, and Judge H. E Owen, gray-haired and dignified ordered the scribes to leave.
"Gentlemen of the jury," he said, "I thank you, I thank you on behalf of LaVerne Moore (the defendant's wife) and he will thank you for himself."
The crowd jailed the asleep trying to shake hands with Montague while he stood at the defense table and smiled and waved.
James Noonan, defense counsel rose to his feet;
Montague stood up and started to speak:
Crowd Jammed Aisles
Judge Owen turned to the jury. "I'm sorry to say, gentlemen," he said to them, "that your verdict is not in accord with what I think it should have been. But that is your business and it is up to you."
"Gentlemen of the jury . . .
"Wait a minute," cut in Judge Owen. "This is no show."
"I'm sorry, your honor," Montague said, and sat down.
The defense moved that Montague be formally released from the bail bond of $25,000 under which he has been held.
WEATHER
Owen Does Not Agree
"Granted," Judge Owen said. Then Montage, who today took the witness stand and denied that he had participated in the robbery of a roadhouse, put on a brown shirt and brown hat and walked out.
Kansas: Fair, slightly warmer Wednesday; Thursday generally fair, cooler in northwest.
Politicians Clearing Field For Election
Campaign for Selection Of Freshman Officers Promises Hottest Fight In Several Years
By Harry Hill, c'40
Although its importance is greatly lessened by recent Men's Student Council inclusions which gave P.S.L.G. a decided majority, the campaign for election of freshman class officers nevertheless promised one of the best.
It must be party honor which fans the flame of rivalry, for little else is at stake. The election of freshman president carries with it a council vote for the victorious party, but in view of the ineligibility epidemic which cost Pachacamac a two-vote majority, this seat will have but one vote left. If there are attempts to carry out through the council, the M.S.C. vote at present stands: P.S.G.L. 17, Pachacamac 9, and Independent 1.
Name Riggs and Brockett
The campaign will be the shortest for some time. Both parties announced their candidates with less than two weeks remaining until the election, Thursday, Nov. 4. The Pachacamac slate, with Rae Griggs, c41, as presidential nominee, was announced Sunday, P.S.L. presented its candidate, Rae Griggs, yesterday, at the same time a four-point platform.
Both parties displayed some lethality in getting started, but the campaign is now in full swing. Action will be centered around the non-fraternity vote, with emphasis on the Kentucky-Tennessee-Ohio Street rooming house district. Hill fraternal organizations port one of the groups, which eliminates any campaign for the Greek vote.
Urges Voluntary Action
The P.S.GL platform urges voluntary action in renewing fresh traditions, the sale of freshman caps at cost by freshmen, and support of adviser Werner's student advisory program. A point which was also in effect for many years is that a pledge to renew efforts to establish a freshman honor commission. The Pachacamea program will be announced Friday, according to a statement by Harold Wilson, cameraman for the Pachacamea freshman council.
Freshman men elect only the president of the class, treasurer and two dance managers. The offices of vicepresident and secretary are filled by women, and chosen through the WSGA.

Two Milers Will Meet Drake
The Jayhawk two-mile team goes to Des Moines Friday to meet Drake, which boasts one of the most elite running schools. This will be the third meet of the season for the experienced Kansan; who are improving with every meet. They will race between them and Ginnell football game Friday.

Ernie Klanie, who finished first at Norman Saturday, heads the Kansas team, and will be pushed hard to finish very high at De Moines. The rest of the Kansas team is made up of Haslam, Toberin, Huper and more. In practice earlier this week but should be in good shape by Friday.

Hoover Denies Wanting Office
Boston, Oct. 26. (UP) - Herber Hoover tonight did he did not want public office and called upon the Republican party to arm itself with "new faces and new blood" to fight New Deal's "creative collection"
He responded to reports that h. desired once more to be a candidate in 1940 with the assertion:
"Before it go further (not that it is of any importance) but just to keep the air clean); let me repeat one that I do not want any public officer."
As the former President spoke tonight, Alfred M. Landon, Republican standard bearer in the last presidential campaign, was in conference at Topeka, Kan., with John D. M. Hamilton, Republican national chairman. Landon, considered Hoover's rival for party leadership, has opposed the Hoover proposal for a mid-term Republican convention.
C.I.O. Makes Offer To Labor Federation

F. of L will make a counter-proposal.
Reporter Likes Play Despite Seat
'Beggar on Horseback'
Employs Impressionism
To Portray Individual
Naturism
By Morris Thompson, e38
'Late the designer of Fraser theatre,
took to roar, too. F, he probably felt like the painter that varnished over his own footprints, . . . it's too bad, but nothing can be done about it. When your reporter watched "Begnar on Horseback" from that locality he still liked
"Beggar on Horseback" is a comedy. Its chief claim to distinction is the employment of the relatively new technique of *impressionism*, which painters and poets call "impressionism," and laymen call "fantastic but effective." Impressionism is characterized by subtle undercurrents of the individuals and groups represented in the play.
Handle Play Well
The Kansas Players handled "Beggar on Horseback" and impressionism well. Present, of course, was the slunginess of lubrication that kept his ensemble disarraying, but with disappears as soon as both the players and the audience warm to the task. "Beggar on Horseback" deals with the life of a young and talented musician, who like all young and talented musicians, is working on a new piece, in writing arrangements for swing bands to keep the landlady from bowling, or the wolf from collecting the rent. As usual, he is in love with a poor girl and a rich family wants him to marry their daughter, who likes to be but doesn't like music with a soul.
The Hero Awakens
But enough of the plot.
It's the presentation that counts. Impressionism comes in when our hero dreams he has married financial freedom and discovers he has lost artistic freedom. Impressionism, it seems, functions best under the inhibition-free spell of Morphens, for the dream reveals everyone and every group in its true colors, three tones deeper for effect. Our hero awakens and everyone lives happily ever after.
Some best lines illustrating symbolic group habits and individual naturisms: "The jury isn't supposed to know anything until they are instructed" . . . "The Illustrated never uses anything but pictures and a few simple lines. Some of our subscribers can read." . . . "This is a new son-in-law I bought for my daughter."
Bouquets to Nuckles
Liberties are taken with everything formal, in the play, but in spite of the Greeks, even we in ballet were still with them when it ended.
Bouquets: To Rolla Nuckle, the masculine lead, who really does play the piano. To all the rest of the cast, production staff, and stage staff (they are so very many and they were good).
Brickbats: To those individuals, both within and without the production who plead "matemeism" – that is, not with a weak argument. To Robert Calderwood for having too much hands when he really should know better. Personal: Much more could be said, but you'll see it when you go. Got.
