With Our Own Eyes
On Oct. 26, the Kansas City Star printed on its front page a double column photograph captioned in such a manner that it deserves no other epithet than the short and ugly one of "lie." It showed a huge banner bearing the names of the Communist candidates with pictures undermortal of Roosevelt and Garner. This was supposed to lend credence to that great story of the "real" campaign issue of 1936, Communist support of Roosevelt.
in the interests of decency in American public life let us add our voices. A member of the Kansan editorial staff happens to know where the picture was taken. He worked in New York this summer and many times passed the place where the picture was taken. The spot is on Avenue "C" between third and fourth streets in New York City. In this building is a Communist ward headquarters and directly underneath is a local Democratic headquarters. The Communists erected on the façade of the building a huge election banner, as the Star so ably demonstrates. The Democrats hung their pictures out also—directly under the Communist banner, which dwarfs them.
But the Communists are not supporting Roosevelt—not by this picture at least. Simply because two political parties happen to be in the same building is no sign that the one which occupies the lower floor is supported by the one renting the upper floor. By similar reasoning, if the Committee for Industrial Organization which occupies the same building in Pittsburgh as the Wierton Steel Company, had offices directly above those of its arch-rival, and proceeded to hang out pictures of Roosevelt above those of Weir's preference, Landon, the Democratic party would be supporting the Kansas Governor. Everyone knows this is preposterous. We could imagine the howls that
But we suppose that it's all right when it's done to smear the opposition. But then, didn't John Hamilton say that this would be a dirty campaign?
would arise from the Star, should anyone attempt this.

The "open season" on football coaches has started. Now that practically every team in the nation has played at least two games, the "coach-hunters" get into full firing. They want to know all of teams that have lost both of their games will receive the full blast of the hunters. Recently John Larderdon, noted sports columnist, has laid down a few rules that should be followed while hunting coaches. We are passing the best of them on to new players so that they be strictly in all your coach hunting.
1. The alumn should not hunt in groups of more than 500. Five hundred to one is considered sportive odds against a coach.
2. When you bag your specimen,
remove his contract cleanly with a sharp knife, be careful not to take away any of the skin.
3. It is permissible, though not customary, to allow the corroded coch to say a few last words, or to order his last breakfast, before you apply the knife. I realize the difficulty of holding off the dogs during this ritual, so I leave it to the discretion of the hunter.
4. The quarry's previous record need not be taken into consideration.
While we are on the subject of football it is necessary to call attention to this month's issue of "March of Time." The news real gives us an inking of what is really going on in the intercollegiate football world. It tells of the open subsidization of football and about stories of boys who wink eight-day clocks for a salary big enough to carry them through college. It
is a recognized fact practically every place in the United States, except, of course, Kansas University, that open subsidization of football players and other athletes is going to be limited. The coaches are not permitted this privilege. Of course there are the Big Six rules which are supposed to prevent this paying of athletes. Rules or no rules, it is rumored here and there that a great number of students have given either nice sums of money each month, or have good paying jobs, or have their tuition, room, board and other needs paid for each month by some kind friend who has previously been contacted by the team to receive information of rules. Certainly! But why not? Give a university a fine football team and it has one of the greatest modern day publicity agents. Naturally enough if we are all educational idealists then it is impossible to think of substituting athletes.

Question: If a band like Fletcher Henderson's or Herbie Kale's were to play at the Freshman Folel, would you pay $2 to attend?
Jack Harry, c: 398: "I think people would go to it if you could get a band like that, in spite of the fact that they would have to pay more."
Vernon, Voorhees, c37: "That would be almost as good as a fresh brim of Briggs. It would be lovely and worth two buck's." At this point he started to follow what he quintely terms n beaver ...
Leslie Reed, b197; "It would be fine for KU, to have a big time hand on the campus again. It would be well worth $2."
Why you couldn't dance to bands like those for $2-at least not around here.
Bruce Gleisner, c'37: "Absolutely.
Jim Harris, c'40. "You. You have to pay that any place for high class bands like those, and having one at your own party is worth twice as much."
Bill Idell, c398: "I think they need some good bands around here—they haven't got any for several years. Of course I'd pay $2."
Even the Sigma Sha'i seemed to prefer Herbie Kay, although they feared the Sig Alph's might get to well-headed about it. In a pinch he got his hands around and would his Haven or a dime...
