First Meeting Of M.S.C. Replete With Pacifism
By James Polkinghorn and William Zupanee
No Ineligible Declared Under Faculty's Decision On Joint Ruling, President John Phillips Says
Seemingly stymed by style, the soils of the Men's Student Council meet last night amid the sumptuous splendor of new surroundings and conducted a sedate session at which they settled only sundry routine matters.
In striking contrast to the stormy meetings of last year, President John Phillips charted a carefully planned course *twixt* the rocks of petty partisan politics. Announcing that the Council had a balance of approximately $600 left from last year, Phillips requested that the finance committee, headed by Dave Meyer, treasury present a budget for this year's expenditures at the next meeting.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS,THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1986
The question of eligibility, so hotly contested last year, failed utterly to cause strife, and the right of any councilman to his seat was not questioned. Phillips assured the press after the meeting that, although he has not yet received a written report, Prof. G. Ware said, "the university committee on eligibility will raise no objections to any of the present Council members."
Demonstrating the corporate harmony that characterized the meeting, the Council then elected unanimously the members of the parking committee named by Phillips. This committee is responsible for the Park Tender, John Paul and Jack Teeter.
Council in Agreement
After due deliberation, the Council decided to set the date of the nightshift parade for the day before the Oklahoma State College's official detailed information, the council elected Cordell Meeks and Dave Conderman as their representatives on the Joint Committee on Student Affairs. Phillips will also be an ex-officio member of this

Apparently taking to heart the contention of the self-styled "peasanty" of the student body, the Council referred the petition protesting the Jawhaker sales practice to a committee composed of Earl Deakborn, Martin Witers, and Lawrence Smith who are to report at the next meeting.
Phillips announced that the bill providing for an annual intramural frolic had been returned by the Chancellor with suggestions for slight revision, and turned it over to Martin Witers and Earl Dearborn to be redrafted.
After deciding to postpone the binding of the new copies of the constitution for three weeks, the councilmen closed the quiet session.
The only member of the Council absent from the meeting was August McCullon, graduate representative, who failed to return to school. The secretary was instructed to publicize notice of the incident immediately so it could be filled.

The Chi Omega's will be interested, no doubt, to hear of the return engagement of Dorothy Kennedy, of that lodge, to Bill Kayle, of the Sick Alp学. Hate to break the news because this pin deal wasn't to be officially announced until Sunday, but after all there's nothing like a grapevine telegraph scoop.
For those that don't know, Kiley's pin adorned Kennedy for a while last year, but it was returned a short time later. This column wishes to take this opportunity to congratulate Kennedy.

The Young Republicans' hope knew no bounds last night when they saw the size of the turnout for their meeting. It was short-lived, though, when they found out that the unexpected mob were freshmen attending what they thought were conventionals. It seemed that the Chancellor is two weeks ahead of schedule.

Question of God No Longer Limited To Religion
DR.T.Z.KOO
"The problem is no longer the dissension between the schools of religion but in the fundamental question, "I there a God?" exclaimed T. D. Z
there a *GOD*?” exclaimed Dr. T. Z. Ko, Chinese student leader and member of the Nation пreaching Mission, before an audience of 3500 students yesterday at the second all-University convoction.
"If there were no God we would feel the impact in our lives in two distinctly different ways. First, we would write out of our lives the only greater element than man himself; and secondly, the human soul would be deprived of the companionship of something more than anything in the world today."
In his mother tongue, Doctor Koei ave one of the Chinese definitions life, the essence of which was that she was a woman who is also her material universe, and man.
The former. Doctor: Koe believes, has seen neglected too long. It is evident throughout the world that war looms in every horizon. "Should we write at the basis for the concepts of human living, the essential element to preserve liberty, gradual disamortigation be the result."
togglering man himself, Doctor Koe, pointed out that too much concern was directed toward the material side of life. Giving as an example the fact that people of mind think nothing of spending hours tuning their physical skins, but will not spent ten minutes tanning their spiritual hides.
Through study and reflection, the speaker had analyzed life into three planes. The first being the "jungle law", which served only to bring about conflict and mass murder. The second was the plane of justice under which old wounds were perpetuated and nothing was ever settled. The third and fourth planes were created. Upon the last plane the re-creation of life depended. He closed with the thought that from justice tempered with love, something new is created.

Where was he going to stay? "I can't stay here at the University Club." It wasn't a problem, he cuped. Herr Schafrath, new German professor on the Hill, saved the day at this by announcing, in rapid speech, that he would spend the night at the Springers.

What courses was he going to take?
"I want to arrive at my Ph. D. perhaps from Kannas. I have done "wurkru" in English and I am also here perhap public finance. I have attended school in Bordeaux and the Universities of Koenigsburg, Munich and Berlin."
Herr Weiss was an exchange scholar to France and has practiced law as an advocate or attorney. He finished his year in the army just previous to his departure for America. He will return to Germany and of law when he returns to Germany.
Asked about war in Europe between Germany, Russia and France his only comment was, "I hope—never," and then he bowed his head for a moment.

Young Republicans Hear Justice Smith In Initial Rally

Smith pointed out that only 41 million of the 70 million persons eligible to vote took advantage of that privilege in the last national election. He outlined a few points which could be moved by students in securing votes.
Mr. Ira O. Scott, candidate for State Superintendent of Schools, gave a short talk, in which he stressed the importance of the practical application of education in interpreting the culture of which we are a part.

Landon Fire On Trade Policies At Des Moines
Republican Leader Shifts
Campaign Into Northern
States With Minneapolis
Speech Tonight
Des Monies, Ia, Sept. 23. (UP)—Gov. Alf M. Landon mishaped the Republican presidential campaign pace in the agricultural belt today after opening fire on the New Deal reciprocal trade agreement policy as the climax of his appeal to the American farmers.
The Kansas governor spent the better part of the day getting acquainted with Iowa political leaders, farmers, and editors of state papers.
Shifting his campaign into Minnesota and Wisconsin the Republican presidential nominee will voice his vows on foreign trade in a speech tomorrow night in Minnesota and it was applauded with viewers on the administration program.
There came to his crowded hotel suite George N. Peck, ex-administration official and now an active foe of the New Deal and John T. Wallace, uncle of the secretary of agriculture, Henry A. Wallace.
With these men and with leaders of the state Farm Bureau and the dairy men's organization the Republican nominee discussed the reaction to his first farm speech demanding protection and security of the family type farm, heard that the November contest in Iowa would be a close one on the basis of present trends but that the Republican leaders were reporting the situation would have a considerable margin before the campaign ends.

He said, "It was a good speech Governor Landon made last night but that was only half of it. The second half will depend on what he says in his Minnesota speech. After that I will say whether I will support him."
'Non-Political' Label Off President's Actions
Hyde Park, N.Y., Sept. 23. (UP)—President Rovecevli, who labeled the "non-political" label from his activities, tonight in the seclusion of the "small White House" awaited the arrival of party strategists for a conference on re-election legislation and the extent of the part he is to play in the coming campaign.
The Chief Executive, it was understood, was anxious to hear the reports on campaign practice from the national committee experts tomorrow before committing himself to an extensive personal drive for votes.
Whether he will yield to proposals that he carry the battle from coast to coast depends on an analysis of the outlook in the several states.
Meanwhile observers saw in the visit to the President today of James Townsend, Duchess county chairman, and Judge Mack of Poughkeepsie, a keen interest on the part of the President in outcome of the election in New York.
They presented a word picture of the situation that supplemented a report from James A. Farley's right-hand man from the state Democratic committee. "We had to say 'in the bag' and that Rosevelt would have 350,000 to 500,000 majority."
In the late afternoon the President returned from an inspection of road building operations on his farm to press a golden key that started the operation of the Diablo power plant on the banks of the Skagit river in Washington.
