KANSAS WEDNESDAY, APRIL 1. 1936 Candidates Will Appear In Student Convocation Ten o'Clock Marks Official Opening of Political Campaign; Men's Student Council Officers To Be Choosen in Spring Election An All-Student Convocation this morning at 10 o'clock will mark the official opening of political campaigns for the election of officers for the Men's Student Council. The convocation is sponsored by the M.S.C. and the executive council of the W.S.G.A., for the discussion of the problems of student government. Lyman Field, president of the Men's Student Council, will preside over the meeting and introduce the speakers. Chancellor E. H. Lindley will give the first talk of the morning on the individual's responsibility in student government. Ruth Learned, president-elect of the W.S.G.A., will speak briefly on congressional Ways. this building concerning the Women's Self-Government Association. Lyman Field will make a report to the student body on the activities of the Men's Student Council of 1935-36. The two major political parties on the Hill will have opportunity in this convoction to make their first public announcement of candidates for the main offices of the M.S.C., which will bring into the open the political rumblings that have been working in the campaign against the numbering of students for the past few weeks. Besides presidential nominations, the party nominates for the offices of treasurer, secretary, and vice-president will be presented to the student body. New Plan The new plan of discussion of student government problems and presentation of candidates at a convection is an innovation in the student campaigns at the University. The purpose of the meeting, as started by the leaders of the M.S.C. and the W.S.C.A. is to discuss campus government, to permit candidate representation, to present their views to the student body, and to answer the questions, "Is student government worth while?" and "Are the political parties worthy of support?" Interest in the opening of what promises to be a hotly contested political battle is part of that while the Paccharias published the platform of their party several days ago, the P.S.GL is releasing its party program only this morning in pamphlet form. Student leaders have expressed the belief that this convoitation is a necessary function in student government that it will help students and faculty see and understand what self-government actually does and what it could do. That will make student office holders more responsible to the entire student body. In discussion the student government on the Hill, Lyman Field, president of M.S.C., said, "Are the cynics right in saying that student government at Kansas is not worth the candle?" Now is the time to find out for yourself to be a member of the future of student government hangs in the balance. Does it justify itself?

Frolic Features Freaks And Fun for Follower. Students in Five Races Will Show Unusual Endurance and Ability Visitors at the second annual intramural roralic thursday evening will see their best friends in some very unusual situations. The races, which are to be held on Friday, are a real team training, are freak events closely related to the antics of a boy scout camp. The Block race, the first event of the evening's athletic program, takes the men back to their baby days and gives them a chance to face the front of each team are four circles, painted on the floor six feet apart. The first man up takes a block, places it in the first circle, returns to the base line, and places it in the third circle, and so on. The next man up on his team goes out and brings in the wooden blocks, one at a time. The team getting all of its blocks to the home base first wins the event. Kangeroe Race The Kangaroo race, which is the second contest of the meet, is a highly involved affair in which eight men make up a team. As the intranural office explains it, "Two men in each group face each other up and clamps his legs around B's legs in back. A then falls backward between B's legs (Can you follow it?) clear under so that he can grasp the back of B' ankles with both hands. B then lifts upon his hands and group I is ready to跑. (Wowful what a college educa- done for one.) The race is run by B walkaln all four carrying a 'finish line.' If any of the contestants are alive after the Kangaroo race a Heel-hold event will be run. In this context there are three scenarios, each one to each team. The first man in each group handles on all fours, each man in turn bends down and grabs the ankles of the man in front of him. The group must go to the jumping point and return to the start line. Angleworm Event While the men are on the floor another race will be run called the Angle-worm event. Here the entire team site sits at the back of the man in front of him. Each member of the team reaches back and grasses the ankles of the man behind The team is to move as best it can and then back up to the starting place. The final event is the Wheelbarrow race in which the eight-man team is divided into four groups. One man in each group must walk on his hands while the other has his ankles and pushes him like a wheelbarrow. The race will be run in relay fashion. A cup will be awarded to the group that wins the most points in the races. Races will be started by Bernard Frazier, referenced by Dick Skiar and judged by Gordon Gray, Dean Nesmith and Ernest Vanek.

Hauptman's Life Saved By 48-Hour Reprieve Grand Jury Requests Warden Kimberling To Postpone the Execution for 48 Hours; New Angles in the Wendel Case Are Being Investigated Trenton, N.J., March 31 — (UP) – Bruno Richard Hauptmann, the "man with the charmed life," was haunted back from death in the electric chair for the second time when Warden Mark O. Kimberley of the Trenton state prison postponed his execution for 48 hours. Granted 48 Hour Stay (Copyright 1936 by UNITED PRESS) Bruno Richard Hauptmann, condemned to die for the slaying of the Lindbergh baby, who was granted a 48-hour stay of execution by Mark Kimberling, warden of the New Jersey state penitentiary. Kimberling's action was taken at the request of a Mercer county grand jury which is investigating the case of Paul H. Wendel, disbarred Trenton attorney who confessed that he murdered the Lindbergh baby and then repudiated his confession. Wendel still is held in the Mercer county jail on charges of murder. Future War Veterans Perfect Organization Enlistment Campaign Gets Under Way With Appointment of Committees A plan of action which will insure a huge bonus for every member was adopted last night by Deathwatch Post No. 1 of the Veterans of Future Wars at its meeting in the Memorial Union lounge. The air was thick with suggestions, which crystalized into a program of publicity and propaganda. Committees were appointed to guard the organization's interests in various lines. A recruiting and membership committee was formed to start operations immediately, seeking to enlist every male who can carry a musket. A lobbying committee under Hugh Hadley and Dave Kelo will help ensure that the eye to increase the appropriation for ammunition with which to fight the next war. At its last meeting the M.S.C. granted two cents to purchase munitions and two cents to purchase wollies for a sum of ten cents. Committee Awaits Gumshoes A committee on espionage awaits only the arrival of its gusbows before it takes up its duties of forging out subversive influences. Roland Walborn, a probable non-participant in Future Wars, proposed that this committee search out all those who are deriving bounces or other gratuities for past service and demand an explanation of the best methods to follow. Phil Renick, who presided over the meeting in the absence of an elected commander, offered the salute, which was adopted. It consists of throwing the hand forward. Hitlerian fashion, then drawing it smartly in to the side. A suggestion that citations for conspicuous gallainry in action be awarded to deserving future heroes was roundly included and incorporated into the charter. Committees Appointed Two delegates will meet with the Peace Mobilization committee next Monday to consider reconciling the two organizations. At its next meeting a permanent organization will be set up. Membership fees, which are collected by the organization of the soldier, are 25 cents, which is needed for local promotional work. The committees selected and subject to future revision: Program committee: Allen Merriam, Brassman, Grant Cowherd, Jack Miller, Haryr Colden, Harry Colden, Harry Colden, Membership committee; Bob Corey, chairman, Reginald Heap, Virgil Mitchell, John Coleman, Marion Mundis, and Kenneth PowellwriteArthur C. Smith, David Smith, Smith chair, Robert Turner, Bill Comer, Dale O'Brien, and Dan Marshall. Lobbying committee: Hugh Hadlock, Piette McLean, Piette McLean, Guy Ouer, Jr., and Bill Seitz Kimberling came out of his office, after a telephone conversation, holding in his hand a piece of paper. He was caught. A man tried to suppress the suspense of this incredible day. The corridor was shaked with more than 50 persons who had been searched twice and identified so they were taken to the death chamber and, as Haptupta said, he jumped. "I have received a telephone call from Allyne Freeman, foreman of the Merzer county grand jury," he said. "The grand jury had requested him to call me and ask me to postpone the Hauptmann execution for 48 hours. He said they were still investigating the Wendel case and wanted to look into some of the crimes." "We have decided we have decided to delay Hauptmann's execution for 48 hours." C. Lloyd Fisher hurried through a arreed door into the death house to take news to Hauptmann. Ten minutes der he came out and reported that hauptmann was delightful and very awow. Attorney General David T. Wiltz threatened today to bring some kind of charges against Ellis Parker because of the Wendel episode. Wendel's Story The Wendel story was that on Feb. 14, three men picked him up in New York City and took him to a house near Flody Bennett airport. They held a pistol to his head and told him to confess to the Lindbergh crime. Wendel was taken into custody by Parker and placed in the New Lisbon home for feeble minded. Wendel says he had been Parker and exhibited burses on his log. Parker said Wendel was treated like a guest at the home for feeble minded. Saturday night Parker brought Wendel to the Mercer county authorities and delivered him to Chief of Detectives James Kirkham. Planned To Hold Wendel Yesterday the Wendel confession and its repudiation were placed before the Court of Pardons which was considering Hauptmann's plea for clemency. The court ruled there was nothing in the Wendel angle to justify delaying the execution. Yet today the grand jury began considering the Wendel case. Wilentz charged today that Parker Kled planned to hold Wendel unconditionally but had not foregrounded Hauptmann's scheduled execution, and then bring him to the state prison and tell the warden the electroception would have to be delayed. Italy Drafts Law Requiring Air Training byright 1936, by United Press Iomie, March 31-(UP)—The government today drafted a law providing compulsory aviation time for all students physically and mentally qualified.
