Oread-Kayhawks Effect Coalition for April Election
Leaders of Both Parties Issue Statements Explaining Latest Action
'CALL FOR NEW DEAL
The projected coalition of the Kayawk and Oread parties has been effected. In statements made public to the media, both groups said they would join the Kayawk party, and Ed Sharp, president of the Oread party announced that the coalition has been effected, and that the two parties would unite their accords to form a coalition of the Men's Student Council.
"In view of the fact that it is generally conceded that the Kayhawk club and the Oread party should unite in their efforts to secure a representative student government, and that through the combined efforts of the two organizations, we can attain the ideals and principles of every thinking student on the Hill, the non-fraternity Kayhawk club's open meeting Monday night, chose to enter the spring election with the Oread party.
White said:
'Call for New Deal'
"The principles set forth by the club at that meeting, and supported by Oread, call for a new deal for the entire student body. In consequence with depression times, we intend to promote an active student government, and one that will at least attempt to solve the problems of K.U. students."
Wants Representative Group
Sharpe's statement was as follows: "If the University of Kansas is to gain its proper place with respect to men's student government, we feel that the student council must be chosen from the entire Hill, that the council must have a deep understanding of students' needs and opportunities occasionally at least this council must have the courage to express the student body it represents.
"Believing that a plan of mutual benefit for the school and for the student body can only be worked out by a representative group of non-fraternity and fraternity who respect each other and each other's problems. Realizing that the Keyhawk club and the Oread party have these ideals in mind, they want to announce an announcement a coalition between the two groups for the spring election.
"Le me add—the Oread party hopes for the coalition brought about last night with the non-fraternity men. If we felt confident that it would result let me point out that a mutual respect among the leaders of both groups has grown upon the base of something new in Hill politics—fair dealing."
