Entered as second-class matter September 19, 2010 at the office at Lawrence, Kansas If the youthful voter has not already decided to cast his ballot in support of the party of his father's and grandfather's choice before him, he finds in the present campaign a veritable jungle of information and misinformation. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1932 "FOR WHOM SHALL I VOTE?" The issues this year are larger than in 1928, but they are too abstract and complex for the average voter to form clear-cut opinions concerning them. And it is fairly evident that these issues of unemployment, gold standard, war debts, balanced budget, "pork barrel," credit inflation, farm strikes, and bonus payment, are even beyond the full comprehension of the presidential candidates and their advisers. The college student with some knowledge of economics, sociology, history, and political science should have a distinct advantage over the majority of voters in determining his voting preference. He should be able to hunt out the essential facts from the maze of political speeches, newspaper stories, magazine articles, and whisperings that would form a basis for an unbiased, thoughtful opinion. If the voter prefers not to think out the problem carefully, he will be able with far less effort to find arguments for continuing to believe as he already does. But with many years of voting privilege before him, the young voter should take the time at least once to think the matter of party affiliation through to a logical conclusion. The result of such thought might be radically different from what he supposed he believed. STORK ENTERS POLITICS Even the stork has been affected by the white-hot political campaign that has been raging for the past few months, but, at least, he believes in keeping the opposing forces equally balanced. The names Herbert, Clark, and Hoover and Franklin, Roosevelt, and Delano have been attached, respectively, to two sets of triplets born in neighborly eastern towns. "Attached" is the correct word to apply in the cases of these christenings, for in its real sense the word means "permanently fixed." Freak names would be all right if they could be outgrown along with other childish ills. But, alas, they endure forever! Why talk about the depression! It is not nothing! Everyone is getting provoked at the thousands of times this terrible depression is brought into conversation. If people will stop talking about it, soon no one will think about it. And if people will stop thinking about it, no one will know it's here. They've gone and have left destruction in their path. Lost articles will never be found, there were too many in the room ever to find out just what did happen to those things. THE AFTERMATH OF HOMECOMING The old grids came back and with them they brought their friends. For two nights, floors were used as improvised beds and buffet suppers were the steady diet. Telephones rang and the calls were for strange people. Incidentally, the desired parties were seldom found. Freshmen stood around with mouths wide open. Never had they seen such commotion. Their much-looked-forward-to-event had arrived and they were amazed. Mount Oread's inhabitants retired early Sunday night. It had been a great week-end. FRESHMEN AND CAPS Maybe the freshman who asked, "Why wear a cap?" was right. The other day, while walking from the Memorial Union to the Administration building between classics, an interested upperclassman saw, by actual count, only eight freshmen caps. And last Friday those who are privileged to carry paddles ran freshmen through that dressed line because they overstepped the chalk mark a few inches before lifting their caps. While these few conscientious reshmees were undergoing their ideal, many more of the class of 36 were walking by, laughing to themselves because they had been smart" and had left their caps at one. Perhaps the person who made the suggestion in a campus opinion recently, to the effect that tagging the upperclassmen would make it possible to distinguish the freshmen, didn't have such a bad idea after all. AUTUMN A chill wind rushes through the dry leaves still hanging on the trees. . . Their follows on the ground are swept into whirlpools by sudden gusts of the breeze. . . Sullen gray clouds scurry through the sky. . . Occasionally they send cold drops down on a landscape which is rapidly becoming drub and barren. . . Trees and shrubs which a short time ago were clothed with vari-colored foliage now bare their arms to the rude chin in the air. . . The wind which sweeps over the bills and crepe into the valley sighs in a new note. . . It whispers, "Old Man Winter will soon be here—prepare for 'im, Mother Nature." SUGGESTED VOTING Nash and Ford have issued rather definite instructions to their employees in regard to their voting. Of course it is impossible for them to really check up on the way their employees vote but it seems like a rather questionable practice. Has the intelligence of the work- ingman of the United States dropped to such a level that they must be instructed in politics? Wouldn't it be better to try to show them the merits of all of the candidates and then let them make their own de- cisions regarding the suitable one? Or should America resort to coercion? Campus Opinion --is nothing wrong with it as our misrepresented sports writer does and it will doubletick correct its past errors in the student body and alumni should not ask of it. Editor Daily Kansan; After reading yesterday's article by the Kansas's sports writer, I am greatly relieved to find that there is nothing wrong with the Joyhawk football team. No, fellow students, there isn't any difference in the ball team and doubleless there has been no squabble in the law school. The Alumni is perfectly satisfied with the present administration and Kansas has a beautiful Memorial Union. Almonds. We don't know what the article. Joe Hawkers have been a good football team all season—they are still a good team." This statement discredits the intelligence of any student who attends the college. "No, we see Kansas defeated last Saturday primarily because Nebraska intercepted pass after pass thrown by Kansas; A team that repeatedly used had judgment in selecting plays, a team that committed foul balls, an offense for ball carries? Perhaps we are all wrong and the sports editor is right. Well, perhaps At the top of this article is written, "Daily Kaman Sports Writers Stoutly Defends Squad Against Complaints of the team's sports writer does think that an article like this defends the team but he is mistaken, it only makes the team mistake of the team and not mistakes of the team than the team itself.

May I suggest that the sports writer change his amber colored glasses for a pair of clear visioned ones when he writes us further articles and that he remember the team doesn't need to hide behind his skirts. C.Y. Our Contemporaries HAVE YOU REGISTERED? Did you vote at the general election in 1930? If you did not, have you registered? If you did not and have not registered, you will have to register within the next two weeks to be eligible to vote in November. If you have, you must register again. Have you changed your name? Have you changed your address since you registered and voted last time? Will you become 21 years of age between now and Nov. 8? Or have you become 21 since the last election? Now, how many must be childless? Have you changed your name? If you have, you can't vote without re-registering. If so, you must register to be eligible to vote. If you are not sure whether you are correctly, register, ask City Clerk Grant Action or one of his assistants to look it up. They will be glad to do so, and it will make your status as a voter certain. Then, having been properly registered, go to the polls November 8th and vote. So Ellery Sedgewick, editor of the "Atlantic Monthly" expressed himself with confidence in the field of literature. But this statement does not stop here. It might just as well have been made concerning the rising generation's future in any field of en- It's really a lot of fun. And it's a privilege your ancestors may have die for. Arkansas City Daily Traveler, "Editors are always eager for new viewpoints and the outlook held by the rising generation." It is as though the entire thinking public had expressed its feelings towards the possibilities of youth. For most of us, the elderly of tomorrow, it is only natural THE DAY OF YOUTH HELEN HEASTON, President. that the present elders are pleased when members of the younger generation show signs of promise. Certainly these "elders are always eager for new viewpoints and the outlook held by the older generation to see who shall take their places. And all like human beings they are happy to give up their responsibilities as soon as the "viewpoints and the outlook" of the youths show that they are able to succeed. Offices it has been said that this is the day of youth, People with this idea point out numerous men who are taking positions formerly held by old men. They use that as an incentive to keep them young. But they forget that the old men who are retiring were themselves youths when they went into the jobs. And the ones whose places they took were also youths when they were first enlisted so should anyone take a day of youth any more than any other time? HALLOWE'EN CANDIES Priced Right In the correct sense every day is the day of youth. Some youths, however, have their day before others do, since it is the youths themselves who determine when their day shall come. They are the ones who are responsible for maintaining an environment. And they of their own accord determine society's demand for them. The youths of today can live honey that their day will soon come. Instead they must through their own thought and achievement prove that their duty has come and they are fully taken to take charge -Daily Tar Heel Sez the Editors The students and student hospital authorities at K. U. have been in an altercation over the rule that called for chaperons when students called on hospital patients of the opposite sex. But the trouble has all been adjusted, Mrs. Will Beck is glad to note in the Holton Recorder. It seems the students were well aware of the issue, she was feared. However, Dr. Canutson explained that the restrictions on "petting" were merely in the interest of health. So the students were satisfied. Heavens, do students pet? In a recent article in a Kansas City newspaper, Mr. Koehler told M. U. the Dean of women and the sorority and fraternity house mothers said so. Maybe it's just a quaint old K. U. custom or maybe they just do it in hospitals—Kansas City Star. --of Johnston's and Whitman's Candies Good enough to send to all your "Best Girls" WONDERFUL ASSORTMENT Rumor has it that the editor of the Campus is growing gray because all of his staff have turned "Columists."

Schowe, associate professor of geology, proclaimed to his students of geology that because of the dreary aspect of the day and the many downwest spins lingering since Saturday's game, he brighten His daily lecture with slides. Bees Kill Blind Horse The slides illustrated the work of streams as photographed by Professor Schoewen in various parts of the United States. Scenes of the Grand Canyon, Peak's 'Poke' and surrounding areas, the Hudson river, Niagara flows, and parts of Illinois, Washington, Pennsylvania, and Kansas were shown. Greenburg, Pa. — (UP) — A blind horse overturned a bottle of bees while grazing, causing its own death and serious illness of its owner. George Roett. On Other Hills Dr. English Bagley, professor of psychology at the University of North Carolina, advised students who desire to pass their work to spend one fourth of their studying time in reading the assignment, and three-fourths in reciting what they have read. "For every hour of class recitation, the student should spend two hours of preparation," he declared. Depression took its toll at the University of North Carolina this year when only 216 freshmen were able to join fraternities, as compared with over 309 pledged last year.
