XXIX Political Factions Sling Verbal Mud in Open Meetings Both Parties Assemble i Union Building to Heckle Opposition Political gatherings last night, the sponsors of which could be identified only by the presiding officers, brought the forces contending for favor in the men's election this month together in an impromptu conservative conflict in the Kansas Union. SLOCUM IS DEFENDED No.148 Many members of both factions thronged into the Union lobby, milling about in small groups and carrying on a fight that was never resolved. Cipra, *c*14, president of the Oread party, came into the Pachacamac rally with a stick bulging in his hip pocket. He continued to attack blackjack, but which the leader later denied was such. The "stick" had been used previously for another purpose, he said, and it had no connection with the race. Carl Bowen, c32, president of Pachacamac," opened the forum by introducing Harold Denton, c34, platform chairman of the party. Denton said that besides giving equal representation, the chief aim of Pachacamac was the attainment of a student council of 100 students suited for suggestions for the planks of the party. Pachacamacas cheered and Oread-Ka-haywach jeered. They Cheer and Jeer Charles Hacker, c33, member of the KU. debate squand and by his statement not affiliated politically, then propounded his views on the coming campaign, panned the idea in the Great Khairy Bulletin a few days ago, delved into the workings of the present student government, used terms such as "rebel-rousers," and ended with, "Backed in the wall," the statement they say, "Beat the Machine." The masses cheered, and roared, and jeered. Opposition Speaks Up As the meeting was about to be concluded, Oread-Kayhawk leaders surged forward and took over by Malyn Burnett, c34, on announcing himself a Kayhawk and later admitting Oread membership, leaped into action. A few of those which served as the platform and asked why non-fraternity men were denied positions on the Kayhawk阵. He was followed by Dean Chaffee, b'32, political chairman of the Kayhawk club, who had been accused of fraternity from Kayhawk membership. Developments seemed to show that he was a Kansas State fraternity man, but not involved in any negotiations with the organization to which he was accused of belonging. Alphia Kappa Pat "Somebody pledge him!" from the crowd created that discussion. Scott Is Curious Then a long, rambling dissertation participated in by Ripley, Chuckey, Bowen, David Newcomer II, c32, and certain of those out in the crowd began on Marmadua and Grand Rapids selected candidates on a basis of representation. Following that, Richard Scott, e34 after whispered conferences with Bowen, asked: "What planks have been fulfilled by you and the council members of the council to have defended themselves and the majority not, and what is the Kayhawk standard of fraternity membership?" The crowd laughed and the counsel was adjourned. After the main bulk of the Pacha camas had departed, the Kayhawai meeting began, being moved from room 180 to room 320 to the meta lounge for lack of space. ricket McMamun © 35, president of the club, opened the meeting and discussed selection of candidates by the Kayhawk member, who stated that he was a Kayhawk member last year and later admitted that he was now a Pachaceum member challenged a statement by the selected member in Kayhawk meetings. Verbal Riot Resumed McManus called on Chaffee, political chairman, to answer the charge. From the chair he asked the members of McManus instead that all speakers address the chair and the meeting was far more orderly than the music he had played. Paccha-cameme members present were quite as active in taking over the floor as the Orodean group in unpacking the earlier meeting. One question concerned that of Kayhawk affiliation with Oreard. Concerning this, the McManus said that it was lack of sufficient finances to conduct a campaign alone and a deal with the fraternity, both the fraternity candidates, that in imputed this action on the part of his organization. Virgil Crow, e33, said.
