This was surpassed in 2014, when a candidate end of probably more than one million. Pennsylvania gave him a margin of 700,000. Other states rolled up pluralities as follows: Montana, 15,000 Ohio, 220,000; West Virginia, 60,000; Nevada, 14,000; Harding, when he won the race in 2012, have a senate and house Republican by wbarga, according to returns.
New York, Nov. 3—With definite returns lacking from only a few states, Harding today appeared to have been swept into the presidential office by the greatest popular majority in the history of American national politics.
The Harding electoral vote had reached 372 with indications that doubtful states might carry the figure to the 400 mark. Cox was credited with carrying these states: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas and Virginia. These states were still considered doubtful: Arizona, Montana, New Mexico. Harding took the rest.
As tabulation of returns was completed today the landslide was seen to be greater than it appeared last night when the great Republican sweep from the coast became manifest. The women vote swelled the totally Republican positions and made the Democratic defeat appear all the more overwhelming.
Republicans have strengthened their grip on the senate and will have a working majority of from 4 to 5 percent, with the majority of approximately 100 votes in the house. Republican governors were seated in every state except the solid south. Democrats failed to elect a governor south and lost Maryland and Missouri.
It was estimated that the total vote cast was more than 20 million and that Harding's majority was six percent of the vote all records for political landmarks.

The ruling, which provides that all freshmen must be passing in at least fifteen hours of classwork, and that all other students must be passing in the classwork they are carrying, does not go into effect in relation to dramatic casts. One month from the start, on the year "Follies" are thus executed.
The new ruling holds that all casts for plays given by Dramatic Club, and other organizations, such as the Y. W. C. A., the W. S. G. A., including the Follies) must conform to the licibility rules.
Unsatisfactory classwork at the present time will prevent students from participating in this year's "Follies," however, it was announced his morning by the committee in charge of the big spectacle. Before he names are announced, the grades of the people taking part will be given to anyone doing any unpleasant work at the present time will be drowned.
Stunt tryouts started this afternoon, with many contestants for the places on the Follies program. Arrangements for tryout must be made before Thursday noon with Lucie Cleveland, chairman, at phone 1188-754-2300, then the third work and work started in earnest by everyone next Monday.
A special treat for men for the
Follies chorus will be held Thursday
afternoon from 3:30 to 5:30 o'clock
in Room 306, Frasher Hall.

GATHER SNAPS EARLY
New Plan to Get Representative Collection From Organizations
Heavy manila envelopes to receive snapshots for the Jayhawker were distributed to all organized houses Tuesday by Harold Roberts, snapshot editor of the annual. Snapshots are to be collected once each month. This is a new method* being tried this year to get together representative snapshots for the Jayhawker. The team will hold a bulletin board or in some other conspicuous place in the house for this purpose.

Green Inn of Phi Delta, Pnu, 1965,
Fraternity, will celebrate the Revel of
All Halloween this evening. Dr. W.L.
Burick will act as Master Revell.
Initiation will also be held for the four
pledges.
This year's Jayhawker, according to the managers, is to be strong on snapshots. "A good live snapshot section is of more interest to students than any annual," said Ferd Gottlieb, editor. "It is the only portion which can be materially changed from year to year, and if the section is representative of all groups in school, as we expect to see, it will also adds a great deal to an annual."
Phi Delta Phi Revel
"Each fraternity, sorority and boarding club can get together better pictures suitable for the Jay-hawker than staff photographers could possibly assist us," said James Sullivan. In this way will also enable the Jay-hawker to have a much more representative snapshot section than formerly. I hope every organization will see that it is well represented by having members with koolkids turn copies of all their good pictures.
Frank Roark, c23, spent the week end at his home in Manhattan and attended the game.
Jayhawk photographers have been taking pictures all fall of student activities, but other students are doing so as well as of their organization's doxies. Boxes for snapshots will be placed in conspicuous places on the hill in a few days, but photographs they've earned in at the Jayhawk office.
NO CHANCE FOR MEN TO WED AT UNIVERSITY
a Year
Men Don't Want Cooks—Freshman Women Want $5000
K. U. men must go into the oil business,
The home economics department must be abolished.
Women must not worry about cookin-
g, but must develop companiaying,
and, supposedly, the cigaret and bil-
lard habits.
Men must show pep, wage-earning ability, the enclination to improve, and a sizable bank account.
This shows the results of questionnaires sent out recently by the Rev. E. A. Edwards, of the Episcopal church in Lawrence, asking four hundred women and one hundred men who answered "How Would You Choose a Mate."
The average income the man must have according to the answers of the survey, would be $100 per month, although some said that they would consider as low as $100 per month if the man showed an ambition and ability to improve. The average income was $125.
Reverend Edwards said that it was freshmen women as they thought that the man should draw about four or five dollars dollars a minute, and an exact in their ideas of the income of their prospective husbands.
One hundred questionmaires were also sent out to the University man, and it was found that the man's idea was about $300 for the salary and 20 years for the age of his prospective wife. The men placed a great deal upon the companionship of the women. They learned from their cooking abilities of their wives, seeming to think that their wives would live and learn.
Don't Leave Kansas To Cure Tuberculosis
According to health officials the theory of migration to the southwest for tuberculosis is a fallacy. There is no better air than Kansas air. Stay here and be cured. Dr. McGinnis said that it is the vision of vital statistics, accounts for the travel theory cure by saying: "Many years ago a man who had tuberculosis discontinued his work in a factory, got into a bed in the rear end of a comfortable wagon and rode all the way to the southwest. He got out and returned to that part of the country expecting to get well."
But western states have issued warnings against this practice. Dr. Lerrigo says: "The patient can be cured in his home state better than anywhere else, and the cure comes from freedom from work and worry, rest in the open air, good nourishing food, and good cheer."
Rooming- Houses Are Slow in Organizing
Not all of the houses have turned in the names of their presidents and until they do so, no individual notices can be sent them. There are also a few who have not sent in any notice of being organized. According to the rules of the Association and of the Rooming-house Committee, all houses must do so to maintain their should organize. It is an advantage for them to do so as their representative is the only means the a. Association has of reaching them.
FELLOW N PS OP N College Graduates to Be Sent to French Universities
William James Hutchels finishing a distinguished career at Oberlin college will succeed, William Goodell University's Ariel college, a school for mountaineers.
Beren, known as the "mountain school of the South," was made famous by President Front because mountaineers are taught from the very beginning to an A. B. of the college course, on very small expenses, as assessed in your budget, to return for educational advantages, $140 a year will meet the expenses of a college student at Berera and part of this can be met by labor.
Salesmanship Fraternity To Be Installed Hei
Within the next three or four weeks a new honorary fraternity, the membership of which will be based on salesmanship, will be installed on the Hill. The name of the organization will be Sigma Tau Sigma. Chapters are scheduled to be stalled in nearly fifty colleges and universities in the United States.
Plans for the new organization have been largely laid by business men, especially those employing college men during summer vacations. Many college men so employed have shown exceptional ability in the way of salesmanship, and it is the aim of these men to show this ability, much as is done in other vacations. In order to do this, it has been made necessary, in addition to fulfilling certain other qualifications, for the members to make at least $1,000 during their summer vacations in some form of salesmanship. At present there are about fifteen men on the payroll who are most of them having made their money while engaged as canvasses for publishing companies.
Helen Robb, A. B. '20, Louise Allen,
A. B. '19, and Florence Markerk, A.
A. '19, were guests Saturday and
Sunday at the Gamma Phi Beta house.
The fraternity will be a Greek letter organization and will be secret in nature, and the emblem will be similar to other honorary fraternity symbols, being a key to be worn on the watch chain.
"SMOKELESS SMOKER" FOR K. U. TO SEND BAND TO OKLAHOMA
WOMEN URGED TO STAND ROLLCALL
Big Doings Including Boxing, Wrestling, Comedy Stunts, Quartette, and Beaoucp Speeches Makes Up Plans for Thursday Night
Dr. Allen Says Band is Next to Team in Winning Games 50 Centimes to be Charged for the Ponderous Event
A smoker without smoke. Oh, boy, some disguise for a ralty,
eh what?
So loyal dwellers on the Mountain of Oread are instructed to loosen up their vocal cords, and shine up their eye-glasses, because there's going to be some wild shoutin' and peerin' when the affair comes off.
MANY STUDENTS WANT WORK THROUGH Y. M
And it's goin' to be some rally, the like of which ain't been seen in these here parts since Georgie Washington threw a mean hatchet.
Only Twenty-One Places Now Open For Students Desiring Employment
The Y. M. C. A. has found permanent work for twenty-seven men during the month and odd jobs for eighty-one men, making a total of 108 jobs. These positions, with those of the previous month that are still going make income of approximately six-hundred and seventy-five dollars.
The Y. M. C. A. still has twenty-one permanent jobs filed for men. Most of these jobs are soliciting and insurance selling so those desiring experience along these lines should look over the list immediately.
"People desiring student assistance should call the Y. M. C. A.' immedately as there are many more student requests open at present," said Harry M. Stuart, associate secretary of the Y. M. C. A. today. The following report of positions filled during October was out by Mr. Stuart this morning:
Since the opening of school 169 permanent and 208 odd jobs have been found, making a total of 577 jobs for 288 different men. The total income for this week was approximately seven-thousand and fifty dollars.
Permanent jobs are coming in. Rather slowly at present and odd jobs are not as plentiful as last month. Work is coming from forty-sixty cents an hour.
Plain Tales From the Hill
Now that the election has been decided, we have nothing to look forward to except the K. U. Follies andohn Porter's annual date.
Arrangements have been completed toward barricading all windows and stuffing all doors with cotton when the "gobbs" meet Thursday. It is also possible that the swapping will be present, so that the sweating will be limited in some degree.
This is the time of year when "trips to Kansas City" begin to appear as important parts of party budgets.
When "Scrubby" concedes that another Valley team has a poor chance of beating Kansas, and when the sport editor of this esteemed sheet turns in a grammatically correct sentence then, and then only, will some student profess an overwhelming adoration for Professor Newman.
"Lazelle in Recital" cries a Kansas headline. At any rate, it isn't in the dictionary.
Floyd E. Welsh was given some votes for constable in Douglas County. It is doubtful that those who named him for that office had their minds on the first or the last syllable, or the second and last.
Captain M. C. Grenata will give a Motion Picture Lecture on the A. E. F. Army Gas School, Thursday at 4:00 o'clock in Chem Lab Room, Hall. Chemistry Engineer will meet immediately after the lecture.
Pref. W. S. Long will present a paper on "A general survey of the work of the state food laboratory," at the regular meeting of the Chem- 100 and hold Wednesday, at 4:30. Members of the staff are urged to be present.
"There's got to be a small price of admission, about fifty centures, so it is said, but believe the facts, men and women of the jury panel, it is surely going to be worth it. You see, our musicians who have banded together and called themselves a band have to give you some money if any funda. Coach Alien is that the next important thing to the team which is considered rather a necessary prerequisite for a victory - the band, and the whole school agrees with him. Consequently, it is generally rumored that when the K-club members, the Kuka's, the Humma-ranker to row sell tickets for the smoker, they will be met with an eager pleas to obtain the bits of cardboard.
Now loosen up your auricle nerve,
and list to what the morrow eve has
'n store for you:
At 7:15 o'clock—the date rule will be off—some 2,000 students will gather at Robinson Gymnasium where all the stunts of a smoker will be run off, with the exception that there will be no smoke.
And then, well, glimpse this program:
John Brodie will talk Scotch without having any of it.
Stauffer vs. Mason present "The Half-Nelson," a gripping act.
Widner and Hill will present "The Marquis of Queensbury," in three rounds of fancy punching.
"Unknowns" will bring out a "Burlesque of Boxing" that is guaranteed to kill 'em rather fridgily.
And in addition, talks will be made by Chancellor Lindley, Professor MacMurry—he will actually speak this time—Dr. James Nalsimh, and all the talks and Brodie's sketch, the land will be "hooft" and provide plenty of noise to mingle with the expected yells.
After the rally, everyone will march down to the Santa Fe station and give the team a regular send-off. From there, the mobs will return down Massachusetts and at some street corner, a fire will be started. After the conflagration has lit up those who aren't already intoxicated by theism, the thousands will go to seek the shelter of sheets and blankets.
Tomorrow afternoon, the band will give several concerts down town in an effort to raise some of the money necessary for the Norman trip. However, the bulk of it must be raised from the "smokeless" smoker, and everyone in the University should turn out. Cheerleader Winsor declares that the band will need another role they are cailed, entailed, pleaded with, yea—even remonstrated with—to be able to stand a roll-call at the "Gym."
Bulletin number six, "Oil and Gas Resources of Kansas," is being prepared by the State Geological Survey. Parts one and two are now ready for distribution. Part one is a brief statement of the general geology of petroleum products and their recovery, and a summary of the stratigraphy or geologic context of the bulletin. Special reports on the various counties in the oil and gas area, will be published as separate. These bulletins are free and will be sent out for the mailing cost which is ten cents.
All Soph Hop tickets must be check-in by Thursday evening in order to make final preparations for the rehearsal. We will give the general last minute confusion.
