Liquor Deadly, Says Steele

He said the period of prohibition in the 1930's failed "not because of the law but because of the failure of the minority to respect the will of the majority.
"We are aware righteousness cannot be legalized," he continued. "We do not propose to try to enforce anyone by law to live according to Christian standards.

UN "Hamstrung"

the same. "We just don't want foreign policy without representation," he wryly remarked.
He said the function of the UN would be seriously "hamstrung" by leaving out the "largest, if not most powerful country in the world."
"Look at the Security Council composed of the U.S., England, France, Russia and Formosa. Is this a true representation of all the world powers?"
"We must have the confidence to feel our system is better and will triumph in honest debate. We cannot afford a cowardly approach," he said.
Miss Elliot summed up the negative position in her rebuttal by outlining their presentations.
"Admission of Red China would weaken the principles of the UN . . . the lack of expulsion of one nation is not a prerequisite for admission of another . . . Red China has created an aggressive situation by their doctrine of total conquest by any means at hand.
"The UN must maintain its present position if it is to remain effective." she concluded.
At one point in his rebuttal, Newton was attacking the UN's exclusion of Red China. "This isolation breeds hostility and ignorance . . . and is just damn dangerous," he said.
He slackened his delivery long enough to apologize to the audience and say "you'll have to excuse my language. I've been listening to Harry Truman too much."
"We do propose to protect the innocent, to help the weak, to encourage self-reliance and independence and to defend the great principles that made Kansas a great state."
THE REV, MR. STEELE was questioned about certain planks in the party platform pertaining to moral standards for teachers. Bible reading in public schools and censorship of public school books to guard against use of Communist propaganda.
He answered that a Bible reading program in Coffeyville schools had been unsuccessful only because a small minority had been against it.
By high moral standards he said that he meant "good Christians who set good examples for the children."
This was an insufficient answer for the questioner and he blurted out: "Those that are sexually immoral or set an example of drinking. Is that clear enough?"
The Rev. Mr. Steele answered as best as he could.
THE LINE of questioning became excited as members of the audience pressed for specific answers to points in the platform.
Disputing his claim that the majority wanted prohibition, one questioner said 7 out of 10 people are reported to drink occasionally.

for peace by insisting "there is no push-button magic" for averting war.
AT HIS FIRST speaking stop, Mr. Kennedy noted that today began the final week of his campaign. He said that in the next seven days he would travel in 17 states to carry this message:
"The choice for the United States is not merely between two men, Vice President Nixon and myself, or between two parties. It is between two different concepts of the United States."
He said it is a choice between whether "the 1960's can be the best years for the United States — or whether we can continue to slide adrift."
VICE PRESIDENT NIXON joins Henry Cabot Lodge today for a home-stretch Republican drive to
capture New Jersey's 16 electoral votes.
The double-barreled visit by the GOP presidential and vice presidential nominees marks the first time either national party has sent both of its candidates into the state at the same time to seek votes.
Mr. Lodge, fresh from a day of campaigning in New York City, makes an 11-speech tour of five northern New Jersey counties during the day on a "Lodge special" campaign train. He is to meet Mr. Nixon tonight at Teterboro Airport for rallies in Ridgewood and Newark
VICE PRESIDENT NIXON plans a powerful one-two punch at the Democrats during this final week of the presidential campaign. The other half of his fighting team is President Eisenhower.
The Republican candidate announced he would make a 2,400-mile
jet flight from Los Angeles to Anchorage, Alaska, next Sunday to carry out a pledge to campaign in all 50 states. His office said he would be the first presidential candidate of this century to visit all states.
FROM ANCHORAGE, Mr. Nixon will fly 3,100 miles overnight to Detroit to appear at a final rally there next Monday. Then he will return to Washington for a nationally televised election eve appeal with Mr. Lodge, his running mate. He will spend election day in Washington.

Sigma Nu 'Knight Life' Party
AUDIO HOUSE PARTY OF THE MONTH
Bv Priscilla Ann Burton
Three types of music being played simultaneously in different rooms of the house was a feature of the Sigma Nu fraternity party held Friday evening.
Mood music, rock n' roll and modern jazz were the three types of music featured at the Sigma Nu "Knight Life" party.
Mood music — semi-classical, classical and swing — was played in the Nu Room of the chapter house. Decorations in the room were of Japanese flair. The hanging dividers and wall mural were painted in what is termed the "unfinished statement" in Japanese art. Painted in shades of brown and green was a tree scene and a scene with birds outlined against the moon. Tables for four were arranged around the room between the dividers with dancing in the middle of the room. Refreshments in the mood room included hors d'oeuvres and soft drinks.
The Sigma Nu dining room was alive with members and dates swingin' to rock 'n' roll music. This room with plenty of space to maneuver, was decorated with wall murals painted in black silhouette on a grayed red background. Peanuts cartoons, Elvis Presley rock 'n' rollers and teenage hot rodders adorned the walls. Record covers from rock 'n' roll albums were suspended from the ceiling. Potato chips, potato chip dip and cokes were the spread in this room.
The basement chapter room featured modern jazz music. The room was furnished only with cushions on the floor in the true beatnik style facing a wall mural of modern art. The modern art drawing was accented with special red lighting effects. A blackboard was also provided for writing and as a means of expression. Espresso and pastries were served at the candlelit tables in an adjacent room.
The dress of the evening was casual because of the many changes of atmosphere that could be enjoyed by all.
Audio House music was wired to the three rooms from centrally located turntables. Everyone got to enjoy his or her favorite kind of music simultaneously.
Sigma Nu members spent about four weeks planning for the party and painting the flats and murals. A contest was held to select the name, "Knight Life," for the party. This title has a number of meanings for the fraternity. The knight is a fraternity symbol plus the fact that the title, "Knight Life," conveys the night club atmosphere. The rest of the house was decorated in fall fruit and leaves and Halloween decor.
Chaperones for the gala affair were Mrs. J. E. Stevens, Mrs. Eleanor Mitchell, Mrs. John Skie, Mrs. Marian E. Wilson and Mrs. Edward Dicks.
Sigma Nu's and their dates enjoying the party and Audio House music included Tim Howell and Connie Scott; Ed Sexton and Mary Ann Heckethorn; Ron Dalby and Ann Blair; Pat Henry and Sue Taksel; Ron Gallagher and Jan Davis; Roger K. Wilson and Judy Williams; Bob Williams and Linda Gillam; Doug Lancaster and Mary McKern; Grover Askins and Rosland Finney; Kent T. Perry and Tony Lyons; Rick Mittelstadt and Sherry Harrel.
Harold Mueller and Nan Newton; Gary Sauners and Judy Addis; Frank Anain and Carol Hauenstein; Bill Monty and Paula Roscoe; Ebenezer Karner and Sally Francis; Gene Bailey and Jody Wade; Jack Howard and Karen Garrett; Burns Derrough and Marylee Kiser; Jerry Dykes and Jane Machland; Jim Schulz and Eileen Beltz; Phil Young and Pat Culbertson; Mike Connor and Dorothy Stevens.
Jerry Roberts and Kay Prelogar; Claude Jardon and Helen Bretts; Steve Van De Mark and Laurie Ferman; John Stumbo and Naney Kinser; Dave Trump and Marty Packer; Bob Hamilton and Terrie Maher; Ron Van Meter and Susie Gaskins; Don Hunter and Camil Taylor; Shelby Swain and Linda Stark; Parker Lessig and Pam Shickendone; Tom Schwindt and Prudy Martino; Ray Woods and Judy Skinner and Dick Prig and Mary Deal.
The Sigma Nu's had a lot of fun, we had a lot of fun and you can too, with party music from the Audio House.
