KU Political Clubs Set Week's Activities
KU political clubs have two main activities
The political clubs have two main activities for this week:
Jack Kennedy will be in Kansas City, Friday, and Robert Ellsworth the Republican candidate for Congress from the Second District will be speaking tonight.
THE YOUNG Democrats, in conjunction with the Douglas County Central Committee, held a "First Voter" party at the Teepee last night drawing approximately 400 guests. They were surprised by a visit from Frank Theis, candidate for Senator.
Theis criticized Sen. Andrew Schoepeel for refusing to debate with him, either formally or informally, on any issue.
John Potuecek, Kansas senator from Wellington, who is running for election, criticized the Daily Kansan, saying, it could "go to Hell."
HE WAS REFFERING to an editorial which appeared in the Kansas Monday consisting of an open letter to Gov. George Docking asking him to state his position on education.

Frank Theis Questions Sen. Schoeppel's Silence
TOPEKA —(UPI)— Frank Tens,
democratic candidate for U.S. Sen-
tor, said today continued silence
by Sen. Andrew F. Schoeppel, on
whether he was chairman of a Sen-
ate subcommittee "casts doubts on
the validity of all his campaign uter-
terances."
Schoeppel said a week ago he was not chairman in 1954 of the subcommittee on surface transportation. Theis then produced the U. S. Code Congressional and Administrative News for 1954 listing Schoeppel chairman of the body, and Schoeppel's office in Washington later confirmed that he was chairman of the subcommittee for about 10 months.
Theis said the subcommittee deals largely with trucking legislation and that a short time after Schoeppel's appointment, a Wichita law firm in which Thesis claims Schoeppel is a senior partner gained a number of large trucking firms as clients.
In reply to Schoeppel's accusation that Theis is not discussing the is-
"I must insist," Theis said at a news conference today, "and I think the people of Kansas expect me to insist, that Sen. Schoeppel offer an explanation for his recent untruthful statement in this campaign. There has been more than adequate time for the Senator to say why he made this serious mistreatment of fact to the people of Kansas."

sues, the Democratic nominee said the question of whether Schoeppel is "representing the people of Kahsas or himself" overshadows all others.
"Positions on other issues mean nothing if a candidate is so interested in his private business affairs that he cannot devote himself to the peoples' business," Theis declared.
He said, "This inattention to the affairs of the people of Kansas" is displayed in Schoeppel's voting attendance record.
"If the Senator is still in doubt as to where I stand, I suggest that he meet me in give-and-take debate before a forum of the people of this state," Theis said.
