KU Spotlight Turns To Politics for Week
Nov.4 Vote Is Subject
Political Emphasis Week begins at 4 p.m. Wednesday when faculty members will talk on the proposed constitutional amendments.
The talks will take place during a coffee hour in the Music and Browsing Room of the Kansas Union.
James Titus, assistant professor of political science, will speak on the proposed Kansas amendment III, which concerns the "right to work." Amendment II, which concerns state participation in flood control and water conservation projects, will be the subject of a talk by Marvin Meade of the Governmental Research Center.
Thomas L. W. Johnson, Rockford, Ill., political science graduate student, will speak on amendment I, which would change the method of selecting Kansas Supreme Court Justices.
Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy will moderate the Campus Forum 8 p.m. Thursday in the Kansas Union Ballroom. Democratic State Sen. Joseph McDowell, Kansas City, Kan., and Republican State Sen. Donald C. Hults, Lawrence, will present party views at the forum.
Members of the KU-Y are in charge of plans for the week. Kenneth Megill, Vassar sophomore, is chairman.
Political Emphasis Week will ent Nov. 4, election night. It is sponsored by all campus political organizations and Kansas Citizenship Clearing House.
On Friday Miss Beatrice Jacquart, Santana, Kan., will speak on the role of women in politics at a coffee in the Kansas Union. Miss Jacquart is the only woman representative in the state legislature.
The presidents of the KU Young Democrats and Young Republicans will speak at 4 p.m. next Monday at a coffee hour in the Kansas Union.
Ed Chapman, Leavenworth third-year law, and Joan Stafford, St. Joseph, Mo., senior, will explain why they support the Democratic and Republican viewpoints, respectively.
An election night party will start at 9 p.m. Nov. 4 in the Jayhawk Room of the Kansas Union. A moderator, who has not been chosen yet, will announce the election returns as they come in and interview persons attending for their predictions of the election's outcome.
Students Will Vote On Amendments
The entire student body will vote Wednesday on two amendments to the All Student Council constitution.
In addition to voting on the two amendments, freshmen will elect class officers, and freshman women will elect ASC representatives.
The major amendment, which was passed by a large majority in the ASC, would change the eligibility requirements for candidates for student body president and vice-president.
If the amendment is passed, a candidate would either have to have one semester of service on the ASC or notify the ASC in December that he wished to run. After notifying the ASC, the candidate would have to attend all ASC meetings between December and the general elections in April.
Under present Council rules, candidates must have served one year on the ASC, with no exceptions.
The second amendment would require a two-thirds majority in the ASC to propose amendments and to approve presidential appointments.
Nixon Blasts 'Radicals'; Morse Raps 'Defeatism'
MINNEAPOLIS — (UPI) — Vice-President Richard M. Nixon said today the word "radical" was the "only logical term to use" in referring to some Democratic candidates.
Nixon defined a "radical" as one who "advocates high government spending."
He told a news conference that election of some "radical" democrats to Congress would lead to more "nationalization and socialization if you mean more government and less private enterprise."
Nixon also said he and President Eisenhower agreed that "implementation" of foreign policy is a proper campaign issue. "I believe that foreign policy and domestic policy have got to be discussed." Nixon said. He said the President has cleared up a "misunderstanding" with a statement that the "broad areas" of foreign policy should not be injected into the campaign, but that discussion of "implementation" of policy was proper.
The Vice-President flatly refused to predict that the Republicans would win the election.
NEW YORK — (UPI) — Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore) said last night that Secretary of State John Foster Dulles has presented "a sad example of defeatism" in refusing to submit the Quemoy-Matsu question and other issues involving Communist nations to the World Court.
Morse, speaking at the 13th annual Charter Day Dinner of Yeshiva University, said his suggestion in 1955 that the offshore islands dispute be submitted to the court "was ignored." Former New York Gov. Thomas E. Dewey made the same proposal recently, he said, and Dulles "characteristically dismissed it on the ground that Communist China would never agree to submit the ownership of Quemoy to the court."
"Democracies have missed one opportunity after another," Morse said, "to demonstrate their dedication to the cause of peace by failing to invite Communist China and the Soviet Union on similar occasions to adjudicate before the World Court the issues that have verged on war."
HIGH STEPPER-Ann Franklin, Shawnee Mission North drum majorette, was one of 4,200 high school musicians who brought music and color to the KU-Tulane football game Saturday. Sixty four high school and junior high school marching bands paraded down Massachusetts Street Saturday morning while thousands of viewers edged their way between parked cars and leaned from second-story store windows. It took about an hour for the line of march to pass a given point. After the parade the musicians gathered for a picnic in the Potter Lake area. They climaxed their appearance on the campus with a mass half-time performance at the KU-Tulane game. It was a record turnout for the musicians.
No Pope Elected in 8 Ballots
VATICAN CITY — (UPI) — Black smoke emerging from the special chimney atop the Sistene Chapel signalled that the Sacred College of Cardinals had failed to agree on a new pontifif after eight ballots in two days.
The fact that the vote had gone to eight ballots appeared to indicate indicate that the cardinals were deeply divided on the Church's immediate needs.
This division seemed to be over whether to choose a political or a pastoral pope.

Mitchell Sees Greatest Show in 10 Years 'School Spirit Won Game'
By Bob Macy
Football coach Jack Mitchell praised the student body Sunday for what he called the "greatest show of loyalty and school spirit I've seen in my 10 years of coaching."
Mitchell asked that The Daily Kansan let students know that the support shown Saturday had "more to do with winning the game than anything else."
"The men who are playing for KU are really impressed with the way the students have backed them up in the last two games. I mean it sincerely when I say that the players came into the dressing room at halftime choked up about the way the student body was yelling for them. It's the greatest tonic I've even seen—both for the boys and for the coaches." Mitchell asid.
Mitchell expressed the hope that students would continue their support by attending the game at Manhattan this Saturday.
"I was told when I came to KU that the school spirit wasn't much to brag about. However, I think the last two Saturdays prove that the students want a really good football team. Spirit shown at these two games is just what develops championship teams," Mitchell commented.
Mitchell singled out KU's second touchdown drive Saturday to illustrate his point. The KU cheering section, along with the rest of the partisan crowd, was cheering so loudly that quarterback Bill Crank had to motion to the crowd for silence so that his boys could hear the signals.
"The amazing thing was that we had only 20,000 people there. Usually it takes a crowd of 45,000 before they can make enough noise to bother the quarterback," Mitchell said.
"I've coached a lot of schools in the past 10 years, yet I've never seen school spirit that can match the demonstration put on the past two Saturdays," Mitchell said.
