Further reports of the success
of Jimmie Lunceford's orchestra
during his Norway tour have been
received. Praise for the popular
negro band, which will play at the
Spring Interfratemity Ball, to be
held at Eddyside, runs high in
Norway.
The "Tidens Tegn"
(Signs of the Time) of Oslo, Norway, for February 25, says of
Lunceford's orchestra, "Those w h j
understand and love jazz m u s i c - I am glad to say there are many in
•.his town—went wild over it. I
don't think there is a better orche.stra than Jimmie Lunceford's.
Every number was received with
cheers, and the livelier the show
grew, the wilder the applause."
The "Aftenposten" speaks w-ith
equal praise for Jimmie's performance dn the University Hall at Olso.
"They played for a house that wa->
sold out to the last seat.
There
was noise, and cheers, and raging,
and cries. It was re.ally moving to
witness it."

Eleven Freshmen and One Junior Hear Field Secretary ef
Emergency Peace Campaign Speak

y i
By Jos. Paull
Miss Barbara Stewart,
field
.•secretary of the Emergency Peace
Campaign spoke to eleven freshmen and one junior on peace work
at 3 p. m. yesterday in Brainerd
Hall.
Whenever a student approached
the sofa where Miss Stewart was
seated, she would raise her eyes,
smile and say, "Draw up a chair."
Only one student refused, and he
finally succumbed, after sitting ou'.
m the hall for an hour.
Miss Stewart reveaied a large
part of what she termed her "lurid
past" while she explained her mis:ion. She sat in the middle of U:e
lecture room of Brainerd Hall,
with her legs curled under her,
and spoke in a broad southern accent about everything from etchip^s to her ajje,
.
Miss Stewart was born in Pensacola, Fla., twenty-three years
ago, in an atmosphere which w a j
most certainly not conducive t o
peace. To begin with, her father
was a munitions' manufacturer.
She was raised in a navy yard, haa
lived through the last years of the
dreaded Klu Klux Klan, and haa
seen a cross burn outside a house
for fifteen hours.
Perhaps it was this hostile atmosphere that taught her the value
of peace. She has worked in a
drug store, has been to six universitiea and gave up a job to work
for the causQ of
international
peace.
She was indeed colorful with
her sparkling eyes. Her audience

CAMPUS ELECTIONS
Nominations for all four classes of the student
body were made in chapel today. These men are
running for honors which, despite the stigma politics
has placed on them, express the opinion of the student
body as to who its leaders should be.
It is the duty on the p a r t of the candidates to come
out in the open a n d let the college h e a r w h a t they have
to say. Elections to class offices, ball chairmanships.
Student Council and the like have been, are, a n d always will be accomplished through politics. It is the
type t h a t is to be played t h a t matters, and it is h e r e
t h a t the candidates should endeavor to clean up a
situation t h a t h a s become r a t h e r ugly the last few
years.
It is the duty of the student body to reach the polls
Tuesday and vote its preferences as to who these leaders should be a n d not to complain afterwards t h a t
so-and-so was elected to office through campus politics.
Regardless of the fact th:.i many of the honors to be
voted on are merely figiutneads, the sy.stem of elections is a democratic one, and democracy assumes t h a t
the students, in this case, do express their opinion
through voting.
LET'S CLEAN HOUSE
It becomes necessary, frequently, to alter, abolish,
vt change the importance of certain campus offices
due to changes in their w o u h brought about by the
very men who hold them. K. R. T. recognized this
fact last fall in connection with the office of Intramural
Manager and reduced its point rating from eight to
six. However, in allowing it to retain its position as a
major campus office, it was too lenient in. its action
upon a position which has reached its lowest point.
Stop to consider for a moment. First of all, there
is no work for the present Intramural Manager to do.
It is a holdover of a once-powerful campus politician
who made of it an outrageous and false position for the
good of his own and one other fraternity. A regular
exchange of this office occurs each year between these
two houses. The present Intramural Manager and his
junior and sophomore assistants know no more of w h a t
is going on in college intramurals than any other member of the student body. Yet the senior and junior
managers have already received major letters and
have always been free of gym requirements.
Consider it in relation to other major positions.
It reaps greater r e w a r d s than a year on a major varsity
sports teams, greater r e w a r d s than four years on The
Lafayette with an ultimate place on the Board of Control, yet it has never actually been a competitive office
and has no usual function at the present time.
The attitude of a student who saw one of the
manajpers sporting his major letter recently shows how
far this position ha.s sunk. He wanted to know how in
the world the man could have obtained the major letter. He was told that the man in question was Intramural Manager. The student still looked blank—he
had never heard what an Intramural Manager was.
It is time we cleaned house and swept out this
desperate vestige of rotten politics. The position
should be abolished and abolished as soon as possible.
MARQUIS CHANGES
The new changes to the conatitution of the Marquia Association in relation to election? will have no
effect on the campaigns of the two candidates running
for t h a t position. Since the amendment designed to
put teeth in the term "active members" of the Association will not be put into operation until September next
year, any charges t h a t might be levied against the
present administration cannot be made.
As far aa the fift>' per cent rule stating t h a t unless members have attended at least half the meetings
they will not be eligible fo.- office or to vote» the Aaao-

FRIDAY APRIL 2.3, 1937.
LAFAYETTE
By W. Kintner
Fir.?t apologies to B. Rudner.
Somehow our name was tacked to
his column last Tue.sday. It would
seem someone along the line has
a mania for garbling articles and
misplacing names, to judge from
the first issue of "Tory" and the
current issue of "Whig."
"I rccommomi that an appropriation of $1,600,000,000 be provided for work relief for the fiscal
year 1938, and that it be made
ivailablc early in June so that
its expenditure can be
properly
jilanned prior to July first." This
from >rr. Roosevelt's .speech on
the budget delivered this week.
He goes over the same .stuff every
time he talks about money. First
he speaks soothingly—next year
We'll balance the budget . . . We
mu.st economize . . . but let's take
just this one more fling.
We're
thirty-five billions in tho red now,
so what harm can one and a half
billions more do? .\nd, by the
way, you'd best let me know by
early June just what 1 muy spend.
1 have to start getting rid of it
July first, you know."
As would be expected Our Leader's dependable puppets in the
House are ready to jump when the
.strings are puWcd.
Maverick of
Texas hopes to jump a little higher
by suggesting that the figure be
boosted to three billions. But the
Representatives may well remember F. D. R. promises taxes for
next year, and next year they all
go before the people again. Voters
have a na.sty habit of not being
very corrtal to congressmen who
increase taxes.
However, the Senate's reaction
to the message is a welcome indication that the halo around tho
president is continuing to grow
thinner. Not that there should be
brazen disrespect to the head of the
nation.
Hut there should be a
healthy
opposition,
vigorou i
enough to check faulty legislr.tion
c'-nd excessive expenditures. Fir.st,
the Senate became restive over th;
.strike situation. Obviously
Mr.
Roosevelt could have controlled the
situation. Perhaps he could not
have acted without loosing John
L. Lewis' valuable support.
But
the Senate was ncverthele.-^ irked into formulating a strongly
worded condemnation of the lawlessness of the C. 1. O.'s policy.
The resolution was defeated, but
weakly, and many a loyal Democrat voted for it.
Then F. D. R. pulled the courtpacking plan out of his hat. More
Uemocmts refrained from applauding. This time .some CI. O. P.
I be rai s joined in on the boos—liberals like Johnson and Rorah. And
for the present .at least, that chorus
is loud enough to make Mr. R.
pretty sure thut there were somo
in the audience who didn't like tht>
act.
The third indication of revolt
is even stroifger. For the eighth
consecutive year the government
will spend more than it earns. And
yot the president demonds $1,.S00,000,000 to spend "on relief." He
as usual, will decide how it will be
'Jihposed of. Even loyal New Dealers feel he should cut expenses, and
Senator Byrnes of South Carolina, un outstanding
Roosevelt
supporter, suggests the figure be
."Ut to one billion dollars. Senator
Harrison, the chairman of the powerful finance committee, hai promised Byrnes his support in mapping a plan to fight for the reduction.

that proverb, "A stitch in time
