Faculty Members Tell Views
On 1948 Presidential Race
BY HERB DENENBERG
Faculty comment on the election was of a million
varieties. Here are seven of those varieties from men
found in the Political Science department and I hilosopny
department offices:
Dr T F Storer, Fhilosophy department: The most
significant thing about the elections, in my opinion, is
the failure of the recognized statistical techniques to pre
dict accurate results. I believe this will be generally the
case with all attempts to find laws governing human be
havior. As soon as the law, and its predictions, are dis
covered, these factors become new, unconsidered elements
and thus render the previously discovered laws invalid.
C J Schneider, Political Science department: This
should teach everybody not to make predictions on football
games or elections.
G. Krebs, Political Science department: I nope he
(Truman) will push his civil rights program.
P Spielberg, Philosophy department: It was reported
to me' that Winchcll's explanation of the surprise results
was as follows: The predictions of the poll-takers con-
j - rA,Mano flint TVwev was a shoo-in, SO
Yinceu many n.tjuunc.w ......w ... . ., ,
they voted Democratic. This seems to me like saying that (
lots of people had been yearning to vote Democratic for j
years and years and now when it looked safe, they did. j
Ivan Pondel, Political Science department (reader) : The :
thin that impressed me most about the election is that
one man virtually single-handedly through his refusal to j
admit defeat could overcome such odds with no support
from the party which was morally bound to give him help.
I think his position as a man fighting against such odds
created his appeal to the American people. . j
ti t mr.n Political Science decartment: I think the
most significant thing about the election is the fact that
the public repudiation of the 80th Congress carried with
it a Democratic victory."
Dr. W. H. Werkmeister, head of the Philosophy depart
ment: The more support the President has, the better it is,
because the party program can be carried through and the
party can be pinned down for its actions.
BY BI D DOWNING.
Well, another 'week has "flew"
by . . . and what a week it was,
what with Homecoming and all.
One of Ihe main hifihlighls w.is
the party it Barbara Zcnier's
Saturday night after the big
dance. Everyone was there and
everyone had a "whec" ol a
time.
Jerry Ferguson wishes that a
"certain little Lincoln girl" would
give up the "Quest" that she has
been on for the last couple of
weeks. Jerry says that his in
terest is now in the Delta Gamma
house. Her initials are J. C.
(those of his interest, that is).
Then there is the one about
Martha DeLong and her horses. It
seems that Martha took her horses
to Kansas City to show them off
a few weeks ago, and they con
tracted some sort of sickness.
Now Martha can really sympa
thize with her prodigies because
she has the same illness and is
taking the same medicine as her
belov ed horses.
Jack Donaldson came from
Wayne on Saturday to help make
"Candy" Jones' week-end a most
enjoyable one.
Nancy Clark wants a date with
a Thi belt. ; (Not any particular
Thi Dolt, just any old Thi Delt).
Interested parties call 2-1926.
Wilma "Wimpy" Washington
warns all young girls about "the
ways of college men." She was on
the" verge of going steady with a
fellow but was talked out of it
by James Irvin. Now she is won
dering about her decision . . .
James hasn't called her since.
GOING:
Ann Webster and Taul Hart
man. Laura Schcrff and Gene Snooks.
Del llolstein and Bill Coffee.
Nancy Glynn and Don I instrom
(Sorrv. Bob).
GONE:
Shirley Sabin and Karl Quiscn
berry. Gloria Ferschtman and Harold :
Abramson.
Jody Bredenberg and "Mouse" ;
Munson.
t ,mo.nhle individuals about campus have been telling us
what they would do if they were writing this column. Wed like
to pavs said commentary along to our readcrs-we can dream, can t
wc but most of it cannot be phrased in language which even ap
proaches delicacy. -
Since we're dealing in wishful thinking here s what wed do.
If we were the winners of the men's Homecoming decoration,
wed find out what happened to our trophy on Saturday night
' provided it's a mystery.
If we weie a women's house in the same competition wed
be "spun around" by our ability to wield a hammer-provided
we wielded it.
If we were certain Kosmet Klub members we'd never be able
to figure out how our own fraternities made the show.
If we were a Republican we'd be floored we are.
If we were the Union that would be tricky we'd close the
Crib from 11 to 12 on Friday. .
If we were the Cadet Corns we d be afraid to announce
price of the tickets for the Military Ball, too.
If we were a coed who likes orchids we d go to the ball
with a cadet officer.
If we were a member of Panhellenic we'd stand on our own
two feet. .
If we were one of the senior honoraries wed quit shaking
and take some action on almost anything.
If we were the AWS board wed take the new point system out
of moth balls.
if we were Lewandowski we'd announce a stadium seating pro
gram for nxxt year NOW!
if we were the football team we'd win a game any game.
if we had less space to fill we'd quit boring you.
If we were the student body we'd go to vespers tonight paid
advertisement.
If we were the ROTC band we d pat ourselves on the back.
If we were next year's Homecoming committee we'd shut our
eyes and pick the band out ot a hat.
If we were the Student Council wed quit trying to raise
graduation requirements maybe they want their jobs permanently.
If we were one of the "powers that be" we d rent the coliseum
to student organizations for less no matter how it hurt.
If we weir the University theatre we'd put on a play as good
as the last.
Tf we were wilting this column we'd quit stealing onr ideas
from Les Glotfelly.

Good Holds
Varsity Till
Coach Harry Good put the bas
ketball team through its first
scrimmage of the season Tuesday.
Scrimmages will be a part of the
dailv work from now till the
opener with Northwest Missouri
Teachers December 1.
The scrimmage was a lively one
as the scrap for positions is just
beginning. Showing the ferocity
of the contest was the fact that
three men received injuries.
Claude Rcthei ford, leading
scorer on last winter's five, ,was
sidelined with a badly sprained
ankle which he received while
grappling for a rebound. He was
taken to a hospital for an X-ray,
which revealed there had been no
fracture. Retherford will be out of
action for an estimated ten days.
