TRIVIA.
Kenny Baker, tenor of the Fred
Allen Star Theater had a busy
day last Thursday. It was Kenny
Baker day at the New York
World's Fair and after being guest
of honor at various pavilions and
exhibits, he was given a luncheon
at the Ford pa"ilion, made a tele
phone call to Hollywood from the
telephone exhibit, appeared with
the World's Fair band, and in the
evening headed the Mardi Gras
parade. His principal comment
was, "Gee!"
Radio seems to be a young
man's business. Of the 246 em
ployes of CBS in Hollywood, 192
are men and out of this number
121 registered for the draft.

turns for the entire campus. Ag
gave Willkie 73.7 percent this
week, a difference of only 2.5 per
cent from results of the entire
campus. Ag campus has proved a
true thermometer of presidential
favor. The farm administration of
the New Deal is, according to
opinions expressed on ag, not so
popular as is thought. To corrobo
rate this conclusion, the strong
pro-Willkie feeling of students
from rural sections (70.5 percent
for Willkie) may be pointed out.
Teachers strongest.
Among 'he colleges, Willkie's
strongest support came from
Teachers. This fits with our re
sults showing heavy Willkie sup
port among the women students,
for Teachers' college is made up
mostly of women.
Seniors supported Willkie with
more verve than any of the other
classes, with the freshmen giving
the next best help, while the soph
omores and juniors struck an av
erage between the two.
