For This Issue f News: Morris Rosenberg Sports: Ray Lowery CARO-GRAPHICS by 3SS, I 'TOWN MEETING" TOMORROW NIGHT . A statement by President Roosevelt that slip ped by almost unnoticed in the excitement of the rest of his Chicago speech was that the two great mediums of communication today are Ra,dio and Cinema. .. . " j( -. . . Publishers were prompt to point out that Mr. President intentionally overlooked the newspap ers because he had been peeved over their treat ment of the Huge Black-Ku Klux affair, and other little incidents that, in type, hadn't looked so good for the New Deal. Doubtless the Chief Executive is quite delight ed with Radio, for it has made his fireside chats the most powerful, sort of public appeals. It shot out his stand on international relations to all cor ners of the world simultaneously. And, he might have added, it makes possible the increasingly popular and increasingly important Town Meet ings of the Air, non-partisan national broadcasts on current topics. ' . For the 1937-38 season America's Town Meet ings will have 20 discussions of "Must America Fight Again?," "The Labor Question," and "How Far Should Government Regulate Business?" and problems of equal significance and timeliness. Tomorrow night, for example, uncensored and unpledged opinions on "What Should Be America's Policy in the Far East?" will be broadcast from a large auditorium in New York City. Down in Graham Memorial (or at their rooms) all interested students will listen to the pros and cons over the air ; and when the program ends will set-to in the Lounge, themselves stimulated to give some arguments of their own. All of which is a very marvelous opportunity for self broadening. The program in itself is unique to Radio. Radio has the noted handicap of rarely being able to present but one side of a question at a J.J TTTl XI -Li 1. J X. "U 4- 3 If. time, vviieuier mat iaut is wiiau cuiimuuius ju. President's admiration for the microphone is not to be said here but it is noteworthy that he omit ted from his list of modes of communication the only agent which can and almost usually does present both sides to every question the News paper. Its front page presents unbiased accounts of world events; its editorial page offers tW re actions of responsible editors who have more time than just the fleeting quarter hour of a radio broadcast in which to weigh the contents of an oft-times highly emotional speech, and then to set down more rational deductions than the or dinary radio listener could possibly make. But Town Meetings a la Radio make a bid to. overcome the worst fault of communication by air. Tomorrow night's program will, be a good sampler for those who hope that some day. the air can bring forth both sides as fairly and as promptly as the press. : poured onto the field in answer o the challenge. x The local police force inter vened to preserve Fordham's safety.

VANDENBURG TO BACK CHILD LABOR BILL Washington, Nov. 2 Senator Vandenberg (R., Mich.) indicat ed today that he would press ac tion for a child labor amendment to the constitution when the special session of congress gets underway.

Vandenberg said he would urge that the measure be brought to a vote early in the session. . Let's Be Practical About Athletics (Continued from page one) Catholic university.

Dr. Gra ham's interpretation of the honor system would have these others ejected from the Univer sity. However, punishment for an offense does not cure the causes for the breach of honor. To expel a football player merely because evidence .of his dishonesty happens to come to light does not touch those who lie simultaneously unappre hended and those who lie later in secret. Punitive action does nothing to correct the basic dence of current subsidization of which he knows nothing proves this statement. But, perhaps, this last "prac tical'' solution would not be the last word in athletic control. But it is a way out of the rotten hypocrisy that is demoralizing the spirit of our institution.

University enrollment has reached an all time high of 3200 this year. : There is an old saying that, as the student body increases, the f ootball spirit jdeclines. The cheer ing section today, it has been complained, has little of the enthusiasm that a student body of 500 had in the old days. - But there was something of the old spirit Sat urday when around 100 Carolina men gathered around the Western goal posts at Kenan' and fought off a handful of Fordham men. Anxious for the spoils of an uncertain victory this handful of men from the North raced across the field and was arduously working the posts out of the ground until the horde of Carolina men BIRTHDAY GREETINGS' ; Tor Claude C.

Cynicism Yet the student body in gen eral knows or strongly suspect that football players have been solicited, promised, and given aid. This knowledge, striking the honor principle squarely amidships, produces a general cynicism and a "take all you can get by with" attitude. It is this cynicism that is the real evil of our double-standard athletic sit uation. .

Broadfoot, and W. out of the fog of hypocrisy: (1) L. Gilliam. To abolish intercollegiate ath letics; (2) To recognize the power of the big-time sports business and try to keep stand ards up by high scholastic re quirements. It is my opinion that no man, not even a man as popular as Dr. Graham, can, in the near future, abolish intercollegiate athletics. If Dr. Graham tried, the fight would cost him his job and his loss would cost the stu dents and faculty of this insti tution many times as much. The only alternative is the recognition of athletic condi tions as they exist and an at tempt at a practical solution of the problem. Dr. Graham may feel that the adoption of this last policy would be an admission of defeat by the alumni. As a matter of fact he has already been defeat- nnt know it.

TO A FROG "What a funny bird a frog are . : When him sits he stands almost When he stands he sits almost Him ain't got no sense almost hardly ' Him ain't got no tail at all, almost hardly either When him sits him hops,' and when him doesn't hop Him sits on his little tail, which he ain't got none of Him don't know from nothin' anyhow." After reading that you are entitled to draw two conclusions that that Stein person .wrote it, or little Audrey is loose again. STYLE TRENDS CORDOVAN Reviving a style of ancient vintage, and as the custom of reviving ancient vintages, with a great deal of gusto. This rich mahogany brogue is find ing acceptance with style lead ers , everywhere and with all types of informal wear. Cor- , dovan, contrary to popular topinion, is not leather but horsehide. The best grade comes .from the posterior hide of this noble- -animal and is called shell cordovan because between the two pieces of hide there is a substance resembl ing , the human fingernail which adds materially to its wearing qualities. Carolina Cooperative Store "Styles of To-day with a Touch of Tomorrow" SLIPS THAT PASS Humor is of ten to be found in the mistakes of other people. They don't appear funny at the time of utterance, but when read in the,newspaper or re-counted by someone else, they are" hilarious. Here are some that have been clipped from nro- vmciai puDiications. A clergyman writes of "Children who can neith er walk nor talk running about the street blas pheming the name of their Creator.,, Another, in consoling the widow of the deceas ed, speaks of "Having often dandled the corpse on his knee." A professor is greatly annoyed by his pupils communicating and says, "The minute I get up to speak some, fool begins to talk." Again, the rural preacher: "The apple of dis cord has been thrown in our midst; if not nipped in the bud it will burst into a conflagration that will deluge the world." N "We wish to thank those who offered and as sisted us in the death of our uncle, Samuel Ard-sey." An agent, in advertising a new bator hnttte says: "When the baby is done drinki if shnni be unscrewed and placed under a faucet. If the naoy ooes not thrive on fresh milk it should be boiled." HEATHEN SORORITIES The following article appeared in the Univer sity of Oklahonla Daily on October 27th. "Declaring it was a case of heathens convert ing the heathens Ira Rice, militant Church of Christ evangelist, Tuesday attacked the plan of sororities presenting a religious program to in mates of the Central State hospital., ' The program, proposed by B.

' The student said that women have no place in the leadership of the church and declared there was not A singly Christian in a sorority,' be cause the orders stood for un-Christian principles. He does not believe that God would sanction un-Christian coeds taking part in religious pro grams. He said the Bible refused to "permit wo men to teach and condemned them to- silence.
