Roland Hodge Swings
For Dance Friday
Generalizing on the success of
last week’s dance, Student Coun-cil
prexy, Milton Cantor, pre-dicted
a capacity crowd for the
hop tonight. ‘‘We started the year
off with a ..bang,” said Cantor,
“and we’re going on to bigger and
better things. We’ll make the S. C.
dances the best entertainment for
your money in town.”
Music styled in the manner of
Glenn Miller, the best in smooth,
sweet swing, featuring Roland
Hodge and his orchestra, will
highlight the evening. Music
Schooler Hodge has been in the
pay dirt for some time as a pro-fessional
arranger, peddling his
arrangements to Woody Herman,
Tommy Dorsey, Reggie Childs,
and Ray Herbeck.
Couple or stag, the admission
will be the usual 75c, and dancing
will last from 9 till 1.

. . . Milton Cantor, newly elected President of the L. A. Student
Council, tells his opposition at a Council meeting Monday when
they protested the manner in which he had been elected. A pound-ing
fist gives emphasis. Parliamentarian Vinsel hastily searches for
the correct procedure in Roberts' Rules of Order.
Cantor Named L. A. Head
In Bitter Factional Vote
In a pre-arranged interplay of
hotly contested factional politics,
Milton Cantor was elected presi-dent
of the Liberal Arts Student
Council for the year 1940 to 1941
at a Council election last Monday.
Doris Gleason was named per-manent
secretary and Mason
Tush, treasurer. Vernon Lusskv
and Adele Overstreet were voted
by the council to fill the two
membership vacancies.
Under the parliamentarian
guidance of Drs. K. P. Vinsel and
Woodrow Strickler, the meeting
See editorial, page 4,
"Cooperation Key to L. A.
Council Plight."
was colored by verbal cross-fire
between the two factions, the “In-dependents”
headed by Maurice
Tennenbaum and the “Organized”
led by Cantor.
Jones Out-of-Order
Immediately following the call-ing
of the meeting to order, Leo-nard
Jones, president of the Inter-
Fraternity Council, made a mo-tion
that the temporary officers
(Cantor, Gleason and Tush) be
made permanent. Tennenbaum
protested Jones’ eligibility to
make any motion being an ex-officio
member of the council. Dr.
Vinsel, presiding, ruled the mo-tion
out of order. Cantor then
moved the same motion.
By a count of 7 to 6 the motion
was passed. Members voted as
follows: for: Millon Cantor, Doris
Bridges, Doris Gleason, Stacey
Hall, Hayes Holmes. Alice Otte
and Mason Tush.
Opposed: Joseph Cyrus, Ray
Heer, Margaret Hughes, Richard
Kneisel, Charles Mendel and
Maurice Tennenbaum.
Following the election of offic-ers,
Mendel moved that two sep-arate
elections be held for the
two council vacancies. This was
passed by a 7 to 6 count as “Sug”
Otte voted with the “independ-ents.”
This, according to several
council members, “was a political
promise on Sug’s part which she
kept.”
Organized Blunder
Mendel nominated Lussky. Miss
Hall nominated Clure Mosher and
Miss Gleason named Adele Over-street.
With the “organized” votes
being split between their two can-didates,
Lussky was elected. Care-ful
not to repeat their blunder, the
“organized” elected Adele Over-street
to the second vacancy over
Mary Walton Harris.
With every seat in the fifteen
member council now occupied,
the Organized faction now out-ranks
the Independent group by
8 to 7.
After the meeting. Tennenbaum
said to the press: “We of the mi-nority
intend to do our utmost to
see that minority rights are not
violated by dictatorial tactics
from the chair.”
Forensics Meet
Scheduled for 12:45 o’clock
Monday in Room 102 is this
semester’s first meeting of the
University Forensic League. It
was organized last May.
The varsity debate team will
receive its personnel from the ac-tive
and associate members of the
League and tryouts will be held
in the near future with faculty
members as judges. The question
of conscription has been chosen
as this year’s topic for debate.
Registrar Predicts
Tab Of 4,500,
All-Time Record
U. of L. registration spurted to
show 176 more students registered
after the first week of classes than
at the same time last year. Enroll-ment
has already reached 3,427,
and Ralph Hill, registrar, pre-dicted
it will go to 4.500, anew
all-time high.
Liberal Arts day school showed
the only decrease in the Univer-sity,
and this was attributed by
President Kent to the current
availability of jobs for young
people.
The School of Music, with 147
students already enrolled com-pared
with 76 last September, evi-denced
the greatest day school
increase. Dean Dwight Anderson
anticipates a final enrollment of
over 200.
D. A. E. Largest
The Division of Adult Educa-tion
again ran away with the dis-tinction
of being the largest
section of the University as was
evidenced by its student body of
1.193. This revealed an increase of
216 over last year. Director Fred-erick
Stamm indicated the div-ision's
all-time record of 1,250
would be surpassed by over 100.
Louisville Municipal College for
Negroes, a division of the Univer-sity,
reports an enrollment of 148
day students, four more than
signed up last year.
Schools of dentistry, medicine,
law. and engineering have a com-bined
day-time attendance of 874,
an increase of approximately
thirty over the previous year.
Even more impressive were the
197 adult engineering night school
registrations as compared with
only thirty-four last year.
