  • Not "The Thinker," but Kirke Mechem, Tennis Umpire and Som.Etimc Author and Historian
    r J­e :/ Not "The Thinker," but Kirke Mechem, tennis umpire and som.etimc author and historian. This recent pholograph of 1Hr. Mecbem belies a fairly general belief that the s(;holar is out of toueh with thing's oJ the world. He're he is shown calling shots at a, !.ennis tournament in Topeka. He formerly p-layed, and two of his sons gained eminenee in Kansas and Missouri Valley play, kirke mechem THE KANSAS HISTORICAL QUARTERLY Volume XVII November, 1949 Number 4 "Home on the Range" KIRKE MECHEM The night Franklin D. Roosevelt was first elected president a group of reporters sang "Home on the Range" on his doorstep in New York City. He asked them to repeat it, and made the statement, so it was said, that it was his favorite song. Later he often listened to the ballad at the White House, and it was reported that at Warm Springs he frequently led his guests in singing it. Stories of the President's approval soon made "Home on the Range" one of the country's hit songs. By 1934 it had moved to the top on the ra­ dio, where it stayed for six months. Everybody sang it, from Lawrence Tibbett to the smallest entertainer. Radio chains, motion picture com­ panies, phonograph record concerns and music publishers had a field day -all free of royalties, for there was no copyright and the author was un­ known. At its peak the song was literally sung around the world. Writing from Bucharest, William L. White, son of William Allen White of Kansas, said: They all know American songs, which is pleasant if you are tired of wars and little neutral capitals, and are just possibly homesick.
