the best politicians yin? They will anyway. There is always a lot of talk about Prom Queen being a girl who should be representative of all the girls on the campus but does it always turn out that way? Yes, once in a while the right girl wins out but that's because her campaign managers have been the best in the political line. Imagine an election in which everyone voted as he or she thought. Be that as it may the Prom is the thing and whoever is elected to lead the grand march with Mr. Hoover will be discussed pro and con until the time for the next queen to be chosen.
POLITICS Now is the time for all good politicians to come to the fore and take a hand in the destinies of the spring elections. There are two elections on the campus so far which have been practically de- void of politics in a sense, W.A.A. and Y.W.C.A. But as for the rest . . . . Illinois has a system which might be good to adopt here. There they have political organizations and the campaigns are conducted after the manner of state and national politics. At Purdue there are two factions, the East side and the West. The tickets are never divided. If one person is strong he carries the rest of his faction with him and that's that. One big politician in the limelight now is alleged to have said that he learned his politics on the Indiana University campus when he was in school here. Too often elections are turned and controlled to the detriment of the campus. A solution for all time will have to be found and that soon, from what we hear.

An angry howl broke forth from the rabble as Lady Godiva came into view. Women gasped, turned pale, blushed, and scurried indoors. Finally, an officer rushed out into the street and laid hold of the horse's bridle. "See here, Lady," the officer gulped, "You can't get away with this!" "Get away with what, Bo?" demanded Lady Godiva, coyly. Oh, so you paint? "You know very well what I mean, Madam," Yes, but I don't make scenes. rumbled the Constable, fiercely..

LAST MONTH'S RECORDINGS
There's a bit of local news for the column this month. The men's Glee club have recorded "Alma Mater" and "Indiana" for a recording company in Richmond. This same company has recorded an arrangement of "The Asra," by Rubenstein, by the music school. Turning to this month's recordings in Victor and Brunswick, I find that variety is the keynote of the month. The high spot is a 12 inch record All Sorts of Compacts of "Yours With My Heart Alone" and "Just a Gigolo," played by Jack Hylton and his orchestra. Perfumes and Candy This orchestra is English but their symphonic jazz comes close to Paul Whiteman. It's a good change from the usual run of arrangements. Last month's most popular record was Bert Varsity Pharmacy Lown's recording of "By My Side and "I'm So 110 South Indiana Afraid of You." Both have that prominent Lown PHONE 5018 characteristic of the steady beat underneath the "A cut-rate drug store" syncopation. The rythm was made for dancing. Snooks and his Memphis Stompers have the hot EMENEMEN EMENEMENEMENENEHENEMENEMENSEEN record this month in "Hello, Beautiful" and "Wha'd Ja Do to Me?" The vocal is sung by a trio that is plenty good. The Troubadours have a new record out now of "With All My Heart" and "You Didn't Have to Tell Me." McKinney's Cotton Pickers have record- "Get That ed "It's a Lonesome Old Town" and "She's My Snapshot-- Secret Passion" for Victor. With Your Duke Ellington again comes forth with two new Kodak" records. They're "Keep a Song in Your Soul" and "The River and Me" on one and "Shout 'Em Aunt Tillie" and I'm So in Love With You." Even in a song like "The River and Me" that sense of the Ellington animation is felt. Julia' Sanderson and Frank Crumit, musical comedy stars, sing "Would You Like to Take a All Aids To Beauty For Walk" from "Sweet and Low" for Victor. "It Must BeTrue" has been recorded by Gus Arnheim. The Prom The other side might be called "The Worm Song" but its title stands as "Fool Me Some More." "Red" Nichols and his Big Ten are playing Wiles Drug Co. "Corrine, Corrina" for Brunswick this month. "THE KODAK STORE" The vocal is sung by the same man who sang "Linda." Tom Geron, who you hear over radio East Side Square from Chicago has a recording for Brunswick of "Maybe I'm in Love With a Dream" and "I'm Our Advertisers are Selected Merchants April, 1931 THE BORED WALK Page 25 Apii 91lliOR D WA KPae2 Happy When You're Happy." It's good but not so good as some of the others on this month's list.
