PROFESSOR IS
To TAKE TO
POLITICS

This is the open season for coli
Observation-Disclosures. and ev-
erybody with Prof" prefix can
jump right in and run for some
office or other. And that isn't say
ing that the prof-in-politics won't
do politics deal of good; he
couldn't make 1t any worse,
goodness knows.
Next to the big prof. who is go
ing to lead the demmies to VIC
tory or somewhere, the best little
prof. -in-politics abides up in Min
nesota, where he has a bunch of
machine politicians digging cy-
clone cellars.
At the University of Minnesota,
Prof. Charles M. Andrist teaches
the young sprouts French and po-
litical science. At other times he
tells their fathers and mothers
what's what In their government
and who's who in politics.
Last spring he decided to run
for governor in the democratic
ticket. The machine proffered its
support; the French prof. gently
but ever so firmly avised them to
beat it" with their support.
What he wanted was the sup
port of the plain. everyday farmer
and city workingman. And he
went out in the highways and by
ways of the state and got 1t. Now
1t looks like he'll get the nominal
tion and stand fair chance of
being the next governor.
Andrist is the Northwest's best
exception to the rule that "a jack
of all trades is a master OF none. -
He was born In little log cabin
in southern Minnesota 4 years
ago. Since then he has been farm
err, grocery clerk. livery stable
helper, janitor. country school
teacher. travelling salesman. Paris
business manager for the Har-
vester. trust, and few other
things. "any of which could have
made my living at" the prof. ex-
