Kate L. Cowick, principal of Long
fellow School on the Kansas side,
yesterday threw her hat in the politi-
cal ring by announcing herself candi-
date for the Democratic nomination
of county treasurer of Wyandotte
county.
81 am going to make So vigorous
and aggressive a campaign that the
opponents who contest my candidacy
certainly can't take the word
samateurish' to do it, Miss Cowick
said smiling. 81 expect to have OPP
position. In fact 1 am almost certain
that~three men will enter the race.
But l am absolutely convinced that
l will win.''

ing to be any pink tea affair. She is
fully capable of taking care of her
self in a mental combat and she is 5
feet inches tall, weight 10 pounds
and is only 20 years old.
Il don't mean to be rude in asking
for support" Miss Cowick explains.
''But l am going to shake hands
with every man and woman ] can
y
next August, and l expect to see the
majority of voters, and / am going to
ask all of their support. And l am
going to talk to Progressives and
Republicans as we'll as Democrats.
If they can't vote for me in
the primary they can vote for me in
November if 1 am nominated"
Miss Cowick is native Kansan.
Her father, S. r. CowIck, with whom
she lives at 733 Stewart Avenue, Kan
sas side, back twenty years ago was a
well known politician in the short
grass country and served as probate
judge and county attorney of Trego
