at present constituted. Glen Alvine, a
K. U. man, now associated with Fa-
nous Players-Lasky, undertook poll
on the question of amending the Vol
stead act to admit light wines and
beer. He covered only one deck and
the vote was tie-33 to 33. Abe Cor
don made a personal canvass of the
voyagers to learn how many would
support him II he runs for governor
OF New York. He was promised the
votes of three persons, while % de-
clined to commit themselves.
Handsomest Man There.
L. T. Rostetler. a young banker late
CT Sabetha, where he was on speaking
terms with that widely known Kan
san, Ralph Tennai, was easily the
handsomest man on board. the girls
said Having just returned from
western trip, he was in great demand
as a. news source.
DR. and Mrs. ]. NJ. winslow of Kan
sas City. KAN, enjoyed the reunion i'm
rnensely. The doctor at one time was
superintendent of the Kansas City
schools. Miss Edith Snow, daughter
Of the former chancellor OF Kansas
university, was very much at home.
So were Mr.. and Mrs. David b. Lucky.
Mrs. Lucky was active in the well
come committee for returned soldiers
in 1919 and devoted most of her time
for months in the entertainment of
service men at the Kansas club. In
this she was associated with Miss
Helen Ostertag, of Atchison, Governor
Allen and others.
DR.. E. E. Slosson, literary editor of
the Independent, was only one or
number Of prominent men of the writ
ing profession who rlsKed walking the
plank.
Dropping personalities, the trip it.
self is worthy of special mention. The
Squantum dropped anchor at Glen
Island, where several great fires were
built and millions OF frankfurters: par
rels of coffee, hundred OF thousands
of buns-seemingly-to OF sand
witches, reams of cheese. flocks of
doughnuts, etc, were crammed down
zoo eager Sunflower Threats: The
party later journeyed to another is
land where the light fantastic was
tripped.
Serious Accident Averted.
One accident would have married
the festivities had it been serious. The
gangway to the launch which was to
take the party from Glen Island to
the mainland broke with about 20 per-
sons on it. Fortunately the crash In
jured no one, altho all went down IN
heap on the rocks. After the scream
ing of several women had been neu-
traiized and the noses counted and
bruises rubbed, it was learned that
not so much as a broken rib had been
sustained. The clothing was not as
fortunate as the bodies of the near
victims. Several pairs OF trousers
were ripped and Georgette waists
torn.
New York is composed largely of
