A. u. STUDENT POLL
GOES FOR LANDON
6. 0. P. Nominee Gets 100 Votes !;
Roosevelt, 96-Less Than
Half Vote.

Gov. ALI NJ. Landon is the favorite
presidential candidate of students at
the College of Liberal Arts Of Ameri-
can University. This was disclosed in
the ballot taken yesterday afternoon
at student assembly following spirited
debate.
The vote, which included something
less than half of the college student
body, showed 100 for Landon, So for
Roosevelt, II for a third party and
eight undecided.
At the conclusion OF the debate,
eight were still just as much unde-
cided, while SO expressed themselves
more firmly in favor of Landon" and
70 more firmly In favor of Roose-
welt" Apparently none had changed
from one candidate to another. Stu
dents of the Graduate School and OF
the School of Public Affairs did not
participate.
1t was not only a spirited discussion
but noisy one, as student cheers, ap-
plause, Kisses and the booming of the
big bass drum of the orchestra broke
forth from time to time in approval
or disapproval. Pictures of the candi-
dates were literally displayed.
Presiding at the session was Sidney
Sachs, president Of the Student Coun-
Gil. Opening discussion was by Charles
Stewart, speaking in favor of Landon,
wearing huge sunflower in his lapel.
and Odell Rosen, championing Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
Quick repartee and collegiate wise
cracks marked the session, but the
real issues Of the campaign came in
for sound trouncing from both sides.

ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE. Va.
October 30.-Following his plea of
not guilty to a perjury charge in
Circuit Court yesterday, Bernard
Levy, 20, secretary and manager of the
Hangar Club, was to be tried by
jury today on another charge-vio-
lating the Virginia alcoholic beverage
t control act.
The perjury case against Levy was
continued to the November term OF
cS,lrt after Judge Walter T. Mccarthy
Ioverruled q demurrer brought against
the perjury indictment by Frank L.
Ball, attorney for Levy, on the con-
tention that a deputy clerk Is not
! entitled to administer an oath.
Levy's indictment for perjury
charges that he gave false testimony
in regard to his interest in sale OF
liquor at the club during hearing
on the liquor law violation charge
before Substitute Trial Justice Clar-
ence r. Ahalt on June 80 in County
Court. He had been sworn In by
MISS MdTBueIlIe " bilcA, ASP"S
clerk Of the court.
In overruling the demurrer. Judge
Mccarthy held the indictment valid
because it includes the essential fact
that Levy took an oath before the
court" The status of the court ofhcer
who receives an oath Is irrelevant, he
held.
p
Levy is at liberty under a $1,000
bond on the perjury charge.
Today he is appealing a 5000 fine,
imposed in County Court July 80. on
the liquor law violation charge. Levy
and six walters at the club were ar
rested last June Is as the result OF
police raid. The manager was spe-
officially charged with maintaining
common nuisance in violation OF sec
ton SIS of the State A. B. c. act.
Under an injunction issued by Judge
Mccarthy on June II and through re-
fusal of the State A. B. C. Board to
grant the club a new license, 1t has
not been able to sell beer or wine since
June.
