Straw Vote Elects Hoover
Saturday, November 3, a straw
vote was taken at the movies after
two very inspiring speeches had been
given. One by Senator Mark, of
Iowa, and the other by Senator
Wheeler, of New York, the former
representing Herbert Hoover and
the latter representing Alfred Smith.
When the votes were counted it was
found that Hoover swept the campus
with a plurality of 106 over Smith.
The national election is also over,
and we all know that Hoover won a
decisive victory. Whether this gentleman
from the west represents
your politics or not, send up your
prayer for him; turn to your duties
of citizenship again and let us all
settle down to that normal, unharassed,
happy sort of life that we so
cherish in America. The voters have
elected a President, they did not
choose a King.
Mr. Hoover's position during the
war was that of food administrator.
No doubt there are other men who
could have handled that great responsibility.
but there are few men
who could have done it as well. We
must remember that Hoover's department
was the only department that
was not corrupted with graft and
poor management. We must also
realize the way in which he handled
the Mississippi flood situation. He
took charge of the whole affair and
relieved and helped the sufferers of
one of the worst catastrophies that
this country has ever experienced
within her own shores. He did it
as quickly and probably more quickly
than any other man could have
done it, simply because of his previous
experiences in critical moments.
We must remember that when the
next election comes we will all be
voters, but we must also remember
not to vote the Republican ticket simply
because we are Republicans, nor
the Democratic ticket just because
we are Democrats, but to vote for
the man who stands for the highest
ideals. May his past history be a
torch of light which will lead him to
the highest office of honor that the
American people can bestow on one
of her native sons.
KISKI NEWB
When it comes to voting, let your
conscience be your guide, but do not
neglect to vote.

KISKI RIFLE CLUB
The Kiski Rifle Club elected the
following officers:
,Stineman-President.
Dunbar-Vice President.
Yost-Second Vice President.
Hudson--,Secretary.
Zinkand-Assistant Secretary.
Hudson-Capt. of the team.
Already forty-five members have
been affiliated with the organization.
We are told that there is some very
promising material among the new
men.
From last year's outfit remain:
Zinkand, Clawson, Stineman and
Capt. Hudson. From the novice team
are Yost, Johnson and Dunbar ..
Hall League Football
After much delay the lowly hall
leaguers started to function. So f.ar
theer has been only two games played.
Paradise easily dethroned Wilson,
last year's medalists, by the
score of 20-0. Bowery subdued Gym,
Reese, etc. by the score of 13-6.
It looks, judging from games to
date, that Bowery is due to walk off
with the title this season, although
there are several other halls who are
willing to dispute the question with
her.
Varsity Loses To Pitt
Kiski suffered its first gridiron setback
at the hands of the Pitt Frosh
by the tally of 26-6. The defeat was
due in no wise to the Jack of vocal
support from the side lines.
The student body met at Main and
marched ensemble to the field. Neither
the morale nor the vocal organs of
the grandstand seemed greatly damaged
by the persistent drizzle that
lasted the entire game.
The two teams appeared to be
about evenly matched during the !first
half but the yearlings played much
better game during the last half.
Kiski recovered a fumble with a
fifteen yard Jine and scored with a
triple pass to Abbott in the first minutes
of the second ,quarter. The trial
for extra point was unsuccessful.
Then the Panthers started to strut
their stuff. McDowell ,broke loose
forty yards to the twelve yardline and
Murphy ushered the ball over the
final line. As the game progressed
the Cubs seemed to gain momentum.
Although the Kiskians blanked the
opponents attempts to score in the
third quarter of the game was a
losing one.
In the final period the Freshman
steam roller gathered a full head of
steam. From the Kiski 'fifteen yard
line Daugherty, of last year's Kiski
team, tossed the oval to Murphy who
downed the ball on the ulterior side
of the goal line.
Intercepting a Kiski ,pass in midfield
Murphy again rushed the goal
line for Pitt's third score. Then a
pass from Johnson to Hoffman
brought about another six points for
Pitt's side of the score sheet in the
final minutes of play.

From East to West-Via
Panama-Continued
In these gardens, this zenith of
nature's beauty in the tropics, one
may refresh himself, and rest under
the cool shade of the towering palms;
but our time is very limited, and in
spite of our desire to linger, we must
force ourselves out into the boiling
Cuban sun.
We pas􀃻 down through the "Vedado",
the residential district of
Cuba's wealthy families. Here are
beautiful homes, surrounded by gardens
of charming beauty, homes
built seemingly without regard for
expenditure, and displaying beauty
of architecture unmatched by any
other city in the world.
Ou'r next point of interest is the
modern University of Havana, a
group of beautiful buildings situated
on a hill, overlooking the vast harbor
and far reaching gulf. Next we
visit an interesting cigar factory,
and see cigars made by hand, thousands
after thousands of them being
turned out to satisfy the constant demand.
Men and women, together,
employed at a very low wage, work
day after day in this great building
wrapping cigars.
We pass through the crowded business
district back to the pier, and
are hurried in our launch back to the
great boat riding peacefully at
anchor. Back on deck our attention
is called to several sunken boats to
be seen in the harbor, the result of
the great hulTicane.
A sharp command from the bridge!
The anchors are hauled up, the
mighty engines turn the screws-and
§lowly we move through the nalTow
harbor-gateway into the calm blue
waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Our
course is set south-west, along the
palm lined coast of Cuba. Late in
the afternoon the last glimpse of the
island is seen, as she disappears in
all her beauty below the horizon.
The sea remains calm and the
weather grows even warmer as we
near the Equator. Now and then we
see other boats, but more often the
peaceful blue waters are interrupted
in their tranquil sleep by a school of
porpoises leaping high out of the
water into the air. Flying fish skim
before us like birds winging on their
tireless way.
The morning of the third day from
Havana finds us entering Limon Bay,
a body of water enclosed by a sea
wall. Without stopping at either of
the eastern terminii of the canal,
Colon or Christobal, we proceed toward
the narrow entrance, passengers
eagerly waiting to see that great
project of man's engineering genius,
the Panama Canal. The harbor narrows
until it is a mere cut between
the hills, before we reach the Gatun
Locks, seven miles from the ocean.
We enter the west bound locks,
there being separate sets for east and
west bound traffic. Our boat is
stopped 'ti! the "electric mules", tiny
KISKI NEWS
electric cars running on tracks along
the cement walls of the locks are
hitched to her mighty hulk. These
cars pull and hold the boat during
her progress through the locks. Two
sets of massive steel gates are opened,
and our boat is slowly pulled into
the lock. The great gates close behind
us. The water churns as the
lock is 'filled from the bottom. The
,raters rise slowly. The boat begins
to be lifted. Higher, higher, until
, we are level with the walls which a
short time before had towered above
us. We are again pulled through a
set of gates, and yet again. In three
separate steps we have been lifted 85
feet, from the Atlantic sea level to
the level of Gatun Lake.
This picturesque lake, 164 miles
in area, was formed by impounding
the waters of the Chagres River by
means of the great dam at Gatun. In
the construction of this dam, contrary
to expectations, very little masonry
was used in proportion to its immense
size. It appears as a huge
mass of earth piled up across the
valley, joining the hills on either side,
and forming part of the jungled landccape.
The dam is 1 % miles in
length, and 105 feet high.
The spillway is located about midway
in the dam and is built through
a natur;il hill practically of solid
rock, through which a channel 300
feet wide was cut. This spillway is
capable of discharging 154,000 cubic
feet of water per second. On one
side is the hydro-electric plant, which
produces power to operate all the
machinery of the canal, run the Panama
railroad and light the entire
Canal Zone.
Passing in and out over a winding
course among the numerous islands
of Gatun Lake, the boat proceeds at
almost full speed over the distance of
23 miles. The channel here. varies
from 1,000 to 700 feet in width, but
as we approach the hills, narrows to
300 feet, and leads us into the famous
Culebra Cut. Almost vertically its
rocky sides tower above us, as we
sail on under slackened speed to the
end of the exc·avation, Pedro Miguel
Lock. This we enter on a level with
the lake. After the gates are closed
behind us, the water is drained from
the lock, and our boat is lowered 30
feet before another set of gates is
oneried to allow us to pass out into
Miraflores Lake. A small body of
water lying between the Pedro Miguel
and Miroflores Locks. In the
latter set, in two steps the boat is
lowered 55 feet to the sea level channel
on the Pacific side, whence we
make our way to the dock at the
Pacific terminus of the canal-Balboa.
We have traversed the 50 % miles
in about 10 hours Three hours of
this time has been spent within the
locks. A most interesting day, an education
in itself. But more interesting
sights lie awaiting us-for we
are going to visit the city of Panama,
capital of the Republic of the same
name.

Kiski Defeats
Strong Duquesne Team
Kiski met and defeated the powerful
Duquesne Freshman team, before
they knew what it was all about.
When they did come to, and tried to
do something, it was almost impossible
as Kiski was playing its regular
bang-up game, after Vuchinich went
over for the first touchdown.
With Vuchinich leading the attack
Kiski .appeared to have the strongest
and hardest hitting backfield this
ye􀃼r. Port and Petruzzi, the midget
pair, sure acquitted themselves well.
Abbott also comes in for his share
of good work.
Port, starting as a regular, after a
brief rest, sure looked like a big
leaguer. 'Twisting and twirling his
way through the Pittsburgher's line,
he made gain after gain and accounted
for two touchdowns.
The other midget, Petruzzi, just
couldn't be stopped either. Although
small, he looked and felt like a giant
when he hit the line. Kiski is depending
a lot on this sma!J fellow,
when we play Pitt.
The line, all in all, played a whale
of .a game. From end to end, one
could not pick an individual star.
They played as a team and therefore,
did the job right.
Because of the fear of injuries to
our regulars and the Pitt game only
a week away, Coach Mitinger again
gave the subs a chance to prove their
worth. They all did, including the
"Apple Knockers." Even against the
subs the Duquesne outfit just couldn't
get going and found that Kiski has
more than one football team.

Juniors Bow To
Greensburg Reserves, 12-6
The smallest edition of Kiski gridiron
outfits was put to rout by a
plucky reserve aggregation from
Greensburg.
Britain opened the game with .a
rush to the 10-yard line but the ball
was lost on a fumble. The Reserves
kicked. Tener returned the pigskin
to the 10-yard Jine where the process
was repeated, Kiski losing the ball
on a fumble and Greensburg kicking.
Marks blocked a punt midfield and
ran for Kiski's only touchdown, ending
the quarter. Tener featured the
half with sensational gains, both
through line and around end.
Early in the final quarter the
Greensburgers recovered their ow:n
kick and broke Jose for a touchdown.
Day received the kick-off, Greensburg
brought down another Junior aeriai
game and galloped to the near vicinity
of the goal Jine, ending the quarter.
The Greensburgers pierced the midget's
defense at short range and
opened the ,final period with another
touchdown. McMillen and Brittain
managed to advance to the Reserve's
40-yard line. Greensburg intercepted
a Kiski pass at that point and fumbled,
Kiski recovering. ·McMillen
gained twenty yards by means of a
pass. The Reserves pulled down another
one of the midget's passes and
the game ended. Lineup:

The Appleknockers further proved
their mettle in defeating the Leechburg
Olympics by the score of 14-6.
Although the plucky Leechbergers
fought gamely Coach Meyers' proteges
won mainly because of superior
training.
Lipinski made most of the yardage
for Kiski, scoring on an Olympian
fumble .around left end. Barberro,
on the opposition, featured the
entire game with healthy gains.
Pipinski carried the ball to the ten
yard line where the ball was lost on
downs. Then Daugherty blocked a
kick which paved the way for a
touchdown. Again, in the second
quarter, Barberro starred with two
first downs and a good kick, which ultimated
in a touchdown for Leechburg
when a Kiski kick was blocked.
The third quarter was very uninteresting
from the spectator's point of
view, neither team being able to
score. The most excitement of the
quarter occurring when Lipinski
brought ·an enemy pass.
The final period was more eventful.
The Leechburgers fought desperately,
shoving the Reserves back to the
eight yard line, although they could
not get hold of the ball. Once out
in neutral territory again the Kiskians
staged a neat offensive campaign.
Schaffer made twelve yards
around end, Lepinski twenty,· and
Forker ,about ten, ending the game
without scoring, however. The lineup:

Armistice Day was observed at Kiski
by a special chapel service on Sunday,
the 11th. The National flag, and
Kiski's beautiful service flag were appropriately
displayed, and a fine program
of music, readings and speaking
was followed by a drive for the
Red Cross. Mrs. Myers' solo "The
Americans Come," was especially enjoyed,
as were Mr. Myers' readings
and cornet solo. The Glee ,Club made
its initial appearance, and though it

Chi Sigma Chi
Tau chapter of Chi Sigma Chi fraternity
is extremely fortunate in having
eight men to start off on another
year. Headed by "Coddie" Gailus,
'l'au Chapter should have its best
year ahead of it . Those who are
helping "Coddie" to put Tau ahead
are as follows: St. Clair, Musser,
McKinnon, E. Marks, Dougherty,
Kunkle, Olds and Keck. We have
imported a boy from a Detroit Chapter
and we find him a true and loyal
"Chi Sig."
Largely due to the efforts of "Cod-
01e" we have eleven good men pledged.
They are: Gray, Mitchell, Miller,
Ott, Eckhard, Zelt, Seybold, Fift,
Bi-yant, Adams, and Paul.
We wish the other fraternities of
the school the same good fortune and
hope that there may be the same cooperation
and friendliness between
the different "frats" as there has
been in previous years,
A. I. E.
The Mu chaptei· of the Alpha Iota
Epsilon fraternity has gotten a way
to what we call a pretty good start,
Last year we achieved the honor of
having the highest scholastic standingof
any "frat" in school. Of course
we are going to work for that again
this year. There are six of last
year's men back this year, and we
ltope to have as successful a year as
we had last year. We also take this
opportunity to say that we wish the
best of luck and success to all of
the other fraternities represented

The Juniors succeeded in conquering
the Smethport eleven by the score
of 18-0. The field was very sloppy
and the spectators proportionately
sparse. Brittain and Tener featured,
making all three of the touchdowns·
and a good deal of ground.

William Stearns Davis
Writes Kiski Student
After reading and enjoying
"Gilman of Redford," I took the
liberty of writing to the autr.vr,
William Sterns Davis, who is, as
you know, a famous writer of historical
novels. Recently, I received
an answer to my letter. Thinking
it will be of interest to oth􀇖r
students, I contrilbute ex􀇗racts
from it.
Dear B1,uc·e:
Many, many thanks for your
most friendly letter about Gilman
·of Redford. Of course I am
delight€d. As Theodore Roosevelt
used to say, to learn that you
were interested. All [ can say
for the book is that in writing it I
used many of the legendary traditions
of my own family. "Redfor-
d" is of course !Bedford, Mass.,
!Stearns was a minister, out I
wanted to take a few liberties
with the local history and .;;10
changed the name, lest matter of
fact antiquarians scold me.
It was very great fun to write
the book and I ·put much personal
feeling into it, recalling what my
own forebears went through. Son:e
of the Harvard authorities helped
me to wo1,k up the reconstruction
of life at 'college in the 1'770's. I
hope this is historically correct,
whatever the literary merits.
I am no longer teaching, havil!g
devoted my whole time recently to
literary work, and it may intP1·est
you to know that I am working
out the plan of .a story albout the
1<'rench •Revolution, different, I
hope, from earlier tales by other
authors, but I fear I can do nothing
really to exec,ute it until next
year.
I remain yours very sincerely,
William Stearns Davis.
The boolk is one of special interest
to students of Amerir::;i.n
History. It is not entirely devoted
to historic facts, but is a novel of
interest and €xcitement. It tells
of events leading up to the Revolution,
'Of the bravery of young
Gilman, and of ·his love -affair.
The .background gives a fascinating
picture of family and social
life in colonial Massachusetts.
