Jimmy Walker drank too much, played too much, loved too much,and spent too little time on his job as mayor of the world's largestcity, but New Yorkers loved him as they loved no other man. BeauJames is the story of a boy who loved the bright lights and longed

to be a song writer, yet who as-sumed the role of a politician tosatisfy a father's thwarted desires.It is the story of the man whomNew York wore in its buttonholein the twenties, and discarded adecade later when the glitteringtwenties were through.It isastoryboth gay and tragic.

William Walker, Jim's father,had suffered financial and politicalreverses,and "felt that a cloud hadbeen put onhis name. Jim wantedto clear away that cloud by round-ing out his father's dreams."Walker always held his father indeepest affection; he took everypossible opportunity to introducethe elder man's name into a speechwhich occasioned the frequentcomment thatJimmy was "runninghis dead father for mayor again."He learned too latethat noone canlive the life of another.

Walker was brilliant althoughsomewhat erratic asa trial lawyerand a state senator; as mayor,helacked application to the arduousjob, and remarked that he wasjust playing a part. He belongedheart andsoul to theshow businessand planned to leave politics afterthe conclusion of his first term asmayor. A position in Hollywoodwas offered to him by AdolphZukor, but with little hope forWalker's acceptance. "Shortly be-fore your term ends," hepredicted,"a whisper will start that JimmyWalker isn't going to run again.The whisper will grow into achorus, but you will pay no atten-tion to it. Then another whisperwill start, 'Jimmy Walker is afraidto run, afraid that he will not bere-elected.' This will grow to aroar, and you will hear that, too... Then you, being an Irishman,will get mad, and run and be re-elected." Zukor wasright.

Walker suffered from the delu-sion that theprivate life ofa publicfigure can remain private. Hischronic tardiness, sparkling nightlife, and flamboyant love affairsalienated him from his party lead-ers, who wished for serious ambi-tion in their candidate; but hispersonal charm endeared him tothepeopleofhis city,NewYork.

An editorial in the NEW YORKTIMES summed up Walker's ca-reer shortly before his re-election."What has been lacking ... hasbeen the steady applicationof un-common abilities to the uncom-monly complicated and arduouswork of the office. The city hasstood by and seen,as itwere,greatpowers going to waste...Every-body who knows Mr. Walker wellis confident that he has in him themakings of a remarkable chiefmagistrate of this city. The mayorthat he has been gives only ahintof the mayor that he might be."

Walker's indolence led to hisdownfall; he had neglected cer-tain reformations in the cityadministration; investigations werelaunched; he resigned. The peoplewere there to cheer when Jimmyreturnedfroman extendedtour ofEurope, impoverished and some-what disgraced.

"I'm only one of the neighbor'schildren," was a favoritephraseofWalker's. "Sometimes," his affec-tionate biographer declares, "hewould say it with a happy intona-tion, to describe a man who hadrisen from obscurity but hadman-aged to remain untouched byvanity. Or he would say it withsad emphasis, as if to invite pityand understanding when some un-fortunate man fell from a publicpedestal."

letters toeditorTo the Editor:

Seattle University has no doubt,in its history,graduated somebril-liant and scholarly young menandwomen.Undoubtedly,among theseabnormalgeniuses, one or twomayhave reigned as editor of the S.U.SPECTATOR. Under the presentadministration, I can easily seewhy the editor is included in themajority of her colleagues.

Anyone can readily understandthat Iam not hot-headed, frus-trated,bashful, do notbitemy toe-nails, or play with yo-yo's. Iamvery even-tempered until sometalented and famous personalitynoted for infallibility becomes in-efficient and commits unforgivableerrors.

Recently in your paper, myfirst name was misspelled withone "n". This somewhat exas-perated me, for a Who's Whoand a Personnel Card are avail-able for reference at any timeby an interested party. Withbated breath, Ibitanother toe-nail and continued, undaunted,onward.A recently acquired duty which

has added a great deal of enjoy-ment to my spare time is writinga weekly article on intramuralfootball. As in any newspaper cor-respondence, a reporter does notexpect a by-line every time, be-cause ordinarily he doesn't knowwhether he's coming or going.Time is of no consequence what-soever to me, but whenan articlewritten by your reporter is re-placed by a feminine name, it israther an extremely embarassingsituation. Isincerely hope thatfuture mishaps of this nature willnot occur again, or otherwiseIwill be compelled to take the caseto Dr. Anthony.

Yours always (well, for thisyear,anyway),

our halls of ivy" GENE JOHNSTONItwas the day before classes began,but evennow the activity and

camaraderie of a group of Lapland exchange students, tastefullydressed in expensivelaprobes, wellnigh jostled me from the curb.

Assuming an air of bored nonchalance,Ipushed my cowlickrakishly over one eye and sauntered across the campus to theother end of the sidewalk.

"First thing to do is join a happy group of returning studentsand exchange pleasantries and reminiscences, all the while callingeach other by friendly and clever knicknames," Ithought, althoughthe only knicknameIhad ever had was that of "Stupid," by whichMother knew me.

Looking around for such a gathering and seeing only two seniorsassuring each other that their hair was really growing in, Iauto-matically sidled toward the bulletin board, where Ihad spent so muchtime during my Frosh year staring at the volleyball standings andtrying to remember my Emily Post correspondence course.

About-facing smartly, Imade contact with the well-upholsteredelbowof, Lo! CampusMcGunn, last year's "SmoothestDog and LargestCog," an honor annually awarded to the freshman most likely to beseen everywhere except class.

"Hi, Campus," Isaid, my voice cracking with excitement."Oh yes' howare you, sport?" he inquired, studying my expensive

looking tartan jacket mother had made from old catalogue covers."I'm swell, Campys. Gee, isn't it grand to be .. ."Istarted."Yes, well, see you around, Hugo," he interrupted, watching a

lady engineer check the accuracy of the hall clock with a platinumslide-rule.

"How's your girl, Smooth-Dog?"Iventured, clutching his sleeve.Instantly his brows shot up, revealing a small area of eyelash he hadforgotten to peroxide. "Which girl, Ed?" he said, smiling happily."That gorgeous blonde, Magda de Frapp!" Ihastened, allowing mybreath to come harder, "And my name is Ferdy

—remember?"

"I'll tell you, George," he mused, staring vacantly about,"she couldn't stand sharing me with the duties and engagementsbefitting a manof my stature. The poor kid ran off with the fifeplayer in a Fourth of' July pageant. See you, Sam."

"Wait, Campus," Icried, "are you running for office again thisyear?" Instantly he had my right hand in a practiced grip and wastalking rapidly into my face: "...running for office, Ferdy. Why, boy,with me in there, Ferdy, you'll see some real action! Fun with Mc-

Gunn in '51— that's the word. See you, Ferd-buddy!" He hurriedaway,loudly helloing his constituents.

When Miss Virgie Joiner shrieked my name a moment later, Iknew this was too much. First Campus and now Virgie Joiner, famedclub member, bothreal college luminaries. Iwas overcomewithner-vousness;Imust appear debonair, poised, suave, sophisticated...

"Hi, Virgie,"Isaid, showing a brilliant choice of words. Ibackedagainst a wall, twitching nervously. Virgie appeared not to notice.She was telling me about a new club she had just joined, and leeringcrookedly at a contingent of athletes from Central America who werebeing herded to the gym.

"What does the club do, Virgie, ma'am?"Iasked."Do, schmoo," she said, "we talk andplan dances,and initiate

members, andnowIbelong to sevendifferentclubs, one for every

night. Say,what's wrong with you,jerk? You having a fit?"Iwrithedunder her concern. "But, Virgie, when do you study?""Study, schmuddy, who studies? What is wrong with you, any-

way— you're coming apart!" she howled.With a great effortIcontrolled myself. "You mean you don't

have any classes again this year, Virgie?""That has nothing to do with it .. ." the staccato blast of a horn

interruptedher and she dashedfor the street, with mehurrying after."Virgie, wait,"Icried, summoning my courage. "Will you go to the

Audubon Society meeting with me?" As Igained the door, she wasjust vaulting into a handsome Stutz Bearcat convertible with .. .Oh, no! My new friend, Campus McGunn, at the controls!

"Get outta the way,Mac,"snarledMcGunn, revving theengine

viciously.Istood in the purple cloud of their exhaust, wondering if there

was any new literature on the bulletinboard.

fashions for all" ELLEN O'KEEFES.U.s Frederick & Nelson College

Fashion Board RepresentativeLooks like the men don'thave to worry about fashion (of course

everyone looks good in navy or khaki), but the womenare still stuckwith the problem of what to wear.... However, with such excitingnew styles the problem is prettj well in hand.

Absence makes the heart growfonder— and such is the case ofthe tartan story. In the past fewyears the scarcity of plaids wasdominant. This fall brought acompletely new selection of tar-tans on the market. We findplaidsused in everything from shoes tohats. Just in caseyou have a clanplaid,now is the time to look yourbest in family glory.* * *"

Girls, if you want to look likea fashionshow don't forget to havea couple of shirts on hand. Theshirt look is not only economicalbut a wonderful separate to gowithanything inyourschool ward-robe. They can be dressed up ordown witha smart pin or a color-ful scarf. Speaking of separates,Imust include the weskit for thatsmarter look. Weskits are won-derful for thatneededchange froma plain sweater or blouse. Theyare done in matching plaids orbright contrasting colors.* * *

The biggest problem in the se-lection of a wardrobe is the oneof having clothes that canbe wornstrictly for casual and date wearas well. The solution to such aproblem is this— have several woolor rayon dresses that will lendthemselves to that after-five look.Here again we can have an all-important jumper giving the ap-pearance of a dress but withmanyconvertible features. The ensem-ble will take us anywhere. Big,shadowy checks in pastelcolor andsolid, rich jewel tones steal theshow in dresses.* * "

The coat situationis one of per-sonal taste. Anything from thecape collar to no collar, flair-backto straightback,beltedorunbelted,are all high points of fashion inthe coat this fall. They are donein exciting plaidswith velvet trim,gabardine with mouton," broad-cloth, and wonderfulsalt-and-pep-per tweeds. Just let the coat fitthe personality.....

These are just a few notes onwhat you might be wearing thisfall, in and out of the classroom.

Fifth Man ThemeStill in Question

By BILLMcGREEVYIf the race-horse tactics of this

year's varsity basketball five con-tinue, there soon may be pari-mutuelbetting going on in the SUgym.

Considering that the practiceseason has just begun, the crewseems to be in very good shapewithexemplary playingby suchasthe O'Brien twins, who figure tostartat the guard slots,andHiglin,a six-foot-six junior, who excelsat a one-hand push shot from theoutside and a hook from within.

Speidel's deadly two-hand jumpshot will be a decisive factor inmany of the contests. He handlesone forward position. The otherforward spot is a toss-up betweenWhittles, HedequistandHolden.Itwill be ahard job for Al Bright-man to pick the starter.

The outstanding player, in thisreporter's opinion,is Bob Miller;amember of last year's Papooses.

The passing and ball handlinghas been poor.These faults areex-tremely serious and caneasily con-tribute to a bad season. But thesquad's scoring accuracy is wellahead of the season.

pulledthe practice togs out of hid-ing, shook the mothballs off andhanded them one by one to thereturning lettermenand other can-didates. It seemed like a reunionat Memorial Gymnasium. Most ofthe faces he handed togs to werefamiliar

— till he had to cock hishead a little higher to see whothis guy was, towering over him.

Trying to sweep his eyes overthe bespectacled bulk once with-out embarrassment, Yunker musthave thought, "Whore you, bigboy?" The bulk broke the ice,"I am waiting."

But there's work so Yunkerforgot about the boy for awhile.Later he thumbed through thesubmitted data to find: "LesWhittles, 64",195. Junior, trans-ferred from IJ.W. Graduatedfrom Lincoln High. Two-yearletterman in baseball and bas-ketball. All-City in '48. Enrolledat U.W. on an athletic scholar-ship. Flayed in the NorthwestLeague with Buchan's Bakery."As scrimmage got under way,

Yunker watched Les grab re-bounds. "Lookslikehe can controlthe backboards. His ball handlingisn't spectacular but he's got someexperience. He looks good. He'sbig and strong. Butlet's see whathe can do as the season gets underway."
