RUMOR SAYS HARVARD MEN COACHING HUEY IN ORATORY

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Two members of the University who spend much of their time in Washington have taken it upon themselves, it is thought, to instill in Huey P. Long the rudiments of "Harvard culture." Apparently seeing in the powerful and outspoken Senator from Louisiana a diamond in the rough, the gentlemen from Cambridge intend to polish him.

The virile Kingfish denies that anyone has tried to smooth his grammar, curb his gestures, or check his vehemence. Despite this, it is a self-evident fact that Huey hasn't called anyone a dammed fool or an unprincipled liar for almost a week.

Perhaps the little yellow slips passed by the Harvard men to the Senator in the Chamber have had something to do with the metamorphosis. One slip cautioned, "Don't gesticulate so much." Another read, "Don't let your voice rise so high; don't be so vehement."
