"KING COLE" HAS TRAVELED WORLD FIVE TIMES, LEARNED 83 TONGUES

The "King of the Newsboys" yesterday added the Harvard CRIMSON to the list of over 11,000 newspapers that he has peddled during his forty years as a newsboy. He is Samuel H. Cole, who has traveled across the United States 41 times and is now on his fifth encirclement of the world. Burdened with two large bars containing souvenirs of his travels, 42,000 autographs of all the great personalities of the world, and sporting a ten gallon bat adorned with a Willkie button, he arrived here with his wife, "Queen" Cole.

An amazing talker, "King" Cole can discuss any subject like an expert although he has been to school only 19 months and 4 days in his life.

Self-educated Expert

"I've chiseled an education from colleges all over the world, including Oxford, and learned 83 different languages and dialects during my travels," the burley adventurer explained. "I hope to discuss law with Dean Landis and to preach a sermon in the Chapel before I leave."

King Cole makes his way by hitchhiking and has never had to pay a hotel bill, although he stops at the best, including the Waldorf-Astoria in New York. To cross the ocean, he has worked as a mess boy, steward, and cook. For his incidental expenses, the newsboy earns money peddling papers and writing feature articles about himself.

Youth is America's Hope

Cole, who was present in Munich during the famous negotiations between Daladier, Chamberlain, and Hitler, commented optimistically on the possibility of a Hitler invasion of the U. S.

"Hitler has a lot of representatives over here, but he's not coming over. He couldn't get to first base with all the strong young men I've seen in the Yard."

Cole cited the lives of Edison, Ford, A1 Smith, Woodrow Wilson, Harding, and now, Wendell Willkie, as example of former newsboys who have become successful, and pointed out that experience selling papers builds character in young boys. A great supporter of youth, the "King" claimed that the "boy is father of the man".

As mysteriously as he came, the "King of the Newsboys" disappeared to continue on his fifth world trip on which he hopes to visit Korea and Syria, the only two countries he has not yet seen.
