Derso and Kelen Portray Prominent Hoosiers in New York.
Kelen, intérhational {league of
Nations” caricaturists, caught Frankie Masters in a professionally gay mood and Bo McMillin in’ a professionally glum one at a weekend Indiana University Alumni dinner here. They caught Wendell Willkie, t toastmaster, with a mysterious halfsmile. Maybe he knew that there were some in the audience saying, “What a. great Republican candidate for the Presidency Mr. Willkie would make—from Indiana!” Mr, Willkie baffled such gossipers even more; he read a telegram .from Homer Capehart, for whom some Indiana Republicans already have started a boom. . Other caricatures caught by Derso and Kelen included George (Dixie) Heighway, Indiana Alumni Association president, and George Wellbaum, & past president of the Sons of Indiana of New York .which joined the I. U. alumni in the Friday night banquet. Coach McMillin, who had brought the first Indiana University football team to New York City to suffer defeat by the. Fordham Rams, was spotlighted at the banquet. Sports writers like Grantland- Rice and Frank Graham of the New York
