SEE POSSIBILITY
OF TURNOVER IN
CAMPUS POLITICS
(Continued from Page 1.)
not in bringing even a small part
of these men to the polls the elu
sive fraternity interest in campus
politics will have every reason to
be awakened. The barbs will be in
a position to obtain a good repre
sentation, If only under the pro
portional system, on the Student
council and they may be able to
place some men on the publications
board or In class offices.
It Is doubtful whether the barbs
will have time to effect formidable
organisation before the coming
spring elections. Time is too short.
But if they take advantage of their
opportunities they will certainly be
in a position to stir things up next
year. In fact the Greeks may find
that they have created a "Frank
enstein" which will rise to crush
them politically. But all this, of
course, will only serve to make
things more Interesting and that is
what the campus has been waiting
for these last three years. Even at
the cost of some election posts the
fraternity students would undoubt
edly like to see some of the tradi
tional "helifire and brimstone" at
the polls.
