AS ELECTION NEARS
Factions Naming Prospects
With Filing Deadline
Set for Friday.
The murky clouds of political
verbiage again darken the atmos
phere as campus factions complete
their slates for the approaching
spring election.
With the filing deadline set for
next friday, leaciers oi com Tac
tions have been busily engaged in
linine- un their Trftsrective choices
who, if elected, will carry on the
otnciai business ot me smuem
body for another year.
Beliefs expressed yesterday indi
cate that the political lineup on
the campus will remain unchanged
from last fall, when the Yellow
Jacket-Barb coalition wrested the
class offices of the junior and sen
ior classes, from the long reign
of the Blue Shirts.
Both Factions Meet.
While it is generally known that
both factions have met and dis
cussed the coming election during
the past few weeks, no definite ac
tion has been taken by either with
regard to the ticket which they
will file this Friday.
Present indications point to the
fni-t that the comine contest will
nrove to be a much closer contest
than last spring, wnen me lt-uuw
Jacket-Barb faction swept into the
majority of the campus political
plums, their candidates for office.
Following the ruling set last fall
v tho ctt.Ddent council the elections
will be supervised by members of
that body, ine pian as uu i
that time proved to be successful
and from all indications will be
used again.
Control of Council.
The prize of the spring election
lies in the direction of faction con
trol of the student council. Filings
for the student governing board
include: Four seniors at large; four
from the College of Arts and Sci
ence; four from Teachers College;
two from Engineering; two from
Business Administration; two from
Fine Arts; two from Agriculture,
and one each from Dental, Grad
uate, Pharmacy, and Law Colleges.
Student representation on the
publication board includes one rep
resentative from the senior, junior,
and sophomore classes.
In the heated and spirited elec
tion last spring the Yellow Jacket
Barb faction managed to gain
seven of the student council seats,
in addition to winning two of the
three publications board seats. The
election was especially significant
in view of the fact that for three
years the Blue Shirts had monop
olized campus elections.
As to this year's outcome of the
election, judging from the interest
displayed by both parties, voting
should be the heaviest cast in some
time.
