Sen. Estes Kefauver f Ten
nessee seems to hold the spot
light in the Democratic party at
the present time. He has been a
consistent winner in the various
state preferential primaries over
the nation, and he is currently
holding a narrow but substan

his nearest contender, in the
battle for delegates at the na

Hypnosis For Cramming
If you want to cram for an
exam, you should do it unaer
hypnosis.
At least that is what a physi
cian in Washington, D. C, says.
He claims he has found you can
cram "more quickly" while under
hypnosis.
A Boston doctor disagrees with
him however. Here is what he
has to say about studying:
"Don't try to stay awake by
drinking coffee or smoking. You
may keep physically awake, but
mentally you are numb.
"When you take a 'quick break,'
don't light a cigarette. Get into
the fresh air and clear your head.
"The absolute limit for studying
should be 2 a.m. After that the
outgo of knowledge possibly sur
passes the intake."
Prepared
A boy and girl were out driv
ing. They came to a quiet spot
on the country lane and the car
stopped.
"Out of gas." said the boy. The
girl carefully opened her purse
and pulled out a bottle.
"Wow!" exclaimed the boy,
"You've got a whole pint what
kind Is it?"
"Gasoline," replied the girl.
main contenders
The main darkhorses at this
point in the campaign are:
Gov. Adlai Stevenson of Illi
nois, whose backers are reported
to be considering drafting him
for the candidacy. He has re
peatedly announced that he will
not accept any political position
except that M'hich he now holds.
He will be the candidate for re
election to the Illinois govern -norship.
Sen. Richard Russell - of Geor
gia, who is nearly certain to draw
the great majority of Southern
delegates, although Sen. Kefauver
has already snatched a number of
these.
The Republican race, mean
while, continues to be a dog-eat-
dog battle between Sen. Robert A.
Taft of Ohio and the backers of
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower.
This battle will undoubtedly
increase in Intensity within the
next few weeks, when Gen. Eis
enhower begins to take an ac
tive part in his own campaign.
As yet, few of the American
people know exactly what poli
cies "Ike" stands for, since he
has been unable, as military

failed, miserably, in his cause.
There are, of course, a few un
mentioned partise and men who
call themselves political dark
horses, but in view of the present
American political situation, it
seems very unlikely .that they can
gain much public popularity.
With the latest developments, it
appears that the campaigns both
Democratic and Republican will
soon take on a new fervor, insure
ing a thoroughly exciting and en
joyable summer for all political
minded citizens.
