On Tho Social Side:
octal llh Slows Dovm
By JAN FARRELL
Society Editor
Thera is very little social news
this week. The start of a new se
mester always slows down cam
pus night-life because the students
are too busy getting acclimated to
Democrats
Predicted
I960 Victors
(ACP) Some people hold the
opinion it is President Eisenhower
as an individual who swept the
Republican party into administrat
ive office in the past two elections.
This belief, plus the fact that the
people have elected a Democratic
Senate and House in the last elec
tion, lead many individuals to the
point where they predict a Demo
cratic presidential victory in 1960.
Associated Collegiate Press at
tempting to get an idea of colle
giate opinion on this issue by ask
ing the following question of a rep
' resentative national cross-section
of college students:
Since President Eisenhower will
not be able to run for president in
1960, which party do you think
will win the 1960 presidential elec
tion? The results:
Men Women Total
Republican ...16 9 13
Democratic ..50 53 51
Undecided ...34 38 36
The figures indicate substan
tial support for the belief the
Democrats will win out, with cor
respondingly little support for the
Republicans. A very sizeable pro
portion of the students are still
undecided on the issue.
Students holding the opinion the
Democrats will win have two major
reasons for their belief. Many feel
the Republican party lacks leaders
with the appeal Eisenhower had;
many add that Nixon is not too
well-liked and could not win. And
many feel the Democratic trend of
Senate and House elections indi
cates a further Democratic boom.
Others feel the Democratic party
is the most popular party, or that
it has more young leaders, etc.
Here are several typical comments:
"Eisenhower won on personal
popularity and I don't think the
Republicans will be able to beat
some of the top Democrats like
Williams, Kefauver, etc.," is the
opinion of a sophomore attending
the Bernard Baruch School of Busi
ness, ,City College of New York.
"I dont think the Republicans have
another who can pull votes the way
Eisenhower did," is the way an
Ohio University (Athens) senior
puts it. And a University of Arkan
sas (Fayetteville) freshman coed
simply says: "The Republicans
don't have a good candidate." An
other freshman coed, but at Chris
tian College (Columbia, Mo.) has
this to say: "The overwhelming
majority of the Senate and House
in the 1956 election shows what will
happen." But a freshman attend
ing Jacksonville University (Jack
sonville, Florida looks at it this
way: "The Democratic party has
many up and coming leaders,
whereas the Republicans don't have
much left to follow Ike."
Students feeling the Republicans
will wia the presidential election
in 1960 have a variety of ideas
supporting their opinions. The fol
lowing remarks are representative
of most of these ideas:
"If prosperity continues for the
next four years, then the Republi
cans will win," is the belief of a
Lynchburg College (Lynchburg,
Va.) sophomore coed, while a fresh
man coed attending Oswego State
Teachers College (Oswego, N. Y.)
feels the "people have more faith
In the Republirm party." "An era
of goodwill has ben created with
in the country; the Republican ad
ministration will get credit for Sen
ate and House policies," is how a
junior at the Baruch School of Busi
ness looks at it.
A University of Nebraska senior
says: "The Republicans have been
gaining in popularity and the bal
ance of power will probably swing
completely to their side, barring
any unfo reteen developments."
While a Rochester Institute of Tech
nology junior coed states: "Their
candidates and campaigns are
cleaners and better qualified." And
a Yakima Valley Junior College
(Yakima, Wash.) freshman simply
says: "I'm sure they will find a
strong man."
Students undecided on this ques
tion can easily be lumped into one
group, well represented by -the
statement of a graduate student at
tending Villanova University (Vil
lanova, Pa.): "Neither candidate
of this year will run in 1960. It
depends on the candidates, the situ
ation in our country and abroad,
and on the job the parties do in
congress.'

Approximately $2500 was given to

25 per cent of AUF's total budget.

Funds contributed by student and

medical aid, maintenance of rest
