A Step in The
Right Political Direction.
The student council investigatory commit
tee on campus politics reused hccklmjr t lie fac
tions lone enoush to draft resolution -which
nay he the answer to thp ills of our student
povermnent. It will he siihmitted In the coun
cil in special session today for ratification,
which surely Aill he lort hconi in y.
After reviewing the malpractices associ
ated with the nomination and election of enn
d dates 10 executive positions, the committee
susaested that the judiciary committee of the
council instruct the factions 1o guarantee the
worthiness of each candidate for office; that
the judiciary committee review nominations
and strike out ihe name of any candidate who
does tiot satisfy requirements laid down ly
that committee: that immediate action be tak
en to correct the delinquency of present mem
bers of the council, with impeachment resorted
to where necessan : and concluded that the
practice of requirinu Miter's pictures on iden.
tifieation cards will solve the problem of mul
tiple voting.
The iiist of the resolution is found in
the proposed power of the judiciary com
mittee to act as a hoard of review over
nominations. It is tiven arbitrary author
ity to strike the mime of any candidate
from the ballot if that candidate fails to
match requirements as yet unpropounded.
No one has laid down a definite crileria
for membership in the student council be
yond elitfUiilily. What is souyht in lead
ers has heretofore been left up to the dis
cretion of the campus voting populace.
Hut drastic as the action of the committee
may be in proposing an all powerful judiciary
committee, it can be explained in the liuht of
past developments. There must be a definite
check on fact ions that is "ranted. If not. no
remedy yiu bo proposed, adopted, and put. into
effect.' As the committee has found, too often
factions propose men because their names are
well known athletic heroes or other campus
idols who have neither the time, inclination,
nor ambition to make capable leaders. Kvi
dently, when some such person is nominated
for office, or at least, if the judiciary commit
tee, is of the opinion that ho is that type of
person, the factions are to be instructed firmly
that he must not run. There may be protests
bound to be. in some eases. A fraternity
whh a favorite son thrown out of the runninj!
will scream at the top of its hnisis. The fac
tions themselves may raise charges of favorit
ism and dictatorial practice.
V
An answer To those charges seems to lie
within the judiciary committee itself. Three
women and two men are members. The women
are not in politics the men usually are not.
bint any attempt by any member who is in poli
tics to manipulate the committee 1o his own
ends can be blocked easily. In the interests
of fair play and to prevent charties of illegal
practice, however, it is imperative that the
judiciary coimnitiee divorce itself from politi
cal activities. Its powers of review accepted.,
the next step is to keep that power in
political. righteous hands. Only complete free
dom from anv affiliations can accomplish this.
The issue is more a moral one for the members
Than is it a tangible one which can be decided
in student council meetiim.
e
The student council, if it ratifies the
investigatory committee's resolution, will
have taken a step in the riuht direction.
All the problems of the factional system
of politics will not be solved, but so many
fail to lend ihemselves to any solution.
There is stiil tin: question of subjuuatioii
of one superior man To ;inolher. if a case
arises where ihere is a choice between two
stronir candidates for nominal inn. in order
'to keep peace and harmony within the
ranks. That is a difficult question to de
cide by any means.
A step fnrward lias been taken. This
may be the initiative in a scries of such
iuoes which will eeutually remove cam
pus politics from the morass of unscrupu
lous practice into which it last xear fell.

LARGEST CONCLAVE OF
MISS BUXMAN TO TALK
TO FRESHMAN A. W. S
Emphasis Placed on College
Research as Applied
To Industry.
NEW YORK, X. Y. (ACPI.
What is expected to be the larg
est gathering of physicists in tho
history of the nation will be held
in the special "founders meeting"
of the American Physical Society,
the Optical Society of America,
the Acoustical Society of America,
the Society of Rheology and the
American Association of Physics
Teachers on October 29-30. These
societies organized, in 1931, the
American Institute of Physics to
coordinate their activities.
Particular emphasis will be
placed on linking the pure scien
tific research of the university
laboratory with the applications of
such research in industry. The im
portant applications of the science
of physics to industry will be re
viewed in papers by invited speak
ers. The wide range of the topics
is shown by the list of a few of
the titles:
"Vibration in Industry." by Dr.
.1. P. Den Hartog, Harvard univer
sity and "Physics in Air Transpor
tation.'1 by Dr. Clark B. Millikan,
California' Institution of Technol
ogy. Albright college students dis

Chairmanships.
Inaugurating the new system of

meeting Wednesday at 5 o'clock in
the drawing room at Ellen Smith

Crabill is starting a new system
whereby students showing their
interest in the freshman A. W. S.
will have the opportunity to serve
as chairman at some meeting. A
name will be selected at each meet
ing and this girl will serve as
chairman that day. Only girls who
show their interest in the group
will be selected.
Urging that all new women stu

tions will be given the girls by
Miss Buxman.

French to visit the display.
All the postcards were brought
back from Fiance by Miss Men
