doubled over with laughter at the
very thought of whatever he was
thinking of.)
What Is It!
"But what, or where is this
Kosmet?" we demanded insolent
ly. Elmer placed a hand on our
shoulder, smiling benevolently.
"Why since you're new here," he
breathed softly, "I'll tell you. The
'Kosmet' you've been hearing so
much about refers to that annual
spring fling, that idiotic riot, that
dirth of mirth, melody and laugh
ter the Kosmet Klub Spring Re
vue," he extolled.
"Shouldn't miss it, huh?" came
our last query.
"Miss it? MISS it? Anyone
would be a fool to miss it, man."
Delighted that at last, we too,
knew the good news, we ambled
on our way, chanting merrily,
"Kosmet's back and UN's got
him!"
Elections

well-qualified candidates for all
partisan elections on the basis
of the candidates' individual merit
and to encourage individual and
thoughtful voting in all general
campus elections.
Organisation Plans.
"The Union Independent Party
is patterned after the organiza
tion plans of the national political
parties and provides for propor
tional representation of all vot
ing groups.
"In this plan each recognized
voting group is comparable to
a state as a voting group, mem
bers of which elect by majority
vote a delegate or delegates to
represent them in any party
meeting. The voting groups are
classified according to their
houses merely to facilitate meet
ings of the voting group as a
whole on party matters, and not
because the individuals are mem
bers of any particular house.
These are known as union groups.
"Students who are not members
of any particular house and who
live off the campus are organized
into voting groups according to
proportional representation. These
groups are called Independent
groups. Only delegates have vot
ing power.
Proportional Representation.
"One delegate will represent
each thirty people. Two delegates
may be elected from groups of
between 30 and 60 and three dele
gates will represent 90 or more
students.
What Delegates Do.

'The party platform, party
slate of candidates for all par
tisan elections and election of
party officers are determined by
a majority vote of the delegates
by the ballot system.
"The ballot system is the oral
method of casting a delegation's
vote or votes until a majority vote
is reached, however, many suc
ceeding ballots are necessary. The
accepted form of casting a dele
gation's vote is "Blank organiza
