WSGA Announces Candidates For Women’sElectionsMarch
Muse'Vole For
[• JOTiai May Queen;
l Ciamge Proposed
A joint committee of men and
vomer, ■decided last night that
>nen should not vote for this
year’s May Queen and proposed
a plan for having future May-
Queens selected by a committee
composed of 15 representative
men and women students to
make the affair an All-College
one.
Chief among the reasons that
men would not vote for the
queen this year were that it
would involve a change in the
Y/SGa constitution, her selec
tion would become a political is
sue, more women than men at
tend the celebration, and having
men vote would place the most
important queen of the‘year on
a status with all other queens.
The plan for choosing next
year’s May Queen recommends
that Miss -Charlotte E. Ray, dean
of women, A. R. Warnock, dean
of men, All-College president,
and WSGA president choose a
group of representative men and
women students who are unbias
ed in their opinions.
The proposal would not allow
the entire student body to vote
■bu,t would eliminate politics from
Die election.

t>le. If you give them the whole
square, they won’t come back
down town," Leitzell testified.
Referring to his own stand on
ihe matter, Leitzell said, “I have
nothing to. feel sorry about.
Everybody had enough time to
-make up their minds, and I won’t
-retreat from my present posi
tion.”
It was pointed out that Grey
bound has made certain com
mittments which would make it
unprofitable for them to return
to their downtown location.
When the first Greyhound bus
drove across the line of the nSw
depot the contract went into ef
fect, Leitzell said.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
We, The Women —
'May Queens Lousy'
Campus Men Say
Since the first May Queen
marched with her retinue of
beauties onto the campus her
successors have been accompani
ed- on their promenade to the
throne with criticisms from the
men students of the campus. “The
choices of the coeds stink,” they
bluntly commented, For years
they have yearned to vote for
the queen—or so we surmised
from their criticisms.
Women students were loath to
have men vote for the May-
Queen because:
1. They felt May Day to be a
coed tradition.
2. Men would select the pret
tiest coed who very often would
not make a regal queen.
When women's organizations
joined with men’s groups to form
the All-College student-govern
ment set-up, coeds discussed the
•feasibility of inviting men to
have a. choice in electing the
queen, for the following reasons:
1. While May Day had been
a coed tradition, it was now a
College institution.
2. As many, or more, mothers
of men students as coeds' mothers
journeyed to the campus each
Mother’s Day' to witness the
crowning of the senior beauty.
3. With a portion of women's
funds going to the All-College
government, the May Day budget
had to be cut,while if May Day
should become an All-College
affair, the budget could be in
creased to provide an even more
spectacular ceremony.
4. It would eliminate adverse
comments from male students on
the coeds choice of a beauty sov
ereign.
After heatedly discussing the
proposition, women’s student
government decided to offer to
the men that May Day become
an All-College affair—the May
Queen to be chosen in All-Col
lege elections.
But last night, surprisingly, the
men rejected the offer.
But May Queens wilt continue
to stroll onto front campus with
their courts. And each year men
students will think they could
have done better and will say,
“The choice of the coeds stinks!”
