The campaign •is still a couple hours off, but at this point three parties have already handed in a total of 13 petitions endorsing 10 different candidates. Sixty-four dollar question: What class was it which, one week ago, was entirely unable to whip up a political fight? Postscript His name has once more been withdrawn from the junior class treasurer race in favor of another candidate. He's plugging away as campaign manager for a ;hybrid group that lost its official identity on the bal lot through a coalition with Inde pendents '45. His new allies are members of the clique he had worked for two years to crush, and had finally al most completely succeeded. - • Walter C. Price, ex-head of the mighty Campus '45 political ma chine, is fast fading from Penn State's political limelight. Long may he study in peace. • Trick Of The Trade One of the neatest bits of poli tiking in many a day—the plug St. Clair got over the radio during the Penn game. The Independents had every opportunity to do ditto doubly, but then who ever thought that a sportscaster would mention that one of the football players was also a candidate for class office? Senior Struggle. _ The 'hokus-pokes of new parties and cross-breed slates is admitted ly interest-attracting, but for a straight-laced, old-fashioned poli tical battle, the senior class de serves an unanimous award. Two hard-working presidential candidates, backed by two well organized, battle-wise cliques, are putting on an exhibition of an al most professional calibre. It's the last college campaign for both the candidates and their• cliques, and they both seem to be concentrating on this race as their all-out effort. Political Pickups Reports from the battlefront That one of the uppelclass cliques was seen by a former politician— an ex-expert at handling campaign expenditures—going over its budg et limit... That one of the party secretaries Blakeslee Urges Full Use Of Student Franchise In Three-Day Balloting "Penn State is a testing ground for democracy," Jerome C. Blakes lee, All-College president, stated last night, as he called upon stu dents to exercise their franchise in the voting that begins at 12:30 p. m. today. Following is the complete text of the All-College president's state ment: "A new group of student leaders will soon take over in All-College Cabinet to direct the policies of student life. These student leaders will undoubtedly 'be faced with even more perplexing problems than have been the present mem bers of Cabinet. "It is up to the student body to elect those 'students best qualified to carry out these responsibilities. As All-College President I , call on you students to exercise your fran chise in the All-College elections starting today at 12:30 p. m. in Old Main. Penn State is a testing ground for democracy. You can do your part to make democracy work at Penn State by casting your vote today, tomorrow or Thursday." DOROTHY K. BRUNNER Candidate for All-College Vice president, Independent Party is reporting privately that she could run the clique better than the regular party boss... That one of the All-College can didates is l-A with Uncle Sam... That fines are .awaiting - certain of the cliques for not including the All-College averages on candidates' petitions... That Campus '4s's new clique chairman turned. partially gray haired last week trying •to think ol some way to nab a ray or two of the spotlight from the opposition forces... • That the non-fraternity man doesn't get more consideration in politics because he's not willing to earn it by coming out to vote... That, after the present battle has spent itself, all clique chairmen may automatically be re-classified under 4-F. More parties and the fear of more parties are said to be creating nervous wrecks.
