Campus Politicos View Frosh, Soph Elections Both campus political parties, now getting their campaigns ready for the Nov. 16 elections, will face much the same problems they encountered last year in freshman and sophomore class elec tions. State party will meet at 7 p. rn. Sunday Lion party will meet at the same time in 121 of preliminary campaign plans and election of clique officers probably will be main business of the meetings. The Lions, who swept to an overwhelming victory in the all- College elections last spring. will be faced with. the problem of holding ground gained in the last two all-College elections. How ever, a defeat this fall would not do them as much damage as an other Lion victory would do to the State party. Large Vote Staters, who have won in the last two fall elections, but have not taken an all-College election since spring of 1948, will be out to roll up a large victory vote to keep themselves in the n.inning for the spring battle.

What effect last year's tend ency toward greater turnout at the polls will have is an unknown quantity. Before last year, only about 30 per cent of those eligible voted in student elections.

But a 42 per cent turnout handed the Lions a tremendous margin in the spring.

Prof Opposes Hort Woods Parking Lot "The only way for the College to be sure of retaining its one natural woodland is for Hort woods to be declared inviolate by the Board of Trustees," H. E. Dickson, professor of fine arts, told the Daily Collegian yester day. "Although present plans for a parking lot there may or may not be cancelled,, the College needs a long range plan for its retention, not just this year or the next, but as long in the future as pos sible," he said. Student support for the woods to remain untouched is evident, he added. A portion of Hort woods had previously been staked out for conversion into a parking lot. Questioned yesterday concern ing further plans of the College, George W. Ebert, director of physical plant, said that he could "make no comment for publi cation at this time." S. K. Hostetter, assistant to the president in charge of business', and finance, was out of town and could not be contacted for com ment.

Fraternities believe that they are •"butting against a stone wall" but are determined to get rid of prohibition, members said. Leinbach proposed that a reso lution be drawn up and promised action from IFC. Must Act Through IFC He told the committee that it must act through IFC and not go over its head, as some members had suggested. Pact that University of Penn sylvania petitioned for and brought about the return of drinking to the campus was men tioned. It was also stated that if men cannot drink in the open they will drink on the sly. Last summer the Co 11 eg e banned drinking in fraternities and other organizations and or dered that all bars be removed. The no drinking rule states that "the Co-liege does not permit the establishment of bars or their maintenance in the residence or headquarters of any fraternity, rooming house, society Or other student organizations and that all existing facilities shall be, removed by Sept. 10, 1950."
