Resolutions To Encourage “These resolutions are an en couragement for America and her allies to either put up, if all of us wish to support the mission which was given to the free forc es in Korea last June, or to shut Control of the student government for the coming year will be decided today and tomorrow when students go to the polls to select an All-College president and eight other offi cers. , The actual balloting will climax nine days of campaign ing by the State and Lion parties.

All-College presidential candidates Worth and George both issued state ments. “I hope the students will com pare the slates man for man, the qualifications man for man, the platforms of both parties, and will consider what has been done and what has not been done in the past,” Worth said. 1 “If they make these comparisons,” he concluded, “and support their conclusions with their votes, I know we will be successful.” “I feel that the Lion party this year,” George said, “has very ex cellent chances of winning. I think the biggest difference be tween the two parties this year is that the Lion party has made no bold claims as to things it can do which are not actually in the hands of the five men who will be elected to All-College cabinet. The only thing I wish to urge the student body is to get out and vote so as to get a ma jority decision'this year.’* PRICE FIVE CENTS
