Political
Scene
(Continued from page four)
must have a great man to head
the country.
This “great man” campaign for
Eisenhower is a good selling point
for the Republican Party this fall.
The General led the European
powers temporarily, and had con
siderable leadership experience in
other parts of the world. Even
many Democrats will grant that
Eisenhower is a greater man than
Truman, but they still maintain
that he is not the great man for
the job.
One other excellent selling
point presented thus far by the
Republicans is the corruption-in
high-offices issue. However, the
recent news concerning Richard
Nixon, Republican vice presiden
tial nominee, at least temporarily
dimmed the Republican chances
to sound this issue. Although there
is probably little legal or moral
wrong in Nixon’s acceptance of
$lB,OOO for his campaign, the
American public has been made
corruption-conscious by the Re
publicans themselves.
Personalities are also taking a
big hand in formulating the
American voters’ ideas. On the
Democratic side, the confident,
brisk tongue of Adlai Stevenson
is hindered, in some opinions, by
his acceptance of the active sup
port of Truman. The democratic
vice presidential candidate, John
Sparkman, has remained pretty
much out of the campaign thus
far and may remain the silent
partner in the Democratic camp.
Eisenhower, with his convinc
ing off-the-cuff talking style,
has been hindered in many eyes
by the campaigning in his be
half of Senator Taft, who is a
less-convincing speaker and
whose record contradicts many
of Eisenhower's stands. Eisen
hower's acceptance of Senator
Joseph McCarthy and other Re
publican bug-a-boos has also
made him a less effective can
didate.
The next few weeks will show
more of the American opinions of
these four leading political fig
ures—Stevenson, who is now tour
ing the north-east and central
states; Eisenhower who toured
the same area this week; Truman,
who will whistle-stop the east,
central, and west in the next two
weeks; and Taft, who is now
speaking extensively in east and
central United States.
Cabinet -
(Continued from page one)
committee on student-faculty re
lations and will present two pro
posals to cabinet. One proposal
will deal with the College advis
ory system and the other will
suggest a more workable program
of informal meetings between fac
ulty and students. The proposal
will include a request that cabinet
inform the faculty of the sug
gestions.
Other committee reports to be
heard at the meeting are a report
on the Campus Chest by Samuel
Nowell and a report by Mary Pet
tigout on the Freshman Customs
Board."
Cabinet will be presented with
names for committee positions on
the elections and Spring Week
committees. A parliamentarian
will be named at the meeting.
A recess will be called about 9
p.m. to allow those students who
must leave for dormitories to
do so.

the Campus Patrol, said.

a.m. by some of the women liv

Patricia Ellis, sophomore member

women did on men.
