Politicians `Keep it Campus and Lion Parties for three days now have been splashing paint on downtown win dows and scattering to the winds printed praise of their respective platforms and candidates. And they will continue to do so until the spring campaign spree ends on Monday. But more important, the parties' nominees are sctrrying from dorm to fraternity day and night in an effort to pocket the popularity they need to blast their opponents into "senior slump" a year ahead of time. Sometimes however, in search of winning campaign oratory, candidates for office turn to the personalities of the opposite party and its nominees As easy as it is for this negative ap proach to creep into any campaign, it is a defi nite detr_rnent to good and responsible student government. A certain amount of examination of the posi tive abilities and experience of each candidate is permissible and even desirable. But it is our contention that discussions or rumors concerning such topics as race, religion, and personal beliefs have no place in any cam paign, particularly for nomination or election to student offices. We hope the nominees and party politicians will bar all such irrelevant issues of personality from their oratory for the remainder of the campaign, Another favorite poll-pulling device seems to be informal promises of radical changes in cam pus institutions and administration policy which student have about as much chance of ful filling as they have of ending death, taxes and the draft Cut That Budget! More and more people are becoming incensed these days with the size of President Eisen hower's federal budget. The New York Times reported Sunday that a survey of the mail of congressmen showed that 75 per cent of the constituents are up in arms h President Eisenhower because they feel that his budget is far too high. Yet, like every phase of running an efficient government, this problem has many ramifica tions and one golden solution has not appeared. Everyone has his own interest and feels that any money earmarked for other projects can be sliced from the budget at relatively little cost. Thus the average working man complains to his congressman most vehemently about any rumored increase in taxes. Big business inter ests evince disgust with any similar hike in corporate taxes. Some senators oppose foreign aid while others scream about too much money for federal cord building.

Business Manager Research ■nd Records Mgr Clean' When a candidate throws his hat in the ring. it is not unusual for him to pick it up again and begin talking through it. Students except a certain amount of this "the-sky's-the-limit" oratory, but should not allow it to cloud their thinking. . . Narrow partisan policy and petty politics do not enlighten the student body as to what their leaders will do next year. The All-University Elections Committee has approved the party platforms as within the scope of student government, and discussions on the planks—if objective—should form a basis for campaigning. Quite some time ago, President James A. Gar field said. "He serves his party best who serves his country best." It would not be incorrect, it seems to us, to make an analogy in the direction of student government. We have no desire to lose our voter's appetite by having candidates serving us dirt for dinner or lunatic promises for lunch. We believe the nominees can best win them selves both the vote and the respect of the students through an intelligent discussion of the issues and ideas which are of real import and on which All-University Cabinet can act next year. A clean campaign can make the painted win dows and the' paper propaganda worthwhile. But not only the nominees, but the entire stu dent body and the reputation of student govern ment stand to win or lose through the rest of the week's political oratory. , will be) someone is going to complain and some- one is going to suffer a drop in popularity. A very good example of the confusion which can come from demanding budget cuts on too many items is a story run Monday in the Pitts burgh Press. It seems that Rep. John B. Bennett (R.-Mich.) is one of 30 representatives in favor of cutting federal spending in any way possible. Thus, the story presumed, Bennett would be against such things as House Bill 91 which asks for two bil lion dollars for a 2300-mile highway between Northern Michigan and Everett, Wash. If this is so, Bennett, becomes something of a hyprocrite—he introduced House Bill 91. This only serves to point up, as the Press story did, that on Capitol Hill "everybody's in favor of economy—for the other fellow." No Smell Next Fall What happened, no smell? This will probably be the common phrase next fall when the bad odor around Sparks and the Library is not evident. On March 25 the Division of Landscape Con struction and Maintenance will start spraying to remove the larvae of the elm leaf beetle which it has discovered to be the cause of the horrible odor. We don't know what the sudden inspiration to get rid of the smell was. We do know, how ever, that after years of complaints the student body will greatly appreciate the riddance of the imaginary skunk jungle around the two buildings. Perhaps the political parties missed a good bet. Here's something that one could have backed and have had the luck to have it turn out successfully. ning are Virginia Barone and Ju dith Dußois. Mary Sterbutzel read the elec tions code to the candidates. Failure to comply with the rules will automatically render a candi date ineligible. Candidates will campaign in the woman's residence halls to night and Sunday night.

Bob Franklin —The Editor —Sue Conklin an on Campus Little %ice/% According to Moyle The student press at Stanford is dead! A university of 7603 students is without its central means of communication, the Stanford Daily. On March 7 the staff of the Stanford Daily walked out leaving the university without a student newspaper because of oppressive action on the part of the student governing body, the Legislature (comparable to our All-University Cabinet.) We have been noticing all year the battle being waged between Dave Scott, Daily editor, and the Legislature over the matter of disapproval of the Daily editor. Stanford's Legislature has been trying all year to pass legislation which would make the editor sub ject to dismissal upon the sub mission of a petition signed by 400 students and subject to a vote of the Legislature. ' This means that slightly more than 5 per cent of the Stanford student body could get together and have the Daily editor fired. On March 6 the Legislature passed this ruling, and the• next morning's issue was the last at Stanford. Screaming banner head lines proclaimed to the student body that the newspaper staff had quit. The issue was complete with a front page editorial by the editor which proclaimed: "We're leaving. Legislature has tried to force cooperation down our throats. We've taken all the abuse we could and we're sick of it. The whole staff is walking out and will not return until the pre sent legislation is rescinded." Although the Legislature spokesman said although he thought there would be no recall of any editor for 10 years, the ruling would keep the editor on his toes, this ruling is just one of the restrictions which are being placed on the student press all over the country. Scott said in his editorial, "The Last Straw," "three days before the last issue there was an execu tive session of the Legislature in which the Daily editor was grilled for the major mistakes which THURSDAY. MARCH 14. 1957 by Bibler by mike moyle have occurred in the Daily for the last few years." If you recall the Collegian was a subject for discussion a few weeks ago because it was felt that it was going downhill and that too many mistakes were being made. Of course, we give Cabinet more credit than to pass any such silly legislation as was passed at Stanford, but the similarity of situations couldn't help but to catch our eye.

During the evening program at Schwab auditorium, Bahrenburg will present the governor with an engraved Nittany Lion statuette purchased by the Business . Admi nistration Student - Council.
