Pearson sa'. that his cand
the Nittany and West Halls areas
and had counted on the freshman
and sophomore votes to offset
Campus party ictories in the
junior and seni i r classes.
He added tha. a.guick check
Thursday night j in the Nittany
dining hall shoWed that . many
students failed to vote because
"they didn't feel like walking
up to the Helsel Union Building
to vote."
Charles Steele, Campus party
chairman, said that one of the
reasons Campus party did not
have a "strong" freshman vote
was because of the present All-
University officers' w e 11-de
served good reputation."
Since University party has won
the last two elections, the fresh
man class has heard more about
that party, Steele said.
University party's work in
the dormitory areas paid off in
the freshman ballots. Arthur
Miltenberger., University party's
unsuccessful candidate for SGA
president carried the class-4he
only one carried-380436
for Leonard Julius, the elected -
Campus
,party candidate.
Miltenberger lost by 216 votes
—1423-1207--but he failed to
carry any of ,the other classes.
Julius won the sophomore vote,
455-351, the junior vote, 464-355,
and the senior vote, 168-121.
In discussing the campaign,
Steele said Campus party candi
dates campaigned hard in - all
areas. "You can't win an election
on only pne 'section," he said.
All classes 'will be represent
ed in the reorganised student
governnient and it is especially
important fo acquaint the fresh
man class with facts about can
didates and student govern
ment. Steele said.- Campus par
' fy candidates paid as much at
tention in campaigning to the
freshman class as they did to
other' classes. he said.

FOR A BETTER PENN STATE
Chance of
Threatens
Showers predicted for late morning or early afternoon may dampen for the Spring Week
Carnival scheduled from 7 to 12 tonight.
David Epstein, carnival chairman, said yesterday that things didn't look good. He said
he didn't think cold weather would hurt the carnival at all. "Of course our main problem
is rain," he added.
Final word on the weather situation will be broadcast by WMAJ between 11 a.m. and
12 noon. The rain date for the
carnival is Monday.
If the weather should stay fav
orable Epstein has predicted a
crowd of 10,000 to 12,000. If the
carnival goes off on schedule,
there will be 28 booths and 4
novelty concessions.
The booths, in competition
for the Spring Week trophy,
will be set up in a U shape with
two lines down the middle.
Scattered among them will be
the other concessions.
Also to be at the carnival are
three food concessions and six
amusement rides. Epstein said
tickets must be used for all events.
No cash may be used and only
tickets will be honored, he said.
,Epstein said there will be nine
ticket booths on the carnival
grounds. There will also be Six
booths for tickets to the rides.
While the price of tickets for'
the shows is limited to 10 cents.
the rides will set their own price.
He said the rides would open
at 4 p.m.
Two of the four novelty booths
will be sponsored jointly by Gam
ma Sigma Sigma and Alpha Phi
Omega, women's and men's serv
ice fraternities. One will be en
air rifle range' and the other a
ring toss.
McKee and Atherton Halls
will sponsor a baseball throw at
bottles. The Outing Club will
offer he-men a chance to fake
some swings at an old car with a
sledge hammer. _
According to Epstein, the booths
will not be divided into eras in
order to give the crowd greater
diversity.
There will be two ferric wheels
this year along .with the four
other rides. The number of rides
was increased by two over last
year to help take care of some of
the milling crowds.
Food, which must be bought
with tickets, will be provided

From the minute two sniall
boys ran down the middle of; the
street yelling "here it comes"
the air was filled with excite..
ment.
Winners will not be an

Wednesday. At that time a first,
second and third place trophy
will be given for each cate
gory.
The beauty of the floats
brought a statement from Ro
bert Johnson, chairman of the
parade. "The floats this year are
a lot more elaborate than last—
a lot more work and time went
into them," he said. "Everybody
gained a lot of experience in the
last year."
There was a large increase in
movable parts in this year's par
ade. One character in a bathtub
brushed his back, wheels on Char
iots and merry-go-rounds turned
and a cyclop raised his arms to
heave a rock.
A few of the groups made an
attempt to professionalize their

ics was involved."
