During his many years as an
advisor to the Kings of Jordan,
Glubb was the major restraining

it was dragged unwillingly into
a war with Israel.
Recent events in Egypt, Iraq

The voting age has been

ered! School children elect i
president! Strange as it may seem,
that is exactly what did happen
. . . in a mock election this sum
mer at the University.
State College children who
were enrolled last summer in the
Junior Sum m e r Laboratory
School "elected" Richard Nixon
.president in their mock elections.
Today, they have a letter from
the vice president commending
them "for their interest in their
government as expressed through
their presidential election."
Preceding its •election, the class
rallied the vote by making potters
and placards urging the children
to vote for their favorite candi
date. But of the 125 children in the
school only 68 cast ballots, reveal
ing a percentage of apathy toward
political matters to match the
election-day attitudes of their
seniors.
The outcome of the balloting
revealed 36 votes for Nixon and
23 for Kennedy. (One second
grader said she voted for Nixon
because she couldn't spell Ken
nedy's name.)
The class decided to inform
Nixon of his victory but rejected
proposal to write to Kennedy.
'They thought that they "might
'hurt his feelings."
