Why So Few Nominees?
The rain has evidently prevented
the political bee from buzzing about
much, for the nominations for student
body officers this morning failed to
bring forth the usual crop of candi
dates, in fact, President Kay was
forced to plead for applicants for sev
eral positions, to wit, assistant edi
tors of the Monthly and manager of
the same. Just why this scarcity
should be, it is difficult to say. It may
be that national politics have ab
solved all the interest, or that stu
dents are afraid to trust themselves
to the fortunes of popular election,
or that the present Junior class has
failed to develope the usual number
of prominent students, but whatever
it is, the number of nominees this
year stands in direct contrast to the
wholesale scramble of the 1912 class
for places.
