Harvard’s Exam File Big Asset To Tired Frosh By BERNADINE BOWMAN j Harvard maintains an “examin ation file” for the use of all stu dents. In the case of examinations in courses open to freshmen, the dean of freshmen maintains a complete file of former examinations for sev eral years at a time. These have been mounted on cardboard, and are placed in files in the library of the Harvard Union, which is open tc all freshmen. The Harvard college library also maintains a fairly complete file of examinations in more advance courses, permanently bound in most cases, and these files may be con sulted by all students alike, but it is occasionally difficult for the stu dents to secure particular examina tions at convenient times. Another service afforded by the university is the publishing of vari ous course examinations, which may be purchased by the students. The least one can say about such a system is that it would without a doubt save the frosh pledges a great deal of trouble in copying the exams, as is the practice under the plan in use here.

Vote Your Own Ticket (An Editorial) Ever since the rise of democracy major elections lnivc lieen marked by 1 lie exhortations of someone who feels that it “is every citizen’s duty to go to the [tolls and vote." This year the “citizens of the Attl'O have more than 1 lie rigid to vote. l’ro[iortional representation gives weight to every ballot and is designed to give each voter some voice in the selection of the candidates who are ultimately selected for office on the executive council. There is another factor in this year's elections which has not appeared in the past. Instead of a choice of two candidates, both hand-picked by political factions, there will be eight or ten names on the ballot from which a selection '■an be made. The order in which they are listed determines what office the voter desires they should hold. With these two factors operating, the voter who goes to the balloting place determined to back bis opinion as to which man is best qualified is no longer in the position of the pedestrian who argued with the train for the right of-way because he arrived first. True, the political steam rollers will undoubtedly elect one or more candidates but there will be no “straight-’ tickets---because if one party elects its strongest candidates, only voles from some out side source will be able to keep its other men in the run ning. This means the weaker candidates must represent a broader body than any one party. Every voter, then, whether independent or affiliated, is assured that his ballot carries some influence. There is not necessarily any connection between voting and being a good citizen. Tn this election, where every ballot counts, every voter is a bad citizen if he or she dot's not mark his ballot with the names of the candidates which lie honestly believes best qualified, regardless of their sex and-affiliation, and in the order in which he or she thinks they are qualified. (to to the polls and vote, yes—but. vote intelligently and honestly. Vote your first choice first.

JuniorProm to Be Cavalcade Of Gay Colors ^o|>msli(‘uir|> With the preferential syste of voting being used on the campus for the first time, the girls find themselves in a position to play an important role in local politics.
