Managing Editors ^rcXfio^MlnaJcr8 Some Rules of Thumb for Monday No matter who wins Monday’s ASUO elections, it will have been a hard fight. The side that wins will not have had an easy time of it, this year of the three parties. Certain debatable issues will also have been settled. Among these issues are the permanence of the social split on the campus, and the unassailability of the Greek bloc. If Warren Miller and his USA don’t come through this year when the conditions are favorable toward a third pait\, the campus may well dig in for an interminable siege. Stu dents may then face the fact that Greeks and Independents cannot get along together, that political friendship between the two groups is impossible. Greeks.may then accept the fact that they are forever to be under the thumb of the “bloc” and the power politics it represents. They may take a dim view of ever again assert ing themselves as individuals in the campus political picture. In future years they may have good cause to wonder if it is worthwhile even to go out to vote. Sunday, unless we are misinformed, will see a series of Greek “scare meetings,” with bloc politicians visiting doubt ful houses and threatening the membership (especially the freshmen) with loss of Kwama and Phi Iheta piefeience if they stray from the fold. They will doubtless carry with them the old fiction about “We know how you vote.” Obviously both assertions are false. Kwama and Phi Theta are too well balanced to be controlled by the bloc, and the secret ballot is still secret. Nobody knows how a person votes Numbered ballots are no give-away. Ballots are numbered in the best of elections. The only rule of thumb that can serve as a good guide to voting in campus elections is the old rule of “search thy soul. ’ Vote for the person and vote for the party that you think best represents what is good in government. Consider the individ ual, of course. But consider, too. the system which put him up. Consider what he represents. Vote for the future. Vote for the system you honestly think should prevail. With those principles in mind no students should go wrong. Stassen Trailing_ (Continued from page one) tary of state: Flagg, 16,398; New bry, 25,441.

And no department so faithfully sought to have those ideas work. Gets Nomination In 1940 Wallace received the nomination for vice-presidency that put him into the same office his father had held under Warren Harding.
