Students Approve Ike's Candidacy For Presidency By Jean ?.ewis “What do you think of Senator Lodge's statement that he will put Eisenhower's name on the New Hampshire Republican primary ticket?” Most of the students interviewed with this question thought that Eisenhower should run for presi dent because he would make a good president or because there is no other person as capable of the job at this time. One student thought that “Ike” should not run as he is needed more where he is. Most interviewed thought that Eisenhower would run for presi dent if he were supported by the people and one person thought he should declare himself if he is go ing to run. The question was asked before "Ike's” decision was announced. Barbara Cook freshman in lib eral arts “It's hard to say wheth er he'll run or not but if people get behind him there's a possibility.” Cal Hovland senior in geogra phy “If he does run he would probably be elected but he would do more good for the country where he is.” Dick Courtwright graduate student in education “Under the circumstances Eisenhower would probably be the only one the Re publicans would have a chance with unless they can find another Abe Lincoln, which is rather un likely in this day and age.” Kdna Tinker sophomore in business "I think Eisenhower should declare himself." Bernice Queen junior in busi ness "I don't know whether it would be a good idea to have a military man for president, but if we are going to be eternally at war, maybe Eisenhower would make a good president, but how do we know unless we try 1t. and if it doesn’t work out we can al ways oust him in four years." Ia n Calvert freshman in jour-1 nalism - "I think Eisenhower might make a good president but it's too early for an opinion until 1 find out who else is going to run." Bill Owen junior in architec ture " Ithink it's a good plan. Every state should do the same." Susan Berg freshman in edu cation—"I think he would make a good president and I hope he runs. They should put him on the Republican ticket in New Hamp shire." Valeric Holden—freshman in lib eral arts- "With the world situa tion like it is now he should be president.” 1 CLASSIFIED riara yon*' «d at the Student Union, main desk or at the Shark, In person or phone ext.
