Sports Editor Our Choice-Hollis Ransom We are supporting Hollis Ransom for A^t O president. Three weeks ago, we were supporting Bob Summers, A( <S candidate. But three weeks of campaigning has changed a lot of things around campus—including our minds. Here’s why we offer our support to Ransom, UTS presidential candidate: 1. He has led his party during the past few weeks. He hasn't been led by cliques within the group as Summers has on sev eral issues, including the all campus primary. Summers didn’t have any definite opinion. He went along with AGS. Ransom has opinions—well thought out, intelligent opinions which he has offered to his party and to the voters. 2. Ransom has made a conscious effort to measure the areas of student government Oregon is interested in. Here we cite the poll UIS took’among Independent students recently, com piling a record of student interests and desires around which to frame their platform. Ransom initiated the poll. And we j think that’s real live student government. 3. Ransom is alert and interested in what is going on at this University. He has been here only two years and there are a lot of things he hasn’t learned about Oregon. But he’s willing to spend time ferreting out every minute detail of any problem 1 until he does understand. And he’s learned an amazing amount even in the past three weeks. 4. He takes campus politics seriously. The only danger we; see here is that he will take student government too seriously, j But a conscientious senate should be a safeguard against that.j And we think the issues presented in the UIS platform indicate that he is aware of the areas in which student government should j "be most active. There are points in both platforms with which we disagree. I But we cannot snub leadership, responsibility and an awareness oi public interest when it is presented to us all rolled up into one ASUO presidential candidate. Admittedly, if Summers had said more or said less during this campaign, we might have continued to go along with him. But whenever he says anything, we’re never sure just what he means or if he has said anything underneath the smooth flow of his words. And if he hadn’t got stuck out on a limb on the all-campus primary with several of the party “big wheels,” we would have more faith in his leadership potential. We tried to support Summers but it just wasn’t in the cards. Ransom has won this campaign hands down and we hope he wins the same way in Wednesday’s election. The ASUO presidency is the only continuing part of student government. It takes a lot of responsibility. It’ll be hard to learn Holly, but we’re backing you all the way.
