    Cast Your Ballot
[We’ve voted, have you?
During the past few weeks, we vc offered you our opinions on
the issues in this campaign. \\ e’ve tried, through our news
columns, to explain some of these issues. And we ve tried,
through our editorials, to convince you.
But today, whether you’re corn iced our way or not, we hope
you vote.
' ■ The power of the vote is tire very essence of political freedom
in America. The college campus is a good place to learn how
to use that vote. If our colleges are not turning out intelligent
Concerned citizens then we don't know where we could look for
such citizens.
Vote AGS or UIS. But vote today.
Today's the Test
Todav is the test for campus politics and student government
at Oregon.
Your decision as you cast your ballot today will determine
the type of student government you are interested in—pro
gressive direct voting, with the students retaining the largest
voice possible in selection of party nominees, or strict party
politics with a few party members determining who is run
ning for what office.
We hope you vote to retain the all-campus primary.
We've gone over every reason presented lor tire AGS spon
sored amendment to the constitution which would kill the pri
mary and make room for an AGS nominating convention.
And we are still asking you to vote “Xo" on that amendment
when you mark your ballot today.
We don’t know if a nominating convention will create any
more interest in politics but it will create a lot more work for
somebody. Ask anyone who was on campus in the spring of
1952 when Oregon held its “mock" national convention and
without such work, planning and promotion there's danger
that a nominating convention would be a flop.
The all campus primary has not caused a noticeable drop of
interest in campus politics; Although we've been wondering
how the AGS policy committee could use this argument since
the decision on the plank advocating repeal of the all campus
primary was made one week before the first all campus primary
was held in April.
Oregon will be in the big time — doing things like they do in
national political parties. The United States of America is a little
larger than the University campus. A national convention is
more a matter of expediency than a pattern for our campus
politics to follow-. And we suggest AGS read a few history books j
to see the parts'pressure groups and vote trading play in a na
tional convention.
And we’d like to ask AGS what plans they have for nomin
ating glass officers. Will all delegates at the convention be
allowed to vote for each class officer, or will the classes be able
to make the decision as they do now under the all campus
primary?
"We think an open primary has proven to be a success in one
try. So let’s give it a few more tries before we decide to junk the i
whole thing for some part}' program which has not been well
thought out or well planned.
The primary vote is your vote as a student at Oregon. We urge
you to retain that privilege, and vote “Xo" on this amendment
to the constitution.

Coffee Intake
Doubled Now,
Students Say
by CAROLYN KKITH
Emerald Reporter
If you are a coffee drinker with
midterms this week, chances are
you’ll probably drink twice as
much of the black liquid in the
lext few days as you do in any
regular week on campus. At least
this is the opinion of three out of
five campus business people who
sell coffee to students.
Mrs. Hazel Miller, owner and
nanager of the College Side Inn
said she sells between 200 and
100 cups of coffee daily in an av
;rage week. During midterms and
finals, the number sometimes
climbs to 1000, she added. Across
the street at Taylor's, Mrs. L.
Pugh said that during test weeks
they sell much more coffee than
the daily average of 600 to 700
;ups.
The Student Union sells around
1000 cups of coffee daily, and
Robert Smith, SU food manager,
said he hasn’t noticed any climb in
coffee sales during midterms. He
did point out that the SU gives
away some 3000 cups of free cof
fee on the first day of each final
week.
R. F. Keller, owner of itush Inn,
said his business depends more
an food sales than anything else,
so he can’t say with certainty
that coffee sales increase during
midterms. Mrs. LaDonna Smith,
Lemon ‘O’ clerk, said that she be
lieved there was an increase in
:offee sales during midterms but
wouldn’t say definitely.
The rise in coffee prices appar
ently has not caused most of these
businesses to lose much money.
Yet, both Mrs. Miller at the Side
and Smith at the SU said they
thought students are switching
from coffee to other hot drinks
is a result of the price hike. Mrs.
Miller noted that “each day since
:he rise in coffee prices, we sell
more tea and less coffee.
