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. More Deadly Species?

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.
