Letters to the Editor "I'll Be Damned" Emertild Full tor: I submit this letter, to the satisfaction of pent up emotions I felt at the Voilvll show, Friday niKht. To be frank, I thought the Judging of the .thow to be the wo rat example of taate and fair ness I have ever wltneaaed. When the result* were announced at the Clone of the ahow Friday, my only comment was, “Ml be damned.” And thla feeling wan not unique with me. From other and atronger remarks I heard Fri day night, I mirmiae that many people were aurpriaed. disgusted and Juat plain mad at the out come. Although many complaints "ere voiced by the disgruntled viewers, the inoat prevalent "us, “What criteria did the judges use?” Certainly they did not consider which prrsen Resolutions Not Kept Says Poll Of thoac well-meaning souls who make New Year's resolutions. 53 percent of them really think they can keep them, according to an Associated Collegiate Press Poll of student opinion. According to the results. It looks as if the men arc more sure of their ability to k<-ep resolutions. Fifty-nine percent of the men thought they could keep their resolutions. When asked the question, "Of all the people making New Year's resolutions, what proportion do you think are serious about keep ing them?" 73 percent of the stu dents stated t hat few of the people keep their resolutions. From this it looks like the tradition of mak ing New Year's resolutions is viewed skeptically by a large ma jority of college students, or at least they look at their neighbor's resolutions with a doubtful eye.

The box-office will be open every day except Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m. tallon wan best prepart'd, or which presentation was best received by the high school sen lort, The purpose of any type of production, and especially of vodvll shows, is to entertain. And yet the choice of the judges was certainly no Indica tion that they had even con sidered entertainment as a fac tor in judging. A second question asked by many pertained to the selection of judges. Is it logical to have professors and administrators of the University Judging a stu dent show put on for the benefit of high school seniors? Ami if this policy ia to be followed, why Tuesday 6:00 Sign On 6:03 Dinner Hour Serenade 6:45 News Till Now 7:00 Spencer Snow 7:30 Sports Shots 7:45 Kadio Nederland 8:00 Special Event: Vodvil 1955 8:45 Guest Star 9:00 Kwaxworks 10:55 Final Edition no professors and instructors, from the Hpeech and drama school, people who have some knowledge of the entertainment field ? Why should an organization put many hours of work into creating a skit which from all appearances is a winner, only to have it subjected to the type r;f Judging witnessed Friday night. I must say here, that while I did not think my organization had a “winner,” I don’t think we lost to the first choice of the judges. In my opinion, the result of this type of judging could be apathy on the part of living or ganizations to enter campus com petition.
