Student Body Sb,ows Approval Of This Campus Democracy -rBE past Tuesday students in t he College I lltamped their approval on student democ­racy when more than 90 per cent of them eat ballots for candidates. OnJy once before Jlaa such interest been created in an election. In 1936, 95 per cent of the students went to

thTC:J~~ooth and orderly manner in which the election •was cond ueted was a strong rec· ommendation for the continuation of a atu­deDt government at Glenville. Election booths ud regular procedure served to trAin &tu­deJita for future elections in P.;etual po1itics. oae of the prime objectives of student goY­erameDt.

Dcsening perhaps u many eongratulatoey remarks u the successful candidate is the atudent body. The achievement is a Com­IDelldable one. The president-elect is now oba llpted to serve the student l>ody, and the Radenta are obligated to cooperate. This makes .tudent democracy .-.(mfford Lamp.

Maybe Europeans Can' t Imagine Bombs Dropped Into Their Soup 9HE last paragraph in a list of air-raid jn-1 ltructiona posted in a London hotel reada: 01Diuing-room customers who wish to enter tile bomb-proof aheltu should tell the walt­_., who will present their bill immedia.tely."

Sup- that the people in the United su.t- had to pay au extra charge for protee­tloa at their livea every time they eat a meal at a hotel. Suppose that when they go to a Jlllltaurant for a bowl of soup they are oalwaya lla•ated with the f~r of having a bomb drop. Mel into iL • - fte European eonfliet is now flamin• a--.w. The citizens of tbat continent are C:On-.t:llluaUy under a terrific: strain fearing that 6e next m'Ove may bring their death.

Tbere must be some reason for all of the aurder and devastation these countries deal with so enthusiastically. Maybe 'the political J1aden and war advocators of these coun· t:rJee don't eat aoup. May.be the thoughts of a ltomb in their eountrymen's soup don't dis­tllrb them.

Posture Week Reminds Us To Stand Up to Life

STAND ue<t and ljvel is a fttting slogan for Natio-nal Posture Week. May 6-11,

.tace standing up straight aRd taU enables one not only to look better, but actually to IIYe better," recently said Arthur E. McCiue, .t.ate health commissioner. As he made clear, Jt baa been conftnned by r~puta'ble physicians that poor posture is definitely injurious to tbe body.

Last week was "National Posture Week," and we students were asked to examine our
