Six ROOSEVELT LKAIW IN w. G. C. STRAW BALLOT (Continued from Page One) 52. favored the Roosevelt platform in 1932, nnd only 49 repeated the choice Tuesday, compared to the ten votes which Landon managed to get. In 1932 five of the Freshmen boys were for Hoover, and believe it or not, two of that same group stated that they voted for A1 Smith in the same year. Three had no choice in the elections, and the six who favored Roosevelt four years ago now look to the future with landon, Knox, and Hamilton. One of Hoover’s five votes in 1932, according to one Freshman boy’s ballot, is going this year into the ranks of the Communists, po litically. The heaviest and most uniform balloting on the whole election came from the Freshmen girls who guve Roosevelt some 95 votes, Lan don 9 votes, and Browder and Pure ... and of finer texture than most anything that touches your lips...

One of Hoover’s 1932 flock of Freshmen women has gone Com munist, while Franklin Roosevelt, undoubtedly West Georgia’s choice, lost only on Freshman girl to Gov ernor I^andon. The voting was sponsored by the West Georgian to determine in what lines the students were think ing politically, and to also de termine whether this college was possessed with the same political philosophy that so many junior colleges are. The voting was, on the whole, taken very seriously, as if the stu dents themselves were actually casting votes in a national election to decide on a candidate. West Georgian reporters said Wednesday night that many of the Landon voters were inclined to dis agree with the present administra tion because of its apparent dis regard of the Constitution. There was some hesitation on the part of the editor of the West Georgian, which sponsored the bal loting, as to the placing the Com munist candidate on the ballot. Browder’s position was, how ever, finally recognized after ad vice from several faculty members. The West Georgian is neither way politically, but it was hoped that no hard feelings would be shown regarding Browder’s name appearing on the ballot, as the newspaper can see no earthly rea son for the absence of any candi dates name, the editorial board said Wednesday night at a staff meet ing.
