Complete Outfitters for the Stiulent Elon Sliulen ts Exjyress Preference ForStei'enson In Ccnupus Election One of the most interesting events of the fall term at Elon was the student presidential poll, which was held on Monday. Oc tober 27th. with slightly moer than 56 per cent of the Elon student body voting and giving Aalai StevenEcn a majority of 186 to 173 votes over General Dwight Eisenhower. One interesting angle of the poll lay in the fact that the per centage of Elon students voting v.as almost the same that was pre- dirted for the voting percentage of American citizens in the nation wide election held yesterday. . It wers unsigned. The result from,American yoith in their section cach question presented points of of the United States, expressed reasons for their votes in interest. On the first que.stion in regard ;o family political affiliations. ;heie were 208 of the S59 students who stated that their families were Democratic, while 87 indicaied that their families were Republi can. There were 61 who signified their families voted as Indepen dents, two noted that their families Uieir statements that indicated serious thought and consideration of the pic’oleras. A break-down of the votes for Eisenhower and Stevenson proves interesting in regard to the shift- ;ng political opinion. More than half ol Eisenhower's support came from students who reported 'Plit between the Republicans and their families as either Demo- Demccrats, and one student de clared Dixiecrat leanings for his family. The results of the second ques- lemained for yesteidays national jjj regard to the extent of iiit election to see whether the per- ipj-pst the presidential centage came out as predicted. The Elon students were asked four questions on the ballots, which were distributed to them during the Monday morning chapel program. The four questions vvere as follows: 1. Is your family mainly Dem ocratic, Republican or Independent in its political views. 2. Have you taken a strong o.' justh casual interest in the 1952 oresidential campaign? 3. If the election were held oday and you were entitled to vote, would you vote lor Eisen hower or Stevenson? 4 In one sentence, give the reason for your choice of Eisen- *iower or Stevenson for President i of the United States. In each ca.se the students were to turn in iheir ballots and ans- in the presidential cam paign found 224 of the 359 stu dent vvoters indicating a strong interest in the 1952 campaign, while 145 others expressed onl> casual interest. The brief reasons for their pref erence between Eisenhower and Stevenson brought many interest ing answers, with many of those who supported Eisenhower giving the stereotyped answer of “1 like Ike.” or "We need a change. ’ One of the Stevenson adherents revers ed the trend with the declaration. '1 do not want Ike.’’ However, he got his answer in one of the more brief Republican statements \hich read "I just don't like Stev enson." It is significant and encourag ing, however, that the great major- •ty of the Elon students, who rep- esent a fair cross-section oi eralic or Independent, with 50 nf the 'Ike ” ballots coming fror.i ludcnt.s of Democratic origin, .hjie 43 others were from the In ■e r.diint rroup. There was a less marked shift of support to Stevenson, but there were 8 students from Republican families who disregarded family influence to vote for the Illinois governor, and 18 of the Indepen- o'ent group supported Stevenson The lone Dixiecrat was emphatic )i his s'loport of Steven.?on The Elon poll was strictly in line with political prophecies in ’ne factor at least, that being the Icseness of the race and it indi- ’ated that the election would be xn exceedingly interesting one to vatch. regardless of the outcome Beta Chi Epsilon, composed o£ students of the Comniercial De partment of Elon College, held its first dinner party of the year last Thursday night, October 30th, in tlie Candlelight Room of Cor- lect Time Inn, which was attract ively decorated in the Halloween theme.
