ELECTION DAY RESOLVTIONS
Now that the election is over and we are to h*ve the s^e
.dministration. we don’t have to worry as to how a new adminia-
trmtion would effect Elon College, or what part we would pUy in
the political scheme. Nevertheless, we shouldn’t disretard poli
tics, we should think of future elections.
The sole purpose of this editorial is to stimulate, thought
r iny stu ents of Elon are oblivious of the stirring draM now
being ena. ted in the United States of America. Many Eton stu
dents wert in hiph school during the Hoover admimstra^D, and
many w^s in high school during the present administration.
Some were aware of the evils of the Hoover administration and
. the trials of the present one. Many were ignorant of ttese wn-
diUons, os if not ignorant, at least not infomMd of the true sUte
of affairs.
For tie benefit of those who #re not informed, we my sUte
that the Hoover administration left the affairs of state in a per
plexing aad confused condiUon. Roosevelt entered office and
immediately announced a bank holiday-the purpose ton* to
save the country’s monetary system and avert the possible ru n
of "»«"y banks. The real significance of this act was the w-
time power was conferred upon a president in peace Ume. t ol-
lowing this came the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment, the
riM of the brain trust, and the birth of the various or^nuataons
for reUef. Although these organiiations were not totally rffic-
ient they have functioned rather successfully. Also ^ Nine
Juatkes who have hindered the programs of our present adnunis-
timtion are familiar to most of us.
We are working out a problem in history .

Mary Loo Hayea—I think we
should have re«ular Satorday ni«ht
parties by all maana. Thoae who are
not able to r> home on week-ends
have very dull timea whera there s
nothins to do but sit around. If such
thing* as re«ul»r Saturday niRht
partMS or d«nc« are planned for tli«
students, they will enjoy the week
ends at Elon much bettor.
Charlie Evaae—I do not think that
a party every Saturday nifht will be
of aa much value as ray, a well
planned party about every three
weeks. A party evtry Saturday night
would become monotonous and tha
studenta would gradually loaa intor-
est in them.
LawrcBce Farrall—I am not in fa
vor of having a party avery &tor-
day night, if they all will be similar
to the ones in tha past. I might
suggest having a real good party
twice a month instead of every week
The parties of the past are begin
ning to get monotonous.
Ben Lillea—The Saturday night
parties would be a fina thing for tte
studenta providing they would A
cooperate and make the parties en
joyable for all. In the past partiea.
the same group participated In the
entertainment and the rest jast
watched. Let’s all get together and
make Saturday our big night of the
week at Elon.
