Election Win
By Jane Schoolfield
“As Salem goes, so goes the
nation,” or so it seems according
to the mock presidential election
held here Tuesday prior to the
national election. The victory ac
corded Eisenhower by the Salem-
ites, however, was not so large as
that which he received from the
nation.
In chapel Tuesday Glenn Petty
john summarized the G. O. P. plat

The speaker in favor of the Re

In conclusion Pettyjohn said

with this question; “Are we going
