St. Mary’s Library
Acquires A New Look
The St. Mary’s Library has
taken on a new air this year. New
furnishings add brightness to the
familiar campus spot where many
hours are spent.
The multicolored curtains of the
browsing room are matched by the
almost psychedelic ottermans
which provide most comfortable
seats. Also in this room is a mod
ernistic cube table.
The reading rooms have assum
ed a new look with the addition of
carrels or study desks. Individual,
double, and pinwheel carrels are
found throughout the rooms. The
chairs for the carrels and for the
study tables are finished in bright
vinyls. These new study tables are
four feet wide to allow ample
space for students to study on
both sides of the tables.
In the current magazine area
there is a new circular table sur
rounded by gold chairs. On both
sides of the library are white gloss
curtains with white black-out cur
tains to screen the sun.
There have also been additions
to the upstairs. One room has been
designated for use by the trustees.
In it is a large walnut table and
red upholstered chairs.
They are a pleasant addition in
order to make students more com
fortable and their study time
more profitable.

NIXON AND SCOTT WIN
AT THE POLLS
Only the few lucky girls that
live in Georgia or Kentucky can
vote in this election. However ev
eryone at St. Mary’s had this op
portunity. On Tuesday, October
29, St. Mary’s conducted a pref
erence poll under the direction of
Mr. Donald Roberts.
The ballot presented to the vot
ers a chance to vote for the three
major presidential candidates and
their running mates and to vote
for North Carolina’s gubernator
ial candidates. The special feature
on the ballot was the write-in vote
for anyone that you preferred as
president.
The turnout at the polls can
most accurately be described as
fair to good but certainly not
overwhelming. 330 people voted
in the election. However this in
cludes the faculty. Out of a stu
dent body of 451, 302 stirdents
voted. This is approximately 67%.
The number that voted from each
class and the faculty is as follows:
freshmen—38 out of a class of 53,
sophomores—39 out of 52, juniors
—122 out of 195, seniors—103 out
of 151, and faculty—28 out of 38.
It is interesting to note that in
the presidential race, the Repub
licans won overwhelmingly, but
in the state gubernatorial race,
the Democrats won. Wallace did
very poorly at the polls.

Some of the other names nomi
nated on the write-in vote were
very interesting and surprising.
Billy Graham, Donald Roberts,
Bat Baulsen, William Buckley,
Dirksen, Gore Vidal, Robert Mc
Namara, Ian Rand, Staughan
Thurmond, and John U. Tate were
nominated. Can you imagine some
of these as president?
