You see it was like this. . . The game had already started and the spectators were cheering wildly. Qette Dunn was goalie for the Juniors and J o Valente for the Seniors, Everything was fine until something happened to Dunn. As the Juniors had no other sub, Oarfall became Junior goalie. Right away bidding began. ''Come on Guff, you can't let those Juniors score — you're a Senior! . . . Come on Flo old gal, you're on our side now, let's go." You can see what a position Flo was in.

The game between the Senior and" Junior girls last Tuesday ended in a 4-0 victory for '45, maintaining the undefeated record of the class in that sport. The game was not as exciting as others in the past have been. This, however, can be attributed to the general lack of practice on both sides. The skillful playing of Duffy and Winyall was the deciding factor in bringing victory to the Seniors. These two girls were always there to take the ball down the field. At times the action was fast and rough, exhibiting some of the old rivalry spirit. But, for the most part it was slow. In a practice game held last Wednesday, the Sophomore girls defeated the Frosh in hockey. WAA urges that all freshmen who can play come out for practice. The rivalry game is coming up soon and pr.-ctice is essential. Ths WAA tennis tourney had an active week, with the players moving into the semi-finals. The weather, continues favorable.

Paradox Shown,Eligible Voters Elect Roosevelt Judge To Speak For Democrats Forum W i l l Hold Rally In Commons Tuesday Governor Thomas E. Dewey was elected as first choice candidate for President by the student body. In the straw vote conducted by the STATU COLLKRK NEWS last week, Stu- dent Association gave Dewey a margin of 1.0% over President Roosevelt. However, 56.8% of the student eligible to vote in the national elections are in favor of Roosevelt for the next president of the United States. Only 78.9% of the student body voted in the straw Thomas E. Dewey vote, 10.3% of whom are eligible to Republican Candidate vote. This election was a close race, with Dewey polling 25 more votes than the President. The actual figures were: Dewey, 405; Roosevelt, 380; Thomas, 3; disqualified, 2; and blanks, 3. The total number of votes cast was 793. Republican Traditionally The vote this year is hi keepinr; with the tradition that State College is Republican in its politics. Only one in the twenty years that polls have been conducted at State has a Democratic candidate for President been elected by the student body. Of the five times that Roosevelt has been voted upon at the college he was favored by the student body only once. In 1928, the college chose the Republican Albert Ottinger 2-1 over Franklin D. Roosevelt for governor of New York. Roosevelt won the Franklin D. Roosevelt State election, however. The student Democratic Candidate voters gave Herbert Hoover a 2-1 majority over Roosevelt in 1932, but Roosevelt came through in the elections with a landslide vote.
