Noise Absent as Smoker Election Campaign Begins

Traditional shenanigans were absent yesterday as the annual Freshman Smoker Committee election got off to a slow start. With balloting to be held on Friday--commuters also vote Thursday--only three candidates of the 18 running had created any excitement.

Roger H. Morris and Michael G. Yam in started their campaign at noon yesterday when their jointly-owned wire recorder, blaring forth songs and chants, was placed in the foyer of the Union. In the evening Thomas F. Powers showed up for supper in a brilliant red Superman like cape. Tastefully dangling from his neck was the legend, "let them eat cake."
