Ike/ Estes Cop Party Nominations
by Bob Stitser
Amid the cheers, catcalls and collusion which occur in the real thing. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower (R) and Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.) won the presidential nominations ,of their respective mock conventions at Pepperdine Saturday.
Both candidates gained the majority of the nominating votes on the fourth ballot, but it was touch and go for both candidates throughout the final vote.
Gov. Earl Warren (R-Calif.), who was the closest contender, was downed by Eisenhower, former commander of the NATO forces. 619 to 519.
Miss Warren Misses
It was reported by the NY. delegation (UCLA) that Dorothy Warren, daughter of the governor and UCLA delegation member. would have made the acceptance speech had her father won.
Senator Kefauver edged William O. Douglas (D), associate j’lstice of the Supreme court, 645 to 473.
With 27 Southland colleges, representing 48 states, participating in the two confabs, the GOP and Democratic Model conventions followed in close succession.
Convening at 8:45 a.m., the GOP session wras opened by Dr. Carlton C. Rodee professor of political science and president of the Southern California Political Science association which sponsored the model conclaves. Dr. Rodee was the temporary chairman of both the Republican and Democratic committees.
SC Backs Warren
SC politicos, representing Calif, and Conn. delegations, cast their lot with the Warren bandstand in the GOP polling .
On the initial roll call, the nominating round, spokesmen Bo Jansen for Calif, appealed to the convention’s delegates to support Warren.
Delegates did not take the Warrrenites too seriously,' as six other candidates wrere polling votes on the first ballot. They were Gen Douglas MacArthur, Sen. Wayne Morse (Ore.), Gov. Leveritt Saltonstall (Mass.), Ex-Gov. Harold Stassen (Minn.). Sen. Robert A. Taft (O.), and Eisen-hovor.
Teeter*
On the first two ballotings, the lead teetered between Taft and Eisenhower. The third and fourth votes brought strong support for Warren, chiefly clue to collaboration between West and South.
This political collusion had been partially instigated by the Calif, and Conn. delegations who had promised just about every post from RFC jobs to the vicepresidency to influence the vote for Warren.
Starting out with the mimirrum of demonstration and shuffling, the Democratic convention, which was convened at 1:45 by Dr. Ro-
action of the ASSC Senate last Thursday, the runoffs will be held on two days instead of three.
Schuck, said, however, that there will undoubtedly be a runoff between the two top candidates for yell king on Wednesday.
Casey (TRG) will be out to gain the majority which he missed by 91 votes in last week’s election. His lead of 59 over Hitchcock (TRG, Unity) may increase or may vanish, according to the whims of 239 supporters of Howard McCrady (TROY), who was eliminated on the first ballot.
Casey Leads Hitch
The final tabulation of the presidential contest found Casey with 1229 votes and Hitchcock with 1*170.
Sharon Swanton (TRG, Unity) and Harry Merrill (All-U) will gather their forces for another try at garnering the senior class vice-presidency. Miss Swanton held a 54-vote lead over Merrill after their first attempt. The final count was 585 to 531.
The office of LAS treasurer is still being eyed by Stan Reichel (All-U) and Conway Leovy, Reichel having topped nis runoff opponent last week, 343 to 294. However, the race is wide open with a large block of 241 votes, representing third-place finisher, Charles Griffen’s supporters, looming as the deciding factor. Commerce Veep
Melvin Penner (All-U) and James Mitchell (TRG) will be on the ballot under the heading of Commerce vice-president. The form chart shows Penner with an initial lead of 277 votes to 235.
Ken Kruger (All-U) and Eugene Hougham emerged from a chaotic race for the office of Architecture president, leaving three other candidates behind, but not far behind. The 101 collective votes drawn by John Chapman, Jim Sink, and Richard Niblack nearly equalled the combination of Kruger’s 62 and Hougham's 47 and makes the contest a nebulous one.

dee, rose to a feverish controversy when Eisenhower was nominated by New^ Mexico (Long Beach State college).
Chief among the antagonists of this “irregular” move was SC’s California delegation with Lillian Stevens as chairman. The chair finally ruled the nomination valid, but the rumpus never did subside. It was redirected in the fourth balloting scramble between Kefauver and Douglas.
Other candidates in the Democratic race were Gov. Richard Russell (Ga.), Adlai Stevenson (111.), Sen. Hubert Humphery (Minn.), Sen. Brian McMahon (Conn.), Eleanor Roosevelt, and Averill Harriman, trouble shooter for Truman.

Confab Set
A special committee to study the 1952 Trojan Chest will meet this afternoon at 1:15 in 215 Student Union.
The six-man committee was appointed by tho ASSC Senate Thursday after Chest Chairman Ted Todd reported the 1952 drive, which raised only S3685, was a “failure.”
The committee will investigate what can be done to help the Chest, which supports such worthy charities as Troy Camp, or whether the fund-raising drive should remain for good as a “failure Reasons for the poor support accorded the drive also will be considered. A full report will be made at Wednesday night’s ASSC Senate meeting.
Members of the committee are Bob Erburu, DT editor and committee chairman; Chuck Kelly, IFC president; Bob Mitchell, AMS president: Larry Spector, Greater-University committee chairman; Tony Taylor, Homecoming chairman; and Todd.
Real Foe Claims Ridgway
TOKYO, May 12 (UP)—Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway leaves the Far East today to take command of the forces facing what he considers "the real enemy—Russia.”
The same elaborate military fanfare that marked Gen. Douglas MacArthur’s departure from Tokyo thirteen months ago will salute Gen. Ridgway as he flies to the United States en route to Paris. But the circumstances will be strikingly different.
Today he turns over the UN and U. S. Far East commands to General Mark Clark. Intimates say his parting hope is that the West will hold the line in Asia but that the United States will not become involved more deeply in a war with Russia’s Asiatic satellites on the Chinese mainland.
Ridgway will need little briefing on the high policy guiding
ing his week in Washington before departing for Paris May 24th.
In private talks with correspondents and other visitors here he has demonstrated an almost fierce personal agreement with Washington policy of limited defensive war in Asia and concentration of strength in Western Europe.
A careful soldier and diplomat, he never has expressed these convictions in terms of disagreement with Gen. MacArthur's views.
If there are any areas of disagreement between him and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, he has nevw given the public evidence of them.
Despite meteoric advancement and success both in combat and in political-diplomatic posts, Ridj£-way is acutely aware of his place as a military man in a democratic government. A large ingredient in his formula of success Is found in his familiar statement,
American and Allied strategy dur- “I am not a policy maker.”
