On the Stetson campus in the mock election Sen. Goldwater received about 51 per cent of the votes. In the Volusia County returns President Johnson received 3/5ths of the votes cast. Furthermore, the mock election on campus can not be called a perfect indicator of 'national preference since its' results were exactly- opposite to the returns in the state and national elections.. In the mock election Johnson- lost to Goldwater, 389 to 369, a margin of 20 votes. The Stetson results did not miss the Florida mark by:much however. Johnson received 51 per cent of the Florida popular vote and Goldwater took 49 per cent. Stetson's election correctly foreshadowed a close state vote and was within 2 per cent of the state tally. The mock election, however, was way' off in its indication that Holley would, gain a heavy Navy Slates Stetson Visit The Officer Programs Team .from the U.S. Navy Recruiting Station, Jacksonville, Fla. will be visiting the Stetson University campus today.

PR Director Speaks To Merchants "God has a place in. business everyday, and not just on Sunday," Fluker G. Stewart, Director of Public Relations at Stetson, told members of the. Christian Business Men's Committee at their regular weekly breakfast meeting Wednesday morning. "Just as it is vitally important that He be recognized in his rightful "place in the church, the home, on" the campus and in the community> God's presence must be recognized through the lives, words and actions of businessmen as they move through every hour of every working day," he said. Having joined Stetson on Sept. 1, Mr. Stewart • had spent the past 13 years in public relations with GENESCO in Nashville, Tenn.. GENESCO is the world's or of all : things people , wear, largest manufacturer - distribut- Started in 1924 as the Jarman Shoe Company,. to ■ manufacture the Freindly Five' Shoe for men, the company was founded by the late James Franklin Jarman, dedicated Baptist layman. Mr. Jarman believed that God should be an important part of business, and that employes should be given opportunities to achieve through God-given talents, and so recognized for their achievements. It was .this story, and its success which has built the Organization to -its present position of, leadership in business,- that Mr. Stewart was asked to relate to the Christian Business Men's Committee. The breakfast was held at the Calico Kitchen, with President Bob Gregory presiding. Mr. Stewart was introduced by Judson Cau- then. Mr. Stewart described the beginning days of the company, and the Christian principles up; on which' it was organized.- He pointed" out that the company has grown from an original group of 120 employes to almost 50,000 and from first year-sales of $l-million to approximately $600-million this past year. "Though the growth of.'. the company has been so outstanding,- the Christian principles upon which it was founded are still as strong today as they' were 40 years ago," Mr. Stewart said. GENESCO's Chairman Maxey Jarman and his' associates and employes are5 a remarkable group of people, all holding' fast to these important things. I know this as a fact, having enjoyed this GENESCO association, and would never have considered leaving this atmosphere for anything, less. Certainly the Stetson University community daily life and its every altivity is the same. God has a definite and important place in everything that happens at Stetson, and the administration, faculty and students reflect this, which I have seen as so vital to happiness and Christian success for all concerned."

Dr. Bailey opened his talk by stating that although the UN- has a dual role—one humanitarian, envolving its associated organizations, such as UNICEF and UNESCO, and the other political — as a forum for international security problesm; those 200 Attend Art Exhibit : More than 200 attended the opening,of the 15th Annual Exhibition of.Volusia County'Artists Sunday afternoon, according to Fred Messersmith, chairman of the Art Department at Stetson University. The Exhibition, held in the Sampson Hall Gallery of Art on the Stetson campus, is jointly sponosred by the University and the Junior Woman's Club of DeLand. It "will run through Nov. 29, and the gallery is open to the public from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays, and from 2 to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Mr. Messersmith points out that this year's show is the largest in the 15 years the Exhibition has been held—152 entries by 88 artists. First' place this year, goes to Duncan Hazel- wood, of Daytona Beach for his painting of "Adams County, Pa." Others with award winning paintings are: Gladys Blakeman, Daytona Beach, Genell Boozer, New Smyrna Beach; Laura E. Lock, Deland, and Frieda Stern of DeLand. • On Sunday afternoon, a tea was held in the Sampson Gallery, honoring the award winners and exhibitors in this years exhibition. Mrs. Gary Meadows and Mrs. Dana Fogle were assisted by other members of the Junior Woman's ' Club in planning and serving at the affair. The tea officially opened the Annual Exhibition of Volusia County Artists, and also was set to coincide with the opening of the National Celebration of American Art Week. Applications Offered For Student Work The business relations council of the Student Government in cooperation with the DeLand Chamber of Commerce, is presently -working, on a part-time employment-service for Stetson students. ■ • ■ ■' Council chairman, Doug Fogle, reports that employment application forms will be available today, in the SG office, and anyone wishing a' job should come by and fill one out. envolved with one facet may lose sight of the importance of the other. The UN has managed to last, with some-success, longer than its predecessor, the League of Nations. He enumerated the reasons for this, among which were the support of ' the U.S. and the importance with which the newly-independent nations view the organizations, which serves for many of them as their sole means of Internationa expression. However, he went on to state, for the UN/ to long continue its seem vitaliy necessary. Unlike our federal constitution,,' the UN charter -is- not very flexible. A two-thirds vote of the General Assembly, including, the votes of all the Security Council members, is necessary to ammerid it. Therefore, there have been no ammendments. Changes; according to Dr. Bailey, are vital owing to the following factor: the U.N. has expanded its membership greatly, has taken on many new functions, such as its peacekeeping operations, and the balance of power "has so shifted that the Security Council no longer represents the major powers of the world. As the complexion ,of the organization has altered, the Charter has not been able to change to fit these alterations. - Dr. Bailey went on to state that a showdown is coming on the serious fiscal problems that beset the organization due to the failure of some member-states to pay their assessments on the peace-keeping, operations. The most serious problem is posed by , the. situation of the Soviet Union, which is two years and 55 million dollars behind. Two, years - ago the International Court of Justice ruled that support of the peace-keeping operations, which is what the Russians refuse to pay, is not voluntary, but part of the regular budget. According,to Article 19 of the UN Charter, any nation two years behind in its payments is automatically suspended from the General Assembly. The showdown, thus, Dr. Bailey affirmed, is coming in the next session. He pointed out the U.S. fears that such a precedent— suspending a country who refuses to comply with a UN decison—may at a future time be used against it. It seems likely, however, that some stop-gap measure will be attempted to forestall an immediate showdown, but Dr. Bailey warned that the longer this issue and the others he mentioned earlier in- his talk are put off, the more difficult the operation of the organization will become. On this note, Dr. Bailey called for questions from the audience. After a short discussion, Richard Enstice, the, group's president, thanked Dr. Bailey for his interesting talk and adjourned the meeting. Big Weekend Ahead. Let's Swing, Greeks By JOHN DAVIS Fun and games started this Wednesday for the various and sundry Greek organizations on the Stetson University campus. All sorts of things have taken and will take place, both publicly and privately, for the Greeks and their dates since the events got underway this Wed-, nesday. First on the schedule was the selection of the Greek God and Goddess. Each sorority nominated a candidate for goddess on which the fraternity members voted and each fraternity nominated, their most attractive brother on which the sorority members voted. ' ' Thursday night the most handsome male and the most voluptuous young lady obtained the privilege to strut their goodies as the new god and goddness were announced at the Greek Week sing. This little event took place Thursday night in the common's circle. TORCHLIGHT Behind the glow of huge torches held by fraternity and sorority, presidents,; :the Greeksrwar- bled out golden -notes while- contending for a golden trophy. Immediately following this display of , verbal ability, after standing up for about an hour, everyone, with their tired tonsils and tarsals, meandered over to, the sorority apartments for a very crowded open house. Today comes the funny part. Upon the chalked fields of grass and dirt arrive the "toughest!*, ovalball. players of 'all time; the females. Dressed up in borrowed jerseys and surrounded by more than willing coaches, the sorority women all but kill each other in their annual powderpuff football games. They may not play the most coordinated football in the world, but they sure play the most sexy. All this is done in preparation for a semi-formal dance in Daytona only four hours later. COVER UP The limping,/bruised; cut women somehow manage to cover it all up with cocktail. dresses and aU kinds of make-up in order to either snow or be snowed at the get-together in Daytona. The fraternity men, filled with all kinds of "encouragement," ramble in with their dates, and stand around for about five minutes in tight collars and heavy coats. Then the goodies really start happening, for on the backs of chairs appear coats and in these chairs appear numerous ties, and on the floor appear the once well-dressed men and the once high-heeled women, moving their bodies in all sorts of pagahistic fashions. . Then, about'11:30, the men pick up their wrinkled coats, the women pick up their scuffed shoes, arid both take'their wrinkled bodies back to school. Then, after a good night's sleep of about three or four hours, the fraternity men have to run and jump, and it's bad news. OLYMPICS For around 12:30 Saturday those, who managed to get up that early have to either participate, in or cheer for the Grek Week Olympics. Those who can still move after Friday; night strip down to shorts, run ' slowly around the track and then all pshaw breaks loose. Guns are fired, people run, people jump, people throw, people yell and people toss cookies. Chariots are pulled and judged for beauty, a chariot race is held, then.it is all over. . A barbecue, given by and for almost all of the Greeks, will be held on fraternity row. This will be something new, and should prove to be quite an affair, as far as barbecues go. Almost all of the Greeks should end up with a full gullet. TROPHIES During this little feed various Elected To Post Dr. Mary Louise Gehring, professor of speech and chairman of the department of speech and drama at Stetson University, was elected vice president-elect of the Florida Speech Association, at the group's fall meeting in Hollywood, Florida. : In this capacity, Dr. Gehring will be responsible for coming programs of the Association. trophies will. be presented including one for the people that almost killed themselves in the Olympics, one for those who almost killed themselves in the Chariot Race, one of the most expensive, or beautiful, chariot, and finally one for the people" with the most melodious voices. After everyone has completely worn themselves out at the: Olympics, and • after' everyone has fully stuffed their gullets, the fraternities, will throw their houses open to the Stetson public. These parties will climax the Greek Week activities, followed by, on Sunday morning, a church service in Elizabeth Hall. Possibly the worst facet■-• of Greek Week is bestowed • upon the professors on Monday morning. Having to facie' the, red-eyed students, mere fractions of* human' beings, as they stumble info classrooms at 8 a.m. ' So,' off into the setting sun of history go the Greeks'of 1964 Greek Week, "... dragging-their tails behind them..."
