(Photo by Parkman) One of the most spirited and hard-fought student government campaigns in the history of Stetson reached its peak Tuesday when over two thirds of the student body turned out,to vote. The combined officer slate of' Rob Oglesby, Angel Castillo, Kitty Morris, and Phil Seipp will fill the four top student government offices.

A 1960-vintage film, it was. the first effort by French director Alan Resnais, who, is perhaps more noted in America for his "Last Year at Marienbad." Based on a story by Marguerite Duras, subtitles (exceptionally good) by Noelle Gillmore, "Hiroshima" won the New York Film Critics' Award for the best foreign film,of the year.,-........ CENSORS & CANNES Although originally censored , by French government officials who'thought its anti-U.S. sentiments would harm Franco- American relations, the movie was finally shown at . Cannes where it took the Critics' Prize. The story is fragmentary, the time psychological, the mood at once tragic and beautiful. Typical of Resnais, he leaves his audience puzzled as to what exactly has happened, plot-wise, and awed by a feeling of absurd, almost noble, loneliness. The opening scene: in bed, a woman's clutching convulsively at a man's back. She: "You have wonderful skin" — and then a bright (radioactive) dust falls across the screen. It covers the two bodies and illuminates them. She: "I have seen everything in Hiroshima." He: You have seen nothing of Hiroshima." And thus the symbolism, unsubtle but powerful, begins. PEACE & SEX This picture is anti-war in general and anti-Bomb in particular. The action takes place in a 24-hour span in reconstructed Hiroshima 15 years after the^ war. She is a French actress who feels we've got to show the Japanese we're no longer at war,, that ■ we're friends, that we're ashamed we still have the' Bomb. Extramarital sex, according to her, is the only decent solution, especially if it's inter- ".cial. Complications set in and so les love, on the part of he: Japanese architect who met :r the night before, seduced :r the following day, and has iglected to tell her his name. Resnais' "Hiroshima Mon Amir," with its philosophical discussion of war in the bedroom, socms to be saying that we should embrace one another in love and renounce our powers of ultimate destructon, but that it can't be done. In a very real sense, what lias happened to Hiroshima has happened to (lie two lovers. Because of this, the shadow ot vi ar. memories falls between them and makes their love impossible. Wheler To Publish Dr. Paul Mowbray Wheeler, Stetson University English pro - fessor, has submitted the manuscript of a book on rules and principles governing good speaking and writing to publishers.
