T h e re will also be several openings for officers In terested in administration, per sonal and security, in conjunction with activation of the Niagara Frontier Unit. A meetit^ is sched uled for Monday, March 21st., at 8 p.m. in the 174th. National Guard Armory. Qualified Reserve Offic ers wh'o desire to become affiliated with the Volunteer Research Unit are requested to contact Com mander C. R. Keating, U. S. Naval Reserve Training Centar, 184 Con necticut Street, Buffalo (GA. 6995) to obtain applications. On March 23rd the Board of Managers will be elected by popu lar ballot and- on March 30th the Board of Manager officers will be chosen by similar means. However, this election will not be a “popu- lar]^ M lot if each student does not use his vote. There has' been a marked increase in sudent uncon cern towards campus elections as evidenced in the recent Prom Queen fiasco. *- A comparison of the number of votes cast in past Board of Man agers election with enrollment figures reveals that student parti cipation has been lees than 20%. BVen this low percentage is an im pressive increase over the number of students that voted in 1946, the first year of the ixistwar enroll ment bulge. In an Interview by the ARG'US, Dottle Haas, Director of Student Activities, told us that In pre-war elections at least 50% of the stu dent body cast ballots. '“The reason for student apathy towards cam pus elections,” said Miss'Haas “lies in the large post-war enrollment. Few students know many others and do not take the trouble to v^te for strangers.” ’This may well be one of the reasons; however, there Is another. The great mass of st^ents, the “man on the street” on the cam pus, seem to be under the impres sion that voting does no good. There Is a false Idea on this cam pus that cliques patronize and run elections and that these pressure groups decide the outcomes. This is true only to the extent that since these are the only students who vote they will naturally effect the election of their own candi date. ’Die ability of the Independent voter to remedy this situation is apparant in a consideration of the recent Snow King and Queen election. ’Their hibernal majesties were elected by a total of 112 votes; therefore 113 Independent students couid have enthroned anyone they wished to enter as a candidate. The freedom of expression of UB students is being gradually pilfered as a restilt of I^ a r g y towards campus - affairs. In the coming Board of Managers elec tion a referendum will be attached to the ballot, concerning, the re- - ^pective fates of the two campus newspapers. The individual stu dent CAN decide which paper he wants to continue to read by cast ing his vote for the journal of his choice. Any UB student who is carrying at least 12 hours of studies and has a Norton Union card is eligible to vote (veterans can pick up their cards at Hayes 139). Tbis year, for convenlanoa, tiiere 'wUl be five voting places on the campus, one In each of Ekyes, Foster, Crosby (CoBtfainad on Page 4, Celnui S)
