Clwice '68
College Students, it1 conjunction
with Time, Inc.'s Choice '68, may
have as direct a chance as they will
ever get to influence the direction
of national policy and national leaders
in next Wednesday's national col
legiate primary. In light of the fact
that by 1972, one-half of the elec
torate will be under 30 years of age,
no politician can ignore the impli
cations of a poll which will include
over 2 million college students.
Or more accurately, they cru1' t
ignore such a poll unless the stu
dents themselves do. As President
Johnson ru1d others have pointed out,
young people have a smaller per
centage of those who are eligible to
vote actually voting than any other
age group. This is perhaps in large
part due to the disruption caused by
military service and the difficulty of
voting by absentee ballot. But it i.s
also due to the fact that students,
whose interest in things political is
at its highest ebb during the collegi
ate years, are excluded from the
actual political process of balloting
for candidates and policies. A rem
edy to this problem would be lower
ing of the voling age to 18. But a
poor showing in Choice '68 would
harclly help the cause of lowering
the voting age.
lnsofar as many of the Presiden
tial primaries a.re non-binding pop
ularity contests (i.e., delegates to the
national convention are not bound to
vote for the man who won the pri
mary in theu-state), and that mruiy are quite unrepresentative (New
Hampshire, or even Oregon, is hardly
typical of the nation as a whole),
national sample of college student's
opinions on the candidates and is
sues could be quite as influential as
any regular primru:y.
The ballot for Choice '68 was
printed too early to reflect all the
by~antine changes which have oc
curred in the last several weeks.
The name of a dead hero and a with
drawn president 1·emain on the bal
lot in the persons of Or. Martin
Luther King ruld Lyndon .Johnson,
while Hubert Humphrey's name is no
where to be found. Reflecting the
earlier assumption that the Republi
can Convention would be open while
the Democratic gathering would be
a foregone conclusion, only three
Democrats appear in contrast to the
seven Republican names included on
the ballot.
The thl·ee referendum issues which
a~pear on the ballot reflect the two
overriding problems c on front i n g
American society. Two deal with
what course we should take in the
Vietnamese war and one polls what
priorities we should follow in deal
ing with the civil rights problem.
The choices are broad enough to con
stitute a fair referendum of student
feeling on these issues. The rep
resentativesness of those voting may
not. The ollly way to guar8lltee that
will be Ior all students on this and
othe1· campuses to turn out ru1d vote
next Wednesday.

Children's Games
The campaign for the U. S. presi
dency is w1derway on the LC campus
and already the kiddies have struck.
Campus car-owners awoke last Fri
day morning to find their bumpers
covered with an assortment of stick
ers proclaiming the greatness of
Bobby Kennedy . . . which is fine
for those who are already convinced
of the greatness of Bobby Kennedy. necty orgaruzauons claim ignor8llce
and we have no reason not to believe
them. That. means that either some
one from off campus got a little ex
uberant or _)>Omebody from one of the
other candidates' organizations de
cided to play fun games called, "how
to get everybody mad at the other
guy's candidate." In either case, the
whole thing is typically useless. If
we want a sticker on ou1· car, we
will be happy to see that it's taken
care of. But for the rest of you
please leave us a.lone. The problem is that they probably
already have a sticker and the rest
of us don't want one. The local Ken-

ASLC P,e,ident
Colin Tubb, ions heard, in order that we may effectively
tackle the new rrontiers of education and student
rights that have hitherto been underrated by the
majority of our students.
Students of Lewis and Clark:
The cruolal role that the Senate Academic Af
fairs Committee recently played in getting a pass
no pass g,ading system here at Lewis & Clark
shows that student government can be effective.
Presently, various members in our student lead
ership are working toward the Implementation of
a community government which would give the
students a coosiderabty larger role in deciding
educational and administrative policies oo our
campus. I suppQrt this move whol&-hearledly and
would continue to lead student government In this
direction If elected your Student Body President. ASLC Vioe Ptuident
R.icbs,d ll.,onmsn As a wefl-kno.....n person once proclaimed, "tt's
not what I can do for you, but what you can do
for yourself.''
I'm roonlng fo:-Vice President because I wart
to help you achieve your own "bag.'' I belim
that L&C can do better to inspire its studeds
to achieve their goals or ba.gs. t believe that~
effective Initiation of this inspiration should comt
In a large part by the actions of students worl<i"I
together. These goals can be defined as:
I feel that our student government should pursue
the frontiers or student rights and educational
reform In order to safeguard the student Interests.
I Point to the low scholarship rating Lewis and
Clark received from Dean Simmons' Cues
RepQrt -this Is the type of problem that st,,_
dent government should concern Itself with be
cause it Is so directly linked to the students.
I do not propose to make our student gover~
ment an exercise In over-organlzat1on, but rather
an exercise in things that countll 1 feel that we
should re..evaluate some of the requirements for
graduation from this college to see If we really
need all of them. A student should have more
responsibility in determining his education ln or
der that he may feel that he has more of a vested
Interest. I also feel that a student placement
center should be initiated In order to provkSe
more students with opport\lllitles to Interact In
the Portland Community. Credits should be given
for this toward graduation, for ii is In the true
interests of a. liberal arts education.
The curriculum Is another dimension of this
campus that I feel should be r&-evaluated for
student benefi.t. I think that the students have
several complaints In relation to shortage of
courses and their corresponding Quality-well, It
Is time we looked Into these complaints and got
something done.
Let me add that no student government can
be effective If there Is no student opinion to back
it up. If elected your Student Body President,
I would pledge myself toward making your oplr>-\ I go out these days,

Clwice '68
College Students, it1 conjunction
with Time, Inc.'s Choice '68, may
have as direct a chance as they will
ever get to influence the direction
of national policy and national leaders
in next Wednesday's national col
legiate primary. In light of the fact
that by 1972, one-half of the elec
torate will be under 30 years of age,
no politician can ignore the impli
cations of a poll which will include
over 2 million college students.
Or more accurately, they cru1' t
ignore such a poll unless the stu
dents themselves do. As President
Johnson ru1d others have pointed out,
young people have a smaller per
centage of those who are eligible to
vote actually voting than any other
age group. This is perhaps in large
part due to the disruption caused by
military service and the difficulty of
voting by absentee ballot. But it i.s
also due to the fact that students,
whose interest in things political is
at its highest ebb during the collegi
ate years, are excluded from the
actual political process of balloting
for candidates and policies. A rem
edy to this problem would be lower
ing of the voling age to 18. But a
poor showing in Choice '68 would
harclly help the cause of lowering
the voting age.
lnsofar as many of the Presiden
tial primaries a.re non-binding pop
ularity contests (i.e., delegates to the
national convention are not bound to
vote for the man who won the pri
mary in theu-state), and that mruiy are quite unrepresentative (New
Hampshire, or even Oregon, is hardly
typical of the nation as a whole),
national sample of college student's
opinions on the candidates and is
sues could be quite as influential as
any regular primru:y.
The ballot for Choice '68 was
printed too early to reflect all the
by~antine changes which have oc
curred in the last several weeks.
The name of a dead hero and a with
drawn president 1·emain on the bal
lot in the persons of Or. Martin
Luther King ruld Lyndon .Johnson,
while Hubert Humphrey's name is no
where to be found. Reflecting the
earlier assumption that the Republi
can Convention would be open while
the Democratic gathering would be
a foregone conclusion, only three
Democrats appear in contrast to the
seven Republican names included on
the ballot.
The thl·ee referendum issues which
a~pear on the ballot reflect the two
overriding problems c on front i n g
American society. Two deal with
what course we should take in the
Vietnamese war and one polls what
priorities we should follow in deal
ing with the civil rights problem.
The choices are broad enough to con
stitute a fair referendum of student
feeling on these issues. The rep
resentativesness of those voting may
not. The ollly way to guar8lltee that
will be Ior all students on this and
othe1· campuses to turn out ru1d vote
next Wednesday.

Children's Games
The campaign for the U. S. presi
dency is w1derway on the LC campus
and already the kiddies have struck.
Campus car-owners awoke last Fri
day morning to find their bumpers
covered with an assortment of stick
ers proclaiming the greatness of
Bobby Kennedy . . . which is fine
for those who are already convinced
of the greatness of Bobby Kennedy. necty orgaruzauons claim ignor8llce
and we have no reason not to believe
them. That. means that either some
one from off campus got a little ex
uberant or _)>Omebody from one of the
other candidates' organizations de
cided to play fun games called, "how
to get everybody mad at the other
guy's candidate." In either case, the
whole thing is typically useless. If
we want a sticker on ou1· car, we
will be happy to see that it's taken
care of. But for the rest of you
please leave us a.lone. The problem is that they probably
already have a sticker and the rest
of us don't want one. The local Ken-

ASLC P,e,ident
Colin Tubb, ions heard, in order that we may effectively
tackle the new rrontiers of education and student
rights that have hitherto been underrated by the
majority of our students.
Students of Lewis and Clark:
The cruolal role that the Senate Academic Af
fairs Committee recently played in getting a pass
no pass g,ading system here at Lewis & Clark
shows that student government can be effective.
Presently, various members in our student lead
ership are working toward the Implementation of
a community government which would give the
students a coosiderabty larger role in deciding
educational and administrative policies oo our
campus. I suppQrt this move whol&-hearledly and
would continue to lead student government In this
direction If elected your Student Body President. ASLC Vioe Ptuident
R.icbs,d ll.,onmsn As a wefl-kno.....n person once proclaimed, "tt's
not what I can do for you, but what you can do
for yourself.''
I'm roonlng fo:-Vice President because I wart
to help you achieve your own "bag.'' I belim
that L&C can do better to inspire its studeds
to achieve their goals or ba.gs. t believe that~
effective Initiation of this inspiration should comt
In a large part by the actions of students worl<i"I
together. These goals can be defined as:
I feel that our student government should pursue
the frontiers or student rights and educational
reform In order to safeguard the student Interests.
I Point to the low scholarship rating Lewis and
Clark received from Dean Simmons' Cues
RepQrt -this Is the type of problem that st,,_
dent government should concern Itself with be
cause it Is so directly linked to the students.
I do not propose to make our student gover~
ment an exercise In over-organlzat1on, but rather
an exercise in things that countll 1 feel that we
should re..evaluate some of the requirements for
graduation from this college to see If we really
need all of them. A student should have more
responsibility in determining his education ln or
der that he may feel that he has more of a vested
Interest. I also feel that a student placement
center should be initiated In order to provkSe
more students with opport\lllitles to Interact In
the Portland Community. Credits should be given
for this toward graduation, for ii is In the true
interests of a. liberal arts education.
The curriculum Is another dimension of this
campus that I feel should be r&-evaluated for
student benefi.t. I think that the students have
several complaints In relation to shortage of
courses and their corresponding Quality-well, It
Is time we looked Into these complaints and got
something done.
Let me add that no student government can
be effective If there Is no student opinion to back
it up. If elected your Student Body President,
I would pledge myself toward making your oplr>-\ I go out these days,
