The light ballot came as a surprise to the hill politicians who were expecting a heavy vote in the fight between the Pachacamac and P.S.G.L. parties for control of the Men's Student Council. Several of the older politicians expected the total vote to
CAA to Start Cross Country CourseNov.29
Applications for enrollment in the Civil Aeronautic Authority's cross country course to be started Nov. 29 are now being taken at the aeronautical engineering office, it was announced by Kenneth Razak, aviation ground school instructor, this morning. Deadline for applications is Nov.15.
Students applying must have written recommendations from Razak here before going to Kansas City for personal interviews with George R. Mahncke, C.A.A. regional representative for this district.
The cross country course is a full time proposition, Razak warns, and necessitates the dropping of all other University work. It is essentially a course in navigation practice including 120 hours of ground school and 40 hours of day and night flight training.

The usual last minute calling by the two party headquarters to check and see if their party members have voted will probably lead to a rush just before polls close.
The vote in the women's election was light today also. At the women's poll in the basement of Frank Strong hall only 72 ballots had been cast at 12:30 p.m.
The count on the men's vote was 107 at the poll in the basement of Frank Strong and 74 at the poll in the basement of Marvin hall.
