MILFORD SCHOOL NEWS | A few weeks ago Joellen Me Clintic and Judy Dippon received firsts in the district twirling con- | test and went on to the state contest, again receiving f irsts, as was ; noted elsewhere in this paper. j The number of trophies which these girls have won is really tre- > mendous. Judy has won 29 troph- 1 ies and 50 medals. Joellen has won 73 trophies and 60 medals. As November 6 is election day and talk of politics is flying thick and fast, I-thought, the results of the “political preference survey” might prove very interesting. The choices were (1) Republi- J can, (2) Democrat, (3) none. 1 There were two juniors and one freshman who said they were for “the best man.” One freshman professed to be for “the honest crook.” With the state politics are in today, that person may be more intelligent than his answer implies. Not to be outdone, the senior class which can always be counted on to come up with a new and different answer, came up with three clowns who declared their politics as Communist, Bolshevict, and National Socialist .Worker. The Republicans came up with a total of 134. This total is compiled of 18 seniors, 19 juniors, 19 sophomores, 21 freshmen, 36 Bth graders, and 21 7th graders. The Democrats added up with a total of 73. Acknowledging to be Democrats are 6 seniors, 11 juniors, 15 sophomores, 14 freshmen, 14 Bth graders, and 13 7th graders. Those who claimed no political party number 43. In this number

l are 1 senior, 2 juniors, 6 sophomores, 13 freshmen, 10 Bth graders, and 11 7th graders. Some may think that we are too i young to think seriously about politics. Those people should lis- . ten to some of our discussions in, 1 as well as out of, the class room. They would be in for a rude aj wakening. I wonder how many of the kids who answered this poll really know what their chosen party stands for. How many of those kids, as well as adults, vote Re-| publican or vote Democratic, just because their parents or friends ! do ? One should choose a political I party because he feels that that j party is best equipped to give him ■ and the people of the United States what they need and want. One shouldn’t choose politics as he does shoes, either for comfort or style. SENIOR OF THE WEEK RONALD CONKLIN BROWN Ronn is the son of Glenn L. and June C. Brown. He has brown hair and brown eyes.
