$4,000 Goal Set
For Orphanage
(Photo by Gaifield)
IORPE HALL resident assistants were auctioned off last
ight as part of the dorm's effort to raise money for the
lorean Orphanage Drive. Each room had a chance to bid
Ir its resident assistant's services which includes cleaning
[e room for Homecoming open house. Being auctioned off
Gary Maatta is Michael Salisbury, Mulliken sophomore.
This weekend marks the eighth annual Korean Orphanage fund-raising drive that has been organized to give
continued support to Central's self-adopted orphanage in
Mun San, Korea.	
According to Christina Traver, Korean Orphanage Committee president, the goal for
this weekend's drive is $4,000.
This money will be used to pay
the balance of the cost of a
hotel purchased this year as
living quarters and for the
general support of the orphanage.
Since 1959, $13,300 has been
raised for the care of the 72
Korean orphans. This total includes an all-time high of
$3,300 netted in last year's
drive. Much of this money was
used for payments on the 60-
acre farm, for the purchase of
a used truck for transportation
and for food, clothing and
medical supplies.
The number of orphans
grows from year to year and
a bigger percentage of the
yearly donations must go toward individual support and
day to day care of all the orphans.

'Who's Who' Elections
Reveal Campus Leaders
AH YES . . . The season changes ... the leaves fall . . .
but the parking tickets continue. Chief photographer Crcag
Gaffield caught the mood with this double exposure.
Tuesday elections for Who's
Who and Senate in off-campus
districts 1, 2 and 12 will be
held from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The 36 seniors who are elected to Who's Who will be listed
in Who's Who Among Students
in American Universities and
Colleges.
The seniors will be elected
on the qualities of leadership,
cooperation in education, extracurricular activities, general
citizenship and promise of usefulness.
Senatorial elections are being held in districts 1 and 2
because there was a tie during
the regular Senate elections
and they were declared "no
contest" by the election committee.
In district 12, only one vote
was cast and the person voted
for was declared ineligible because he wasn't a resident of
the district.
Student Body President Bob
Ballard said, "I hope the off-
campus students in these districts realize that voting for
Senate is not a joke. Our first
meeting of Senate Monday was
very productive and there is
plenty of work for Senate to
do during the semester.
"And to be elected to Who's
Who is a great honor and the
student body should show an
interest in who will represent
their campus in the national
listing," he added.
Sophomores, juniors, seniors
and faculty members are eligible to vote in the Who's Who
election. Nearly 100 campus
leaders have been nominated
to the ballot by social, service
and scholastic campus organizations.
All fulltime students in districts 1, 2 and 12 can vote for
senators in their districts.
Activity cards must be presented at the polls in the
dorms, University Center and
Warriner Hall.
