BABSON SUPPORTERS STAMPEDE BUNNY POLL; MORGAN GLOATES

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

"Hie, hie, hooray!" chortled Henry H. Morgan '41, president of the Leverett House Babson Club, as the returns on the Dunny presidential poll came in last night. And well he might, for his pressure group for the Prohibitionist candidate piled up more votes than the combined total of both the major parties.

Out of 183 votes, cast, Willkie received 44, Roosevelt 87, and Babson 89. Norman Thomas polled eight votes and John Zahnd of the Greenback Party had one supporter, while four were undecided.

Terrorized by the fiery zeal of the Babsonite campaigners, the Leverett tutors refrained from voting and will take their own count today. Meanwhile Morgan and his men are celebrating their victory amid prophecies of a similar "spiritual reawakening" of the entire student body.
