Research Council Poll Queries State Voters

In an attempt to analyze Tuesday's election results, the New England Research Council, with the aid of University students, yesterday began polling the fourteenth congressional district of Massachusetts, in order to determine the various reasons--ranging from whether to personal friendship with the candidate--why John Doe did or did not vote.

Made up by Jerome S. Bruner, visiting lecturer on Psychology, and Professor Dorwin P. Cartwright of the M.I.T. Psychology department, both of whom spent the war in Washington doing public opinion work for the Government, the 34-question poll will examine public interest in the recent election and also attempt to ascertain the affects of various kinds of campaign publicity on election outcomes.

Need of more student canvassers for today's and tomorrow's polling was announced last night by a spokesman for the Research Council. The parties leave for the fourteenth district at 9:30 o'clock from the Psychology Clinic and at 6:15 in the evening from Little Hall.
