Harvard Students To Vote on Divestment From Israel in Inaugural HUA Election Survey
Freshmen will cast ballots today to choose their Jubilee Committee of ten from a field of 53 candidates. Voting will be held at the Union at lunch and supper, and at lunch at Dudley. The Union Committee will tabulate the votes starting at 7:30 p.m. tonight.
Last night marked the end of what Borden F. Beek, Secretary of the Union, termed "the most colorful Jubilee campaign in the history of the Union." Over 300 Yardlings turned out to hear a balled singer and guitarist, to ogle at an ape eating in the dining room, and to enter raffles for a corsage and candy.
Andrew W. Hirshberg '48 sang a series of Western ballads, accompanying himself with the guitar. Between songs he inserted plugs for his sponsors, candidates Paul S. Dollin and Leonard E. Reisman. His performance was only slightly interrupted by the cavorting of a large brown monkey bearing the sign of Murray Budabin on his back.
Two different raffies were held. One was conducted by David M. Hersey, and offered a corsage to be given to the winner's date at the Jubilee. The other was staged by candidates James B. Adler and Stuart H. Trott, who awarded a jar of gum-drops.
The appetite of 80 of the freshman had previously been satisfied, however, by 15 gallons of beer at an afternoon cocktall party given by candidates Otto F. Grote, Stephen R. Rubel, John Kean, and Wolcott H. Johnson.
