Lethargic Democrats Despair While HYDC Holds 'Victory' Party

An atmosphere of convivial despair hung heavily over the Young Democrats "Victory" Party at Harkness Commons last night. The room was nearly filled with lethargic Democrats, who by 11 p.m. had even given up applauding for Democratic Senatorial victories.

Having downed two half-kegs of beer in and hour and a half, the milling participants tried to cheer themselves up further by telling each other, "We're not losing by much," and "We're bound to win somewhere." The most spirited reaction of the evening was a loud hiss for Republican National Chairman Leonard W. Hall who was televised singing "Our boy is bound to score."
