the coming meeting of the Model

MADISON, Wis., Jan. 8. - (BTNS)
-t Two years of agitation by the in-
dependents for a central polling place
was ended when the new elections
committee headed by George Hanpel,
independent, moved the polls from
their traditional location. Another
drastic change in the rules has done
away with transportation of voters
to the polls in cars and all election-
eering on the campus while voting is
going on.
