CAMPAIGN LITERATURE:
Poltical Scientists To Exhibit British Election Material

Exhibit To Open Tomorrow

By NANCY BYLAN"
"Vote for a FREE LIBERAL, not
one that's been NATIONALIZED
into a Tory stooge."
This slogan and others on pos-
ters greeted the Battersea voter
in the last British elections.
* * *
THIS AND OTHER campaign
literature of the elections will be
presented by the political science
department in a unique exhibit
at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow in Rm. 3R-
S of the Union.
The exhibit, which traces the
British election step by step in
terms of its newspapers, pamph-
lets, handbills, posters and par-
ty literature, consists of material
brought back from. Great Britain
by Prof. James K. Pollock, Prof.
Lionel H. Laing and Prof. Sam-
uel J. Eldersveld, who traveled
there to view the election first
hand.
Prof. Pollock stayed in Battersea
and toured London, while his col-
leagues went to Birmingham,
Manchester and Scotland.
The material on display tells the
story of the British elections from
the time of the first announce-
ment to the publication of the fin-
al results.
THE STORY BEGINS with the

posting of bulletins on trees and
telephone poles 20 days before vot-
ing. Nomination papers are then
circulated and the candidate has
to submit his written consent to
his nomination. This precaution

prevents his withdrawal from the
race.
Lists of persons nominated for
all candidacies are then publish-
ed. Like the ballots themselves
they contain no mention of par-

ty affiliations of the candidates.
The various parties next launch
their canvassing campaign. Later
at the polls they maintain a poll-
ing check sheet. This is used by
pcl watchers to check off electors
who have voted. Upon casting his
ballot, the voter.surrenders his cf-
ficial poll card to the poll watcher.
Then a list is sent to each party's
headquarters so that the party can
get last minute stragglers to the
polls.
EXPLICIT VOTING directions
are placed at each voting place.
The day after the elections the re-
sults are publicly posted.
In addition to the actual cam-
paign material, the exhibit also
contains headlines on the elec-
tion and the various campaign
issues from several of the British
papers and election articles from
the British magazines.
Among the party pamphlets are
campaign guide books issued for
the guidance of party speakers,
giving complete coverage of all is-
sues likely to come up in the cam-
paign.
The exhibit was first set up for
the Conference of Midwest Politi-
cal Scientists, April 22 and 23.
Delegates to the coiference prais-
ed the exhibit as a unique ,collec-
tion, according to Henry L. Bret-
ton, of the political science depart-
ment, chairman of the exhibit.

ical director of the Menninger
Foundation at Topeka, Kan., will

For Weekend
"Volpone" a 340-year-old come-
dy by Ben Jonson will be presented
by Theatre Guild at 8 p.m. Friday

torium.
A scalding comment on human
avarice, "Volpone" is nevertheless
high-spirited entertainment, ac-
cording to the Guild's president
Harvey Stuart, '50.
* * *
ITS MALICIOUS villian, Vol-
pone, extracts gifts from his
greedy friends by pretending to be
dying and promising to bequeath
his fortune to each of them. He
plots so that he can watch his
friends debase themselves in their
desire for money.
Volpone will be played by Len
Rosenson, '50, who is also di-
recting the play.
Rosenson was in charge of a
company which toured Europe
with a production of "Volpone."
In addition, to working in summer
stock, he has been seen profession-
ally in the Broadway production of
"Mr. Roberts."
Rosenson has played Ann Arbor
in "Murder in the Cathedral,"
"Orphee," and "No Exit."
THEATRE GJILD is using a
special Stefan Zweig adaption of
Jonson's comedy which has proved
successful in New York, Los An-
geles and many European capitals.
