His Man Won 808 "I'M FOR IKE" YOUNG Ike Wins Mock Election With 516 Campus Votes President Eisenhower swept to victory in mock presidential elections at Loyola Wednesday, taking 71.9 per cent of the 722 student-faculty-staff votes cast. Ike took 516 votes to Democrat Adlai Stevenson's 201. Two students cast write-in votes for states-righter T. Coleman Andrews, and three others sought notoriety by writting "Sluggo" on the ballots. This bettered considerably Ike's percentage in carrying the campus before the 1952 elections with 62.8 per cent of the total vote. The mock elections were sponsored by the Student Council with assistance by the Young Republicans' Club and Students' Democratic Association. The '52 polling was sponsored by The Maroon and the National Federation of Catholic College Students. The elections climaxed six weeks of campaigning by both campus political machines, featuring addresses by candidates for the Louisiana Second Congressional District seat and addresses Monday" by Bob Young, campus GOP leader, Ronald Fonseca, Demo campus president, and Matt Schott, a reputed "independent for Ike."
