The frature attraction of the 1948 Homecoming will be the game with Platte,..illc; at Goerke Field Saturday afternoon. So far, in conference play, both teams have lost three straight games, with the ~ointers losing .to Milwaukee, Supenor and Eau Claire and with Platteville losing to River Falls, Oshkosh and _Lacrosse.

Last year the Pointers added to a successful homecoming by drubbing .Platteville 26-0. The Pointers will be out there to repeat this feat and the Platteville agg regation wilJ be just as determined to smash the Qu:indtmen in revenge fo r last year's loss. Both teams will be fighting to gain a mark in the win column at the expense of the other.

The Pointers have scored 14 points while their opponents have amassed B, whereas Platteville has scored 18 as compared to 58 for their opponents.

The Quandtmen have been work­ing hird th is week to overcome some of the errors that resulted in fumbles fast week in the Superior game.

A large HoJl!ecoming crowd is ex­pected Saturday in what will prob­ably be the best game that the fans will have a chance to witness this year.

Other games in the conference this week wi ll find Mil\Vaukee a~ Eau Cb.ire, La Crosse at Stout and Su­perior at River FalJs.

Large Amount of Enthusiasm And Color Shown 'in Campaigns

CSTC really caught the camp:1.ign­ing bug this )'Car, The enthusiasm and color of this )'Car's class e lection campaigns far surpassed that of p re­,,ious elections. Some of the c:rn4i­da1cs could even show Oewe)' and Truman a few tricks.

The Freshmen seemed to lead in the number of .candidates and in the vo lume of c:impa.ign ad\'ertising. Though the sophomores and juniors ,,rere able to get their signs up in "highc-r places" (upper classmen) . the Frosh c:impaig n signs were much more numerous, practic:i lly covering the school and campus. ·

The candidates for freshman or­fices were: President, O:l\fid Case. Eugene Fick, David Van Hecke, Ken \'(fegc, Geo rge Zu kowski ; vice-presi­dent, Chester Polka, Richard Pro­men, \X'ill iam Skinner, Dick Span­genberg, \'(/i lliam \Vagner, Bill \'(/o r­zalla; secreta ry, Arlene Altenbcrg, Norm:1 Baxte r, Jer ry Scheel, D.1"id Varney; treasurer, Parr Eves, Bern ­ard L:iabs, Robert Lewis, Bruce Sturz!, Jim Pinkerton and Gerald Foster.

Sophomore candidates included : Presideqt, Edward Pliska, R:i lph Rob­erts ; vice-pres ident, P:itricia La­seckc, Ell iot Riggs; secreta ry, Rob­ert Frit sch, Robert Knu tson; tre:1s­urcr. Bill Bart.
