In the gallery of famous last words, one is conspicu ous by its tattered edges, its well-vocalized look. Profusely used as a conscience soother after final examinations and re search paper deadlines is the cliche, if only I had more time. That elusive element, time, is available right now. There are still three days in which to secure advertisements and patrons for the Opera booklet. You know you're going to the opera, and you know your friends are going. You know there are many poten tial patrons and firms which would like to advertise. Why put off asking them? The next 72 hours may characterize the benefit as a success or a failure. The decision lies just 4,320 minutes away and it will be voiced by YOUR efforts. Lower Voting Age For Strati; Ballot Women Voters Sponsor Presidential Choice You don't have to be 21 to vote this year at Mundelein, that is. The League of Women Voters will sponsor a straw vote Oct. 22 to determine which presi dential candidate the students favor. Registration will close tomorrow. Most ardent sponsors of the straw vote are two 19-year-old sophomores, Florence Clarke, who heads the Demo cratic group, and Yvonne Beaumont, leader of the Republican supporters. Both groups are distributing buttons, putting up posters, buttonholeing pros pective voters, and in general exciting wide interest in the campaign. Ardent students are visiting the Young Democratic and Young Repub lican headquarters to exchange ideas and to secure persuasive promotion. Mundelein arm chair politicians have, in the past, shown themselves to be Demo cratically inclined. The mock election of the 1948 Green-Stevenson race named Stevenson for governor, and he was again the choice in last year's Repub- locrat presidential convention. Committee heads are Justina Boyle and Rose Zingarelli. Responsible for ballots and all their accessories is Peggy Grandy, and Joan Dawson is in charge of publicity.
