The total of 2864, termed unofficial because of a possible descrep- ancy of a handful of votes, indicated a record turnout. Former record was 2667 in 1949. Results of the gubernatorial and senatorial voting were mil avail­ able as The Hurricane went to press last night. Levey, a law school junior and twice president of Tau Epsilon Phi, - pulled 1628 votes compared to 1236 for Stone. The president-elect, contacted im­ mediately after the results were an­ nounced, said that he feels he no longer just represents his party. "I will strive to serve the entire University," he said, "and not any individual group. "Heading the Student Body Gov­ ernment is a taxing, difficult task, and one which cannot be accom­ plished only with the aid of the SAA. I will need the support of the en­ tire student body, and particularly the Liberty Forum party.

Stone, when called at his home, told a reporter that he will back Levey and the entire administration.

  • Vol. 34, No. 4 Tigers Fans Who Always Care July 2018 GETTING
    Vol. 34, No. 4 Tigers Fans Who Always Care July 2018 GETTING OUR HOPES UP – By David Raglin Yes, I know this is a rebuilding year. But going into the Reds series, we were only one game under .500, 36-37, and had a five-game winning streak. The Reds have the worst record in the National League, and that series was to be followed by what could have been a showdown with the Tribe. At least it would have been nice to reach and even surpass .500, even if only for a short time. After seeing Jeimer Candelario win the Mayo game in a walkoff against Cleveland while wearing my new “Candelario 46” T-shirt, maybe this team could… We all know what happened next. The Reds swept the two-game series in Cincinnati, the Indians swept three in Cleveland (even the most loyal U-M fan does not like dislike Ohio more than I do right now), and we blew a 4-1 lead in the pre-fireworks opener against the A’s as I was typing this. I guess it’s a good sign that this team has made me mad. They have been good enough to make me care not just about the kids, but about wins and losses. CATCHING THE BALL – By David Raglin One of the reasons the Tigers have been better than expected is the improved defense. All of the defensive measures have shown the Tigers’ improvement, but the stat we use most, Baseball Info System’s Defensive Runs Saved (DRS), shows how dramatic it’s been.
