  • Editorial Page Republican Victory It's all over now. The storm and excitement of election day has subsided, and both political parties can pack away their hatchets for another four years. The Republicans have gone down in the greatest defeat of their existence. The primary reason for this, especially in 1964, seems to be their total lack of party unity. With Goldwater the age-old traditions and basic principles of the Republican Party were usurped and distorted. The trust that the American peoples had placed in the party was destroyed. The senator from Arizona had his chance. And fortunately for the Republicans, he failed. It is fortunate because now the party can begin to build again. It has to build again. Our government cannot stand on a one-party system, and our hope for continued democracy lies in the hands of the Republican Party. During the coming four years the party of Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt and Dwight Eisenhower can rebuild itself. It has been seriously damaged, but with the leadership of such men as Cabot Lodge, Scranton and Rockefeller the Republicans can once again be deserving of the confidence of America. Supposedly everyone must be burned a bit before they can grow. The Republican Party has been burned. It has reached its lowest ebb. It has nowhere else to go but up. With Goldwater out of the way, the road is clear for the reconstruction. No one knows what will happen in 1968. But we can bet that the Republican Party will not repeat its mistake. Goldwater is gone now. He's "closed the magic door and moved away." We pray that the door stays closed. Football Spectacular The football game between Western Carolina College and Elon was probably the most spectacular gridiron experience that our school has experienced in many, many years. It was the kind of sporting event that we often read about, that we often dream about, but that we rarely ever see. Many of us ask ourselves how did it happen? Was it real? Did we really see it? It was real, and we did see it. Our Catamounts were superb. They performed with skill and fire. It almost appeared as though the team was driven by some unique and invisible force. The victory was overwhelming and deserved. For us, it was a tremendous emotional moment. For many undergraduates it was the last football game of their college career. And it left a distinctly wonderful imprint of the closing of our college life. At the end of the game, when the band played the Alma Mater, every word of Mr. Bird's lyrics tugged at the remembrance of our affection for Western Carolina. Thank you, Catamounts.

Morgan G^water Personally. I th'uvK \J»m«*y Ho«a shouU >W« been •lecta.j The National Scene Two Party System Wins The election of 1964 is history now. It went pretty much as expected throughout the nation. The Republicans were soundly trounced, and the Democrats are claiming the victory as a mandate for their program. This was a precedent-shattering election. A number of records were set, and everyone is placing his individual interpretation of the results. A lot of people go along with this mandate idea; some declare the results to be a fatal blow for the Republican Party. But I see this election as a great victory for the two- party system in this country. This may be a little difficult to see. But first of all let's analyze the nature of our By Neal Evans political parties. The two parties in this country are moderate, middle-of-the-road groups that differ very little in basic programs or platforms. They both have their fringe groups to the Right and the Left that ordinarily offset one another. In this way we have two parties that both reflect the thinking of a majority of Americans at the same time. Due to this fact, radical changes are very rare in the United States. Half of the electorate doesn't blow its stack and revolt if it gets defeated. It's not too difficult to live under an administration you oppose. And one administration doesn't c o m- pletely reverse policies as we are seeing in England right L ime I By Thad C Several weeks ago I wrote a column in which I asked for more campus activities on the weekends. In this week's column I want to commend somebody for taking a pill" and actually getting some of these activities for the ones who are left in the Middle of the Least on weekends. Of course, a number of people are responsible for finally getting the activities, and the purpose of this article is to mention a few of the scheduled occurrences and congratulate the ones responsible. First of all, congratulations to the football team and band. Although they are not playing this weekend, they have provided entertainment for those left here on campus several past weekends and deserve our respect. Too many times, we gripe about nothing to do on weekends and at the same time forget that the football team is battling it out almost every Saturday night of the fall quarter. Of course, the team does not always play in the Valley of the Lilies, but when it does, we are grateful that they provide us with something to do. Secondly, congratulations to the Student Union. I see that Mr. Wood is making Saturday night movies possible In Joyner Building. This will be a place for people to date who are left on campus and have no car, and consequently, nowhere to go when i.ghi . Roberts there are no ballgames, or for those who happen to enjoy movies more than ballgames. Now, with Hoey, there are movies both Friday and Saturday night, and you don't even have to go all the way to Sylva, Waynesville, or Asheville to see them. Thirdly, both Friday and Saturday nijjht of this week the Little Theatre's production of BUS STOP will be featured. The cast and technical crew have devoted many long weeks working this play into shape and they deserve our attendance. The performances are for us, the students, and we should support the Theatre and have packed houses both nights. BUS STOP is a light comedy and, judging from past Little Theatre successes, should be a perfect way to spend one evening either with a date or friends if you are remaining in Cullowhee Friday or Saturday night. This may sound like a very trite, patting-on-the-back column. It is! Too many times we are ready to condemn, especially in these columns, and often not ready to commend. To the people who have worked for these and are working for future activities on weekends I offer my thanks and congratulations. Perhaps eventually we students will find that the college does not convert to a mausoleum on weekends after an. now. The Labor Party is planning to renationalize the steel industry after it had been denationalized by the Conservatives after labor had nationalized it. Usually we see the two A- merican political parties choosing Presidential candidates who follow the middle road. This had been true until this year when the Republicans reached into their Right wing for Barry Gold- water. Tuesday of this week the nation rejected this innovation in an unprecedented fashion. The American people are used to moderate pro- gressivism, slow progress but a little every day. They don't like the idea of four years of sharp liberalism and then four years of staunch conservatism. I feel that this is what the voters wanted when they chose Lyndon Johnson by such a tremendous majority. And here we can see a "mandate," but this mandate is for the Republican Party. They are going to be forced back into the middle of the road if they are to t nn in the future. This they can do and should be in good shape by 1968. Other victories for the two- party system center around the successes that both parties had in sections and states that are ordinarily one-sided. For the first time in history two states that have always voted for one party in the Presidential elections switched. Georgia, which had always voted Democratic, appeared this time in the Republican column. And consistently Republican Vermont voted Democratic. The traditionally Democratic "solid South" gave Barry Goldwater and the Republicans five states. At the same time the West and the Midwest with strong Republican leanings went for Johnson. This should give both parties powerful incentives for strong organization in every state, not conceding a single state in the national or local elections of the future. The benefits to one-party state governments will be inestimable. The incumbent party will have to keep on its toes realizing that the next election might be defeat. So let's quit talking about mandates and fatal blows. Let's recognize the preservation of the traditional concept of our two-party system.
