United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright Australian Press Association

LONDON, 27th October. The 'Glasgow University rectorial election resulted : —Mr Baldwin, 1044 ; Mr Cunningham Graham, Scottish Nationalist, 978; Sir Herbert-Samuel, Liberal, 396; Mr Rosslyn Mitchell, Labour, 226. Women’s votes turned the scale in favour of Mr Baldwin after the intervention of a Nationalist group, and gave unexpected interest to the election. Sixty thousand rotten eggs, thousands of cods’ heads and other “ammunition” were expended during the election, combatants being dressed in boiler suits and football attire.

Women ■ students polled at a booth some distance from the battleground.
