...noisy positions on the CIA, sit-ins and such. Not Vicky Drake. When they asked her what her platform was, the 21-year-old blonde breathed: "38-22-36." And that was about the size of it. A third-year language student, Vicky works between academic quarters as a topless dancer at various clubs around the San Francisco Bay area. For her campaign, she simply passed out posters of her nude self with the legend "Vicky for Pres." It was obviously the right approach for Stanford's heavily male (5-to-2 ratio) student population, which gave...
