STUDENT COUNCIL ELECTION BALLOTS FOUND INADEQUATE

Through an oversight the names of the five present members of the Student Council from the Junior Class were omitted from the ballots now being filled out for the election. As a result, the five men, three of whom were the first elected to the Council from their class, will not be members of next year's Council. Since three men will be appointed at the first meeting of the newly elected board, some of these men may serve by appointment.

Letter Calls Attention to Fact

Realization of the condition was first made when an anonymous letter was received by the CRIMSON stating that the writer would like to vote for some of the men now on the Council. At first it was thought that those in charge of the election had neglected to place the names on the ballot, believing that the men elected and appointed in the Sophomore year automatically remain as members of the board. Since the constitution of the body illegalizes such a procedure, the matter was investigated further, and it was found that the members of the committee were aware of the mistake, but had decided not to recall the ballots and renominate the present members as is the usual case.

The ballots have all been mailed to the members of the classes and returns are supposed to be made by tomorrow. Seven men are to be chosen from the Class of 1931 and three from the Sophomore Class. The board will elect three additional members of the Class of 1932 and two from the Junior Class at its first meeting. Since the Juniors now serving on the Council were the ones first chosen by the third year men, it would not be surprising if some, at least, of the appointees are chosen from this number.
