Sims is a junior in the school of t arts and sciences- c Robert Hayes of Afullins then de- b feated Turnbull for the vice-presidency c by a slight margin. c Turnbull then expressed his appre-. t ciation to his supporters, and pledged his support to the victorious adminis- h tration. He said he would not be a candidate next February, as had been - rumored. Steven Hiott, \Walterboro. was made critic by acclamation, and Clarence Taylor. Columbia, was elected secre tary. W. K. Price defeated four op ponents for treasurer, and Lawrence Cusick and Monroe Fulmer were elec ted to the student board of publica- W tions. Eldridge Baskin was made a mem her of the student council, and Sid Duncan and T. E. Matthews were elected to the debating council by ac- a clamation. Phillip Winter was elected me sargeant-at-arms. toi The pyrotechnics began with nomi- col nations for monitors. Several men cie were put up, and Duncan rose. Se "Gentlemen, I am not going to make pla a speech," he said. "I have come to ap- col peal to your emotions. I have locked nel in the sanctums of my mind... sol "A man like that ought to be presi dent," IHoward Cooper declared near i the end of the eulogy, for "lIe is," Duncan replied, and nomi- a t nated Welhorn. to Chaos followed, after which the pr< president said: "All nominations are out now, and we are starting again." t" Gal Sims nominated the president again. tio Duncan got the floor to make another ,is nomination, but the exasperated presi- W dent recognized the opening words as the same used in his nomination .."1" speech, and ruled him out of order. Foster then filibustered on the point f of personal privilege to get the mem bers in serious vein. Ilis point was - questioned, but lie was allowed to speak. After Duncan again got up, Foster scanned the room and raised the point of no quorumn. The imembers were so relieved that everyone got up and left simultane ously. The election of monitors will be held next week, unless further con plications set in. --. w.. o.
