Luminaries Not Able To Answer Irking Question By MICHAEL KARVELAS A seemingly insignificant, bt nevertheless troublesome probler has cropped up with the recent] completed elections. The question--"when will It newly elected officers assume the duties, in the summer or in ti fall?"-appears destined to remai an unanswerable enigma.

What will happe when a newly-elected class pres dent decides to vacation his sun mer near the wilds of Clemson (fc some inane reason) and come bac In the fall? Who, if anyone, wi assume his presidential duties? When approached by your intr p.1d reporter, sonic of the candidat( (exhausted by this time by the ba tie of ballots) shrugged their shou ders and replied: "Who knows, wil cares?"

As president of the sti dent body, he answered: "Frankil I don't know. This won't he a re ular summer term, and as far as know, the new officers won't be r< quired to meet till September.1 llow ever, that will be left up to the ol fieeri themselves to decide." In response to our query. Pres dent Smith exclaimed: "llow am expected to know, when our ow students in the student body aren acquainted with the' fats" This i a problem they will have to solv for themselves."
