University Party
Elects Officers

About 50 members of the University
Party met Monday night
to elect officers and to make rule
changes, including the elimination
of proxy voting.

Randy, Ross was elected president;
John Buffington, vice president;
Don Lewis, secretary; and
Ron Cass, treasurer.

In addition to eliminating
proxy voting, which proved troublesome
at the last meeting for
nominating Student Council candidates
and brought calls for its
abolition, the party, members decided
to institute a new system
for the nomination of Student
Council candidates.

They also decided to provide
legislative assistants to aid Student
Council members in research
for Council matters.
