One Third Voted

The election in which only
about one third of the College
students voted, showed for the
first time in recent election history
a complete victory slate for
the Sceptre Society.

Mr. Calvert ran independently,
but with unofficial support from
the University Party. His campaign
was the most controversial
in that many complained of his
willingness to give up his seat in
the Student Council.

Mr. Broyles ran on the Skull
and Keys' ticket, but placed second
when the final votes were
tallied. Mr. Altaffer will now
serve on the Honor Committee,
and in most cases will act as
chairman.

Although Mr. Calvert entered
the race as an non-fraternity
candidate the election results did
not divide along fraternity-independant
lines. The results from
Tuttle House demonstrate that
the independent vote was split
fairly equally between the two
groups.
