Radio Tryouts Continue
Aspirants Compete For Place on Troy’s Ponliac Hour
Yesterday's auditions for Troy's NBC Pontiac hour, campus talent broadcast, concluded at 4:30 p.m., with a number of aspirants to place on the radio program having reported for their tryouts.
In order to give tryouts to all who signed for auditions and were unable to be present yesterday, Albert G. Miller, director of the program, announced that there will be further auditions today.
"Students who feel they nave talent and would like a chance to prove it, are invited to the auditions for today. We will be glad to hear them," Miller said.
Songs, readings, and a few skits comprised the hearings for yesterday. Several promising artists were among the broadcast seekers, according to Miller. Among these was Marian Jordan, soprano, who received a round of spontaneous applause from her fellow performers at the conclusion of her rendition of “You Are Free,” by Fritz Kreisler.
Tickets for the broadcast are still | available at the Student Union bookstore. Pontiac dealers in Los An-1 geles are also distributing them, Miller said.
Croup Forms To Draft Pollich
Junior Sludenl Says He Positively Will Nol Run for Office
In an effort to draft Gardiner Pollich, president of the junior class, into running as a write-in candidate for president of the Associated Students. Bill Quinn last night announced formation of an independent group "to supplant political puppetry with clean, democratic student government.”
‘‘Believing that the will of the student body for independent government was reflected in the acclamation accorded Pollich at the nomination assembly last Thursday, we are convinced that he is the students’ choice, and that he will carry out their mandate," Quinn declared yesterday.
SEEK PARTICIPATION ‘‘Professional schools, fraternities,
I sororities, and unorganized groups j alike seek more equalized partlcipa-[ tion, as well as recognition from campus activities,” Quinn said.
I Advised last night of the move-| ment on his behalf, Pollich admit-ed no knowledge of it and said he will absolutely refuse to have his name used as a candidate. ABSOLUTE REFUSAL "My desires tn the matter were set forth clearly last Thursday J morning," Pollich said, “and noth-I ing will now induce me to run.
"I will not sanction political meetings on my behalf, nor will I attend them."
Quinn, a prominent sophomore Lancer, nominated Pollich following Jim Hogan's acceptance speech in Bovard auditorium last Thursday. Pollich declined, explaining that he didn’t want to be president. Working with Quinn on Pollich’s behalf since that time have been Bob Rogers, Sigma Ghi, Chuck Nesbit. Kappa Alphn, and Bill Fisher, former president of SAE.
FAITH IN ABILITY "Since Pollirh's rejection last Thursday,” Rogers said yesterday, "student sentiment has becn forming in his favor, and we feel that j if drafted, he will not only agree to j run, but will capably fulfill the office of president.”
J The campaign will be conducted, Quinn said, in a series of informal ; gatherings at fraternity houses, to | be announced later. Sigma Chl and : Kappa Alpha are thought to be | likely locations.
