Student Senate Voices Hope ior Fair Balloting; Lists Procedure Rules
''A fair election la our primary consideration."
With this aim, aa expressed by Arnold Eddy, ln mind, the student senate last nlgbt discussed plana for tomorrow's re-votlng on ASSO officials, and amended and passed a report of a special committee on reorganization of elections.
Except for a brief outbreak during which Frank aruys and Tom Dutcher accused each other of “actions unbecoming of senate members," the meeting was uneventful and conoord prevailed.
BALLOTING DISCUSSED
Provisions regarding ballots, polls, counting of votes, campaigning, and deputy commissioners were included ln the report submitted by th* special committee, which met on March 31.
Amendments which provide that numbers be left attached to ballots after voting has taken place and that polling places be set up at th* county hospital to permit participation ln the election by medical students stationed there were passed by the group.
According to provisions of th* committee whose report was accepted, all members of the senate, excluding candidates' managers, will be deputized as members of th* elections committee, under the supervision of Dave Keller, commissioner of elections. They will be th* only individuals allowed within ths balloting area during the voting. Ballots will be counted by assistants In the office of the university auditor assisted by senate members. TO SEAL BOXES
To avoid the possibility of stuff ett or rifled ballot boxes, the boxes will be sealed within the voting area and must contain a list of all voters, the report states.
Ballots of different colors from those used ln the election of Msrch 30 will be printed for tomorrow’* voting and will be of six varieties, intended for th* College of Letters' Arts, and Sciences, th* Loa Angeles University of International Relations, the College of Pharmacy, the College of Engineering, th* sophomore class, and the ASSC. DRAW UP RESOLUTION
Nancy Holme, A88C secretary was Instructed by the senate to draw up a resolution voicing the senate's official disapproval of the March 30 election as the meeting concluded.
Trouble arose during th* closing minutes of the gathering when Frank Oruys, senior class president, accused his fellow senator, Tom Dutcher, of engaging ln unethical activities ln regard to campaigning.
DUTCHER, GRUYS ARGUE
In retaliation to this statement. Dutcher demanded an apology from Oruya and difficulties threatened until the two were quieted by Henry Flynn, chairman. They settled their dispute before leaving the senata room, however.
Another action of the student body officials was to rule both candidates for Los Angeles University of International Relations president, Maurice Baird and Claude Ross, eligible, althought both were technically ineligible. This was done to conform with request* of the International Relations student body members.
