OVARD ASSEMBLY TURNS INTO POLITICAL UPROAR
by Gene Williams Amid showers of confetti, cheers, jeers, cat-calls, and raucous strations, ASSC candidates were presented to about 1000 rabid
Ical followers at the final nominations assembly Friday In Bo-auditorium
din became so great and the remarks so pointed that at the the assembly ASSC President Al Wiggins soundly con-bed the procedure.
fThls has been a disgrace to the university and the student ’ he said. “If this type of attitude is carried to the polls, a worse than that of 1949 will result.”
Candidates for ASSC president, vice-president, and secretary
faspirants for yell king were introduced, and all gave campaign hes regrding their aims and purposes. ,
kSSC presidential aspirant John Bradley turned Bovard into what of a production lot when he was introduced to the crowd, monstration featuring drum-beating, sirens, and a marching ► immediately took place as a spotlight caught Bradley ascend-he stairs to the stage.
The marching group, wielding campaign banners, and numerous types of noise makers, toured the auditorium twice, accompanied by the cheers of Bradley adherents. A huge poster was brought on the stage booming Bradley and Don Scott, a yell king candidate.
This took place after Gene Royer introduced*Bradley, who spoke-second on the program.
Bradley opened his speech with the remark, “When is there time for a change?” He took a pot-shot at so-called “political patronage,” and urged the voters to follow their conscience when they go to the polls. He said that when the elections come around each voter will be in the booth by himself, unable to be touched by the 200 people who have already decided who is going to win the election.
Allen A. Arthur was the first presidential candidate to speak. The order of speakers was determined by “a coin-flipping orgy,” according to Wiggins.
Arthur opened his address by saying, “For those who don’t know
me, I am pictured in the El Rodeo as Chancellor von KleinSmid.” He enumerated his qualifications and said, “I have no political commitments. I have always played fair in student government”
Arthur also added that, “I am not and have never been anti-Row, but I am certainly pro-Unity.”
Fred Harper, victim of continued heckling from the audience, claimed that there were two trends of thought within the student body; one faction which was not taking the election seriously enough and another which was taking the campaign too seriously.
After Jack Colton introduced Harper, confetti rained for almost a minute, and a demonstration of cheers and band music took place. But, when the demonstration subsided, heckling began and continued throughout his talk. Shouts of “TNE,” “take the El Rodeo hack,” and various types of cat-calls were included in the heckling process.
Harper said he was seeking no support of any political party or group. He said a candidate is a complete hypocrite to accept backing and not give allegiance to this backing.
“I do not seek support from a segment of the university,” Harper said, “I want the support from the whole university.”
Wiggins presided over the assembly and prefaced his initial remarks regarding the importance of the assembly by saying, “Old politicians never die. they Just smell that way.” He introduced each of the candidates for yell king, and they all had a chance to stir up the gathering with a yell. The candidates include incumbent John Chapman, Don Scott, Stuart Cowen, and Leo Andrade.
Janet Ewart introduced the lone candidate for ASSC secretary, Lois Stone. Miss Stone stressed that she was running Independent of any political party and that she would work according to the dictates of her conscience.
Unity’s candidate for ASSC vice-president, Phyllis Anderson, was introduced by Bill Johnstone. She claimed that the social calea dar was just “fad'mg away.”
Amid drum-thumping and horn-blowing, Ann Dillon was introduced as a candidate for ASSC vice-president by Marie Tudor, president of Amazons. Her appearance brought down the house and broke the long calm over the assembly.
