ItllflK It Ollt.
iprevlrw of the fight was glvpn at the Thursday-hl nominating rnnvpntlnn when supporlrrs fnr fhwoman look slaps at the nthpr eandldatp In nnnt-itlni speeches.
ASSC Vice President Betty Metzger, who nomlnat miss Jameson, called her "underpubllcized" and nhiflzed that she wa.s a hard worker in student rnment but hadn't recplved much publicity. These irk* were an obvious slap at Miss Laird, who em-Ized a long list of posts she has held in student frnment as qualifications.
"Qualifications speak murh louder lhan publicity," SC Present Jerry MrMahon add«>d In serondln* s Jameson's nomination.
Miss Laird's barkers emphasized her experience. aenator-at-Large Davp O-ershenson, who nominated her, read a long list of qualifiedlnn$.
Possibly significant Is the fart that Miss Ulrd was nominated by Orrshrnson and snnnded b.v Junior fIan* President Jim Hurst, both of whom tverp to hr TRG candidate* this elertlon and who still hold a lot of rrsprrl In thp party.
No other Junior woman ha.s taken such an *e-tlvp interest In student government," Oershenson declared.
Anothrr «rronn na* (Iren*Miss Laird's nomination hy .Morris Mpadows, a good frlpnd nf TRG I lialrman Joe Cprrell, all of which tend* to glvp thp Impression that party Ipaders arp behind Miss Laird.
The nomination for the third oflice. ASSC secretary, went to Barbara Page, giving the Watchblrd 100 per cent accuracy on Its predictions for the top three
offices.
Also as predirtrd, both Al PI/.7,o and Larrv Knud-sen wcrp nominated for Yell King, with actual barking In he decided tomorrow night, t’onrelvably, TRG rouId run hnth men for the office, Just as It rould run both Miss Laird and Miss Jameson for vlre president.
However, the two-thirds vote required makes it highly unlikely that TRG will offer two yell-king candidates. Both women might possibly be run for the same office as a compromise measure, designed to prevent a party split.
Dirk MrAdon. who was arth-ely pushed as a candidate for the TRG presidential nomination, was put up for the spnlor rlass presidency Instead. Senior Class Prpsldpnt Sieve Robrrtson, who had hrrn harking McAdoo fnr th* ASSC presidency, seconded Grpg Taylor’s nomination for thp office, presumably to show unity In the party.
Other TRG bids wpnt to Mark Hurwlt*, AMS vlre president; Larry Sipes, Junior cla.ss president; George Young, sophomore class president; Rosemary Fank-hansel, sophomore cla.ss vice president; Mort. Schoen-hprr, LAS president; Susan Halv? and Barbara Irvine, education president; Connie Berg, music president; and Gary Wlddell, independent men's representative.
For the senator-at-large posts, where the Watrh-blrd's predictions didn't fare ton well, Don Singer, f'lunle Denholm, Sparling, Dartle Schaefer, Lyman Jnhnson, and Bernle Lerke were nominated.
Altogether, the party nominated 25 men for 20 positions. However, nominations may still be made up to balloting tomorrow night.
In the first acceptanre speech of the evening, Greg Taylor look a slap at rrltirs who earlier had rlalmed his motlvp In Joining TRG was In run for prpsldpnt. He strongly rmphaslrrd that hp didn't Join th.e party with that idea.
Taylor said he Joined the group to prove the university was not a house divided. Row against independent, and because it was the only party that "has the guts to be recognized."
He also added that at Ihp time he Joined, It sepm-pd as If Jim llursl nr Dayp Gershcnson would bp thp party's candidates, and hp had wished to bark them.
Taylor predicted that TRG would be attacked this coming election on the grounds of a one-party fflon opoly. Taylor Issued a call for the party to unite and said "our Job Is to go out and preach the truth."
Davis' nomination for the post was a hurried, • minute decision and he rould conceivably hr named tomorrow night as the party'» iamlidate fnr A Mb president, a post lift unfilled In last week’s ballnlliiR.
Extra spice was added to the convention by the detonation of a small bomb, possibly a large firecracker, Just inside the door. A large sign, bearing red and green eyes and the words "TNE Is Watching You,” was held at an open door for a few seconds by an unidentified group.
Motion pictures of the, candidates were taken by KlISC-TV personnpl, driving thp convention a professional air.
TRO is sponsoring a party open to all students at the Bit of Bavaria Hofbrau, 4375 South Western Avenue, tonight from fl to midnight.

< Two engineering professors are back at SC after working on a water problem that may someday save the middle eastern country of Iraq from desolation.
Dr. Kenneth C. Reynolds, head of the general engineering department, and Stanley S. Butler, assistant professor of general engineering, worked tn improve water conditions in the ancient land for nine and sixteen months, respectively.
Sent 'to Iraq's capital, Bagdad, on a Fulbright grant, Dr. \ Reynolds set up a fluid mechanics . laboratorj at the Bagdad Engineering College.
The scientist said that the importance of the study of liquids in motion and at rest is in connection with water supply for agricultural purposes.
Like Climate
Pointing out that Iraq's climate is similar to Southern California weather in relation to sparce rainfall. Prof. Butler said that “while immediate water needs are sufficient because of Und?rpopulation in the country, future expansion needs include increased water supplies."
Ragdad's average rainfall is only six Inches, Dr. Reynolds said.
He said that mnv» dams are needed and rivers have tn he di-i verted in order tn produce Increased amounts of dates, grains, and cotton. Butler added that Iraq, with approximately 5 mil-j lion population now, hopes tn reach 20 million in the near future.
Survey Water I .e\ 11
Prof Butlers work in the eastern country was In survey the nations ground water level, rainfall and river flow. Working for the Ralph M Parsons Engineering Company of l/is Angeles : through the United Nations Food and Agricultural Commission, he planned short and long range water-increasing projecls ' for Iraq.
; In the immediate view, Buller said that his work «as to train 1 men in actually working on the
water problem perform tests, collect data, and make estimates.
For the long range view, the SC engineering professor tried to lay out a program of data collection and of expansion, and to institute systems of analysts and procedure in water development in Iraq.
Dr. Reynolds' Bagdad laboratory will also be used in the study of oil and its flowing properties. This important industry furnishes ninety per cent of Iraq's income, Reqnolds explained.
Gsneral Engineering Head Dr. Kenneth C. Reynolds ha* a long past of experience to his credit. Before coming to SC, Reynolds taught civil engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and at Cooper Union in New York. H* also ha* been associated with private engineering firms.

DICKENS' HERO TO GET . NEW TRIAL TODAY IN FH
James H. Durbin Jr., Instructor in English, will read the trial from Charles Dickens' "Pickwick Papers" at noon today in 129 FH.
Durbin said he chose Dickens for his reading not only becaus« he is fond of his work but also because most of his own work Is In Victorian fiction.
In Pickwick's trial, the elderly gentleman is sued for breach of promise by his landlady. Even though he hadn’t proposed to the unattractive, fat woman he was found guilty. Because of the principal involved, Pickwick went to prison rather than pay a fine.
In “Pickwick Papers,” according to Durbin, Dickens unveils the tragedies of human life in his comical and satirical style.
Dickens made a tour of the US in 1842 for which he was paid *250,000. His frank criticisms of American democracy greatly offended the American people, Durbin said.	'	....________
