Newly Elected ASC Won't Be Seated Tonight
The newly elected All Student Council representatives will not be installed at the A.S.C. meeting tonight. Melvin Clingan, A.S.C. president, said the new Council will not be installed for two weeks and possibly a month.
James Logan, newly elected president of the A.S.C., said Monday the new members would like very much to take over at the meeting.
Clingan said that the constitution says that new members must attend a few meetings before they are sworn in. Last year, the new Council, elected on April 19 was sworn in May 3. The old Council had a regular meeting and then swore in the new members.
The Constitution of the A.S.C. states in the chapter dealing with tenure of office:
Section 2. Apprenticeship Membership.
(a) As soon as the new Council has been completely selected it shall meet for the purpose of electing officers. Members shall then begin their regular attendance at All Student Council meetings as apprentice members to the already existing Council and continue to assist the business of the Association and shall in addition make every effort to educate the new members as to their duties and as to Council procedure.
(b) After no more than four meetings and before the end of the spring term the new Council shall be inducted and shall assume the powers and responsibilities vested at all Student Council by the Constitution.
L. C. Woodruff, dean of men, said that it has been the practice in the past to have the new members sit in on one or two meetings and take over after that. Dean Woodruff said that in theory the installation could be postponed until the end of the school year.
Biochemistry Men To Attend Meeting
Four University professors of the biochemistry department and two graduate students will attend a meeting of the Federation of American Societies of Experiment Biology in Cleveland from Monday April 30 to Thursday. May 3.
Dr. R. C. Mills, chairman of the department; Dr Dwight J. Mulford, associate professor; and Dr Harold W. Barrett and Dr Harold J. Nicholas, assistant professors, will be accompanied by Robert L. Hills and Robert Hiltibran, graduate students.
'Big Toot' Welcome Set For Mac
Hamlets and cities throughout the nation will blow whistles, wave flags, and fire salutes when Gen. Douglas MacArthur sets foot on U.S. soil for the first time in 14 years tonight.
In San Francisco officials asked residents to blow horns and factory whistles and ring church bells when MacArthur's plane lands.
New York promised "one of the biggest demonstrations in history" when the general arrives Friday. All estimated 4 million persons, half New York's population, are expected to line the streets while MacArthur rides through a rain of ticker tape. Pacific Mayor Vincent Impellitzer proclaimed Friday 'MacArthur day' and ordered that his palate he greeted with a 17-gun salute, four ruffles of the drum, and four bule flourishes.
In Washington, where MacArthur
At San Antonio, Texas, where MacArthur went to high school, Mayor Jack White proclaimed that all flags be flown today and that every factory whistle go off at 3 p.m. In Milwaukee, which MacArthur still considers his legal residence, rifleman from an American Legion post planned a 19-gun salute. The Association of Commerce asked for bell ringing and horn blowing.
Attorneys Claim Regent's Position
But the big cities had no monopoly on welcome. MacArthur supporters at Mattoon, Ill., set the pattern for smaller communities by making plans for a torchlight parade and distributing 3,000 lapel buttons saying "Welcome Home, General MacArthur."
will go before congress Thursday to tell his side of the controversy on Far East policy, an aide said President Truman would not be at the airfield to greet the general. The President will be represented by his military aide, Maj. Gen. Harry H. Vaughan.
Topeka, (U.P.)—Two attorneys, both claiming they are bonafide members of the state board of regents today planned to attend a meeting of the board here Friday to settle the matter.
Welcome plans hit a saga at Canton, Ohio, where Democrats in the city council fought a proposal to proclaim today "MarcAurach Day." One Democrat, called it "a cheap demonstration," but the Republicans carried the motion on a strict party vote, 806.
A. W. Hershberger, Wichita, and Jerry Driscoll, Russell, both Democrats, claim the same membership on the nine-member board.
Then Arn named Hershberger to the position with a statement to the effect that a vacancy existed because Driscoll's nomination had not been confirmed.
Both men apparently gave valid reasons for their right to the position.
But when Gov. Arn sent a list of军官 appointed to the senate for confirmation he ignored Driscoll's previous appointment and suggested Herb Barr of Leoti for the post.
The senate balked. It neither denied nor confirmed Barr's—or Driscoll's—appointment.
