primaries. Official gavel, token of office, will be handed him by Ernest Ray Davis, present president, in OMD assem¬
bly, June 25. Greatest peculiarity of this semester’s election, in addition to the 43 per cent vote, was the elimination of

Constitutional amendments

Student Spectator Gay Nineties
By NOEL YOUNG
It was work, dust and sweat,
just as carnival booths used
to be, but the expressions of
Salvagers were hardly painful.
And the mountain rose to
heights above expectations. The
Junk Man rubbed his hands,
and had Yamamoto been on the
scene, he would have been jolt¬
ed back on his heels, for the
American youths he visualized
piled nothing more than prom
bids.
It must’ve been a tremen¬
dous shock to his system to
hear that those “soft” Ameri¬
cans, only kids at that, made
a mountain out of a mole hill.
A few years ago on the ’Fris¬
co waterfront we used to see
heaps of junk on the NYK Line
docks bound for Japan. We used
to chuckle at that — “junk for
the Japs, ha ha.” But we’re not
chortling like that anymore,
we’ve seen what the Japs have
done with junk. When Pearl
Harbor was wounded by bombs
spewing shrapnel of old Model
T gears, we learned a lesson.

Bulldog Band Reclaims
Vaudeville For Assembly
Today, in assembly, the Bulldog Band renounces its dignity
for tricks of old vaudeville variety. Following close upon the an¬
nual Homecoming Concert, assembly features such top-notch num¬
bers as “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree,” “Hawaiian War Chant”
and a special interpretation of “Blue Danube.”
Physical fitness program interspersed with gags from the
Gay Nineties will provide fruit for jokes in the day’s show, with
“felt-o-grams” and a drum solo adding more color.
Auditorium doors will open ten minutes early owing to popu¬
larity of assembly, will provide ample time for seating arrange¬
ments. East Campus students must secure admittance tickets from
Argonaut window in the Student Union.

and the Civil Service Act will
be voted on today. The substitu¬
tion of words primary and sec¬
ondary for previously used
terms, felony and misdemeanor.
In regulation criminal code, mis¬
demeanors refer to grevious of¬
fenses of some sort, whereas
the JC code applies it to any¬
thing from smoking to gambl¬
ing. Another change to be voted
upon shall be that of the Civil
Service Commission Act. Dis¬
satisfaction with existing terms
has led to following revision of
the act. The commission is to
consist of four members from
each campus with a coordinat¬
ing chairman and respective
campus chairman chosen from
its ranks. Copies of the consti¬
tution will be at the polls so
students may see original ar¬
ticle. Only four polls will be
opened on East Campus, C
building, girls gym, Tech build¬
ing, and the Student Union. Stu¬
dent Union will be the only
place to vote on West Campus.
Results of last Friday’s elec¬
tion is as follows: East Campus,
president, Dale Hiestand;* asso¬
ciate president, Jim McCaffrey,

Interviewed
Neither taking election cam¬
paigns seriously, or lightly, Dale
Hiestand strikes the happy me¬
dian, has always been success¬
ful. Stepladder fashion, his
political career reads: President
of commissioners at Marshall
Junior High (where incidently
he won the Kiwanis award),
Freshman class president, sec¬
retary of athletics for two se¬
mesters, AMS president, Lancer
president. He even captained
the Frosh eleven two years ago.
Maintainence of a
В
plus schol¬
arship and Mast and Dagger
membership highten achieve¬
ments.
Disgusted by the illogical
situation which causes stu¬
dents to turn away from as¬
semblies, Hiestand plans pro¬
duction of more popular
shows containing student ap¬
peal. Although not a reform¬
er, he plans to increase the
efficiency of the Civil Service,
achieve a better grade of ap¬
pointive office members.
Dale is a physical education
major, however doesn’t contem¬
plate a coaching career.
