cupations, or for those who are

Cordova Elected
ASB President
The ASB election is over, the
votes have been cast, and the re¬
sults have been tabulated.
Marianne Cordova, who served
as Senate first vice president this
semester, was elected ASB presi¬
dent. She is the first woman to
hold the office since 1955.
Charles B. Watson was elected
ASB vice president.
The closest race was for the
Sophomore Class president. Dana
Ehlig was re-elected for this office.
The rest of the five offices had
no contest; the winners had run
unopposed. Steve Goldman is the
new Senate president. Gerry
Kuehner is the new AMS presi¬
dent, and Linda Malligo is the
new AWS president.
John Conroy is the new Fresh¬
man Class president, and Harold
Jong is the athletics commission¬
er.
Dean John Eikenbery said that
the turnout for the election was
about usual. Close to 400 students
turned out at the polls, which is
only 4 per cent of the students
eligible to vote.
In the last Senate meeting,
Crystal Bell was elected Senate
first vice president and John
Amos Senate second vice presi¬
dent for next semester.

A total of 10 courses lead to
the Chartered Life Underwriter
diploma designating academic
and professional achievement.
There are approximately 20,000
active CLU members in the Uni¬
ted States.
Information may be obtained
by phoning Goldback, CLU educa¬
tion chairman, at 795-2007, or the
Counseling Center at PCC, 795-
6961, Ext. 251.
PCC is also offering for the
first time credit courses at five
neighboring high schools — Arca¬
dia, La Canada, San Marino,
South Pasadena and Temple City
—in the spring semester begin¬
ning February 7.
Those interested in enrolling
may pre-register on the PCC
campus in 108C or register in the
classroom at the first scheduled
class meeting.
Introductory courses in psy¬
chology and sociology will be of¬
fered at all five schools. In addi¬
tion, fundamentals of speech will
be taught at South Pasadena.
William G. Norris, dean of ex¬
tended day and summer sessions,
expressed the hope that high
school students will also take ad¬
vantage of the courses, since they
help fulfill general requirements
for a two-year associate in arts
degree or for transfer to a four-
year college or university.
Taking these courses while in
high school will afford the stu¬
dent more time for an elective
program in college, he pointed
out.
