ASB Elections Delayed on Technicality
ASB President
SCOTT V. OUSDAHL, a gradu¬
ate of Crescenta Valley High
School, has held the offices of
Freshman Class president, Sopho¬
more Class vice-president, and
Circle
К
treasurer here. Ousdahl’s
platform says:
“I propose to bring the govern¬
ment back to the students by find¬
ing out the students’ wants,
thoughts and ideas. I would also
propose the idea of changing one
of the Campus Center offices into
a publicity center. This in turn
would let the students know what
is happening and when.”
TERRY L. MOORE, a graduate
of Pasadena High School, has
held the offices of Freshman
Class president, and interim ASB
president.
Moore says in his platform:
“As president I would find an
open ear and an unbiased opinion.
In order to execute activities
which are not oriented toward the
static views of many people now
involved in student government,
we must hear you — you the indi¬
vidual students who constitute
the body of this college."

Sophomore Class President
Vice President
GRAHAME JONES graduated
from John Bright High School in
Wales. He has been Sophomore
Class president, Language Coun¬
cil president, a member of OMD,
and Circle
К
while at PCC.
Jones' platform is: “I feel that
I have the experience necessary
to successfully handle the posi¬
tion. The Cabinet can, and will
have a much stronger voice in
student government. This semes¬
ter has seen a lot of talk and
very little action; next year I
intend to see this changed.”
Senate President
RANDY FOWLER, a graduate
of Monrovia High School, has
been a member of the AMS Board,
Senate, Pep Commission, Sopho¬
more Class Council, and treasurer
of ISC at PCC.
Fowler's platform reads: “I
feel that the students of our col¬
lege deserve a voice in running
the college and that voice has to
come through the Senate. I have
a four-point program which I feel
will insure the students a more
representative government.
1. The Senate should become
the legislative branch of our
government; right now the ASB
Board serves as both legislative
and executive. 2. The Senate
should have power to accept or
reject all appointments made by
the ASB President. 3. We should
work to lower the price of the
ASB card to a reasonable amount
which all students can afford. 4.
I would like to establish a Senate
Journal to be published twice a
month on actions taken by the
Senate and of all action that is
pending in future Senate meet¬
ings."
OSCAR A. PALMER, a gradu¬
ate of John Muir High School, has
been a member of AMS, and has
been Supreme Council Chief Jus¬
tice while at PCC.
Palmer’s platform says: “I be¬
lieve that the only way to make
the Senate a meaningful body is
to give it legislative power. If
elected, this should be my main
goal. In addition I would like to
see the Senate work very closely
with the commissions and to
speed student body money allo¬
cated to these commissions in ac¬
cordance to student wishes.”
JOHN L. TOURYAN, graduate
of Pasadena High School, has held
the presidency of the Junior Ex¬
ecutives here.
Touryan’s platform is: "I plan
to make the representative branch
of the student government a
stronger force in its recommenda¬
tions of action to the ASB Board.
I also plan to make the channels
of communication between stu¬
dents and student government
more direct and efficient.”
TOM COSTON, a graduate of
La Salle High School, who has
held the offices of Freshman
Class vice-president, and Fresh¬
man Class President, and who is
a member of AMS, and the Pep
Commission here.
Coston’s platform is: “As presi¬
dent we'll elect class officers in
an open caucus. It is my purpose
to engender identity within the
class as a base on which to frame
interest and support. A Sopho-

more Class concert will be pre¬
sented in the immediate weeks
following, featuring a nationally
known popular group. A free
Soph assembly in the day will
feature top name entertainment,
with effective publicity. Academic
involvement will be the goal of
my administration. The class will
have free forums with controver¬
sial and provocative known guest
speakers.”
HARRY L. PRICE, a graduate
of San Gabriel High School, has
been a member of AMS, the Soph
Council, and the Concert Choir,
and was assistant pep commis¬
sioner, and social affairs commis¬
sioner.
Price’s platform reads: “I
would continue to create new and
interesting activities for the bene¬
fit of the Soph Council, Soph
Class and the college. I feel that
a closely united council is what
PCC needs in order to have a
stronger student government."
THOMAS WILMHURST, a
graduate of Alhambra High
School, has been a member of the
Pep Squad and Junior Optimist
Club while attending PCC.
Wilmshurst’s platform: “I
would like to stimulate a great
interest in the Sophomore Class
by offering them stimulating and
interesting activities for next se¬
mester. This can only be done
through the wholehearted support
of the entire Sophomore Class and
a highly unified Council. I will
also strive to attain a better de¬
gree of communication between
the Soph Council and the student
body.”
New Drama Offered
The Theater Arts Association
of PCC, under the direction
of Dr. Donald Ewing, is reliears-
sing one of Goldoni’s most
famous play’s “The Servant of
Two Masters.” Two perfor¬
mances will be staged in Sexson

of the Italian theatre of the
1700’s which was dominated by
improvising actors who wore

Arts Association will be using
Commedia dell’arte costumes
and masks for the traditional
characters. Admission is free

Voting Scheduled
for Next Week
Just when ASB elections were
supposed to be held tomorrow and
Friday, the Elections Commission
declared all candidates ineligible
because they had not turned in
petitions.
The ASB Board had declared
that petitions would not be nec¬
essary, but the decision was not
passed by the required two-thirds
majority.
After the Elections Commission
had investigated and discovered
the two-thirds vote was a require¬
ment, the candidates were ruled
“out of order.”
All who wish to run for office
must reapply. Forms will be
picked up in the office of S. Luke
Curtis, dean of student activities,
111C, and resubmitted.
ASB spokesmen emphasize that
the completed forms must be in
the office of the Interdepartment¬
al Activities Commission, Campus
Center, by 8 p.m. tomorrow, or
they will not be on the ballot.
Applications received after that
hour will cause prospective office
holders to be write-in candidates
only.
The actual election is now
scheduled for next Monday and
Wednesday, May 29 and 31, with
only one voting booth in use. That
will be in front of the Campus
Center.
Candidates will deliver their
speeches at noon Friday on the
Campus Center patio. Debates by
aspirants for the ASB presidency
will also be heard there during
the lunch hour.
By press time, spokesmen for
the Elections Commission expect¬
ed the same students to be on the
slate as had previously agreed to
run for office. Candidates and
their platforms that follow are
the ones previously submitted to
the Courier before the change In
the election was announced.
AWS President
MARGO ZEILSTRA was pub¬
licity chairman for AWS, is a
member of the Pep Club, and was
a member of the Freshman and
Sophomore Class Councils.
Her platform reads: “I would
like to see the AWS Board taking
a bigger interest in all the women
students than It has been in the
past. I would like to see next se¬
mester’s board working closer
with the AMS Board and sponsor¬
ing more events in a joint fashion.
I would also like to have AWS
sponsor assemblies that would be
of great interest to all women stu¬
dents. I feel that it is important
that all the girls at PCC are rep¬
resented in AWS and that AWS
should take on the responsibility
of providing an active and inter¬
esting program of activities for
all women students.”
TERRY SMITH
AMS President
TERRY SMITH is a graduate
of Cantwell High School in Mon¬
tebello. Smith has been a member
of AMS, the Young Republicans,
Publicity Commission and has
been Publicity Commissioner
here.
Smith’s platform is: “I plan to
create a much closer tie between
the general student body and the
AMS Board. I will strive for a
greater representation of the male
students in the AMS Board. As a
member of the ASB Board I will
strive to fulfill the greater goals
of the individual students.”
