Adams Elected Co-op Chief
In Record Voter Turnout
By GUY MILLER
Jeff Adams has been elected president of the Cooperative Association for next
year.
Adams defeated Dave Mustian by a wide margin in the election held on Monday
and Tuesday. According to figures released by Bobby Jean Grady, chairman of the
Elections Committee, Adams piled up a vote of 403 against Mustian’s support of 260.
Miss Grady also stated this total balloting of 663 is a new record for student voting
at this school. Of 900 eligible voters, this figure represents an approximate 73 per cent
turn-out at the polls. The
committee expresses pleas
ure and thanks the student
body for this majority re
sponse in voting.
Mustian expressed congratula
tions to Adams on his victory.
Dave indicated he has no plans to
seek any other office, but will help
next year’s Executive Board in
any way he can as a student.
ITie election brought to a close
the campaign that had been before
the eyes and in the minds of the
school for almost two weeks. The
campus had been plastered with
posters, candidates and issues had
been discussed and rediscussed,
and students — one after the other
—had been asked to support a par
ticular candidate.
The activities of campaigning
reached the peak on Thursday be
fore the election, when each candi
date delivered his campaign
speech. The gym was suddenly
turned into a small - scaled con
vention hall as each speaker pre
sented his respective platform and
demonstrators had a chance to ex
press their support for a favorite
candidate.
The presidential election is his
tory. The campus is now turning
its eyes and attention to the elec
tions to be held on Monday and
Tuesday, May 8 and 9.
Monday and Tuesday’s voting
will determine the vice - president,
secretary, and treasurer of the
Cooperative Association,; head
cheerleader; editor, art editor, and
business manager of the PINE
KNOT; editor and business mana
ger of THE COLLEGIATE; class
officers; and CCA officers.
Installation of all campus offi
cers will be conducted May 11.
