FROSH CLASS ELECT OFFICERS “The Houghton Star,” Houghton, N. “Carrv On.’^ (Continued from 1) dent and not voting foi- an athlete, as was seemingly the case with Fowler as a candidate. A Burlington member of the class assumed the pose of an orator and loudly declaimed that neither w^as the class holding a beauty contest and voting for looks, as would be the case with Mr. Carrow. Miss Clara ('“ John nie”) Sharpe fo'llow^ed by stumping for Carrow, she pointing out that the class president must be able to speak well and must be a leader. Miss Kitty Johnson follow'ed and also spoke for Carrow'. Following these were speeches by Mr. Hook and Mr. Gunn for Fowler. Freshman JohnsoTi took the floor once more, and, stumping for Fowler, said that evidently Fowler was the men’s candidate and Carrow was the girls’. Various and numerous speeches were made for all three candidates, so many in fact that our columns lack space to print all of them. A motion to close the discussion and tc ballot on the can didates was entertained from the chair, which was duly seconded and carried. The results showed that '‘Jim” Fowler was to assume the helm of the new^ boat, “The Class of ’31.’’ Spirited competition was shown in the election of the vice-president of the Class. The candidates were: James Walton, “Hans” Waggoner, and Miss Moore. After the ballots w'ere count ed, it was found that Mr. Walton w^as to be the second in command. After a heated race the office of sec retary was declared to be won by Miss Moore. At the meeting held on Wed nesday Miss Katherine Harper was elected treasurer and “Uncle Ned” Brannock, sponsor of the class. Our idea of the high lights can be summed up by saying that the best man w'O'n every time. Yet we are won dering how^ “Jim” Fowler got his pull with the boys; how “Jim” Walton got his influence over “Concord;” and where Maurice Carrow’ found his feminine support.
