C. PROCTOR In the past the job of presi dent of the student body has been more an honor than a job for two reasons, namely: the lack of strong men in office and the fact that men in the office have owed political obligations for their election. The presi dency could be of infinite serv ice to the student body if there were elected a qualified man who owed no frame-up any thanks for political support. A person who owes no political ob ligations can act in accord with student opinion without asking whose style it cramps if he acts. A person who owes political ob ligations must watch his step for fear oi treading: upon a former supporters' tofes. The position of an independent can didate has an advantage from the student body's point of view over party candidates. The only motivation for run ning for office is self-interest. My future is intended to be in public service. It is then my best interest to serve the stu dent body s best interest. To me the job is not an honor, but a trust of the student body and an opportunity, by- serving ef f i ciently, to help my own future. With the exception of the secret orders on the campus there are but few organizations with which I have no contact Since my work has thrown me (Continued on page two) the hours of 9 :00 and 12 :00 o'clock, it was announced yes terday.

At this dance, the new members of the Order, who will be chosen later . this quarter, will be honored. Buccaneer Nomination Goes to Karl Sprinkle At a meeting of the Carolina Buccaneer staff Sunday, Karl Sprinkle, art editor, received the staff nomination for next year's editorship of the publica tion over Pete Ivey by a vote of fifteen to five. The meeting for the purpose j ii oi nominating tne next year s editor was originally scheduled for last night, but it was moved up in order that the name of the candidate picked by the staff might be proposed at the nom inations in Memorial hall yes terday morning. Other nominations were ' not prevented by the staff nomina tion, and Ivey's name was pre sented to the students yester day. However, the nomination of the staff is generally regard ed as official. Twenty-nine students of the ? University were yesterday nom inated as candidates for four teen elective campus-wide of fices for next year at a student meeting in Memorial hall. Elec tions for thirteen' of these of fices will take place in Graham Memorial tomorrow. Ernest Hunt, candidate for the fourteenth office, was re elected cheerleader when his nomination yesterday went unopposed. Approximately six hundred students attended the meeting yesterday, over which Haywood Weeks, president of the student body, presided. Long rounds of cheers and applause greeted each nomination. Hot Campaign The meeting yesterday pre sented a contrast with the nom inations of last year when all but three of the nominees re ceived no opposition and went into office without standing for election. Already this year a hot campaign has developed, and plenty of political fireworks are expected. Nominations for the president of the student body were Har per Barnes, Arlindo S. Cate, and B. C. Proctor, while nom inees for vice-president are Benton Bray and Lee Greer. For president of the athletic association Floyd Higby and Dave McCachren were named.
