1925 AND 1926 TO VOTE FOR COUNCIL MEMBERS

Almost 1500 men--approximately 700 Juniors and 770 Sophomores--are receiving this morning postal ballots for the election of the original members of next year's Student Council. Juniors are entitled to vote for seven men out of a list of fifteen nominees and Sophomores may vote for three out of eight men nominated from their class. The ten men finally elected will next fall choose five others--three members of the class of 1925 and two members of the class of 1926--to complete the total membership of the Council.

The list of nominees is as follows:

The method of election to the Student Council and the composition of that body have been radically changed for next year. All ex-officio members have been eliminated and the system of choice has been made more popular. But the most important feature of the new system, according to its supporters, is the restriction in the size of the Council which it is hoped will make for a more efficient body in the future.

The Executive Committee of the present Council emphasized last night that ballots in the present election must be signed, and must be returned by 1 o'clock on Wednesday, May 25.
