With 256 out of the 485 votes cast by his classmates, Langdon Parker Marvin, Jr. '41 of New York City and Eliot House, led the field in the Student Council Junior elections. Head of the '42 list was Loren Greenwood MacKinney '42 of Chapel Hill, North Carolina and Eliot House, with 191 of the 489 Sophomore ballots.
The other five Juniors elected, in order of votes cast for them, are: Homer D. Peabody, Jr., Spencer A. Klaw, E. Langdon Burwell, Seth C. Crocker, and David D. Henry. Endicott Peabody placed second in the Sophomore race and Eugene D. Keith was third.
Meeting on Monday
A meeting of the new Council will be held on Monday to select five more Juniors and three more Sophomores, it was announced last night by Phil C. Neal '40, retiring President. Later next week a meeting will be held for the election of the '41 officers and the reading of a report by the outgoing officers.
Voting this year was slightly less than last, the records show. In 1939 the Juniors turned in 547 valid ballots and the Sophomores 483, making a total of 1030; while this year the total vote was 974. Forty-nine of the Junior ballots submitted on Tuesday and Wednesday were either illegible or invalid and 36 Sophomore votes were discarded for the same reason.
