Theyare: Marian Llewellyn, Eleanor At­kins, Buel Hutchinson, Van .MeterAmes, George Martin, Frank Long,Chalmer McWilliams and John Pros­ser.Nominations Come Next Week.In view of the fact that the classelections are long over-due and thatthe concensus of 'opinion on the cam­pus is that the .organization intocl8sses should be hastened as' much ..��:���=�>.;(:Og.l1cil � has set �_time of the usual class elections veeyearly in the quarter.The nominations will be held aboutthe middle of next week, and as soonafter that as possible, ballots will becast for the different offices: Thedate of the elections will largely de­pend upon the facility with whichthe Recorder's officer will be able toprepare the class lists.Class Tickets Are Necessary.The Council is desirious of bring­ing to the attention of all students thefact" that the purchase of class ticketswill, as in former years, be prerequis­'ite to voting in the elections.
