Jonssun ELECTIONS COMMITTEE Not much is heard about the elections committee for the greater part of the year: however, there are two days when its functions are in view of the public eye: The first occurs on the first Tuesday in November when the fall elections are held: the second occurs on the first Tues- day in April for the spring elections. The fall elections include the Senior Week Committee, the Junior Prom Committee, and the Senior Ring Chairman. The major elections of the year occur in the spring when the class officers are elected. Along with the class officers the Senior Class Day ]Marshals are also elected. Two weeks after the start of the term the elections committee conducts the fresh- man elections, one section leader and an alternate from each section. The duties of the elections committee are not restricted solely to conducting the elections. It is up to the committee to promote interest in the elections both from the point of view of the candidate and the voters. FINANCE COMMITTEE The Finance Committee, one of the standing sul)-committees of the Institute Committee, controls and accounts for the funds received by the I ' ndergraduate Association each year from the Under- graduate Budget Board. In accomplishing these aims, the Fi- nance Board, composed of five members of the Institute Committee, makes major policy decisions which are executed by the four members of the Junior Board with the help of six Assistant Members. The chairman of the committee, Fred Lehmann. is also the Treasurer of the Institute Committee and a member of the executive committee of that body. The responsi})ilities of the Junior Board are presently divided into the categories of accounting, purchasing, publications, and activity relations, which are periodically rotated among the Board members; Bob Arl)uckle, Dana Ferguson, Stan Sydney, and Andy Wessel.

WALKER MEMORIAL COMMITTEE A stiulont i oveniinent whicli represents over four thousand students and more than one hundred campus aetivities, must necessarily have some kind of sub- committee to coordinate matters. Tliat organization is tlie Walker Memorial Committee. In its office on the first floor of the Walker Memorial Building are complete files of all activity constitutions, rosters of the ofhcers and members of those activities, the records and minutes of the meetings of the Institute Committee and records and forms of the Walker Memorial Committee as well as a social calendar indicating dates allotted to various groups for social functions.

In order to encourage publicity on the part of the activities, the Walker Memorial Com- mittee sponsors an annual publicity con- test. The Committee is composed of a chairman, who is a senior, two additional senior meml ers, three juniors and six sophomores. ■•iw ' n- ' iT
