BOARD OF CONTROL Downey Hoisiiifiinn VVeIGHTY work faced the student board of control this year when it was found necessary to revise the entire budget follow- ing the falling off in income. Four and five- hour meetings daily finally resulted in $54,- 000 cuts in salaries and appropriations for student activities. Wally Howe, Phi Kappa Sigma, upon whom rested the burden of responsibility from the student delegation, was elected to the board in a spirited campaign during May, 1931, over Clarence Bledsoe, Phi Delta Theta. Howe led the board through perhaps the most troubled period the A.S.U.W. has ever known. Don Hoisington, Alpha Tau Omega, was elected vice-president in January, 1931, and was graduated at the end of the fall quarter following. His successor, Kline Swygard, Sigma Phi Epsilon basketball flash and senior class prexy, was appointed to com- plete the term of office. Ill-health caused the resignation of Vivian Downey, Pi Beta Phi, from the secretary ' s position at the end of fall quarter. Betty Taylor, Sigma Kappa, was appointed to the office for the remainder of the term. Maury Johnson, Sigma Pi, scholastically ineligible for his office as sophomore representative, was replaced by Norwood Nickols, Delta Tau Delta. Richard Curly Harris, dynamic Alpha Delta Phi and former crew captain, pres- ident of Oval Club and Big W, resigned his post as graduate representative early in the spring quarter because of overwork. His post was taken by Bruce Bartley, Delta Chi, former presidential candidate. Swygartlt Taylor, Montgomery, Craig, Nelson
