ment under which the men returned TO |

Issue is Publicity-Two tickets are
being voted on in the school election
today These are: Regular ticket. A.

Browning. Publicity ticket, A. Nj. Beal.
president; John Swanson, G. H. Nc

is that of proposing more publicity in
publishing the proceedings of the

minutes be given more in detail, and
while the board has not authority TO
appropriate money for this purpose,
the publicly ticket favors the devising
of some plan for detailing the board
