Woman's Department Club to
Nominate Officers Wednesday

Wednesday, members Of the
Woman'S Department Club will
nominate new officers by ballot at
the clubhouse. Offices to be filed
are those of president, first vice.
president, recording and member
ship secretaries, treasurer and three
directors.
In other years, different groups
have advanced tickets naming can
didates Of their choice. This year,
no ticket has been suggested and
there is no outstanding name for
any Of the offices.
Mrs. Everett Schofield, who has
served two terms as president, re-
fuses to run again. Mrs. r. o. Nc
Alexander, now first vice-preSident,
has been mentioned for the Office,
as have Mrs. John Williams, pres
ent recording secretary, and Mrs.
A. S. Ayres, former vice-president.
None of the three, however, have
signified their willingness to accept
the nomination.
Mrs. A. j. Hueber and Mrs. Madi-
son Swadener are being discussed
for the Office of first vice-preSident,
and Mrs. j. F. Engelke and Mrs. Al
bert Hinkle for that of recording
secretary. These women, however,
also are reluctant to serve.
Mrs. Horance CaSady will run
again for the office Of treasurer, and
Mrs. A. E. Shirley also will run
again for membership secretary. So
far these names are ~unoppoSed.
Women mentioned for directors
include Mrs. Victor Kendall, Mrs.
Harry Watson, Mrs. o. E. Anthony
and Mrs. Robert Shingler.
AS a result of the combustion ac-
companying this election, it may be
possible that the constitution will be
changed to authorize the election
of a nominating committee which
would be required to offer states of
candidates.
