Election of new officers, appointment of two new committees, report
of the legislative committee, a live',
discussion of the recent letter criticizing the University, and a musical
program highlighted
the Monday
night meeting of the University
Veterans' club.
After a brief vocal and piano
musical program by Jean and Phyllis Kessler, the meeting turned into
an
political convention with the business of electing
new officers having priority for consideration.
As the club's battery of "junior
Philadelphia lawyers" began to fire
away in glowing speeches of oratory
for their respective candidates, th
interest of the large number of
members present hit an
high. They explained the special
qualifications of their nominees to
assume office and the candidates
themselves presented a brief statement concerning their plans for th
club If they were elected. A few
candidates "chose not to run" after
they were nominated.
Howard C. Bowles of Hazard, who
formerly served in the aviation
branch of the U. S. Navy, wi.i
elected president of the club for the
ensuing year, from a field of thre
candidates. Upon assuming his duties of office, he announced the
main and immediate objectives of
his administration would be to "coordinate the activities of the club
orand make it a smooth-runnin- g
ganization directed toward the best
Interests of all students of the campus and Kentucky citizens."
"We realize the influence of thi
veterans and we shall maintain th
sense of responsibility
commensurate with this influence." he
added.
Other officers of the new administration are: James C. Brock of
William
Harlan,
Spragens of Lebanon, secretary:
Edward Gabbard of Harrod.-bur- .
treasurer: Vance Johns of Louisville, sergeant-at-arm- s;
William
Padon of Paducah, chaplain: anct
Professor Bennett Wall, faculty
advisor.
Two new committees wr ap
pointed during the
hour meeting. The housing committee Is to gather data and make
report on legislation now before
Congress which will affect veeran
housing and the other committee
to formulate a special memorial
program in cooperation with the
Alumni Association's plan to erect
a memorial plaque on the campus.
Much discussion and time w3
given at the meeting over the recent letter that was circulated
among members of the General Assembly criticizing the construction
of University buildings. The report of a
committee appointed last week to investigate
the charges contained in the letter
was postponed until next week.
Byron E. Reed Jr., club publicity
chairman.. said "the Veteranb' clu'a
withholds comment or spon.jor.-hi- :
of the letter pending further investigation."
Jim Brock, legislative committee
chairman, reported on the trip to
Frankfort last Thursday by approximately thirty club members who
went to the state capital in the interest of the bill in the legislature
to increase subsistence aU.owanre.-to veterans attending school under
Public Laws 16 and 346. The group
was favorably received by Individual
legislators. It was reported.
