JOHN FINK IS ELECTED
JUNIOR HIGH PRESIDENT
The final results of the election
for president of the Junior High School
resulted in a victory for John Fink.
The voting took place Wednesday.
After the balloting, there was a
discussion for a re-vote. In a special
Student Council meeting yesterday noon,
the final decision was that Fink was e-
lected. The Constitution states that it
does not require a majority vote to de-
cide.
John Fink had seventy-seven votes,
which were three over his nearest com-
petitor, Robert Wheeler.

CO-OPERATION MOST IMPORTANT
Although quite a few Milne students
may not agree with the recent election
results for Student Council president,
it is now up to everyone to co-operate
with the president-elect.
Everyone cannot be satisfied all
the time and those who were on the los-
ing side must be sports enough to work
with Student Council and not against it.
More people voted for John Fink
than for either of the other two candi-
dates, and as the Constitution does not
soy that the candidate shall need a ma-
jority vote, he was duly elected.
We should all back our new presi-
dent in his work next year for the good
of the school.
THE RaMBLING REPORTER REPORTS--
"Do you think it was fair to the
pupils of Milne when the faculty changed
the school hours for next year without
consulting the pupils?" was the question
asked this week. The answers, almost
evenly divided, were as follows;
Jane Wedder, 227, no; Dorothy Mo-
sher, 127, mo; David Wilson, 227, yes;
Marilyn Smith, 227, no; Robert Mapes,
336, yes; Margaret Lasher, 121, no; Sh-
irley Baldwin, 121, no; Jean Tarshes,
227, no; Edmund Haskin, 320, yes; arthur
Thompson, 356, yes; Wilson Hume, 224, no.
The majority of the people who said
"yes" stated that the faculty did what
they thought best ond that the students
do not know ensugh about the subjoct to
decide on a question like that.
Those on the opposite side believe
that according to the theory of democ-
racy they should have been allowed to
decide the hours.
NEW DOOR SIGNS MaDE IN SHOP
A new set of door signs have been
made in the shop for a number of the
