If COLIEGIANH ADD “FRESliiikr PARTIES DWINAPE Ma: POLITICAL SC
Political winds sweeping over Butler Mountain and the Highacres campus yester
day swirled the Mollegianu and the wFreshmanu parties into control of student
government offices. An astounding 95 of the entire student enrollment cast their
ballots, making the new official personnel truly "representative".
Andrew J. Karpinski, Nanticoke education sophomore led the Collegians to
victory as sophomore class president and president of the student government
association, the most powerful and responsible student office in the college. "Karp"
is one of only two members of the Interim Council (appointed by last year's Council
to provide a smooth transition from spring to fall activities) to be nominated and
elected in the new student goverv2ent lineup. The other Interim member is
Dorothy Kosack,, mechanical engineering upperclassman from Coaldale, elected as
a representativ6 to the Council.
The Collegians completed their sweep of the sophomore class offices with
Richard J. Yevak, civil engineering major of Hazleton as vice president, and
Donald C. Neifert, labor management major of Lehighton as secretary-treasurer.
Two "Freshman" party men took the lead slots in the incoming class election.
John r?. Ciocca, arts and letters major of Hazleton, took the presidency,
James P. Griesing, arts and letters major of Hazleton, is vice president. The lone
Highacreite to crash a class office was Richard Schraeder, hotel administration
major of Nanticike, who battled his way in as secretary-treasurer of the class.
Highacreite Clarence S. Shipman, mechanical engineering major of Towanda,
broke the otherwise solid opposition by pulling enough votes to gain a place . as
a freshman representative on the'Council. Patricia A. Torpho, commerce major of
West Hazleton, and her brother, Robert J. Tomsho„ a mechanical engineering student,
are the other freshman representatives.
Making it a complete sweep of every office they tried for, the Collegians
elected as sophomore representatives Dorothy Kosack s Jdseph G. Mehalick, John Carr,
and Frank Smida.
Nicholas Skimbo and John Misoda were the only "Freshman" party candidates who
were left behind in the sweep to victory.
The sophomore "Campuscrats" ticket, defeated at every ioint, had entered the
following candidates: President, Raymond Schultz; vic , l president, Joseph Andrews;
Secretary4reasurer„ Marie Jacko; council representatives: William Coll,
Mary Sue Hasara l Anthony Tarone, and James Ustynoski.
The election results were certified by the members of the election board:
