CHEERLEADER ASKS
NEW ELECTION PLAN
Ilcicklcn Proposes Committee
System for Choosing
Cheer Head
That the election of the head cheer
leader and hisassistantsshould be pla
ced m the hands of a committee of
five College leadeis, was the iceom
mcndation of Isadorc F Heieklen ’3O
before Student Council Tuesday night.
The election group would be com
posed of the director of athletics,
graduate manager, president and sec*
ictnry of tlie Athletic association, and
the tetiring head cheeileader, accotd
mg to the proposal Four junioi
assistants would be chosen by the head
cheerleadei within two weeks aftci
receiving the office.
To effect this change the plan must
be presented before the Athletic
Board of Control since election of
cheerleaders is contioiled by a con
stitutional by-law of that giuup If
approved by this body the proposal
will be voted upon by the students
land if passed will become a Constitu
i tion amendment
Heieklen Explains Reason
| Under the present plan the two
, sumoi chccrlcadcis arc elected by
[ popular vote of the student body In
| Ileicklcn’s opinion this system is de
i fcctivc because the most deserving
laspuant may not receive the position,
j Speaking on this point he stated,
i “It is possible that the laggard who
has done very little during the yeai
may conduct an extenstvc campaign
bcfoic election and be swept into of
fice on this basis.
“With the new plan,” the cheer
leader continued, “this would haully
be possible because the election would
be conducted by' a gioup of tiust
worthy men who know the quahhea
tions of the candidates
“Anothei element to be considered,"
HcicAlcn stated, “is that fraternity
cliques would eventually gam con
tioi of the elections and put their men
in lcgardlcss of their worth"
