Cabinet Takes Action
On Member Substitution
- Ex-officio members of Cabinet
may now have substitute repre
sentatives -who will attend meet
ings in the formers' absence, Rob
ert D. Baird '42, All-College presi
dent, revealed yesterday.
This provision, as passed by Cab
inet, has much similarity to the
first by-law, which was added to
the constitution one week ago. First
to take advantage of the by-law
concerning substitution by regular
members was Mary Ellen Diehl
'42, Philotes representative, who
asked to be relieved of her office
in favor of Julia V. Skellchock '43.
