The elections have been rescheduled for Tuesday night at 6:30 o’clock. An exceedingly small turnout of voters, 41 out of a total of almost 300 eligible to vote, caused little to void results of Tuesday's balloting. | Twenty inhabitants of Irvin hall and eleven each from Watts and Jordan were all that turned out for the AIM poll In making his decision. Little declared, “We will not accept as official, results of any elections for AIM representatives i n which less than one-third of the eligible vot ers cast their ballots.” The turnout at Thursday’s poll ing was particularly disappoint ing in light of the recent recep tion give n to similar elections in the Pollock Circle and Nittany dormitories. I n those elections, conducted last week, approximately 50 per cent of all men eligible to vote did so. Chairman Little expressed hope that at Tuesday’s re-scheduled elections a much larger number of men would cast their ballots.
