Today's Forecast: Cloudy, Mild - and Rainy VOL. 58, No. 46 MorganKilli New Vote On Rotation John Morgan, president of. the Association of Independent Men, last night vetoed a Board of Governors motion to recon sider a vote favoring retention of the rotation system for All- University and class elections. A move to ,override the veto— which needed a majority—was defeated, 15-15. In vetqing an 18-10 vote for reconsideration at the stormy meeting, Morgan quoted article 4. section 33 of the AIM con stitution which he said gives the chairman of the board such power. The motion, to reconsider the vote favoring retention of the ro tation system was made by Rob ert Owens, president of Pollock Council. Carl Smith ; president of West Halls Council, said that when the vote favoring retention of the ro tation system was held at a board meeting held several weeks ago, many members representing West Halls were freshmen and they were voting for something of which they had little knowledge. Smith also said since the 'board vote, the West Halls council has gone on record of favoring abolition of the rota tion system. Louis Wonderly, AIM secretary, told the meeting this is not the time to reeonsider the vote since All-University Cabinet is in the process of studying the merits of the issue. After the veto stood official, Owens told the board that he be lieved the last governor's meeting to be unconstitutional because an alternate member was illegally seated. John Rhodes, acting parliamen tarian, told the board that since the vote in question was a 14 to 7 margin, one vote would not change the majority. or cause a tie.
