first session, but we nominated Dr. William Rohrbacher
of Iowa City, Iowa, for president, and for vice-president our perennial
candidate here, who has disappeared from the scene, renominating Dr. L.
H. MacDaniels. We hope to make him president next time. If he doesn't
make it next time, I think we will have to throw him out. And for the
secretary, our friend, Joe McDaniel. They are not relatives. And the
treasurer, repeating officer, Sterling Smith. The secretaryship and
treasurership shouldn't change any more often than necessary.
MR. STERLING SMITH: I object.
Before you move on that, I'd like to say that it isn't really legal, I
think, that I should have been on the nominating committee, and being
one of the officers, it would be very well taken on my part if there
were any nominations from the floor.
MR. CHASE: We are coming to that.
Any objections that we have nominations from the floor? Are there any
nominations for president?
MR. WELLMAN: Move nominations be closed.
MR. CHASE: Are there any other nominations for vice-president? (No
response.) I am sure we must have one for the treasurer. (No response.)
Do we have any for secretary?
MR. CORSAN: Why not have the former Miss Jones president again?
MR. STOKE: She becomes a member of the Board of Directors, and I think
it would be out of order to elect her to another office.
MR. CORSAN: I withdraw it.
MR. CHASE: Now I will entertain your motion, Mr. Wellman.
MR. WELLMAN: I move it.
MR. CHASE: It has been moved that the slate by the nominating committee
be accepted.
DR. CRANE: Second.
(Whereupon, a vote was taken on the motion, and it was carried
unanimously.)
MR. CHASE: Dr. MacDaniels, you may come in now.
DR. CRANE: We moved that nominations be closed. We haven't accepted
them.
MR. STOKE: When you are through, I have a resolution to offer.
DR. CRANE: Move that the report of the nominating committee be accepted
and we proceed with the election by voice vote. All in favor of having
the secretary cast a ballot for the slate nominated by our nominating
committee please signify by saying "aye."
(A vote was taken on the motion, and it was carried unanimously.)
MR. STOKE: I would like to make a motion that we elect a
parliamentarian, and I wish to nominate Dr. Crane.
MR. STERLING SMITH: Second the motion.
(A vote was taken on the motion, and it was carried unanimously.)
MR. FRYE: We elected a parliamentarian last year. I
