New Exec. Meets

New Exec. Meets

The new executive held its first meeting on Tuesday, July 8. Although minutes of the meeting have been posted on the notice board as usual, we feel that some of the decisions are of unusual interest. For the benefit of those students who are both blind and deaf, we publish here the names of the new executive.

  • President: Harold Dowrick.
  • Women's Vice-President: Hilary Wilton.
  • Men's Vice-President: Alec McLeod.
  • Secretary: Kevin O'Brien.
  • Treasurer: No nomination.
  • Women's Committee: Nell Casey, Marie Irwin, Marget McKenzie.
  • Men's Committee: Jim Battersby, Denzil Brown, Peter Morris.

Until the report of the special financial committee is received, the books of the Association will be kept by Nell Casey, who has been treasurer for the past three months. For the same reason, no co-option has been made to fill the position of Assistant Treasurer. The co-option of the Assistant Secretary has been held over until the next meeting.
