National Guard Puts Finger on Bill Carey;
Departure May Be Preceded by New Election
Bill Carey, ASUO president,
will leave for officers' school at Ft.
Benning, Ga., before the end of the
school year but his departure will
probably come after the installa
tion of a new student body presi
dent.
Carey said Sunday he. planned
to schedule the ASUO banquet, at
which time the new president, is
sworn in, early in May. His orders
are to report at Ft. Benning May
28 and he plans to leave sehool
about May 20.
If the new president is not in
augurated at that time, Carey said,
the ASUO vice-president, Merv
Hampton, will take over. He
thought that only in the event both
president and vice-president are
absent would the ASUO senate se
lect a new president.
The ASUO constitution, under
duties of the vice-president, states
that the vice-president "shall as
sume all duties pertaining to the
office of president in the presi
dent's temporary absence . .
In the constitution clause per
taining to powers and duties nf the
senate, it states that "vacancy in
the offices of president or vice
president will be filled by the sen
ate.'’
Carey will go in as a 2nd lieu
tenant in the list national guard
division, which draws its personnel
from Oregon, Washington and
Idaho, All the division’s officers,
he said, will probably be called to
school before June 30.
He is uncertain ol' what course
I he will follow after the schooling
which \\ ill take 15 weeks. He will
probably not be called into active
duty unless the whole division
goes, he explained, but is not sure
whether he will be returned home
i or apply for active duty.
I He is 22 and in his fifth year of
school. He completed his course in
business administration last year
and has been taking work in
speech and economics this year.
