The queen was announced Friday night during the Junior Prom inter mission. Voting was conducted Wednesday. —Art French Photo Freshman Muscle Men Humble Sophomores in Annual Tug-o-war Hie freshman class, with the, advantage of more tuggers and a bigger chunk of the rope, humbled the sophomore class in less than ten seconds at the frosTi-sopho more tug-o-war, behind the Kappa Sigma house at 1 p.m. Friday. A pre-contest activity was the arrival of a canoe with three fore ign looking students, who pro ceeded to pour an orange powder in the water, which gave the stream a “foul looking" color. The three intruders were quick ly dumped over the side of the canoe by the freshmen, and as the canoe filled with water, an overwhelming amount of empty stubbies were brought to sight from their resting place in the bottom of the canoe. The stubbies, a guest appear-1 ancc by Waldo, mingled with the mud stirred up by the water tang lers, made the tug-o-war a color ful battle. The sophomores, even with the advantage of a better brace on the concrete wall on the north bank, were no match for the well-or ganized freshman enthusiasts. For a few minutes, it looked as though the sophomore class would not make an appearance, but at the last minute, the seasoned tug gors, with one year of experience behind them, came running with the bloody cry of, “Give us our share of the rope" and "Let's make this a fair contest." liob Lrittain, sophomore class president, was one of the last arrivals, and grabbed frantically for a piece of the rope, as the sophomores began to slide, quickly in the Millrace. One drenched loser, not giving up until the rope was beyond his reach, swam quick (Please turn to page eight) Old Campus Site of Luncheon; McArthur Court Is Alternative The all-campus luncheon will be jin at 11:45 a.m. today on the old j •ampus (between Fenton and' Friendly) unless it rains.

Legal Petition Contesting Election Given to Constitution Committee A notarized petition requesting 'that the ASUO student body elec ion of April 30, 1952 be declared lull and void and of no effect" is low in the hands of K. J. O'Con a ll, law professor and head of the constitutional committee, Bob Rid lerbuseh, signer of the complaint, said Friday. The document is signed by Rid derbusch and six others; James Mead. Belaud C. Johnson, Richard J. Hansen, B. O. Muharajh, John /V. Simmons and Arlo Giles. This petition replaces an earlier me which Merv Hampton, ASUO rice-president and chairman of the [■lection committee, and his law school counsels asked to have dis missed on grounds that it was not signed under oath. The new complaint states that none of the seven polling places "remained open for the entire per iod provided for’’ by the ASUO constitution during the election and that the order of names on the ballot was not the same as pro vided for by the ASUO senate at their April 17 meeting. It also notes that the sophomore and junior class ballots were not run in the Emerald for two con secutive days prior to the election and that '"innumerable irregulari ties” occurred at the Skinner’s Butte and Amazon polling areas which did not give voters there sufficient opportunity “to exercise their right of franchise.” Meanwhile, Arlo Giles, ASUO senator-at-large, delivered a letter to ASUO President Bill Carey Fri day which said he (Giles) would not attend the ASUO banquet May 14 because of the protest. He said in part: “Since a decision has not yet j been made and in all probability 1 will not be made for the next few days, it seems to me to be rather presumptious on our part to at tend a banquet, the specific pur pose of which is to install the ‘newly elected’ officers.” Giles pointed out that until the matter is settled this year’s senate will be the governing body “and has no right nor power to termi nate its tenure in any other way than that prescribed by the ASUO constitution, by a clearly and pat ently valid and legal election con ducted in the manner and accord ing to the terms set forth in our constitution.” Names appearing on the new pe tition are not all the same as on (Please turn to (age eight) men's service honorary.
