Ridderbusch Attempts to Stay
ASUO Installation by Filing Motion
A motion for an injunction which
would prevent the installation of
new ASUO officers, scheduled for
the ASUO banquet Wednesday
night, will be made today by Bob
Ridderbusch, throng h his law
school counsels Francis Linklater
and Fred Risser.
The motion, according to Risser,
will have the effect of asking the
constitutional committee to issue
an order to stop the installation.
The committee itself, he said,
would have to decide whether or
not to issue it on receipt of the mo
tion.
This will be the third petition
Ridderbusch has presented to the
committee, headed by K. J. O'Con
nell, professor of law.
-Early last week he contested the
election only to have Merv Hamp
ton, ASUO vice-president and head
the election committee, and his
counsels, law students John Sabin
and Lester Pederson, move to have
the petition dismissed on grounds
that it was not signed under oath.
Then Thursday Ridderbusch pre
sented a second petition this time
signed under oath asking “that
the ASUO student body election of
April 30, 1952 be declared null and
voiil and of no effect.”
Constitution Not Followed
Given as reasons for having it
called off were: that none of the
seven polling booths remained open
for the “entire period’ ’specified by
the ASUO constitution: that the
names on the ballot were not in
the order decided on by the ASUO
senate; that sophomore and junior
class ballots did not appear in the
Emerald as specified by the con
stitution; and that “innumerable
irregularities” occurred at the
Skinner's Butte and Amazon poll
ing areas.
