Five recommendations that would formalize all Student Council polling and elections will be submitted to the Council at its meeting Monday night by Joseph D. Everingham '49, Council secretary, who was appointed last week by that body to draw them up.

Crux of Everingham's proposals is the recommendation that all Council elections and polling be put in the hands of one member from the time voting takes place to the counting of ballots. The Council is expected to make the selection at its forthcoming meeting.

All ballots and polls, under the plan, would be submitted at least one week in advance of their circulation to the Council, which would then examine them to see that they meet Council standards.

The ballots would have the approval of a member of the Department of Social Relations for content before presentation to the student body.

Ballots sampling student opinion--such as the forthcoming food conservation poll--would be taken at one meal only in all dining halls. Votes requiring a check-off list would be conducted over a period of several meals.

All balloting in the Houses would be under the control of a specified member of the House Committee, who would be responsible to the overall Council-appointed chairman.

Single Tally

No preliminary tallies of the voting would be released, and an announcement of results would be held until a final authorized count has been made.

Placed on the Council agends last week by Council president Edric A. Weld, Jr. '46 last week after allegations of irregularities in the recent balloting on University affiliation with the National Student Association, the entire matter of Council elections was turned over to Everingham for codification, and his recommendations are a result of a survey he has made of the setup.

The chief difficulty with the present scheme of Council elections, according to Everingham, is that every one is directed by a different Council member in charge of the topic which the balloting embraces.

While the member has laid the ground-work for the election, he has had no experience with the actual details of the voting. Everingham's recommendations would attempt to remedy the situation.
