GOP Committee Awaits HYRC Action by Deans

Founder of HYRC Will Arrive Today

Massachusetts State Republican Chairman Charles Gibbon, Republican candidate for lieutenant governor in last fall's election, said yesterday that any action the State Committee would take concerning the present HYRC election controversy would come after action by the University. He said he had released no further comment on the matter.

Gibbon stated that he had been misrepresented in the 11:30 p.m. WHRB newscast of Feb. 27. He denied having told WHRB the following things which were broadcast over the station: that he was disturbed by the HYRC dispute, that the State Committee was planning to look into the matter further, and that action would come only after a report of the special HYRC investigating committee. Gibbon said that he had not even heard of the special committee.

In a telephone conversation yesterday, Rusher told the CRIMSON that he was not coming specially for the HYRC election.

Rusher plans to leave Sunday.

In other HYRC activity, Thomas Stalker '58 handed out a sheet reminding members that he "maintains the ability organization to settle any intra-club disputes."
