The Athletic Committee was elected on June 26th in the Shell room. The voting was very close, as will be seen from what follows:
G.V Arnold | Capt | |
M.M. Rodocanachi | (Prin Opp. next term) | |
E. Waddington | 69 | |
E.H. Alington | 60 | |
C.F. Reeks | T.B | 58 |
A.B. Cartwright | T.B | 56 |
R. C Batley | T.B | 55 |
Canvassing was used in former years almost universal, was this year all but unanimously eschewed by the candidates.
It is a great thing that each fellow should give his vote to whoever he considers fittest for the post, & should not, as before, be biased by continual promises of votes to anybody who may ask him. I hope that next year, all canvassing will be a thing of the past.
