POLITICS AT WORK IN THE OLYMPIC CLUB ‘T’WO NOMINATING TICKETS ARE IN THE FIELD. For the first time in three years politics | within the Olympic Club manifested itself in a factional strife. At the annual elec- | tion of the nominating committee last night two tickets were placed in the feld. Vice President McLellan presided and a quorum of 100 members was present. The meeting was held in the club gymnasium, | and to the surprise of the old ciubmen evolved into a political fight. There was much discussion over the manner in which the ticket should be voted. Some were in favor of a composite vote on a straight ticket, others preferred a ballot for indi- viduals. The former won out after a lengthy debate on parliamentary laws. The work of the evening began when | A, M. Armstrong rose to nominate what he termed representatives of the minor- ity. He sald he represented a bulk of club members who used the clup daily, and they wanted representation. Other- | wise there would be discord and discon- tent. At first Armstrong was in mind to nominate two men, but later changed to he naming of five. Leo Pockwitz lad the opposition and he named five. Arm- strong's ticket was Frank W. Pearson, Willlam Cartwright. Al Hoffman, Roy | Welden and John Tait. Pockwitz nom- inated Tom Sawyer, Bd Zimmer, H. S. Russ, Herman Heydenfeldt and T. C. Har- dee.
