Phil Brown, MHG President Winners in the controversial Men's House Government reelection held Tuesday, May 10, were Phil Brown, president; Rick Goforth, vice - president; Steve Loflin, secretary; and Jim Beddingfield, treasurer. The first election, held last week, was contested after it was revealed that the margin for the victor, Tom Posey, in the Presidential race was three votes. In a call for the recounting of the votes in this category it was discovered that a portion of the total ballots cast had been lost. According to one election official, it has been disclosed since, these ballots were destroyed. Due to this fact it was impossible to compute the totals for any of the offices. The totals as they stood before the recount was called were not disclosed and it is presumed that they are unknown. In light of these facts, Vice President of the Student Body Buz Helms, who was assisting with the election at the request of Charlie Stephens, current President of Men's House Government, conferred with Student and Administration leaders and the candidates involved in order to resolve the question raised concerning the legality of the results. Since the votes could not Rick Goforth, MHG Vice-Pres. be re-tallied, Helms and Stephens called for a re-election. This second election resulted in a complete reversal of the outcome of the first. Phil Brown received 459 votes over Tom Posey with 132 in the presidential race; Rick Go- forth, 220 votes over Kent Morris, the previous winner as vice-president, with 152; Steve Loflin, 351 over 239 for John Dalrymple for secretary. Dal- rymple was the winner in the contested vote. Jim Bedding- field took the treasurer's position with 390 votes to Berry Johnson's 194. The new President of Men's House Goverment, Phil Brown, is a junior Business major from Jacksonville, N. C. He is currently Vice President of Men's House and has served with MHG for the past two years as President of Robertson dormitory. He is also treasurer of Pi Kappa Alpha Colony. Rick Goforth, the new Vice- President, is a junior from Kings Mountain. He served as Treasurer of Men's House Government for the past year and is Vice-President-elect of Tau Kappa Epsilon.
