MINUTES OF THE CONVENTION 39

especially to Mrs. Willard Krueger, who though she was
not a member of the committee, served well as its
secretary. Following this, Pastor Willard Krueger, secre-
tary of the committee, read the names of nominees for
the various offices and boards.

During the discussion it became apparent that a
decision would have to be made regarding the election of
members to boards for five- or two- year terms. The
delegates agreed to a procedure whereby those elected
for five- year terms and two- year terms would be
determined on the basis of the number of votes received,
those receiving the highest number of votes being
elected to five-year terms as required for membership on
the board.

Delegates were reminded that nominations made
from the floor would have to be accompanied by the
required documentation, including the consent of the
nominee to serve in the office if elected. A list of
