In the Central States (District III) three nominees for a vacancy on the Alumni Council are: Philip K. Watson '19 of Detroit, Henry S. Embree '30 of Chicago, and Robert E. Cowden Jr. '32 of Dayton.

In the process of filling other vacancies on the Council coming up in June three new members have been nominated without contest for first terms of two years.
