A report on B-Funds was presented: they have been received.  A discussion
of fund-raising followed and Mr. Puckett suggested that we not even apply
for B-Funds before we have a fund-raising plan in place. 

Dr. Charlton reported that we have $150 [not an exact figure -Ed.] in the
account.  He also reminded us that approximately $50 of that will go to
the QSL card order. 

A motion was presented by Mr. Laws that "membership in the club for the
academic year 1994-1995 shall conform to the guidelines set forth in The
Student Handbook, Appendix C".  The motion was seconded by Mr. Gibson and
passed without objection. 

A motion was presented by Mr. Laws to present Charles Korzendorfer KM5G
with $25 worth of International Reply Coupons in recognition of his work
in dismantling the club's new tower on June 4, 1994.  The motion was
passed without objection. 

Nominations were then sought for club officers.  Mr. Laws nominated Mr.
McFarland as president.  The nomination was seconded by Mr. Gibson.  No
other nominations were received.  Mr. McFarland accepted and he was
elected without objection.  Mr. Mcfarland nominated Mr. Gibson as
vice-president.  The nomination was seconded by Mr. Laws.  No other
nominations were received.  Mr. Gibson accepted and he was elected without
objection.  Mr. McFarland nominated Frank Buercklin KB5WAR as Secretary/

elected without objection.
