Idaho Constituents Elect Officers
Delegates met Sunday, May 22, in Caldwell, Idaho, for the 52nd constituency session of the Idaho Conference. They elected David Prest Jr., president; Don Klinger, vice president for administration; and Gary Johnson, vice president for finance, to replace Harold Dixon, who is retiring. Johnson, currently Hawaii Conference treasurer, subsequently turned down this invitation. The conference executive committee was commissioned to elect another nominee at a June 14 meeting. Delegates also elected departmental directors, a new executive committee and a new board of education. More details will be forthcoming in the Idaho section of the August GLEANER.
