The dispute over the age limit was a result of election procedures established by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and Gardner planned to challenge the regulation."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_91_46_0000-Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Tribal%20Elections,%201971/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_91_46_0008_thumbnail.jpg "Update on Choctaw Elections and Creek Problem: Call from Wilma Victor")
