$sup 18$O + $sup 12$C elastic-scattering excitation functions have been measured at eight angles over the energy range 12--25 MeV (c.m.). In addition, cross sections for the reaction channels $sup 12$C($sup 18$O,$alpha$$)$$sup 26$Mg(E/ sub x/=0.0--5.47 MeV) and $sup 12$C($sup 18$O, $sup 16$O)$sup 14$C were measured over nearly the same energy range. The elastic scattering exhibits the novel behavior of being dominated by odd partial waves. Correlated structures were observed at 16.6, 19.0(J/sup $pi$/=15$sup -$) and 21.8(J/sup $pi$/=17$sup -$) MeV (c.m.). (AIP)
