Both student body presidential candidates say they expect the satellite student union referendum to increase voter turnout in the student elections tomorrow and Thursday.
Increased voter turnout expected
Dave Shapiro, Insight Coalition candidate, predicted that 3,500 people would vote in the election that would be 700 more votes than the Democratic 2,800 voters cast in last spring's election.
Taddee Tashpee, Vox Populares candidate, said yesterday that the fact that there are only two candidates running for president is likely a slight increase in the number of votes cast.
Bruce Woner. elections committee
chairman, said he wasn't sure what voter turnout would be.
"It doesn't seem like there's been a beck of a lot of campaigning as far as signs on campus or signs in classrooms. But I hear about it continually, and I think there's been a big effort to make the contact on the part of both the major sets of presidential candidates," he said.
Students will be voting for class officers, student body president and vice president, student senators from academic schools and the satellite union referendum. Woner will not be required to present their KU IDs and spring registration cards when they vote.
Pollls will be open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
both days in the Kansas Union Lobby,
Summerfield Hall and on the fourth floor of
Wescoe Hall near the west entrance.
Tomorrow there will also be a poll in Blake
and tomorrow there will be a poll in
Learned Hall
The Elections Committee has opened more polls for the election in an attempt to increase voter turnout.
Werner said an addition this year to the Nunamaker district polls, open from 5 to 7 winters.
On Wednesday night there will be polls at Kappa Sigma fraternity, Ellsworth Hall, Oliver Hall, Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority and Hall Sears Sellars Pearson Hall.
On Thursday night there will be district polls at Lewis Hall, Phi Kappa Theta fraternity, Phi Gamma Delta fraternity, Corbin Hall and Delta Chi fraternity.
Wonen said the reason for the additional polls was the low voter turnout in the past.
Tasheef said she was satisfied with the way her campaign had progressed.
"Hopefully, we'll reach a few more voters, and that's the name of the game as far as the Elections Committee is concerned," he said.
Shapiro said that his campaign was hitting a peak at the proper time, but that he should have started organizing about three weeks earlier.
Special funds buy variety of dorm services
By LIZ LEECH

Residence halls at the University of Kansas have an option giving them flexibility in purchasing equipment and improve their living and social attractions.
Several residence halls have taken advantage of this option by buying everything from library books to mountain climbing equipment, darkrooms to living room lights, lounge furniture to soundproofed rooms, and Fooseball tables to tennis nets.
All residence halls have vandalism and special improvement funds that can be used for whatever the halls want if there is damage. The program director of housing, said Sunday.
Because the fee was included in each contract, Hill said, the amount of money each hall has in its fund depends on the number of residents in the hall.
MCCOLLUM HALL, which has about 700 residents, recently purchased some mountain climbing equipment. Dave Mitchell of McColum Hall president, said. It cost about $100.
"Last year we didn't use all of our money, and we had between $7,000 and $10,000 left."
He said that the hall's senate decided what to purchase, and that the 26 senators were supposed to talk to the other residents to determine what they wanted.
"I fear that sometimes we aren't representative, but the best we (the five officers of the hall) can do is encourage the clerk to talk to people in their wing," Barclay said.
However, Barclay said the senate recognized the problem and had taken five surveys about what activities and facilities people wanted.
DAN KUNSETVSKY, a former senator in
Mollum, said he responded to responses
from the campaign.
"People sometimes get tired of looking at surveys and they just throw them away," he said. "And some decisions might not be representative of the whole hall because it would be impossible to get anything that would please everyone."
KUNSETVSKY SAID surveys indicated a large percentage of residents favored but did not support a new policy.
"I was going to vote against it because I didn't think it would represent the whole group, but because of the surveys I voted for it," he said.
Kusnetsky said the hall was also planning to build a $6,000 darkroom.
Hashing Hall has also been able to purchase some materials for van-ware.
Jim Stringer, Hashing Hall president, said the Hashing executive board and floor representatives had thought of things which, but residents also contributed ideas.
"The board tries to find out specifics, like what something would cost, and then we put a referendum for students to put comments on," he said.
STRINGER SAID if most responses were favorable, the board would find the exact costof the purchase to make sure it wouldn't cost more than had been anticipated.
Last year, Hashinger soundproofed its seven music practice rooms, and is now considering a dance barre, a game room and new lounge furniture.
Lyle Elliott, Oliver Hall president, said Oliver's executive board had also taken surveys to find out what the residents wanted.
He said the floor representatives and
executive board took two or three additional surveys to reduce the choices, and the representatives at Oliver did a good job of consulting with other residents about needs.
"When you live with 30 other people on your floor, it isn't that difficult to find out where you are."
Bob McBride, Templein Hall treasurer,
said communication between residents and
their employers is key.
He said that although there was about $8,000 left in Tempill's vandalism and
special purchases fund, nothing had been purchased this year.
He said, however, that the hall government was considering buying new lobby companies.
Joseph R. Pearson Hall has about 300 residents and uses the same survey and communication process as 'ne' other halls to determine what to purchase with its funds.
Mark Olson, JRP treasurer, said, "If there's someone else out there, then you can count on them."
