**Phill Kaufman, Memphis senior, and Donna Carlisle, Paola sophomore, are expected to file later this week, Wetzel said.**
A third resident, Larry Britton, Wichita junior, is interested in filing, but he is still looking for a running mate, Wetzel said.
The deadline to file for the election is 5
n.m. Tuesday.
ELECTIONS WILL be March 4 and 9. The polls will be open in each residence hall cafeteria from 5 to 6 on both nights. The students in their respective walls, Wetzel said.
Presidential and vice presidential candidates must run as teams, and team members must be from different residence halls. she said .
If both team members are AURH Assembly members, they only need to file an election form, she said. If both are not assembly members, they must obtain 10 signatures on a petition and then file the form.
The Elections Committee is planning a debate between the candidates, tentatively scheduled for March 31.
The elections Committee has made several regulations governing the election process.
LAST YEAR's election, the first in which all residence hall members could vote for the incumbent.
'Bigfoot' hoax elicits Chetopa excitement
CHETAPA (AP)—Worried that there was not enough excitement in this tiny southeast Kansas town, Chuck Bentley left his mark in a war residents won't quickly forget.
The 20-year-old resident of nearby Oswego swiped both plywood feet, 17 inches long and 10 inches wide, went bounding across the snowy countryside, and sparked a "Big Foot" monster hunt that drew about 5,000 participants.
by a number of complaints. In the past, the HSA Assembly has elected the president and vice-president.
The spoky case was abruptly solved two days after it began when Bentley, alias "Bigfoot," appeared on the newscast of a Pittsburgh television station.
russel Tusiek, 1977 Elections Committee co-chairman, said the major problem last year was that AURH had begun direct popular elections without any formal rules set by the committee. Committee had to play it be ear, he said. Residents cast 269 ballots in that election.
Wetzel said that his year the committee had tried to anticipate problems by setting specific guidelines for write-in candidates and for complaints.
Write-in candidates will be subject to all election rules, she said.
He said he was trying to add some excitement to life in Chetopa.
**WRITE-IN** ballists must include both the first and last names of the candidates, and the ballot must be marked by the name written in, but not marked, will be invalid.
Last year, after having problems with the write-in campaign of Larry Britton and Joel Gossett, the AFL commissioner
The candidates complained because they had based their campaign on just their last names. Manilie said that the name of the lawyer told him that he had with just a last name would be valid.
write-in candidates must have first and last names on the ballot.
W.W. Lancaster Jr., Chetopa police chief,
said it was possible that as many 5,000
people - trip the population of Chetopa -
had visited the area in the last two days.
RESIDENCE HALL presidents later met and reversed the committee's ruling. Tusick said that in the end, almost every decision made concerning the placement, spelling and the completeness of the names was decided in the write-in candidates'
Problems also arose with complaints filed by the candidates.
Last year a number of complaints were made, and most of them concerned illegal campaign practices and posting of campaign literature. But there was confusion
This year, Wetzel said, all complaints must be written and submitted to her within two weeks of the incident.
THIS YEAR, anyone interested in becoming a committee chairman must submit an application. He will then be interviewed by a committee comprised of three AURH members and the two AURH advisers, who are Ann Eversole, assistant dean of women and Fred McElhene, associate dean of men.
about whether the complaints received were legal ones.
In past years, chairmen have been chosen by the committee during its first meeting. Occasionally, Wetzel said, a person had wanted a chairmanship and had friends come to the committee meeting, in effect stacking the *Lecture*. The person was the chairman by people who never returned to work on the committee, she said.
Tueckik said that in theory, the idea of a popular election was a good one but that in practice it has been a bad one.

If people in Detroit know about anything, they know about cars. Cars are what they eat, breathe and think like humans, they think about imported cars, they buy WJ Rabbits most
In fact, WM has been the best selling app in Detroit and the Rabbit has been the most important since it was introduced
Case in point; the much-hearded Ford Fiesta was somehow engineered to have only two-thirds as much trunk space as the Rabbit*. The Rabbit also stops quicker and runs quieter than the Fiesta**.
for instance. The Rabbit even outclasses some Detroit cars that are "out" of its class.
The grandiose Cadillac Seville,
for one, has less trunk space (and
less glass area) than the Rabbit
And, wonder of wonders,
Detroit's newest wonder car, the
Ford Faimant, takes IA 14 struggling
seconds to go from 0-1500 ****
The Rabbit makes it in 8.3 seconds.
These compelling facts compel a lot of Detritors to look into their Volkswagen dealers. They like they see, and drive home in [xpdbx]
At the same time, some of our best customers are the Detroit manufacturers themselves. Best we can tell, dozens of WV Rabbits are being torn apart because they make them hap. One of these years, we should see the fruits of that labor.
On the other hand, if you can't wait breathlessly for Detroit's imita-
tor, you can pour yourself into a genuine Volkswagen Rabbit this very afternoon.
