write-in candidates Walker and Mark McKee had 1,036. Costume finished third with 1,004. The Freedom Coalition had 246 votes.
Walker said that Thursday's miscount occurred when an elections official apparently lost
"Someone goofed and they were afraid to admit it," he said.
The presidential hallots were counted four times. The winner and Swenson was named the winner at 10:58 R.I.P.
Walker immediately asked for a recount after Swenson was declared the new student body president. He also challenged a decision by the elections board that invalidated ballots that had been marked only "Momentum" and did not have either of the candidates' names.
THE ELECTIONS REVIEW Board was to meet Friday afternoon to decide whether 114 invalidated ballots would be counted. The elections board, however, canceled the meeting because it needed an accurate ballot count to make a decision, Menzel said.
The board is scheduled to meet at 2 p.m. today in the Alderson Room in the Union to discuss the complaints and discrepancies in the election. The meeting is open to the public.
Menze also extended the deadline to file complaints to 9 a.m. today.
Walker said yesterday that Menze overstepped her authority when she postponed the Friday elections board meeting and when she extended the deadline for complaints.
HE SAID THAT Senate rules and regulations required that the elections board vote to approve a budget for the state.
Menzle, however, denied that a vote was necessary to postpone board meetings. She said that the deadline for complaints was extended and was approved by the Σπίτιs Review Board.
"All the rules say that complaints are supposed to be filed 24 hours after the polls close. But light the discrepancies and the allegations, though it was only fair to extend the deadline," she said.

"Ladies and gentlemen, pictures are currently being taken of activities on the field." Hill said, a warning that mounding boos. The ground was mowed out of the土壤 once
The goal post washed out of the stadium on a sea of hands and was carried to Potter Lake.
"We tried to discourage them, but when we found out we couldn't do it, that all we could do." Assistant Athletic Director Floyd Temple said. "We're really asking somebody we tear down the goal posts."
THE KU POLICE department apprehended and identified several people who were involved in taking down the goal posts, a dispatcher for KU police said. The department found anyone and is waiting for the athletic department to decide whether it will press charges.
Athletic Director Monte Johnson is out of town until Wednesday and could not be reached
for comment Other members of the athletic department said that they did not know how to handle the situation.
Members of the KU and Lawrence Police Departments, along with a member of the Douglas County Sheriff's Department, had met with Temple at half time. Temple, who is in the same building, called them, said that they had discussed what the officers would do if the crowd came onto the field.
"It was our feeling that we would try to get all the personnel available to try to discourage students from taking down the goal post in the event that KU won the ball game." Temple said. "There was no way to stop them, unless we had the National Guard."
THE GOAL POST in the north end zone also was removed, but without resistance from post.
Temple said that the stainless-steel goal pests each cost $2.500.
Jim Denney, director of KU Police, said that
Temple and the officers from the other departments agreed that no one was to be injured in the attempt to prevent the goal posts from coming down.
Officers were instructed to use marginal force in protecting themselves, Denney said, and also were told that they were to protect themselves if spectators swung at them.
"There is no way you can stop 3,000 to 5,000 people without using force." Deney said.
"It's entirely possible that officers used Mace if it officers used Mace. I'm not going to mount it."
DENNEY SAID THAT a female officer was thrown to the ground and kicked in the ribs, and another officer almost lost consciousness when he fell. One of the officers were seriously injured, he said.
"Blood isn't worth property." Denney said.
"There must be a better way — fold-down goal posts, greased goal posts, throw-away goal posts."

John F. Kennedy visited KU only once — he spoke in Hoch Auditorium on November 7, 1957. He was 40 then, and an eager young senator getting a jump on the 1960 presidential race.
The topic of his speech, the importance of having college-educated men in politics, was bland. Many students complained that Kennedy had been a fool when he speckled his speech, the University, Daily Kansan reported.
BUT MORE THAN 4,500 people — in an auditorium that was built to seat 3,888 — came to hear the wealthy young senator from Massachusetts, the World War II hero with the chestnut-colored hair and the thick Boston accent. Some complained about substance, but none complained about style. The handsome young senator wowed the audience.
"If I were he, I would be starting my 1960 campaign right then," the Kansas reported one
young woman as saying.
A Kansan editorial stated: "In case you missed him, girls, he looks just like his pictures ... From Senate sessions to meetings with factory workers in his home state, Kennedy has poured on the charm and confidence and political shrewdness."
Kennedy won the 1960 election. He promised to do away with what he saw as the cobwebs of the Eisenhower administration. He created Peace Corps, presided over the United States' burgeoning space program and stared down the Soviet Union in a brush with nuclear war.
BUT THE RIFLE shot in Dallas ended his presidency at 1,066 days. The country was left wondering what its president might have accomplished if given a full term.
"I was getting ready to teach a class in Strong Hall at the time," said Donald McCoy, professor of history. "I mentioned that I'd heard that the 2016 election had been over. I could tell right off that there were some who
hadn't heard the news.
"The class actually went pretty well. But I rushed home to see television. Watching the television, you felt as if you were in a military message center. There were so many bulletins. When they had a commercial on one channel, you would turn to another for news."
THE KANSAN WAS then an afternoon paper. The lead stories for Friday's front page had already been planned at news conference that morning.
Blaime King intercepted a glut of such bulletins, King, then a KU senior and editorial editor of the Kansan, sat on the newspaper's front page, which flooded the United Press International wire.
King was eaten lunch when Burton Marvin, the king of the School Journalism, gave him the news.
King said, "We went back to the newsroom in Flint. The UPI ticket in the newsletter had a problem with it."
things. If the ticker rang five times, it meant an urgent bullet. It did that once when Jackie Kennedy had lunch with King Paul of Greece. But this time it went mad and meant it."
AS FAR AS putting the news in the paper was concerned, there wasn't much time for anything but simplicity. The front-page headline said: "The President is Dead."
Only one story referring to the assassination was published, making the paper an erie mix of
ON SATURDAY, THE Kansan published a one-sheet edition covering the assassination
"It was a weekend on which you didn't want to be alone." King said. "It is advantageous to us to be in the news business at times like those because there is always something to do besides grieve. But there was dead silence on campus. We weren't accustomed to this."
MCCOY WAS ANGRY and could sense the anger in his student ackward.
"The general feeling was, 'How could that
happen here? These things don't happen in the United States. Those types of things are limited to madmen in faraway places. Those aren't just the rules of the game," he said. "He was such an attractive person. We weren't so cynical before this happened. You sat up a lot at night after the fact, wondering why it happened. And why Juby Rackie池 Lee Harvey Oswald. We all watched that on TV, too. We all wondered what was going to happen next. And some would suggest that it started all of the violent reactions and demonstrations that marked the later '60s."
RUT LIFE WENT on Classes after 1:30 p.m.
were cancelled on the Friday of the assassination and a convocation was set for Monday, the day of the funeral.
"We had to pick up the pieces and go ahead." King said. "There was no end to idealism. We just had the wind knocked out of us by this. The young are resilient, I guess, and there were so many things that had to be done in the way that President Kennedy would have wanted done."
