Extra Voters Create Problem
Mathia Works on Election
By MIKE BAUER
Kansan Staff Writer
The additional eight to nine thousand people expected to vote in Douglas County this year has been based on observations on the county clerk's office.
For the past two weeks the office has devoted one per cent of its budget to investigating what will continue to do so until the election, said Delbert Matina.
Mathia said that he and two assistants had been working
continually on the election for the past six weeks.
Many of the election workers at the polls will be volunteers, but two other full-time employees have been hired by the county to assist with the additional burden of voter registration. Matha said.
THIS IS THE first election in which the county clerk's office has handled registration. Before, the office handled registration.
The desirability of geographic representation on the Lawrence City Commission was discussed by many area residents in a meeting with members of the school Tuesday at East Height School.
About 425 volunteers, 54 more volunteers than in 1968, will be
Residents Seek Changes On the City Commission
The office has been registering voters, making up ballots, handling requests for absentee ballots, setting up poll locations, making ballot boxes, preparing for a special poll with the political parties and gathering supplies. Matthia said.

The meeting was the first of a series of five meetings scheduled by the commission to discuss possible changes in its structure.
involved in counting the ballots in the 40 precincts in Douglas County. The volunteers work on night, but the county clerk's office would be open for months to organize the election proceedings. Mathia said.
"We feel like we're being dictated to by the City Commission, but we're fighting it," Robert Amell of 1716 Brook "All the commissioners are from the west side of town and live in a very geographical representation."
THE COMMISSION is responding to urges from the Community Relations Sleeping Bridge Women Voters to expand the City Commission to seven members, districts and three elected at large, so that the probability of citizen participation and leadership
All five commissioners emphasized throughout the meeting that city government should consider a change in the form of city government. Currently the city operates under the city manager form of government.
"WE'RE NOT trying to tell you we want a change," Mayor John Emick told a crowd of about 20 persons. "We're not unhappy with the way the commission is doing, but we know things the commission has accomplished in the last eight years."
The purpose of the meetings, the experiences, the thoughts of the community were. Emick discussed several ways the structure of the commission could be improved.
"A charter ordinance to the commission can result in almost any kind of commission," Emick said.
Several area residents indicated a desire to change the form of government, not the structure of the commission.
"Iget the impression I'm being sold a prepackaged version of the new city government," said John BINham of 1830 Barker.
COMMISSIONER CHARLES Fisher said that none of the commissioners had made any changes to the law regarding government Lawrence should have, but were only interested in community opinion concerning enforcement.
"We have never considered a change in the city manager form of government," said Commissioner J. R. Pallium.
HE SAID that his most difficult job was finding places to set up the voting booths. He said that when they were so hard to find that the old city building would have to be used, even though it does not work.
Several advantages and disadvantages of geographic representation to the commission were mentioned.
About 1,500 absentee ballots will be sent out,Mathia said.
Wayne Coye of 127 E. 17 said that members of the ages of 18 and 21 were registered to vote in Lawrence and would present problems in geographical areas.
"Students wouldn't know who to vote for," Coe said, "they could be easily swoured.
COMMISSIONER JACK Rose supported the current policy of requiring all officers "if elected at large, you look at Commissioners." Commissioner Nancy Ham.
Commissioner Nancy Hambleton agreed.
"You don't have to reward a particular area if you are elected at large." Hambleton said.
Four other meetings are scheduled. The next meeting is at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 26 at Pinkney School, B10 W.8th. Dates for the remaining three meetings are: Nov. 1, West Junior High, N.J.
—Nov. 2, South Junior High,
2734 Louisiana.
The red tape involved in absence ballots is tremendous, he said. A person who sends a sentence ballot has to be sent to the person desiring a bailout and when the application is returned, the clerk's office has to send out a response.

This year the absence ballots

Before, the ballots were taken to

ALLEN FIELD HOUSE will accommodate three election boards this year instead of the four that are usually held past elections. Mathia said that there is such a voting increase in the race that she will be tripped in the field house.
Matiaa said that even with the people working to get the returns in quickly, a final total of 18 million would be unworn until the morning of Nov. 8.
One reason for the delay, is that write-ins slow up the counting of three hours, because the sad Pair is that the writer ins- is that the name written in the ballot is usually a joke for every name has to be recorded.
Election night the votes are tubulated at each precinct and the office clerk counts the county clerk's office. The office then tabulates the totals from the rolls.
All of the meetings begin at 7:30 p.m.

Rock Chalk Scripts OKd by Committee
By LINDA CHAPUT Kansan Staff Writer
The deadline for the first production drafts was Oct. 6.
Living groups whose members christened Chi and Shi Beta Phi; Ki Kappa Theta and Delta Delta; Hashinger Residence Ha Beta Delta; Epsilon Delta; Delta Upsilon and Delta Gamma; Naismith Residence Alpha Chi Omega; Alpha KappaLambda and Chi Omega; Kappa Sigma and Gamma Pi Biota; and Delta Chi and Kappa Kappa
Ten scripts containing rough production drafts were submitted and approved by the KU-Y for the 1973 Rock Chalk Revue, acadei Dave Stites, Manhattan senior and Rock Chalk producer.
"We would not require a group to change its ideas but we would strongly recommend it if we do so, because we really offensive." Sites said.
Members of the KUY, the Commission on the Status of Women and the Racial Awareness Co-Op read the instructions to check them for jokes with racial sexism implications, Sites said.
"From these first scripts it is becoming emphasizing quality and entertainment," he said. "Some have tried very innovative ideas, and others have taken a合
Sites said he had met with members of all the groups to return the scripts, discuss questions on staging and production.
Sites said there had been no duplication of ideas in the scripts. Many times a group is forced to change music or plans because they are too similar to those of another group, he said. In the case of "The Beatles," the idea is used by the group that has done the most work to develop it.
"We were surprised that all of the groups had done so much work before the first deadline," he said. "They are all working with our leaders and are full of questions about what their competitors are doing."
"We also were very pleased with the progress of Hashinger and Naismith," he said, "They have never participated in Rock Chalk, and they don't seem to be interested in what the should be doing."
Members of the KU-Y staff are not allowed to discuss the scripts of one group with another, he said.
"Because of this they are really coming up with some good plans."
Sites said that the second group must turn in almost completely finished scripts and have their music and lyrics near the door. Groups
The final deadline for scripts is Dec. 8.
