The elections will consist of aU re presentative Freshman positions which are that of President, Vice- President and five Represen tatives. Candidates of current Sen ior standing will be needed to fill one position on The Board of Student Publications. ‘ ‘Night School” representatives will be elected. As of this date, the to tal number of night students (stu dents who take more hours at night than during the day) has not been determined, and since the number of “night students” de- terminds the number of seats they may in the Student Legislature (one position for every 75 night students or a fraction thereof), the number to be elected will be determined at least two weeks before the election. However, this does not limit the number of can- idates who may run. Now it will be necessary to explain who may vote for whom. First of all, cmly “day” students (those taking more hours during the day than at night) cannot vote for “night” positions, and “night” students can vote only for “night” positions. However, all currently enrolled students (both “day” and “night”) may vote for the Senior seat in the Board of Student Pub- licaticMis. In order for a candidate to have his name appear on the ballot, he must file with a member of the Elections Committee, This is termed the Nomination period. The dates for the Nomination Period are Monday through Wednesday, October 16 through 18th. All can didates must fiU out nomination forms at the Union desk where an election Committee member will be present. For Freshman candidates, and Senior candidates interestedinThe Board of Student Publications, the Nomination period will begin at 8:30 a.m. on Monday, October 16th with closing time being 4:00 p.m. On Tuesday 17th, and Wednesday 18th, the times will be the same as Monday 16th, but Wednesday, October 18th 4:00 p.m. is the dead line, and a candidate nor register ing by this time will not have his name appear on the ballot.

Dwayne Spitzer, Chair man of the University Union says, “It is hoped that the outcome of good attendance will be a Green Garter Room with local talent to be held just after the home bas- ketbaU games.” Watch for the large ballrai on top of the Union on Monday, October 6 —the Green Garter will be here. freedom to the artist and it ex presses her moods and feelings at the moment.

The Carolina Journal and the 1968 Rogues ‘n Rascals are co-sponsoring a contest designed to raise school spirit and whiskers. Beginning and ending December 8, all men on campus are invited, no, challenged to attempt to grow the best beard at UNC-C. The winning Forty-niner will be selected by a panel of judges in time for crowning of the winner at the Christmas Dance. Union Director Bren ton Steele and art instructor Eric Anderson have already consented to act as judges and it is hoped that Dr. Sch- lecta and Dr, Bush can also be persuaded to judge. The winner will be present ed with a surprise prize and will be the subject of a story (with photo) in the Journal and a full page in the ‘68 Rogues ‘ Rascals. On the day of the judging, contestants will be expected to dress like a 49er. This contest could be a substantial rallying point to awaken the dormant god of school spirit and encourage apathists and thinkers to be come activists and doers. We expect to see evidence of whiskers on all sides soon. It takes no work. Just sit back and watch ‘em grow!
