Election Committee
Requires Three Photos
Turned in Monday at 5
Three application pictures of
candidates running in the fall elec
tion must be turned in by Monday
at 5 p. m. to Marjorie Bruning
at the Daily Nebraskan office,
Dick Harnsberger, chairman of the
student council elections commit
tee announced yesterday.
The three pictures are necessary
since the council makes up three
posters of all candidates pictures
which will be placed in the Union,
social sciences and on ag cam'
pus.
This idea was first used last
year when the council needed some
method of campaigning which
would be fair for all candidates.
This is the only method candidates
may use in campaigning in any
way or their names will be with
drawn from the slate.
Filings close today at 5 p. m. in
John K. Selleck s office in the con
seum. Junior, senior and sopho
more class presidency positions
are open at well as the Nebraska

The elections will be held Oct. 28
The extra time was given stu
dents to get pictures in since the
elections committee felt that the
pictures could not be in by 5 p. m
tomorrow. Monday at 5 p. m. is
the absolute deadline for these
however. Any who can turn in
their pictures before then should
do so on Saturday.
