Doan sweeps nominating convention
ADELE SALTZMAN
assistant to the editor
Al Doan captured more than a
three-to-one lead in the
presidential race at the
Associated Students nominating
convention last Thursday night.
David Gadwa, James Laxdal
and Doan were nominated for
the AS presidency and will all be
on the ballot in next
Wednesday's election.
John Ward outpolled Greg
Baker in the vice presidential
nomination. Both will be on the
ballot. Ruth McConnell was also
nominated for the position, but
she declined.
College President Charles J.
Flora opened the convention
with his keynote address
Wednesday night and urged the
delegates to, "listen (to the
candidates) . .. hear and
understand what they say."
The delegates did listen to
what the candidates said, and
selected 10 nominees to fill the
five legislative openings.
Legislative candidates who
will be on the ballot include Gail
Denton, Wally Oyen, Jim
Eberhart, Neil Porter, Gary
Evans, Pat Shallow, Bruce
Gaza way, Jon Walker, Bob
Partlow and Reed Craig.
Anyone can write-in their
own candidate for any office at
the election, AS President Noel
Bourasaw said.
The write-in candidate's first
and last name must be spelled
correctly in order for the vote to
be valid> he added.
Sen. Martin Durkan
(D-Issaquah) gave the keynote
speech Thursday night.
During a short recess after his
talk, the senator spoke
informally with small groups of
students on his plans and ideas
for state government.
Delegations at the convention
were designated by living areas:
on-campus dorms and halls,
approved housing and other
off-campus living groups.
After the nominations
Wednesday the delegations
submitted legislative- motions
and Thursday the convention
passed some of the bills, with
the delegates acting as the
Legislative body.
Due to lack of time, the
convention moved to postpone
consideration of 10 of the bills
proposed.
The convention will
reconvene to vote on the
remaining bills at 7:30 p.m.
Thursday.

Convention reconvenes
The legislative portion of the 1969 Nominating
Convention will continue at 7 p.m., Thursday,
according to convention officials.
Due to the higher-than-expected interest in
legislation and the long amount of time the
process was taking, the convention delegates voted
to finish the debate this week.
Seven bills were passed by the 200 delegates
present last Thursday and 10 bills remain to be
considered.
Bills to be considered include one to keep the
Campus Christian Ministry house standing, and
one bill to make public action of student
government agencies.
Others demand answers to specific questions
about the bookstore, ask pressure to be exerted
against landlords who require year-long rent
contracts, endorse non-violent dissent and suggest
the formation of an interclass council.
Still others endorse the reconstructioning of
activities by student government, ask for
re-evaluation of general education requirements,
request information concerning lighting around
Carver gymnasium and urge the formation of a
central campus ticket box office.
Delegates who attended the two-day session last
week will be the first admitted to Thursday's
convention, but anyone else may sign up as a
delegate at the VU desk before 7 pjn. Thursday,
to fill any empty seats in his living group
delegation.
Delegates will be allocated according to the
same rules as last week's convention and the total
may not exceed the number present at the final
roll-call on last Wednesday night.
