partisan politics for A new chapter began the next day with a televised debate between Governor Albert D. Rosellini and gubernatorial candidate Daniel J. Evans in Meany Au- ditorium. The topic: education. The re- sult: mud. The outcome: a draw. The Union ' s pre-election program closed five days before the election with a partisan, educational speech by vice presidential nominee Hubert Humphrey. Students put the cap on the election pro- cedure with last minute campaigning covered by press and radio with stu- dents playing the part of the profes- sionals. It was all over but the shouting, and there was little of that, for few were surprised by the outcome. After all, they had worked hard to make the elec- tion what it was. .

Canwell and Winston left the podium to be followed the next week by a series of candidates and incumbents. Included in the entourage that crossed the campus were Senator Henry M. Jackson; Representative Thomas Pelly; 1st district democratic candidate, Dr. Ed Palmason; 7th district candidate, Brock Adams and Senatorial candidate Lloyd Andrews. A debate on issues, perhaps the only one, anywhere, was held between L. Brent Bozell, former editor of the Na- tional Review and Dr. Giovanni Costi- gan, professor of history. The topic: Liberalism vs. Conservatism. This chapter in political activity for the campus closed with a Model Election. We picked a slate of winners: Johnson, Evans, Adams, Pelly and Jackson. They won on campus; they won on Nov. 3.
