DAILY CLASSIF IEDS
BRING QUICK RESULTS

By JEFF DAYj
The Graduate Employes Or-
ganization (GEO) s i g n e d a
tentative agreement with the
University last night providing
for automatic deduction of union
dues from paychecks.
The two sides have been in
agreement on the issue for some
time, but various technical de-
tails have delayed final ap-
proval.
DURING most of the meeting
however, GEO began re-intro-
ducing demands which the Uni-
versity had dropped from con-
sideration. Most of these pro-
posals were concerned with
working conditions and union
facilities and had been rejected
because of cost considerations.
The demands which drew the
most University fire were de-
mands for free office space for
the union, access to University
centrex phones, space for meet-

ings and parking permits to be
used on conducting official union
business.
The University objected to the
demands again on the basis of
cost and the fear that other
unions would have to be granted
the same thing.
"WE'RE NOT in the business
of supporting any labor union
with facilities. We are in the!

IN REPRESENTING the de-
mands, the GEO dropped back
from their earlier positions
somewhat, in an attempt to
make the positions more agree-
able to the University.
The proposals presented in-
cluded demands that:
-all graduate student em-
ployes be given desk space,
where possible, a retreat fi om

eligible voters cast ballots in
the last off-year elections, in
1970.
This time, apathy and politi-
cal disenchantment spawned by
Watergate, and even some rainy
weather in the East and Mid-
west, seemed likely to hold the
turnout even lower.
The level of participation will
not be known for several days,
but as President Ford noted,
some surveys indicate a turn-
out of only 40 per cent of the
electorate.
iIf that is the case, Ford said
inan election-eve statement,
the 94th Congress which will
have to deal with major eco-
nomic woes could be chosen by
only 21 per cent of the voters.
F o r d' s personal campaign
spanned nearly 17,000 miles,
covering 20 states, and he made
inflation his theme. Watergate,
the scandal that brought the
appointed President to office,
was always in the background
as he warned against election
decisions that could undermine
the two-party system.
He raised the spectre of run-
away, inflation-fueling spending
by a "veto-proof Congress" with
Democratic margins that could
overrule him by the required
two-thirds votes.
Pollsters and candidates were
virtually unanimous: r i s i n g

(Continued from Page 1) der agreed, saying "Being a
woman helped McClary to vic-
DEMOCRATIC Party worker tory."

Tom Wieder cited Fojtik's in-
cumbency and major party
status as advantages in her
success. "And despite the stuff
dumped on her by the HRP she
came across," he added.
Wieder also asserted that the
relatively large voter turnout
probably helped Foitik, "since
the small core HRP vote was
overcome."
In the 15th district McClary
won handily in an area thought
to be strongest in favor of
HRP. In that race, City Council-
woman Kathy Kozachenko cited
a tendency of voters to vote
for a woman over a man. Wie-
Was7;s

BOTH WIEDER and Koza-
chenko agreed that the turnout
generally helped the Demo-
crats. "The HRP always finds
it difficult to educate people
as to who we are. Two months
is not sufficient and in the end
we are always the underdog."
Wegbreit said, "The only thing
that could have beat me was
straight Democratic voting -
and it did. The system is rigged
for two parties and its really
hard to win as a third party
candidate.
In other county commissioner
races, Republicans appeared to
have won districts two, three,
four, ten, eleven and twelve.
Democrats appeared to have
sewed up districts five, six,
seven, eight and nine, and 13.
The first district, usually a
strongly Republican area, ap-
pears to have a democrat lead.
