Mr. Glenn Hoffmann's third period government class is planfling a mock election to be held at school on Monday, November 4, the day before the national election. There will be voting from 7:30 a.m. until 4 p.m. in the hail in front of the cafeteria, probably one booth for each class.

Students will speak for their candidate at homeroom assemblies for each class during the week of October 28. The presidential candidates are Hubert H. Humphrey, Democrat; Richard M. Nixon, Republican; and George C. Wallace of the American Independent Party. Also on the November ballot will be Henning Blomen of the Socialist Labor Party. Mr. Hoffmann, head of the Social Science Department, added that there may be a write‑in for Eugene McCarthy.

In addition to voting for President, Maine West students will vote for governor and senator for Illinois.

Included on the senatorial ballot will be Everett Dirksen, Republican; William Clark, Democrat; and Louis Fisher of the Socialist Labor Party.

Since all districts have not turned in the required information, all of the gubernatorial candidates are not in. There are three definite candidates who will appear on the ballot, though. They are Richard B. Ogilvie, Republican; Samuel H. Shapiro, Democrat; and Edward C. Gross of the Socialist Labor Party.

Mr. Hoffmann said that the purpose of the election will be to make students aware of the national election and to gain experience in voting.
