EDITOR'S NOTE: THE INFORMATION BELOW, TAKEN FROM INTERVIEWS THE OBSERVER CON­ DUCTED WITH THE TWO TICKETS, FIRST APPEARED IN MONDAY'S ELECTION SUPPLEMENT.

Class/ Major: Cesaro is a finance and CAPP major; Selak is a govern­ ment/international studies and American studies major. Peter IN THEIR WORDS Campaign Slogan: "Putting Students First." Most Important Idea: Improving student services, including the CESARO spelling out of student rights, getting a non-voting student on the Board of Trustees, adjusting the meal plans and improving communication between student government and students. Most Feasible: Working to change the dining plan and privatizing SafeRide, giving student drivers paid positions and extending the service to "popular going-out nights." Least Feasible: Getting a student member to sit on the Board of Trustees. Notable Quote: "We want to take the government to the students and increase communication so that people aren't saying 'What does student gov­ ernment do?'" Prior Experience: Cesaro is Knott Hall co-president and served previ­ ously as the Planner Hall freshman representative, sophomore class president and student senator. Selak is sophomore class vice president, co-chairs the social concerns committee and previously served as freshman class secretary. WHERE THEY STAND Student-administration Relations -Would push for a non-voting student member of the Board of Trustees. Inner-workings of Government -They believe the student govern­ ment's executive cabinet has great potential for achievement and "could be such a powerful tool." Gender Relations - The pair sees the Women's Resource Center as playing a larger role on campus; they want to increase funding, publicity and office space for the center. Diversity - They feel this topic can be more easily addressed by "bringing students together" through forums and similar activities; increase accessibility for disabled students. Andrea Off-campus Students - Cesaro and Selak stress the need for off-cam­ pus presidents to sit on the Hall Presidents' Council, and stated that creation of "block captains" can help publicize student government activities to various SELAK apartment complexes.

Class/Major: Williams is a junior history and philosophy double major; Reising is a sophomore communications and government/international studies double major. Brandon IN THEIR WORDS Campaign Slogan: "Making it Happen." Most Important Idea: To improve race relations at Notre Dame by WILLIAMS attracting prominent speakers to campus to address issues of diversity. Most Feasible: Improving the availability and accessibility of food services and increasing the convenience of book purchases with the use of a more exten­ sive on-line service. Least Feasible: They feel their research proves the feasibility of all of their goals. Notable Quote: "We still haven't seen what the (new) constitution can do." Prior Experience: Williams represents Zahm Hall in the Student Senate and is a member of the Campus Life Council; he also chairs the CLC's diversity committee. As a sophomore, Williams sat on HPC as co-president of Zahm Hall. Heising represents P.E. in the Student Senate, and also has experience with the Student Union Board and, as a freshman, served as a class representative and class vice president. WHERE THEY STAND Student-administration Relations - Placing a student on the University's Board of Trustees is "overwhelmingly important,:' and they would push for a voting member. They also hope to resolve issues of enumerated stu­ dent rights in regards to academics and interaction with Student Affairs. Inner-workings of Government - Williams and Reising agree with constitutional changes that emphasize the separation of policy-making and pro­ gramming within the Student Senate and Hall Presidents' Council respectively. Gender Relations - Pursuing expanded cooperation with SMC student government; access to 24-hour space also a key issue. Reising is a member of the senate's gender relations committee. Diversity - Ideas include introductory prejudice reduction workshops, attraction of nationally prominent speakers and increased interaction between students and female professors that are both insightful and feasible. Julie Off-campus Students - Acknowledging the inevitability of students moving off campus, they plan to distribute a regular newsletter, accentuating the importance of contact between the vice president and the off-campus senator to keep those students informed.

LA PAZ, Bolivia A rnudslide blamed on El Nino's heavy rains dumped tons of mud and rocks on a gold mine camp near Bolivia's border with Peru early Wednesday, killing as many as 50 people, officials said. Hescue crews recov­ ered 19 bodies by midafternoon, presidential press secretary Patricia Balda told The Associated Press. Twenty-one more miners were missing and ft~ared dead, she said. The death toll could reach 50, said the head of tho civil defense agency, Carlos Montero. Hescue efforts were suspended after dark Wednesday night but were to resume first thing Thursday, Montero said. In addition, rain continued to fall in the area, provoking a fear of new landslides. "This makes it urgent to rescue the survivors," he said. The mudslide occurred in the Mocotoro camp in th1~ Tipuani mountains, about 140 miles northwest of the Bolivian capital, La Paz. Helicopter pilots who flew over the area reported seeing a number of survivors and threw food and other supplies to them, Montero said.
