For from this group 168 will be selected to guide our legislative branch of government throughout the 100th session ot the assembly. Running for the 136 House seats are 234 Re­ publicans and 221 Democrats, while 58 GOP and 64 Democrats are bidding for the 33 seats in the Senate. In all, a total of 567 candidates arc seek­ Mr, Combe ing nomination to the legislature . 455 for the lower house and 112 for the upper body. There are 102 incumbents seeking roelection to the House, 13 Republicans to seven Democrats trying to regain their seats in the Senate. Republican candidates for 23 House seats and three sena­ torial districts have no Democratic opposition. Therefore, the officii are forfeited by the Democrats.

However, regardless of which party wins, with nine House mem­ bers of the present session aspiring for seats in the Senate, the per­ sonality of the assembly is certain to undergo a decisive change next year.
