Two candidates Devon Biggs and Malcolm McSporran, are each standing for two positions.
The constitution says a candidate may be nominated for two positions "but can only hold one position".
Election Committee chairman Mr Armour Mitchell said he didn't know what procedure would be followed if a person actually topped the poll in two contests.
An interesting feature is the candidature of two brothers and two sisters.
Candy McGrath and Gus Bradshaw have been elceted unopposed; Helen McGrath and Dan Bradshaw are seeking election.
Regardless of election results, the 1969 executive will be notable for its lack of members wilh previous exec. experience.
Two members of the present executive were unopposed; two others are candidates.
Of the eight standing for President, only Dan Bradshaw is a current exec, member; Paul Peretz was a member last year.
