[Laughter]
Uh oh.. here comes Madelyn.
Oh please, little miss perfect
Hi, my name is Madelyn and I'm running for freshman class president!
Would you sign my petition for..
Madelyn Spaulding, could you

Hello

Hello
My name is Madelyn Spaulding
Madelyn
I know
We're in the same homeroom
Then you may also know that I'm running for freshman president!
Good for you!
Well I better
And if elected, I will do all I can to make Dakota Union a school of which everyone can be proud
In fact I've drawn up a description of my platfrom that includes 32 issues
Item one, uniforms!
Madelyn
To keep distractions..
such as inappropriate clothing
or social pressures from negatively impacting the educational environment
[whisle]
Gotta run!

One signature down...
49 to go.

Come one!
Your new morning workout?
No!.. this peice of junk is..
busted again!
Back off "De La Hoya"
Let me try
[Static electricity noise]
A gentle jump start and away..
[Laughter]
Yeah, that fixed it!
Man, those machines have been funky all year!
But does the school repair them?
No!
"I'm sorry Mr. Folly, that is a low priority item"
[Laughter]
For them maybe
Maybe we should tell Madelyn Spaulding to add it to her campaign platform
That control freak?!
Last week she came up to me at launch and critized the way I was chewing
Hey
maybe you should run for president
You know.. on a fix the snack machines crusade
hmm
That's not a bad idea
And as a bonus
I get to give Miss high and mighty Madelyn a little competition
Deal !
Are tired of snack machines that don't work?
Are you hungry for change
and.. maybe a burrito?
Then vote for Richie Folly
Your next freshman class president
That's right fellow students
No longer will we go without our chips,
our soda's, our cream filled treats!
Excuse me
"Fix the vending machines"?
You call that a platform?
He already has enough signatures to qualify as a candidate
He does?
