...Princeton, juniors and seniors compete for rooms in the upperclass lottery, and are free to live wherever they can. Some who do not want a meal plan choose to live in Spellman, which offers apartment-style living with kitchens in the suites. But a great majority of the upperclassmen live in dormitories without kitchens...
...most prominent incumbent to go down to defeat was Washington's Republican Governor John Spellman, 57, who was initially considered the favorite in his bid for a second term. But in September, Tacoma-area County Executive Booth Gardner, 48, came out of nowhere not only to win the Democratic nomination in the state's open primary but also to attract enough crossover Republican votes to embarrass the Governor. Gardner, heir to a Weyerhaeuser lumber fortune, styles himself a "citizen politician." He traveled through the state like a breath of fresh Cascades air, accusing Spellman of creating buck-passing...

There are relatively few high-profile gubernatorial races in 1984, in part because only 13 states are picking a chief executive and most incumbents running for re-election are safe. One who is not, however, is Washington's John Spellman, 57, a Republican.
