USA STAGING (Continued from page 1) probably been registered before, while others are from out of state. “However,” McClellan added, “if we find that we can register more than 50 per cent, we’ll do it.” McClellan said that one reason for poor student voter response is that too many students are not even aware of the procedure involved in registration. TISA’s voter campaign is be ing organized through the stu dent government agencies on col lege and university campuses. Texas A&M is not participat ing in the drive, according to Gerry Geistweidt, Student Sen ate president. Geisteweidt gave lack of time as the main reason for A&M’s non-participation. “The only thing that will be done is the drive that was done earlier this year (by A&M stu dents last November),” he said today. “I think it is an appro priate direction to move, how ever.” Geistweidt said that the Sen ate is however, thinking of par ticipating in other activities, such as the American Cancer Socie ty’s national drive on college cam puses. Eforts may also be made in the direction of combating pol lution, the student body presi dent said. Che Battalion Opinions expressed in The Battalion are those of the student writers only.
