Sawyer said since the drive began on Sept. 15, more than $20,000 has been collected. The drive is expected to be com pleted on Nov. 1. Most of the money has been col lected from the Texas A&M Univer sity division, he said. At the College Station fund drive meeting on Tuesday, Haskell Mon roe, chairman of the Texas A&M division, reported contributions to the College Station drive totaling $14,085.25. The faculty and staff of the uni versity have also donated $11,916.75 to the Bryan-Brazos County United Way fund drive. Sawyer said the contributions to both drives from the Texas A&M division this year are already higher than last year’s total. The Retired People s division of the drive also has surpassed last year’s total. The money collected from the College Station drive will go to 15 agencies in the Bryan-College Sta tion area. They include: the College Station Recreation Council, Community House Inc., Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts and the Brazos County Community Council. Other agencies are the Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP), Brazos Valley Rehabilitation Cent er, Brushy Day Care Center, Cent ral Brazos Valley Mental Health Center and Red Cross.

Strauss became national Democratic chairman in the wake of the? party s 1972 disaster, he brought with liim a conservative image and a determination to unify its sharply divided ranks. In the three years since, the weal th) , fast-talking Texas lawyer has embraced a considerable measure of party reform, while keeping the backing of regulars who put him into office. As a result, except for a few dis gruntled members, most Democ rats seem determined to put the fac tional battles of the past seven y ears behind them. “I think the part) is really in terested in doing every thing it can to stay together, said San Francisco lawy er Fred Forth, one of the par ty's more outspoken advocates of Some of Strauss liberal critics, led by Texas Committeewoman Bil lie Carr, said Wednesday they are considering a court case against some provisions in the new rules. Their prospects are not considered bright. A more serious threat woidd come if the rules become caught up in the part) s unfolding presidential battle. That is what has happened in the past. The original reform effort in the 1969-72 period grew out of the con tention of Sen. Eugene J. McCar thy s backers that they had been cheated in 1968 both by the misuse and absence of clear rules. The 1972 rules reflected the de sire to end the abuses and insure a space for under-represented groups, including women, blacks and young people. The) were there at the conven tion in record numbers in 1972, many backing Sen. George McGovern. But the virtual “quota system that was responsible stirred a backlash among elected officials, labor leaders and some ethnic groups, many opposed to McGovern.

Humphrey s backers in controling the Credentials Commit tee created new controversies. Research & Term Papers, Theses, Dissertations When Strauss was put into office by the anti-McGovern elements of the party, he faced the problem of overcoming his image and assuring McGovern backers he wasn t selling out reform. PROFESSIONAL Executive and Legal Whether you are a student or a professional; W.T.A. is always there with competitive rates. change With only sporadic opposition, the National Committee this week approved the rules that Strauss and liis executive director, Mark Siegel, had drafted in consultation with representatives for many part) groups. Designed to insure a more or derly' and less dwisive convention next July in New York, the) make it harder for minority positions to be brought before the full convention and narrow the grounds for creden tials challenges. If the rules had been in effect in 1972, they woidd have kept both the California and Illinois credential challenges, and many of the plat form controversies, from engender ing bitterness and dragging out con vention sessions late into the night. nn mba Eddie Oominguez '66 Joe Arcmiega 74 Greg Price z--" m ana mi If yon ivant the real thing, not frozen or canned .
