The loyalty affidavit states that

the government and resist any effort
or movement from any source that
would destroy it.
A petition to be signed by at least
25 qualified voters of College Sta
tion is the next form to be com
pleted.
This petition can be circulated by
either the candidate himself or
someone else. More than one peti
tion can be circulated for the same
person at the same time.
Every qualified voter signing this
petition must sign in the presence of
the circulator.
At the top of the petition is a
statement the candidate must sign
certifying that he is a qualified voter
in Texas and is eligible for the office
of city councilman.
On the last form the circulator
must sign a statement certifying that
all signatures were made in his (the
circulator’s) presence.
Each circulator must sign a form
for each petition submitted, if more
than one person is circulating a peti
tion for the same candidate.
Neeley has 10 days after the filing
of the petition to approve it.
If for some reason Neeley does
not approve the petition(s) she lets
the petitioner know what is wrong
and what has to be done to correct
it.
“If we have one or more candi
dates for one position there will be a
drawing for positions to determine
how the names will be listed on the
ballot,” Neeley said.
Representatives for districts 1, 3

THE SENATE Jurisprudence
Committee voted yesterday to ask
voters to expand the Texas Court of
Criminal Appeals, which the com
mittee hopes will help relieve the
backlog in cases the court has to
hear.
A TORNADO with near hur
ricane force winds yesterday
pounded Amarillo and similar gusts
shattered windows in Lubbock.
Eight Spearman businesses were
badly damaged and a radio station
transmitting tower was toppled.
The National Weather Service said
winds of up to 70 miles an hour had
struck valleys in the Franklin
Mountains and issued a high wind

Visibility was cut to a mile or less

STRONG opposition from the
petroleum industry is expected as a
result of a plan endorsed by Lt.
Gov. William Hobby to impose a
five per cent tax on petroleum
products refined in Texas. Lawmak
ers who are sponsoring the refinery
tax want it to replace property taxes
as a method of financing public
schools. Petroleum officials say the
impact could devastate the state’s
petrochemical industry. If ap
proved, the plan would require a
constitutional amendment abolish

maintenance and operation pur
poses be submitted to voters in the
November, 1978, election.

„ How to make
jour last two years of coHege
mean even more.
Take the Army ROTC Two-Year
Program.
If you’ve just about completed
your second year of college, and you’re
planning on two more, it’s not too late
to take Army ROTC.
You start the program with
six-weeks of Basic Camp (you’ll be paid
for it) between your sophomore and
junior years.
Then it’s back to school in the
fall. Learning how to become an Army
officer while you’re working on your
college degree. Earning an extra $100
a month, up to ten months a year.
And two years later, you’ll
graduate with your degree, your com
mission as an Army officer, and
some real experience at leading and
managing people.
The last two years of college
mean a lot.Take the Army ROTC
Two-Year Program and you can make
them mean a lot more.
