Chet Edwards launched his bid
for the 6th Congressional seat with
the start of a two-week grassroots
tour that will cover all the counties
of this district.
Edwards was in the Bryan-
College Station area Monday morn
ing to announce his candidacy in the
May Democratic primary. He will
be running for the seat now being
vacated by Olin Teague.
“Tin convinced that we need
elected officials who promise less,
listen more and admit they don’t
have all the answers,” said Edwards
in an interview Monday night.
At 25, Edwards is the youngest
candidate in the running. But he
said his youth is not a liability in the
election.
“Texas has elected young mem
bers to Congress in the past and
kept them there to acquire the ex
perience and seniority necessary to
provide productive leadership,’
said Edwards. He said new ideas are
the key to a progressive govern
ment.
Edwards will base his campaign
on issues he termed “important to
the residents of the 6th district.”
Edwards cited agricultural policy.

support of the Social Security pro
gram, and deregulation of natural
gas as major issues in this race.
“I support the idea of getting gov
ernment out of the gas-pricing busi
ness,” said Edwards. He favors a
policy of long-term deregulation to
protect consumers from a price im
balance and allow business to plan
ahead for new production of natural
gas.
“I support human rights abroad
and at home,” said Edwards, in ref
erence to foreign policy. “We need
to see that military intervention in
any confrontation is the last resort.
The candidate said he went on
record opposed to the new Panama
treaty because negotiators cannot
agree on the provisions in the
treaty.

Bryan-College Station is one of the

in the nation.
Dr. R. L. Skrabanek, de
mographer with the Texas Real Es
tate Research Center (TRERC) and
professor in Texas A&M Univer
sity’s department of sociology, re
ports that Bryan-College Station
ranks second among Texas’ 25 met
ropolitan areas in rate of population
growth since 1970 and 13th in all of
the United Sates.
“The most recent Bureau of Cen

metropolitan statistical area (SMSA)
increased from 58,000 persons on
April 1, 1970, to 72,300 on July 1,
1975, Skrabanek said Monday.
“This is an increase of 24.7 percent,
which is surpassed in Texas only by
the Killeen-Temple SMSA increase
of 31.7 percent.
The Fort Myers, Fla., SMSA had
the highest rate of increase in the
nation, 47.7 percent. Eight of the
top 15 SMSAs in rate of population
growth in the United States be
tween 1970 and 1975 are in Florida.
Killeen-Temple and Bryan-College
Station are the only two from Texas
in the top 15, noted the TRERC
demographer.
Skrabanek said the Bureau of
Census estimates for the B-Cs met
ropolitan area, which includes all of
Brazos County, 6,100 births and
2,200 deaths between 1970 and
1975 for a natural increase of 3,900.
Over 72 percent of the total
population growth came from net
migration,” he said. The Bureau of
the Census estimated that 10,400
more persons moved to the Bryan-

than moved out between 1970 and
