Boone Pickens, president of Mesa Petroleum urged the Aggie G.O.P. Tuesday night to get in volved in the political process of this country early in life and to help keep the free enterprise system alive. “Most people will say they are for the free enterprise system, but few actually understand how the system works,” Pickens said. “We happen to have a person in the White House now who understands the free en terprise system. President Reagan has done a lot for us since he took of fice in 1980. We are practically with out inflation now and interest rates have come down considerably.” Pickens said it is important for young people to understand current political issues because they are the f uture f or our country. “You should get in there and ask (the people in charge) tough ques tions,” Pickens said. “Don’t let them give you a political answer. Now, Phil Gramm will answer your ques tions directly.” Pickens went on to discuss Gov. Mark White. "His first two years in office were not all that bad,” Pickens said. “He will probably face some problems on his education reform bill. Some peo ple in his own camp may oppose it, but the state needs it.” Rumors that Pickens is consid ering running for governor of Texas T. Boone Pickens speaks to the Aggie GOP Photo by PETER ROCHl in 1986 brought questions from the lo get President Regan re-elected, make that decision today, Id have! audience.

More than 200 aliens arrested in Houston area United Press International HOUSTON — Federal agents in Houston Tuesday arrested more than 200 illegal aliens work ing in pipe yards in the area around Liberty and Dayton. Paul O'Neill, district director of the Immigration and Naturali zation Service, said the arrests were a joint effort of the INS, the Border Patrol, the Harris County Sheriff’s Department and the Precinct 3 Constable’s office. O’Neill said about 225 men were arrested, but a final tally was not available. “We had hoped to get about 400,” he said. “It’S not uncom mon to get a couple of hundred in a raid.” He said the raid was enhanced by the addition of 10 border pa trol agents from Laredo. Area highways in bad condition By LYNN RAE POVEC Staff Writer The state highways in Bryan-Col- lege Station have twice as many ruts, potholes and surface blemishes as the average Texas highway, accord ing to a 1983 state survey of pave ment conditions. Dr. Robert Lytton, research engi neer and civil engineering professor at Texas A&M, interpreted the sur vey results at Tuesday night’s meet ing of the Texas A&M University Student Chapter of the Operations Research Society of America. Bryan-College Station — district 17 of the state’s 25 state highway dis tricts — has an above-average amount of highway problems be cause of its climate, Lytton told a group of 12. Potholes are holes in the road sur face along the wheel path, and ruts are sloping depressions in the road’s surface. “Rutting is due, in a large part, to having a soft sub-grade (ground un- B ryd n - College Suit ion bus an above-average amount of highway problems be cause of its climate. der a paved highway),” Lytton said. “More water stays in the soil than leaves (the soil).” He explained that highways are inspected and given a serviceability rating 0-5, five being perfect, and he cited the 1.5 serviceability rating for Old San Antonio Road in northwest Bryan as an example of the condi tion of state highways in Bryan-Col lege Station. Driving down that road would “make a truck driver’s teeth ratde,” he said. Lytton, a specialist in pavement analysis and in soil mechanics and foundations, said the problem was more acute in East Texas than any where else in the nation. “The (individual) districts hut got the job of deciding whafsgotio lx* done, and where and how much.’ Lytton said. The districts are loosely manaetd by a central office — a relationship Lytton compared to a confederacy. The central office receives suit and federal funds, and it allocaits those f unds based on each dislrkti needs, he said.

Hesam the student chapter was designedit promote understanding and apprt ciation of the science of operatiom research. First founded in the 1970s, iht ORSA student chapter was reacm vated last fall and is 35 memben strong. Its next meeting will be Ott 23 in 156 Blocker Building. ome $ Help lie Celebrate Our 3 r - Year in College Station ! nuai Year in college Storewide Cl earance Through Saturday, we’re clearing our stored warehouse of all excess stock Our Annual Sale is a great time to pick up items for yourself or gifts for friends, sure to stop by for savings in every department.
