Senate meets to talk about elections
The Student Senate, meeting
today at 7:30 p.m. in 204 Har
rington, will decide if the number
of days between Student Govern
ment primary elections and run
offs is sufficient for campaigning.
A bill, presented to tne Senate
two weeks ago, calling for a mini
mum of seven days between the
election primaries and runoffs,
will be up for a vote at Wednes
day’s meeting.
There is no official regulation
on how much time can elapse be
tween the two elections, but Stu
dent Body President Mason Ho
gan said there is customarily
seven days between spring prima
ries and runoffs. The bill’s pri
mary purpose is to extend the
usual number of days between
freshman elections in the fall.
Hogan said there are usually
three days between freshman
elections.
Speaker of the Senate Jay Hays
said the bill has limited support in
the Senate and probably will not
pass.
The Senate also will consider
the annual Senate reapportion
ment bill. The bill proposes add
ing two seats to the Senate. A
freshman seat and a professional
seat, for a student in the Texas
A&M medical or veterinary
school, will be added if the Senate
approves the bill. It also calls fora
reduction of graduate seats from
eight to four and is scheduled for
a vote Nov. 18.
In an attempt to bring the
number of A&M students eligible
to vote in Brazos County up to 20
percent, the Senate is registering
voters at the MSC and the Com
mons from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. to
day and Thursday. Ronnie Gip
son, chairman of the external
affairs committee, said about 6
percent of A&M’s students cur
rently are registered to vote in
this county.

Immigration official
says amnesty seekers
should apply quickly
EL PASO (AP) — Not everyone
who picks up an amnesty application
is turning it in, which could mean
trouble for procrastinators because
of a deadline next May, an immigra
tion official said.
Of the 21,995 applications
handed out in the area since am
nesty was offered May 5, 16,991 ap
plicants have interviewed, said Pe
dro A. Reyes, deputy chief of the
U.S. Immigration and Naturaliza
tion Service Legalization Center in
El Paso.
“Some people may be having
problems getting the money or the
documentation together,” Reyes said
Monday. “We still have quite a few
people who have not approached
our office and time is running out.
We are fast approaching the halfway
mark.”
Reyes said an extension of the
May 4, 1988, deadline isn’t being dis
cussed and does not appear to be a
feasible possibility at this time.
“If there is an extension, it must
come from Congress,” Reyes said.
He said a total of 12,488 people
have been granted amnesty; 2,281
applications have been denied and
2,222 are pending. Reyes said those
figures are for Truth or Conse
quences, Roswell, Carlsbad, Ruidoso,
Alamogordo, Las Cruces, Silver City
and Deming in New Mexico; and El
Paso, Alpine, Marfa, Midland,
Odessa and Presidio in West Texas.
“I feel we are really doing some
thing good and that is to help people
get their status legalized,” Reyes
said. “It’s surprising to hear the chil
dren of applicants already speaking
English and being assimilated into
our society.”
The number of apprehensions of
undocumented aliens has dropped
since the new immigration law — in
cluding employer sanctions — went
into effect, said Doug Mosier, El
Paso Border Patrol public affairs
specialist.
During a five-month period in
1986 from May to September, Bor
der Patrol agents arrested 144,102
undocumented aliens. That com
pares with 97,433 arrests for the
same period this year. This obvious
decrease in numbers is the very out
come that officials hoped to ac
complish.
“This means the immigration bill
is working,” Mosier said. “But the
number of persons apprehended
may rise as soon as we start the ball
rolling, and we start hitting more
businesses.”
Mosier said the Border Patrol is
expecting an increase of up to 250
new agents within the next two
years, to cover the 13 states of the
Southern Region that include Texas
and Southern New Mexico.
“We just don’t have enough
agents to cover such a wide area,"
Mosier said. “Some agents are hav
ing to do double and triple duty, but
this should change once we get more
agents. Then, we may see an in
crease in apprehensions.”
