It had long been clear that Gingrich was unlikely to join the presidential race, but not until Monday did he slam shut the door. He said he would not endorse a can didate, but hoped to serve as chairman of the Republican convention next Au gust in San Diego. Explaining his decision, Gingrich listed the daunting challenge he faces in trying to shepherd a balanced bud get through Congress, calling it “one of the most important decisions we’ve made in domestic government in the last 60 years.” Political calculations also played a part. Iowa’s caucuses and New Hamp shire’s primary are less than three months away, followed by a blizzard of early primaries. “I didn’t see how I could be both speaker of the House and run a cam paign of that scale,” Gingrich said. His decision leaves the GOP field with a clear front-runner, Senate Major ity Leader Bob Dole. Texas Sen. Phil Gramm, former Tennessee Gov. Lamar Alexander, publisher Steve Forbes and commentator Pat Buchanan are among those clamoring for an opening or a Dofe stumble. For his part, Dole is working feve r . ishly to create the impression his r nation is all but inevitable. Just ] day, Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson I became the 16th of the 30 Republican governors to endorse Dole, and that number could top 20 by year’s end. “I think the Dole campaign hat I turned the corner,” said GOP pollstai David Hill. fl EVERY TUESDAY IN 1 IrOUb THE BATTALION on raw WJgZt ’Aggfe/and 1801 Holleman (409) 693-8621 (Next to El Chico) Hours 8:30-5:30 • Mon-Fri We’re Aggie Owned and Operated Grad Special Announcements, Envelopes & Namecards 25 Pack Only $38.00 35 Pack Only $48.00 50 Pack Only $58.00 Tax included Must have coupon | Expires 12/15/95 Aggieland Printing 1 1801 Holleman • College Station ^ 693-8621 This coupon entitles you to purchase as many COLOR COPIES as you like for only 8 1/2x11 size • offer expires 12/15/95 Aggieland Printing 1801 Holleman • College Station ?? 693-8621 Including sa iA 1 OFF X 50% off!
