That day a piddling, tiny fraction of less than one percent of the citizens of College Station finally achieved the resignation of our progressive, dedicated Mayor D. A. (Andy) Anderson. In addition to the effect on our City Council and School Board, local* government units state -wide have been sabotaged by the same group. Mike Mistovich, reporting over radio KORA this morning, well expressed the feeling of our com- munity whep he spoke of the debt our City owes Mayor Anderson. He said the City has made more progress under "Andy's" leadership than in all the previous years of its existence. Recruitment of a man of Anderson's dedication and ability will be difficult in view of present law. It must be done. Furthermore, the intent of the law must be clarified to avoid continued disen- franchisement of those who, without hope of per- sonal gain or compensation, are willing to assume the burdens of local government in communities such as ours.
