Pleistocene Geology, Geology 647, a new and unusual advanced course is being presented for the first time at A&M by Dr. W. Armstrong Price, professor of geological oceanography. This course, currently being taught in the department of oceanography for the department of geology, treats chiefly the geology of coast al plains, interior high plains, river valleys, sand dunes, and for mer lakes. It does not confine it self to glacial geology as is the case in similar courses presented at many other academic institu tions in the United States. Present enrollipent in Geology 647 emphasizes the importance and striking nature of the course material. Only professors and ex perienced consulting geological oceanographers seeking the PhD degree are currently enrolled. Enrollment in Course Enrollment includes three pro- Ray Heads Law Group C. L. Ray, senior business major from Waskom, was elected presi dent of the Pre-Law Society at a meeting last week. Other new officers for the Spring semester are Arvis Noak, vice-president; Don Buckner, secre tary-treasurer; and Hailey Rob erts, reporter. Everything For CAMPING!

In addition, three pro fessors from petroleum engineer ing and one from geology are aud iting the course. Among these auditing profes sors are two heads of college de partments. These ten students and the instructor are, to a consider able entent pioneering in the geol ogy of the Pleistocene of the western Gulf of Mexico region in the study and presentation of this course. It is highly probable that this is the first time such material » for advanced study and discussion has been presented in the state of Texas, Doctor Price said. Doctor Price has specialized in Pleistocene Geology for more than 20 years. His activity in such re search led him into geological oceanography, which is his current, dominant field of interest. Pleisto cene geology and geological ocean ography are closely associated and mutually supporting fields of sci entific research and knowledge. Pleistocene deposits cover most of the oceanic floor area. Although not thick, these deposits represent the most readily attainable oceanic deposits beneath the present sedi mentary layer since they can be obtained by short length coring devices.
