The East was only getting one shot — and usually from 20 feet or greater — in the second quarter as the West controlled the backboards and shot a blistering .594 (19 of 32 shots) while the East was sinking just 12 of 27 shots. The West scored six straight to expand a 40-33 lead and then ran off a 10-2 string to hike a 52-43 margin and finish the blazing 44-point sec ond quarter with the last seven tal lies of the period. Late in the quarter East Coach Dick Motta of Washington began experimenting with a one-guard and no-guard offense that he was to use with great success in the third quar ter, when the West saw its lead shrivel to 104-98. Motta switched Erving back to guard and paired him with either Gervin or little Calvin Murphy of Houston or Pete Maravich of New Orleans and the tactic nearly pulled the game out for the underdogs. The West tied two All-Star game records for field goals with its 19 in the second quarter and 35 in the first half. Erving was sensational in the third quarter, bombing from long range and then going inside to score repeatedly from short range. He also passed off for two of his three assists in the game while the East was trimming a 91-70 margin in the last seven minutes of the quarter.

Heads. We’re looking for the best graduates in the nation. That’s why we’re interviewing at Texas A&M University. We’ve grown because we’ve made it a practice to employ the brightest, most capable people available. Which is exactly why we’re coming here. We’re Halliburton Services, the largest oil field service company in the world. We provide a full range of highly technical, extremely complex services to the petroleum and other industries. This visit, we’re interviewing for positions in the following areas of our business: Field Engineering Increasingly, our customers —both major and independent petroleum companies—rely on the skills of our engineers to engineer oil and gas well cementing, stimulation, and remedial services. As a field engineer, you’ll be responsible for thoroughly analyzing the needs of your customer’s well, engineering the service or treatment design, presenting your recommendations to your customer, marshalling the equipment necessary to perform the service, and supervising the Halliburton personnel on the job. Field engineering demands an individual with excellent engineering abilities and who is willing to accept tremendous responsibility within a few months of joining Halliburton. Manufacturing or Plant Engineering To maintain our exacting quality standards Halliburton manufactures the vast majority of the equipment we use in providing our services. To keep up with booming demands we operate several manufacturing facilities in the U.S. and abroad. We offer a unique challenge because our work involves both long production runs and job shop operations. As an engineer in this department, your responsibilities can range from developing manufacturing procedures for a new product to evaluating quality control procedures. Individuals selected for manufacturing opportunities must have a high degree of technical ability, the personality to work effectively with people, and a healthy dose of horse sense. Research and Development A major reason for Halliburton’s leadership position is the constant flow of new products, techniques, and procedures from our Research and Development Departments. The departments are widely recognized as both the most productive and the largest of their type in the world. The departments function in four basic areas —Chemical, Mechanical, Electrical, and Tools. Several different professional disciplines are required. Eventually you’ll be assigned primary responsibility for an entire project. It is a position that requires an individual with a unique understanding of how to practically apply theoretical concepts, able to communicate with field personnel, and who enjoys the challenge of expanding an entire industry’s technological base. Equipment Engineering One important reason for our leadership in oil field services is the rugged dependability of our equipment. Virtually every piece of service equipment we use is designed and built by Halliburton people. As an equipment engineer, you’ll be given responsibility for a specific project. That responsibility will include all engineering, introducing your product to Halliburton field personnel, and trouble shooting in the field. You’ll take charge of the complete project from inception to successful field performance. Equipment engineering demands an individual who is able to cross interdisciplinary lines, who can work well with other engineers and non-technical people, and who has the ability to communicate well.
