Southwest Museums
Organize 1 in Santone
At the Initial meeting of the
Southwest Museum Conference held
b San Antonio last Thursday, an
organisation to stimubto interest
b museums and museum work
wss organised. The A. A M. mu
seum became one of the official
members of the group at the first
meeting.
Thirty-eix museum* from Texas,
Oklahoma, Loaisiana, and Arkan
sas were represented at the meet-
Tbe organixationa was spbt into
three divisional one of Nature!
Science, one of Art, and sue of
Local History. A magasine will be
published monthly, pertaining to
museums sad their work all over
the county, by the group.
Miles D. Catton of the develop
ment department of the Portland
Cement Company, Chicago, held the
attention of approximately |i0
highway enghMsra at the am
Highway Engineers’ Short Course,
held last Tusadsy, Wednesday, and
Thursday, when he told how high
ways are being constructed b an
entirely new manner and at costs
as low aa $9jt00 a mile, about one-
fifth of the usual coat for concrete
The process is one developed by
the cement men and was first tried
b South Carolina b 19SS. Since
that time other experimental roads
have been con*truct<-.i in 26 states,
one of those being Texas, which
has built s t 1-2 mile stretch b
Kenedy country.
Where the construction differs is
that the eeraaat is mixed with the
pulverised earth of the road-bed
rather than With sand and gravel,
and instead cf being run through a
concrete miner it is plowed, disced,
harrowed and worked together with
ordinary farm cultivators b the
process of preparing the road aa a
hard surface highway. Roads can
be bid much faster and are report
ed to be giving satisfactory service
even under fabavy traffic.
Gibb Cilchrist. dean of the school
of enginecriag at Texas A. A M.
College, presided at the morning
session, and J. T. L. McNew, pro
fessor of highway engineering at
the college, was chairman during
the afternoon.
