‘Many Positions Open To
Men in Range Management’
‘A’ Chem Corps Receives Top
Honors in Regimental Review
By E. J. Pickens
“Many positions are open to men
trained in the field of range man
agement,” said Dr. 0. E. Sperry,
professor in the range and forestry
department, in a talk to the Range
and Forestry Club Monday night,
April 14.
“Federal agen<?ies such as the
Soil Conservation Service, Forest
Service and the Grazing Service as
well as the Extension Service, Ex
periment Station and other state
agencies are badly in need of range
managers. It is our desire to train
men qualified to fill these posi
tions, but of primary importance
is the training of men so that they
may return to the ranching busi
ness themselves and put into prac
tice the knowledge they have ac
quired,” Dr. Sperry said.
