Members of the local chapter of

in the Assembly Boom of the
YMCA to take final action on a
committee report on family rela

The- committee, after a three

01$ the Board of Directors of the
College in an advisory and con
sultative capacity, without the
right to vote, j
As a basis for such faculty rep
resentation on the Board of Direct
ors • the report declnrest “The
growth of institutionalism at Tex
as A&M College, which hjas been

mynt of tho awardee has not yet

in Hep-
“ibo severance of this mutuality
of interest nnd cooperation between
faculty and Idirectors is artificial
and destructive. It creates the fear
on the part of both directors and
faculty that each will encroach
upon the sacred domain of the
other; it implies that directors an*
incompetent to deal with peda
gogical matters; and it creates the
implication that the members of
the faculty do not possess the
competence, generally recognized
in the other professions, to partici
pate intelligently in the determina
tion of fundamental policies re
lating to the field of endeavor in
which they arc extensively edu
cated and to which their lives arc
dedicated.”
‘ th* report also recommends the
appointment of a faculty consti
tutional committee to spend at
lease ni.nc months study on facul
ty government nnd to draft a
constitution under which the A&M
faculty would operate after such
cobstitution had been approved by
the executive and administrative
toffidals and the B<>urd of Direct
ors of the College.

■on was made by doing half the-
foundation by the old method of
pile driving. I
On the demonstration, threfe holes
Were drilled to a depth of about
30 feet. The rig can drill a' 30 foot
hole in about .30 minutes. A lineal
foot of dirt is removed on each
operation. i
The holes drilled on the campus
are not going to be the foundation
of any proposed building. Thermo
couples are to be placed jin each
hole to measure the temperature
beneath the ground. Temperature
of the ground affects the mois
ture flow in the soil. The moisture
flow in turn causes buildings to
heave and erack. An excellent ex
ample was Guion Hall before it
was repaired.
In constructing’ a foundation
by this new method, the holes
: are drilled to <he required depth
and cement is poured. The holes
P can bo drilled and the kement
poured in a/much shorter titno
than the method of pile driving.
Each hole la drilled to a depth
determined by the moisture con-
tent of the soil. At a point where
the m'ositure ceases to be erratic,
the cement is laid.
Jack Watson explained that the
holes for the foundation arc drill
ed. to a depth determined by the
sheer strength and moisture con
tent of the soil. $Qme of the soil
in this locale contains a clay which
expands apd exerts a tremendous
pressure When, moistened, provided
the clay is in sufficient quantity.
For this reason soil samples were
taken and tested about every three
or four feet.
During the demonstration a ca
nine interest story came about.
The well known Spot came by
during the proceedings carrying a
thoroughly gnawed bone which
he had spirited from the mess
hall. Unknowingly and without
hesitation he trotted up and re
leased his bone into the bottomless
pit. Ho sauntered off happily, nev
er dreaming of the big let down
that was in store when he decided
to retrieve it.
All in all the procedure was very

Puppy, But
No Cougar
Love At UH
DALLAS, June 16—(/P»—Uni
versity of Houston students tried
to arrange n wedding between
their mascot, Shasta; a cougar,
and Tom, a male of the same spec
ies at the Marsalis. Park Zoo here.
But Shasta has been unimpres
sed by the old college try, She
sleeps through the. games.
The ash-blond cougar was furn
ished a veil, a cake nnd other wed
ding trimmings for the ceremony
that was planned yesterday.
She was put into thi cage with
Tom, a 12-year-old cat. Shasta Is
three. Perhaps the disparity in
their ages hud unmet king to do
with it. Tom liked Shgstu’s looks
but it wasn’t mutual]
After a few gestures, Shasta
swatted Tom on the Mde of the
hand.
Jim Buchanan, an Engineering
student from the University, said
he hoped In time Shasta would
change her mind. "We| sure could
use another mascot,” hb said.

Hughes Speaks
To Kiwanians
“The most common weaktieNs
among A&M students is jin (riiHq-
Ing ability the ulillljty to not only
read words, but to Int^rpet iwhrtl
they mean," sa,Ul Holloway Hughes,
advisor of the A&M Votoiqn'ii Ap
praisal Service. Hughes spoke yes
terday at the weekly hmiheon
meeting of the KlWqjnls Club on
the subject, “Guldanc*."
“Many people seeip to think tv
guidance program is (for the pur
pose of influencing the studont to
take one course of study or an
other. This is not true," Kahj Mr.
Hughes, “it is more like* a sign
post at a fork in the road, sh iwing
the student where each br$ncn will
lead, not recommending orie or the
other, but leaving that cho ce to\
the 4udent.”
The guidance program attempts
to use tektsdtt helping the student
find th*Tiql<Hfor which he is best
ndaptem If guidance tests could
tie given ^a high school graduate,
a trend of interest could be estab
lished that would lie most helpful
in deciding what he wanted to
study in college. The tests are not
infallible, however, Hughes said.
“It is known that out of every
100 boys and girls who enter the
5th grade.only about 35 graduate
from high school, and only one
third receive a degree from col
lege. Civic clubs and service groups
could do much to reduce these fig
ures by making guidance tests nnd
services available,” concluded
Hughes.
