Geology Professor
Publishes Text Book
Dr. William L. Russell, profes
sor in the geology department, is
the author of “Principles of Pet
roleum Geology,” a textbook pub
lished in May, 1951, by McGraw-
Hill. The McGraw-Hill announce
ment says this book is an up to
date treatment of the processes,
techniques, and basic principles of
importance in petroleum geology.
Dr. Russell’s book differs from
previous books on this subject in
that long, detailed descriptions of
oil fields have been omitted, and
emphasis has been placed upon the
thorough discussion of principles
and methods of general application.
Among the subjects given com
plete treatment for the first time
in a text of petroleum geology are
electrical, radioactivity, and neu
tron well logs, well-logging in
general, subsurface pressures and
their origina, the applications of
geochemistry in the search for

oil and gas, and the bearing of
regional alterations upon oil and
gas prospects. There is also in
cluded a discussion of what the
geologist should know about geo
physics.
The theories discussed in the
literature of petroleum geology
have been analyzed and consider
ed critically instead of being mere
ly repeated. Various types of traps
needed for oil and gas accumula
tions are classified and described
in detail.
Dr. Russell is currently working
on another book, on structural
geology. He has written 36 publish
ed articles. These publications
have appeared in such bulletins as
those of the American Journal of
Science, Economic Geology, Amer
ican Association of Petroleum Ge
ologists, Journal of Geology, and
Geophisics. His interest in struct
ural, field, and petroleum geology
has led him to employment with
such companies as Stanolind Oil
and Gas Company, East Ohio Gas,
Creek Drilling, Kemrow, Tide
Water Associated, and Well Sur
veys, Inc. His work has taken him
over most of the United States
and he has been in foreign work
with the Venezuela Gulf Oil Com
pany in Venezuela, Standard Vac
uum Oil Company in South Africa,
and the Canadian government in
northern Canada.
His activity in research has
made him a recognized authority
in the application of nuclear phy
sics to geology, radioactivity and
well-logging, methods of determin
ing incipient regional alteration
of sediments, carbon ratio theories,
porosity, and applications of phy
sical measurements of rocks to
economic problems.
Dr. Russell is a fellow of the
Geological Society of America and
a member of the Society of Eco
nomic Geologists, American Asso
ciation of Petroleum Geologists,
Sigma Xi, Tau Beta Pi, and Phi
Beta Kappa.

Polio Foundation Prepares
For Largest Call in January
With a staggering total of over
45,000 new and old polio cases now
requiring medical care, the Nation
al Foundation for Unfantile Paral
ysis through its local chapters and
the March of Dimes, is preparing
its greatest appeal for support,
Ray Jarvi, of College Station, a
co-chairman for the 1952 Brazos
County March of Dimes, said to
day. r
Participating in a regional meet
ing of March of Dimes directors
and representatives just completed
in Dallas, Jarvi issued ibis' re
port on the present polio situation:
Epidemics For Four Years
“For four straight years polio
epidemics have swept the coun
try, piling up 133,000 cases or an
average pf 33,000 cases a year. The
results has been a terrific carry
over of patients who are strug
gling to overcome the after-effects
of the crippling disease.
“During all this- critical time, the
National Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis has endeavored to live
up to its promise to the people
that no case shall be denied ade
quate care because of lack of
funds. The load has been so heavy,

however, that the National Founda
tion has plunged into debt each
year to the extent of five or six
million dollars.
“In other words the March of
Dimes has not kept pace with
the March of Polio. The time has
finally come to put the National
Foundation on a balanced basis.
We chnnot continue each year in
red.
“Therefore, we are unanimously
determined to set our sights much
higher than ever before. The com
ing March of Dimes will open on
Jan. 2 and will continue through
Postmaster Gives
Addressing Rules
The most common mistake is not
supplying enough correct informa
tion' about the addressee, said Dr.
T. O. Walton, College Station post-
rnaster.
Here are the rules set forth by
Dr. Walton for insuring prompt
accurate delivery:
1. The addresser should give
his complete return address.
2. The addressee’s name, should
be spelled correctly and written
legibly.
3. His initials should be used
instead of his nickname.
4. If the box number is un
known, put other information such
as dorm and room number or
branch outfit.
“If the letter cannot be correctly
delivered here, and there is no re
turn address it is returned to the
dead letter of the Fort Worth
Post Office.
Jan. 31 instead of opening on Jan.
15, as has been the custom. The
American people, we feel sure,
will support this expanded pro
gram.
Scientists Closing In
“We were told at the meeting
that scientists and doctors are at
last closing in on polio. Now is the
time to keep this fight adequately
supplied with the dimes and dol
lars needed, not only to help those
who have been striken but to con
tinue to research work to conquer
infantile paralysis.”
Late figures on polio cases this
year show a total ending Oct. 13,
1951 of 22,793. Epidemic aid al
ready sent from the National Foun
dation to chapters which have ex
hausted their funds now totals
$6,833,442. This year the National
Foundation has shipped 496 res
pirators (iron lungs) to places
where they are needed to save
lives.
The March of Dimes meeting in
cluded representatives from the
states of Texas, Oklahoma and
Louisiana. Jarvi was accompanied
to the meeting by Howard Bad-
gett, Chairman of the Brazos
County Chapter, National Founda
tion for Infantile Paralysis.
Warren D. Goss, National Di
rector of Fund Raising presided.
He said at the meeting:
“The National Foundation must
be placed on a sound financial
basis. In the past four y6ars, the
National Foundation and its chap
ter throughout the nation have
spent $77,000,000 for patient cai'e
compared to $43,000,000 for the
ten previous years. i
“Four out of every five polio
cases need and get March of Dimes
help. That is why we know that
people everywhere will come to
our aid in the coming drive.”
