Pleistocene Geology, Geology
647, a new and unusual advanced
course is being presented for the
first time at A&M by Dr. W.
Armstrong Price, professor of
geological oceanography. This
course, currently being taught in
the department of oceanography
for the department of geology,
treats chiefly the geology of coast
al plains, interior high plains,
river valleys, sand dunes, and for
mer lakes. It does not confine it
self to glacial geology as is the
case in similar courses presented
at many other academic institu
tions in the United States.
Present enrollipent in Geology
647 emphasizes the importance
and striking nature of the course
material. Only professors and ex
perienced consulting geological
oceanographers seeking the PhD
degree are currently enrolled.
Enrollment in Course
Enrollment includes three pro-
Ray Heads Law Group
C. L. Ray, senior business major
from Waskom, was elected presi
dent of the Pre-Law Society at a
meeting last week.
Other new officers for the
Spring semester are Arvis Noak,

lessors frmo the geology depart
ment, one professor from the de
partment of civil engineering and
two experienced geological ocean
ographers. In addition, three pro
fessors from petroleum engineer
ing and one from geology are aud
iting the course.
Among these auditing profes
sors are two heads of college de
partments. These ten students and
the instructor are, to a consider
able entent pioneering in the geol
ogy of the Pleistocene of the
western Gulf of Mexico region in
the study and presentation of this
course. It is highly probable that
this is the first time such material »
for advanced study and discussion
has been presented in the state
of Texas, Doctor Price said.
Doctor Price has specialized in
Pleistocene Geology for more than
20 years. His activity in such re
search led him into geological
oceanography, which is his current,
dominant field of interest. Pleisto
cene geology and geological ocean
ography are closely associated and
mutually supporting fields of sci
entific research and knowledge.
Pleistocene deposits cover most
of the oceanic floor area. Although
not thick, these deposits represent
the most readily attainable oceanic
deposits beneath the present sedi
mentary layer since they can be
obtained by short length coring
devices.
