Its outcome will be determined to a great extent by action of schools not using the program and the possibility of the program becom ing mandatory, he said. If the program would go into effect at A&M next year, stu dents presently under contract would go into their specialized branches and military training of the other classes would be modi fied, he said. It would take about a year for the full program to go into full effect, he said. Few schools have adopted the new system, Myers said. Small, portable models will be used by college staff members to show students, county agents and farmers how modern types of farm buildings should be planned and designed. These models will be built in the agricultural engineering depart ment and used by instructors there and by the extension building spe cialist.
