Pag-e 4 THE BATTALION Tuesday, July 21, 1953 all QUIET AT THE DIPPING VAT—Unemployment has hit the sheep dipping vats in Texas since state sheep dip ping requirements were rescinded recently. But it makes sheepmen happy to see empty vats like this one at San Angelo. Because of sheep scabies, sheep leaving auctions and stockyards the last eighteen months have had to be dipped. The scabies problem now seems to be whipped. New Breeding Types Ahead, Poultry Breeders Told Here “The chicken of tomorrow is an unknown quantity in terms of what its breeding and production will be,” Di 1 . C. W. Upp of Louisiana State University told listeners at the seventh Annual Poultry Breed ers’ School hei'e. Present methods of family breed ing have struck a plateau in im provements, he said, and poultry- men are now trying other methods of breeding for better yields. Other methods under study at present include cross-breeding be tween types, and reciprocal re current selection, which is a high ly selective foiTn of cross-breeding designed to find those birds best equipped foi; mixing purposes. ’ Almost 200 persons attended the bleeders’ school and Poultry Dis ease Clinic which followed it. Dates of the school and clinic were July 15-17. Dr. John H. Quisenberry, head of the A&M department of poul try husbandry, which sponsors the school and clinic, said they are de signed to assist poultry breeders and hatcheries, paificularly em phasizing flock improvement. Principal desired qualities in birds—both chickens and turkeys— for egg-men are high egg pro duction, better hatchability and better feed efficiency, Dr. Quisen berry said. fected by Certain Hereditary and Environmental Factors;” “Blood Spots;” “Control of Broodiness;” “Inheritance of Eco nomic Plumage Characters;” “In teraction of Genetic Factors;” “Trends in the National Improve ment Plans;” and “Specialization of and in the Poultry Industry.” Subjects considered in the Poul try Disease Clinic included “Pro tozoan Diseases of Turkeys and Chickens;” “External Parasites of Chickens and Turkeys;” “Salmon ellosis — Pullorum, Typhoid and Paratyphoid;” “Interpretations of Rejections from Processing Lines under Federal Inspections;” “New Developments in Respiratory Dis eases,” and “Littei' Management as Related to Diseases and Para sites.” Casting Aggie-Ex Finishes West Point Tour Aggie-ex George W. McMillan recently completed a tour of Army and Air Force Bases with his West Point senior class. McMillan is the son of Mrs. Beatrice McMillan of Denison, Tex- He visited W right-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, the Aimor School at Fort Knox, Ky., the Artillery School at Fort Sill, Okla. , the Infantry School at Fort Benning, Ga., and the Guided Mis sile Center at Fort Bliss, Texas, during the flying tour. He will spend the balance of the summer training new plebes at Camp Buckner. (Continued from Page 3) detailed record of the fish he has taken. “Those first ones were careful ly skinned,” he says, “and the skins glued to a cardboard on which were noted the circum stances of the catch, where it was made, the bait or lure and all other pertinent information.” Later he learned taxidermy in order to mount the better speci mens. It was this skill and his intense interest in everything hav ing to do with aquatic life that won him a job at Yale’s Peabody museum. He was member of the New Haven Boy’s Club, which gave Yale another famous son—Albie Booth, the Elis’ 1931 football cap tain—when his talents were chan- ?ielled to Yale. There he came to the attention of Professoi- Daniel Merriman, now director of the Bigham Labora tory and one of the world’s fore most authorities of fish. From then on it has “been simply won derful.” Like, for instance, his plans for this fall, when he will go into our Northwest to help do “The Life Story of the Salmon,” along the Columbia and possibly the Sno- qualmie and others of Washing ton’s famous rivers. present dairy surpluses are only about two per cent of national pro duction, and in the last five years the dairy product price support program has cost only $132 million compared to $580 million for wheat and $452 million for the two year cost of cotton export.

Robert W. Warren, commanding officer pf Third Air Reserve D istrict. Local air reservists promoted in clude A/lc William R. Schirmer and A/2c James E. Rye. “Outstanding qualities and skills are essential if the Air Force is to maintain a strong air arm,” said Col. Warren, “and these pro motions are cei-tainly an indica tion of the high calibre of reserve airmen to be found in the South west VART units.” Under the promotion policy for VART, reservists not on active duty must earn a certain number of points each year to become eli gible for advancement, however I’ecommendations are primarily based on qualification, interest and participation in the Air Force Re serve Training program.
