Does No Hunting, Fishing
The “man behnid the gun” of
the Game Warden school at A&M
doesn’t, do any hunting or fishing

sense, that is. All of his time in
field and stream is devoted to the
collection of specimens, rare or
well-known.

Dr. William B. Davis, head of
the college wildlife management
department, is director of the.
unique game warden course. It is
the only one of its kind in the
country and the 1955 class begins
the 15-week, full-semester study
on Monday, February 7. Fifteen
candidates, appointments are ex
pected .to attend the class which
will graduate May 20.
“Dean” Davis came up with the
idea for the game warden school
under circumstances involved in
many great plans—over a cup of
coffee.
“I was lunching in Dallas,” he
recalls, “with a former director of
the Game Commission, Bill Tucker.
.It was sometime in 1946. At that
time Texas had only a one-week
course in Austin for prospective
wardens, and Tucker and I agreed
that wasn’t too satisfactory.”
The upshot was the first class,
in the following spring, on tiie
A&M campus.
Approximately 120 of the 184
game wardens now in service have
been graduated from the school.
Davis reports there have been no
failures of any trainees since the
course was established.
One graduate never became a
game warden, however. He is T.
D. Carroll, a Beaumont radio an
nouncer and orchestra leader who
attended that first class in 1947.
Upon finishing the course he de
cided to stay and complete college
for a BS degree in Wildlife Man
agement. Then he stayed awhile
longer for his Master’s in Educa
tion. After that he was in charge
of the educational program at the
Museum of Natural History in
Houston.
'The odd part of his story,
says Davis, “is that Carroll wound
up with the Game Commission af
ter all. He transferred from the
museum job to the public relations
department of the Commission, and
today he’s in charge of all televis
ion and radio operations.”
A native of Idaho with his phD
m Zoology from the Univcisu. j
of California, Davis came to A&M
in 1937 as professor of ...wildlife
management. He became depart
ment head nine years later. He
has traveled extensively through
out the United States and in Can
ada and Mexico.
He has a hobby which goes well
with his kind of hunting and fish
ing: color photography.
