Thursday, June 30, 1955
Water Conference
Set in September
All phases of the Texas water
problem, except the legal, will be
the subject of a statewide confei’-
ence to be held on the A&M cam
pus September 19, 20 and 21, it
was announced by Chancellor M. T.
Harrington of the A&M System.
All interested Texans, concerned
with growing water problems of
the state, will be invited to attend.
National authorities in engineer
ing, agriculture, meteorology,
chemistry and conservation will
discuss phases of the state’s prob
lems of management of its avail
able water supply. General ses
sions each morning will be followed
by afternoon meetings of special
ized groups for panel discussion of
individual phases of the problem.
Gibb Gilchrist, chancellor-emeri
tus of the A&M System, who has
headed the System’s Water Ke-
search and Information Center, will
serve as general chairman for the
conference. Paul Weaver, distin
guished professor of geology and
nationally known water authority,
will serve as program chairman.
Etvens at Austin
Ur. W. P. Ewens, associate pro
fessor of Education and Psychol-
ogy, A&M College and chairman of
the Texas Committee on Educa
tional Measurement and Evalua
tion, is in Austin for the fourth
annual conference on Educational
Measurement and Evaluation.
In addition to conference par
ticipation, plans are to be made
for a section meeting on measure
ment and evaluation at the Texas
Conference on Teacher Education
to be held in Mineral Wells this
fall.
Pilot School
Applications
Being Taken
Applications for the aerial
applicator pilot school at A&M
this fall now are being ac
cepted.
Only a limited number can
be accepted, however, according to
Fred E. Weick, head of the Per
sonal Aircraft Research Center,
who will be in charge of the school.
Not more than 10 students will
be admitted to the flying portion
of the course, Weick said. An ad
ditional 15 will be permitted to
take the ground school phases.
Registration will be held at 8
a.m. Oct. 81 in Room 102 of the
Engineering Building- on the A&M
campus. Classes will begin at 10
a.m. of the same day and will ex
tend through Dec. 10.
A commercial pilot’s license will
be required of each person regis
tering for the flying- portion of
the program, Weick said. An ad
ditional requirement is a minimum
of 500 hours’ solo operation, with
a substantial portion in airplanes
under 500 hp.—-or sponsorship by
a Texas Aerial Applicators Asso
ciation member firm.
Since the number of applicants
is expected to exceed the number
of students Weick’s staff can han
dle, a screening board made up of
representatives of the A&M Col
lege System and the TAAA will
choose the most eligible.

2 cups white corn meal 1 t. salt
IVz cups boiling water 1 T. lard (bacon or sausage fat)
Mix ingredients and cool. When ready to bake, add milk to make
thick batter. Drop from spoon into hot skillet of melted grease. Bake
25 minutes at 875 degrees.
Fried Apples
I have been surprised to find many people who have never fried
apples to serve with ham or pork chops.
Fill heavy skillet with apple sections (winesaps hold shape nicely)
which have been cored but not pared. Sprinkle generously with sug-ar;
add two to three tablespoons of bacon fat and 14 cup of water. Cover
and steam slowly until apples are tender. Remove cover and continue
cooking until slightly browned.

work only two or three at a time.
Pastry

5 T. sugar 1 t. vanilla
Blend margai’ine, flour and sugar as for pastry. Mix and add re
maining ingredients and mix all thoroughly. Shape into balls (90-100)
the size of walnuts. Chill one hour. Roll each ball until thin in pow
dered sugar, fill, fold torte in half and press edges with fork. Bake
on greased cookie sheet at 375 degrees 15 to 20 minutes. Remove while
hot.
Filling
2 packages dates, chopped 2 cups sugar
1 cup walnut meats IVz cups milk
Bring to boil and cook four minutes, stirring constantly to pre
vent burning. Cool.

These wei-e served to the foods group this spring.
Beat four egg whites stiff until they hold a peak. Gradually beat
in % cup sugar. Then alternate one teaspoon vinegar a few drops
at a time with another V2, cup sugar plus 1/3 cup more of sugar. Beat
until stiff and glossy. Bake at 275 degrees in a layer for 60 minutes
or in shells for 40 minutes on brown paper on a flat pan. Fill with
lemon custard.
Lemon Custard •
Beat four egg yolks until thick and lemon colored. Gradually beat
in Vs cup sugar. Blend in four tablespoons lemon juice and two table
spoons grated rind. Cook in double boiler for eight minutes until
