Heaving Theories
Proven Recently
Generally accepted theories on
heaving clays were borne out in
soil mechanics research by the Tex
as Engineering Experiment Sta
tion involving the soils beneath
and adjacent to two old buildings
on the A&M campus.
Razing of the buildings provided
opportunities for borings to be
made. One of the buildings, Fos
ter Hall, had been erected in 1898
and the other, Pfeuffer Hall, in
1887.
L. A. Dubose, research worker,
believes that following recognized
recommendations of soils engineer
ing scientists in construction oper
ations would eliminate many of
the problems resulting from ex
pansive clays.
Founding footings to a depth
below seasonal moisture fluctua
tions is considered good practice.
The depth should be a function of
climatic factors, topography and
soil profile. Buildings will then
better withstand desication of soils
by a hot dry season.
Poor drainage from gutters,
broken sewers, and leaky water
mains are also seen as causes for
difficulty with expansive clay
soils. They usually cause large
movements within a short time.
In addition there is the possibility
of the soil becoming sufficiently
softened by prolonged wetting to
cause settlement of a structure.
Accident Prevention
(Continued from Page 1)
safety is not one individual’s prob
lem; it is “your problem and my
problem,” he said. A safety en
gineer, or director, is a long-range
ideal, he said, but many problems
have to be worked out.
Safety will have to be sold to
each person—student and employee
—at A&M on an individual basis,
Hill emphasized.
Another need faced by the Com
mittee is a good accident-report
ing system. On this matter, Hill
said that the System Committee
hopes to have a uniform system set
up at its first meeting, which is
expected to be held in the next
few weeks.
The College Committee deferred
action on both the safety engineer
recommendation and further action
of a reporting system until after
the System Committee meets.
Members of the College Accident
Prevention Committee are Herman
B. Segrest, chairman; W. B. Brea-
zeale, Dr. G. S. Trevino, Raymond
L. Rogers, Maj. Charles M. Tay
lor, L. P. Cobble, F. D. Nixson, B.
F. K. Mullins, Dr. A. F. Isbell,
Herbert W. Whitney and Bill Ful
lerton.

LUCKY DROODLES!
WHAT’S
THIS?
For solution, see
paragraph below.
EVERY ONE OF THE PEOPLE in the Droodle above (titled:
Lucky smokers playing poker) has a good deal. Because
they all smoke Luckies, they all enjoy better taste.
Luckies taste better, first of all, because Lucky Strike
means fine tobacco. Then that tobacco is toasted to taste
even better . . . cleaner, fresher, smoother. So light up
a Lucky yourself. You’ll rate it aces high for smoking
enjoyment. DROODLES, Copyright 1953 by Roger Price
