Zapalac Speaks
To Kiwanians
Aggie assistant coach Wil
lie Zapalac spoke to the week
ly meeting of the College Sta
tion Kiwanis Club in the Me
morial Student Center yester
day. He discussed “The 1956
Football Situation at Texas A&M”.
“The tempo is picking up,” the
former Aggie great said. ’“It’s so
soon before the first game that
some of us are getting hard to get
along with. But the situation itself
is better than at any time during
the last 10 years, I would say.”
In other business, a nominating
committee report was read, a mo
tion concerning the officer election
time passed and plans for the an
nual football games box lunch sale
discussed.
The club passed a motion moving
up elections to Oct. 1, after nomi
nations from the floor at the next
meeting.

a repair job. It types like a new one now.”
Yes, Aggies, we can put your typewriter in perfect
operating condition at a minimum of cost to you. Bring
it in today — estimates don’t cost you a thing.

The Mothers and Dads Club bud
get has been discussed and a ten
tative goal set for income and ex
penditures. In the past the club
has provided many items of vital
importance to the school. For this
reason the officers feel that all of
the parents should have an oppor
tunity to voice opinion on the bud
get.
Lists of proposed purchases will
be available at the teachers recep
tion, and at 8:30 following the re
ception, a brief budget meeting
will be held in the cafeteria for
those interested.
Artificial Rain
Is Big Gamble
Says Physicist
Artificial I’ainmaking is “a gam
ble,” Dr. James E. McDonald, as
sociate director of the Institute
of Atmospheric Physics of the Uni
versity of Arizona, told members
of the Second Annual “Water for
Texas” Conference yesterday in
the MSC.
Dr. McDonald was speaking on
the increasing of rain ai’tificially
at the 11:30 a.m. session of the
Conference.
“If you’re desperate and have to
do something, cloud seeding may
be the answer, but it is still a
gamble,” he says.
The cloud physicist told his aud
ience that years of research and
lots of money will have to go into
finding the answers to the ques
tion about artificial rainmaking.
He concedes that it is possible,
under certain conditions, to in
crease rainfall, but maintains that
despite 10 years of intensive re
search “we still don’t have the
answers.”
Dr. McDonald also appealed for
a widespread educational effort on
the pai*t of the press, radio and
television stations to disseminate
only factual information on the
subject to the public.
