The Battalion College Station (Brazos County), Texas PAGE 2 Thursday, September 5, 1957 May Vet Grad Wins $4,000 Keseareli Grant Dr. Delmar R. Cassidy, who was awarded the doctor of veterinary medicine degree at the May commencement, has received a grant of $4,000 from the Dr. Salsbury Labora tories of Charles City, Iowa, for a postdoctoral fellowship. Cassidy is doing graduate work in the School of Veterinary Medicine. Dr. L. C. Grumbles of the De partment of Veterinary Microbiol ogy will direct the studies under the fellowship. Infectious syno vitis, one of the more important diseases of broilers and turkey poults, will be investigated. A relatively new disease, infec tious synovitis was first recognized by Dr. F. K. Willis at A&M in 3 953. This disease is caused by a virus-like agent and can be culti vated in embryonating eggs and on tissue cultures. ■ Cassidy will investigate the ba sic immunilogical and biochemical characteristics of the causative agent and attempt to produce a vaccine that will prevent infection. Branson Attends National Meeting Dr. Robert E. Branson will at tend a national conference called by the U. S. Department of Agri culture to review present and future research plans regarding meat products. Particular atten tion will be given to consumer pre ferences as to different types and grades of beef and other meats. The conference is to be held at the University of Missopri, Colum bia Mo., September 9-10. Branson will appear on the pro gram to discuss the results of several research projects at Texas Agricultural Experiment Station dealing with consumer meat pre ferences. Representatives from A&M also will include Dr. O. D. Butler, head of the Animal Husbandry Depart ment, Dr. Sylvia Cover and Pro fessor Gene T. King. Dr. Cover and King will report on related meat research in the Animal Husbandry Department which is a part of the coordinated meats research program of the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station. Work of these researchers at the Experiment Station and those in several other universities has in dicated the need for a reappraisal of present meat grading methods. It is hoped that new grading pro- cedures can be developed to as sure the housewife a more uniform quality of taste and tenderness in the beef and other meats she purchases for her family. NEW- STUDENT (Continued from Page 1) chaplain. Kamm will address the group, and following yell practice, Robert R. Wunderlich, chaplain, First Wing, will give the benedic tion.

The ants have built mounds up to thi-ee feet high in the state from Houston east along the Gulf Coast. Authorities are studying ways of destroying them. TeXa.s’ first toll road, the Turn pike linking Dallas and Fort Worth will also be featured as cameras take a motor tour along the length of the new arterial. The Women’s National Sailing Championships will be covered by “Texas in Review” cameras. The ladies, from all over the nation, are competing for honors in Corinthian class yachts. Colorful Texan—Tom Hickman, retired Texas Ranger—will be visit ed at his ranch near Gainesville. Razorbaek Nucleus In Ten Iron Men While it’s true that Arkansas may come up with a breakaway threat in a fine-looking group of speedy sophomore halfbacks, the real hard-core of Razorbaek grid success this year will fall back on 10 senior two-year lettermen. These Ten Iron Men will provide the stability, the leadership and a sparkle of their own in Coach Jack Mitchell's third year with the Porkers. Included in the group—which represents an aggregate of 34 years of college football experience —are two veterans of the 1954 championship team, two more play ers who scrimmaged that team and the tri-captain.s for 1957.
