Research Still Needs Funds
Proposed increase in funds for
research will have a negligible ef
fect on plans for cancellation of two
Air Force research contracts on the
campus, Archie M. Kahan, execu
tive director of the A&M Research
Foundation said yesterday.
It will probably be some months
before funds are allocated for more
research, even then, funds may not
be given for use in the cancelled
projects, Kahan said.
Workers on the project are now
completing final preparations ne
cessary before closing the research.
Some of the research workers
have resigned, thereby lessening
the number of employes. Unless,
however, there arises some other
solution, some employes will have
to be laid-off within the next 15
days Kahan stated.

Football Officials’ Job Not Easy
Football officials are criticized
because the fans do not understand
the official’s job, Marion Pugh,
quarterback of the National
Championship Aggie team of 1939
and now a Southwest conference
official, told College Station Lions
yesterday.
“An official’s job is not an easy
one,” Pugh said. “Besides knowing
the rules backward and forward,
he must have a good football back
ground and a burning desire to
officiate; a real love for the game.”
Officials are as keyed up as the
players until the game starts, he
added, and he must be prepared to
call the game. He must hustle and
he there with a play. He can see
much better what happens out on
the field than any spectator, Pugh
said.
“Referees make mistakes, just
like anyone else,” said Pugh as he
explained the rulings and answered
questions concerning the game for
the Lions. “But his mistakes are
honest ones, and he is not wrong as
often as most spectators think.”
The Lions also made final plans
for bringing the blood mobile here
next week, as they met in the Me
morial Student Center. Posters
advertising the mobile unit and
asking for Aggie donors are being
placed on the campus.

Ever meet a fanatic?
He’s got just one thing uppermost in his mind.
If he’s looking for a job he’s thinking only of
pay or only of security. Reasonable men, how
ever, weigh these and many other factors when
they’re evaluating career possibilities. Such
factors as opportunity, challenging work, train
ing, professional associates—things fanatics
never bother to consider.

Please send me your free booklet, “Challenge and Opportunity
Name...
The Bell Telephone Companies have a book
let for reasonable men. It’s called “Challenge
and Opportunity.” It’s not the sort of thing
that’ll make a fanatic’s eyes light up, but it
ought to interest a thoughtful young man-
whatever his college background-who is
weighing career possibilities. Get it from your
Placement Officer or send the coupon.
