Adam, who served with the Tex as Agricultural Extension Service in many capacities from 1928 until his death March 2(5, 1958, had gained recognition in several phases of extension work, partic ularly or-ganization and planning. His work in these fields led the Turkish Government to request his services as extension adviser to the Turkish Minister of Agricul ture in 1957. During the past seven years he had been serving as staff assistant in the handling of foreign students attending A&M. Hughes, who died April 7, 1958, had been a member of the A&M faculty from 1920 until his re- tii'ement in 1947.
