O&M Scientists
Take Gulf Tour
The Department of Oceano
graphy and Meteorology left on an
ocean cruise to the Gulf of Mex
ico yesterday to observe the tem
perature, salinity content, amount
of dissolved oxygen and phosphate
content of the water.
Dr. H. J. McLellan is chief sci
entist for the expedition. Guy A.
Franceschini, Louis Capurro, Oscar
Chancey and Frank O’Hara also
are on the cruise.
The project is sponsored by the
Office of Naval Research, and it
will last through Feb. 25. It is
part of a long-term project that
the Navy has been conducting in
the Gulf.
Research is being conducted
aboard the Hidalgo, a 136-foot
wooden ship which was a gift to
A&M from the Pan American Pe
troleum Corporation in January
1958.
This vessel has been on 13 dif
ferent research missions including
a 5,500 mile International Geo
physical Year survey in the sum
mer of 1958.

Lab Helps Aggies
Master Languages
J. J. Woolket, head of the De
partment of Modern Languages,
said recently that since the open
ing of the new 14-station lan
guage laboratory, the progress of
students in all phases has shown
a marked improvement.
“The opening of the laboratory
means that language instruction
at A&M is being conducted in ac
cordance with the most modern
principles which have been devel
oped and proven so effective since
the war,” Woolket said.
The laboratory consists of a
number of stations which resem
ble the study carrels of a library.
Each station is equipped with a
dual-track tape recorder.
The student listens to his les
son on tape and hears his in
structor pronounce the foreign
words and phrases.
TWU Dance Set
For Class of ’60
Plans are being made for a
Class of ’60 dance to be held at
Texas Women’si University on
Saturday, April 25, in the Un
ion Building, Allen N. Burns,
president of the A&M junior, class,
said yesterday.
He said the dance would be
sponsored by the junior class of
TWU for their counterpart at Ag-
gieland. Final arrangements have
not been completed as yet but will
be announced in the near future,
he said.
After hearing each word the
student repeats what he has heard
into the microphone. When the
lesson is completed he rewinds the
tape and listens, comparing his
performance with that of his in
structor.
“Recent investigations have
shown that language teaching is
done more easily and efficiently
when the language is approached
through its spoken form.
“The student must first master
the sound system and then proceed
to a mastery of the sentence pat
terns of the new language. This
he does with his ears and voice.
Under these circumstances lan
guage learning becomes a stimu
lating and exacting activity,”
Woolket said.

By ROBBIE GODWIN
Battalion Staff Writer
The Church of Christ in Col
lege Station has an Aggie for a
minister.
Samuel (Mont) Whitson is
working toward his Ph.D. in agri
cultural economics at the present
time. Although he has attended
Abilene Christian College and
Butler University in Indianapolis,
Whitson is an Aggie now.
He is assisted in his work by
Pence Dacus, who is Bible Chair
director at the present time, and
Jane Ledbetter, church secretary.
The church had its beginning,
like many others, as a student
movement in the YMCA with A.
D. Martin, a professor in the col
lege, leading the meetings.
In 1935, the first church was
built and stood as a landmark
for many years until 1953 when it
The student director’s job was
begun in 1953 and was first held
by Bob Davidson, an athlete and
now a Aggie-ex. He held the posi
tion until the Bible chair was fill
ed by Dacus.
In addition to the main building,
the church offices are located in
the building directly in front and
across the street. The building
houses a TV lounge complete with
soft drink machines, offices for
the ministers and a library. The
minister’s office has its own com
plete library. The meeting room
for the Bible Chair group is lo
cated in the rear of the building.
Whitson has been a Bible di
rector at Texas Tech, where he
stayed from the time of his grad
uation until he took the minister
ial position here in 1957.
During Religious Emphasis
week, daily devotions for students
which usually run from 7:05 to
7:25 p.m. have been stortened so
that students can attend the dorm
itory discussion groups. Whitson
