The A&M Research Foundation
has received two grants totaling
$109,100 from the National Science
Foundation to support atmospheric
research in the Department of
Oceanography and Meteorology.
One of the grants is for $74,100
and is for the support of a two-
year research project on “Strato
spheric Patterns.” Dr. W. J. Sau
cier, professor of meteorology, is
the' principal investigator.
The second grant totals $35,000
for a two-year research project en
titled “A Study of Meso-Scale Dis
turbances in the Atmosphere by
Numerical Methods,” Dr. Yoshi-
kazu is the principal investigator.
Saucier will study all available
weather data fi-om the upper por
tion of the atmosphere and analyze
variations that occur in this zone

acting instructor of meteorology.
Sasaki’s research project will
deal with the use of machine com

weather systems of a moderate
size. Some of the numerical work
will be done on the IBM-704 digi
tal computer that is scheduled to be
available on the campus later this
year.
Assisting Sasaki will be Stanley

Teacher Meet
Held Saturday
Draws 150
“The experience gained by the
student teacher is of increasing
importance in the preparation of
teachers,” Dr. Milo E. Kearney of
Austin stated Saturday at A. & M.
College.
Dr. Kearney, director of Teacher
Education and Certification for the
Texas Education Agency and vice-
president of the Texas Association
for Student Teaching, was the key
note speaker at an Area Conference
on Student Teaching.
Approximately 150 elementary
and high school teachers and ad
ministrators and college personnel
engaged in the training of teachers
attended the one-day meeting which
was held in the Memorial Student
Center.
Kearney declared that both the
teacher training institutions and
the public schools have major roles
and responsibilities in the student
teacher program. “The quality of
student teachers’ experience is di
rectly reflected in the success of be
ginning teachers in our school sys
tems,” he said.
Delegates to the conference held
group discussions on such problems
as the proper assignment of stu
dent teachers in public schools, the
recruitment and admission require
ments of prospective teachers in
the teacher education program, the
quality of teaching experience for
student teachers, the evaluation of
student teaching and the adminis
trative, supervisory and financial
aspects of the student teaching
program.
Also during the conference,
Kearney discussed an experimental
project that is being conducted in
a number of school systems in the
state by Dr. Emmit Smith of West
Texas State College, Canyon.
He stated that the purpose of
this experiment, which is financed
by the school systems and the
Fund for the Advancement of Edu
cation, is to demonstrate the possi
bility of the cooperating teachers
being released from their teaching
duties one period a day for guid
ance of the student teachers.
Dr. John B. Page, dean of the
College, gave the welcome talk at
the conference which was held un
der the sponsorship of A&M and
Sam Houston State College in co
operation with the Texas Associa
tion for Student Teaching and the
Texas Education Agency.
Conference co-chairmen were Dr.
Paul Hensarling of the Department
of Education and Psychology, at
A&M, and Dr. Suler Ryan, head of
the Education Department, Sam
Houston State College.

Professor Visits
Geophysics Works
Dr. Peter Dehlinger, professor of
geophysics, at A&M, recently vis
ited the Geophysics Branch of the
U. S. Geological Survey in Denver,
Colo. Purpose of the trip was to
become familiar with the research
program of the Branch and with
new seismic modeling equipment
which the Survey is purchasing.
The Survey is making the model
ing equipment available for grad
uate student research, sponsored
jointly by the College and the
Survey. Two graduate students, T.
K. Bhattacharyya and D. K.
Chowdhury of India plan to spend
the summer in Denver using the
new equipment on research in seis
mic wave propagation. Both stu
dents are working toward Ph. D.
degrees in geophysics in the De
partment of Geology and Geo
