Fungus Control Effort
Jack Parker, left, a senior fisheries major in the Depart
ment of Wildlife Management, determines the solubility
of one of the fungicides being tested at the college in an
effort to control a fungus that has been destroying bass
eggs at some state fish hatcheries for the past several
years. Parker’s laboratory work is supervised by George
Moskovits, right, as assistant professor in the department.
Fisheries Student
Joins Fungus Fight
Architects to Study
P. Ed. Structures
A fisheries student at A&M has
joined biologists of Texas seeking
to control a fungus that is cutting
heavily into the production of bass
in state fish hatcheries.
Jack Parker of Freeport, a
senior in the Department of Wild
life Management, is carrying out
a segment of a research project
being conducted by the college
for the Texas Game and Fish.Com
mission.
The college’s project with the
Game and Fish Commission is
concerned with the control of par
asitism in state fish hatcheries,
and Parker’s phase of the project
is a search for a compound that
will kill the fungus on fish eggs.
This fungus, which has the
scientific name of “Saprolegnia
parasitica,” has been destroying
bass eggs at some fish hatcheries
in Texas for the past several
years.
When Parker discovers a com
pound that will kill the fungus,
then he must conduct extensive
tests to determine the effects of
the compound on the egg.
Parker, whose laboratory work
is carried out under the supervi
sion of George Moskovits, assist
ant professor in the Department
of Wildlife Management, is one
of 10 outstanding seniors at A&M
selected to do basic research in
the Undergraduate Research Par
ticipation Program of the National
Science Foundation.
Whether limited shelters could
serve in physical education in many
instances in lieu of expensive gym
nasium structures will be deter
mined in research.
The Architectural Research Di
vision of the Texas Engineering
Experiment Station (a part of the
A&M System) has been awarded
a grant by the Education Facilities
Laboratories, Inc. to conduct a
study on the feasibility of using
limited shelters for physical edu
cation.
Educational Facilities Laborator
ies is a nonprofit corporation es
tablished by the Ford Foundation
in 1958, with an appropriation of
$4.5 million, to help American
schools and colleges with their
physical problems by the encour
agement of research, experimenta
tion, and the dissemination of
knowledge regarding educational
facilities.
The project will include an anal
ysis of what is being taught in
physical education and how exist
ing facilities are actually being
used, according to Ben H. Evans,
coordinator of the Architectural
Research Division of the Texas
Engineering Experiment Station.
Existing evidence points to the
conclusion that many of physical
education activities could be con
ducted without costly, overde
signed, gymnasiums, even in mod
erately cold climates. The re
search will attempt to determine
the limits of environmental condi
tions which might be tolerated by
a physical education class and to
investigate ways by which the re
sulting conditions might be real
ized.
The study will involve a survey-
and analysis of existing structures
in schools and in industry that re
late to the problem to determine
what contributions those struc
tures offer toward the solutions of
physical education problems.
Elements and devices for con
trolling the environmental factors
will be sought. The elements may
be architectural, mechanical, or
natural, such as trees, shrubs and

other landscaping materials. The
Architectural Research Division
will use its architectural wind tun

other facilities in the investigation
of the effectiveness of such ele
ments.
At the conclusion of the study
the results will be reported in a
special Texas Engineering Experi

Dr. Wayne C. Hall
Invited to Present
Pap er At Meeting
Dr. Wayne C. Hall, professor
and head of the Department of
Plant Physiology and Pathology,
has been invited to present a re
search paper at the Fourth Inter
national Conference on Plant
Growth Regulation to be held at
Yonkers, N. Y., Aug. 10-14.
Attendance at the conference has
been restricted to approximately
1Q0 world authorities in the plant
hormone field representing 30
countries, including Russia.
The meeting will be conducted
in coordination with the Ninth In
ternational Botanical Congress at
Montreal, Canada, Aug. 19-29, and
is sponsored by the Rockefeller
Foundation, the National Science
Foundation and American industry.
Hall’s paper, entitled “Studies
With C-14-labaled Ethylene,” was
co-authored by Dr. C. S. Miller, an
assistant professor in the Depart
ment of Plant Physiology and
Pathology, and F. A. Herrero, who
recently x’esigned from his position
as a research scientist in the de
partment to return to his home in
Argentina.
Hall also has been appointed as
a consultant on a team to conduct
comprehensive reviews at state ag
ricultural experiment stations.
These reviews are conducted by
the Division of Experiment Sta
tions, Agricultural Research Serv
ice, U. S. Department of Agricul
ture, at the request of the state
experiment stations.
The first review has been sched
uled on cotton research at the Ar
kansas Experiment Station at Fay
etteville, beginning Oct. 6.
Hall and other members of the
team will review the current cot
ton research and will make recom
mendations for improvement.
