Somehow it just doesn’t seem like a Christmas parade with
out snow. But even the old, old timers can’t remember it
having snowed in the Rio Grande Valley. With tempera
ture in the 80’s there was only one thing to do—rig it.
Here we see Santa’s helper, Shirley Tobola of Harlingen,
trying out the artificial snow that was dropped from a
plane flying low over the parade route. (AP Wirephoto)

One of the main features of
the Junior Engineering Technical
Society’s southwest regional lead
ership conference here Saturday
will be an awards luncheon honor
ing clubs and individuals.
The society, better known as
JETS, is a pattern for high school
extracurricula clubs to stimulate
interest among junior and senior
high school youths in engineering
and science careers.
Purpose of the conference is to
bring together at all levels those
interested in the promotion and
success of the organization. It is
being held in co-operation with
JETS, Inc., of East Lansing, Mich.
Among those individuals to be
recognized at the luncheon will be
Frank: Oppenheimer of New York
City, president' of the Gramercy
Guild Group and the man who has
made available the Gramercy
JETS Scholarship.
The $250 annual scholarship in
Texas has for the past three years
gone to Donald Patton of College
Station, a junior mechanical en
gineering student at A&M. Patton
was a JETS club member when he
attended A&M Consolidated High
School.
The scholarship can go to the
same student for four years if he
maintains a satisfactory academic
standing.
Texas awards will go to the
Connally High School of Waco for
having the outstanding JETS
club. C. T. Hudson is the club spon
sor.
Mrs. Marie Mosman of Muenster
High School at Muenster will be
honored as the state’s outstand
ing club sponsor.
For Louisiana, the outstanding
JETS club award will go to Is-
trouma High School at Baton
Rouge. And Miss Gertrude Creag-
han of the Istrouma school and
William Lignos of Baton Rouge
will receive honors as top faculty
advisors.
The outstanding company award
goes to the Esso Standard Oil Co.
of Baton Rouge.
Speaker at the luncheon will be
Dr. John C. Calhoun, vice chancel
lor for engineering at A&M and
a member of the board of directors
of JETS, Inc.
J. G. McGuire, assistant to the
dean of engineering here and chair
man of the conference committee,
said registration for the parley
is Dec. 18. The actual program
begins at 9 a.m. the following day
with a welcome address by Fred
Benson, dean of engineering at
A&M.
Next are talks on national or
ganization and objectives by Rich
ard T. Fallon, executive director
of JETS, Inc., and Dr. John D.
Ryder, JETS president and dean
of engineering at Michigan State
University.
The Senior class of A&M Con
solidated High School will present
Moss Hart and George S. Kauf
man’s three-act comedy, “The Man
Who Came to Dinner” Thursday
at the high school auditorium.
The comedy is centered around
the tumult caused by Sheridan
Whiteside, having dined at the
home of the Stanleys’ slips on
their doorstep, breaking his hip.
During his six weeks of conva
lescing in the Stanley home,
;Whiteside utterly destroys do-;
mestic tranquility. Strange gifts
from his friends further compli
cate things; for Mrs. Stanley is
forced to harbor penguins in her
library, an octopus in her cellar,
and 10,000 cockroaches in her
kitchen.
The play, under the direction of
Mrs. Ermine Worrell, will be pre
sented with the following cast:
Ann Elkins as Mrs. Stanley,
Sharon Manning as Miss Preen,
Frank Dui’an as Richard Stanley,
Rebecca McNiel as June Stanley,
Jimmy Holland as John, Lynda

associate professor of electrical
engineering at A&M; Jesse P.
Morgan, assistant dean of engi
neering, New Mexico State Uni
versity, and W. C. Gaddy, state
chairman of the vocational guid
ance committee of the Louisiana
Engineering Society.
Organization and objectives on
the local level will be the subject
of Waddell P. Williams of Marlin,
Texas Highway Department engi
neer; Wesley C. Collier of Stephen
F. Austin High School in Bryan,
and Gordon M’cDugl, president of
