High School Senior
Interested in A&M

Frank Hines, 17, of Luling in
Caldwell county is a young man
with a ponderous and far-reaching
problem which often confronts high
school students at this time of
year.
Frank will be graduated this
spring and he is wondering which
college or university to attend.
It’s a question he is not taking
lightly. He already has visited the
campuses of several schools, the
most recent one being A&M.
Frank spent several days here
at the invitation of Reagan Brown,
rural sociologist with the Texas
Agricultural Extension Service,
and George Ohlendorf, 21, of Lock
hart, a senior majoring in rural
sociology.
All three have major factors in
common. Frank and George both
are native sons of Caldwell county
and Brown was county agricultural
agent there about four years ago.
Frank and George were in 4-H
Club work under Brown.
Brown said A&M is always on
the lookout for top boys in agri
culture and they often can be found
in 4-H clubs and FFA chapters.
Frank and George, he said, are ex
cellent examples of how 4-H and
FFA activities can instill respon
sibility and ambition into youths
and prepare them for college.
Hines started his 4-H and FFA
activities with a nondescript, or
phan calf and then raised a Sears
pig. He has produced prize win
ning watermelons and last year at
the Houston Fat Stock Show he
entered the second place capons.
In addition to valuable experi
ence, Frank also salted away a
sizable lump of cash in the bank,
a fund that will go a long ways in
putting him through college.
Ohlendorf was Caldwell county’s
Gold Star 4-H Club boy in 1953.
In his first year at A&M he was
awarded the Anderson, Clayton
Scholarship, Farm Bureau Scholar
ship and Opportunity Award Schol
arship.
He is editor of a student maga
zine, “The Agriculturist”; on the
Who’s Who list at A&M, member
of the Ross Volunteers, president
of the Rural Sociology Club, is a
Battle Group Commander in the
Cadet Corps, is a Distinguished
Military Student and has been a
Distinguished Student scholasti
cally for three semesters.
Hines was a busy visitor while
at A&M. Among the many pro
fessors and officials he met were
Pres. Earl Rudder; Dr. G. M. Wat
kins, dean of the school of agri
culture ; Dr. Tyrus Timm, head of
the department of agricultural eco
nomics and sociology, and J. B.
Hervey, executive secretary of the
Association of Former Students.
SB
Outstanding in 4-H and FFA Activities
Frank Hines, left, of Luling, outstanding in 4-H club work
and FFA activities, visits friends on the A&M campus. He
is shown here with Reagan Brown, center rural sociologist
with the Texas Agricultural Extension Service and George
Ohlendorf, right, of Lockhart, a senior majoring in rural
sociology. Frank and George were in 4-H club work under
Brown, former county agricultural agent of Caldwell coun
ty. Hines is considering A&M for his college education be
cause he believes it offers outstanding educational oppor
tunities in agriculture. Hines will graduate from Luling
high school this semester.
‘Chessman’s Hopes
Depends On Change
In Supreme Court
SAN FRANCISCO 0f>)—Con-
| demned Caryl Chessman’s last
V'-ilmp 0 , perilous
ly thin after nearly 12--''years of
tenacious legal battling, suspends
today from an effort to switch one
vote.
That is the vote of at least one
member of the California Supreme
Court majority. Wednesday the
court—after a series of rapid-fire
developments—decided 4-3 against
recommending clemency for the
jeath row convict-author.
Chessman is slated to die in the
jreen-painted gas chamber at San
Quentin at 10 a.m. Friday. He was
convicted in 1946 of kidnaping
with bodily harm, robbery and sex
ual abuse in Los Angeles.
California Gov. Edmund G.
Brown, at sundown Wednesday,
noted he cannot grant clemency
unless the Supreme Court recom
mends. The law puts this restric
tion on granting mercy to men
convicted previously of felony.
Brown said any further action on
his part depended on what hap
pened in Chessman’s move today
for reconsideration of the 4-3 vote.
The convict’s attorney, George
T. Davis, said his petition for re
consideration would be accompan
ied by a request for a hearing on
a complete brief supporting the
action.
Davis said Wednesday night, af
ter the U. S. Supreme Court, the
California Supreme Court and the
governor acted or commented on
the case, that he didn’t have a
chance to be heard on the 11th
hour clemency appeal.
In Sacramento, Governor Brown
issued a statement saying he was
constitutionally bound, to abide by
the court’s recommendation re
garding clemency. As to a re
prieve—or postponement—of Fri
day’s execution, Brown said he
would not anticipate the court’s
decision on the motion for recon
sideration.
Thus, 24 hours before the crucial
time, Chessman’s fate still was
in doubt.
