The 1 out of 20
that didn’t get smoked
HP here’s a lot of satisfaction in pointing out something good to a friend. That’s why
1 it often happens that one cigarette out of a pack of Dual Filter Tareytons never does
get smoked.
People break it open to demonstrate its unique Dual Filter containing Activated
Charcoal. They may not know why it works so well, but they do know this: It delivers
far more than high filtration ... it brings out the best taste of the best tobaccos-05
no single filter can!
Try a pack of Tareytons. We believe the extra pleasure they bring will soon have
you passing the good word to your friends.
NEW DUAL FILTER
Product of ij’/mt
HERE’S HOW THE DUAL FILTER DOES IT:
1. It combines a unique inner filter of ACTIVATED CHARCOAL
... definitely proved to make the smoke of a cigarette mild
and smooth ...
2. with an efficient pure white outer filter. Together they bring
you the real thing in mildness and fine tobacco taste!

Ike, Adenauer
At Agreement
On Basic Policies
WASHINGTON (A») — President
Eisenhower and Chancellor Kon
rad Adenauer were reported in

Cash Scholarship
Made Available
*
By Ralston Purina
The Ralston Purina Scholarship,
a $500 cash stipend, will be avail
able for the 1960-61 school year,
according to Dr. T. E. McAfee,
professor in the Department of
Agronomy and chairman of the
scholarship committee for the
School of Agriculture.
According to McAfee, the schol
arship is awarded by the Ralston
Purina Co. of St. Louis, Mo., and
is open to any junior majoring in
agriculture.
It is designed to give recogni
tion and assistance to undergrad
uate students in agriculture, and
also to further activity and re
search in this field.
Selection for the award will be
made in the spring, and will be
based on scholastic) standing, lead
ership, character, extra-curricular
activities, sincerity of purpose and
financial need, McAfee said.
Application for the scholarship
should be made through the office
of the Dean of Agriculture, with
the application forms completed
and returned by April 15, he added.
The scholarship is one of several
made available annually in each
of the 50 land-grant colleges and
state universities in the U. S., and
in Puerto Rico and Canada.
ASME Members
Attent Gas Meet
Six members of the student
chapter of the A&M American So
ciety of Mechanical Engineers at
tended the annual meeting of the
Gas Turbine and Hydraulic Divi
sion of the ASME, held in Houston
last week. They acted as student
aides for the meeting.
They were accompanied by their
faculty advisor, P. D. Weiner, as
sistant professor in the Depart
ment of Mechanical Engineering.
Students attending were C. A.
Bollfrass, C. E. Carter, A. D.
Branum, O. V. Hoernig, R. L. Max
well and V. E. Malanax,
Eisenhower scheduled a morn
ing news conference at which he
was certain to be questioned about
his 1%-hour meeting with Ade
nauer Tuesday.
The chancellor was guest of
honor at a National Press Club
luncheon where he was due to
speak and respond to questions.
Prior to the Press Club session
Adenauer arranged to meet with
labor leaders and with Dean Ache-
son, secretary of state under for
mer President Truman.
Adenauer’s foreign minister,
Heinrich von Brantano, said fol
lowing the discussions at the
White House and State Depart
ment: “I am leaving the State
Department convinced there afe
no differences between Bonn and
Washington as regards all decisive
questions.”
-Adenauer, on his way to Tokyo,
came here to seek assurance that
the President was dead set against
negotiating any summit agreement
with the Soviet Union at the ex
pense of the position of the West
ern powers in West Berlin.
The 84-year-old chancellor is
known to feel that the present ar
rangement whereby U. S., British
and French forces on the scene
guarantee the independence of
West Berlin cannot be improved
upon by any negotiated agree
ment.
U. S. officials said the Presi
dent gave assurance that there
would be no compromise on basic
protection for the position of West
Berlin as a Western city sur
rounded by East Germany.
A joint statement issued follow
ing the White House meeting said
that Eiesenhower and Adenauer
reasserted their determination to
try to achieve “the reunification
of Germany in peace and free
dom.”
“They further agreed,” the state
ment said, “that the preservation
of the freedom of the people of
West Berlin, and their right of
self-determination, must underline
any future agreement affecting
the city.”

Federal Aviation Agency
Reveals New Title, Program
In its accelerated program to
greatly improve air safety, the
Federal Aviation Agency has an
nounced a new name and impor
tant new and stepped-up pilot
services at Bryan College Station’s
FAA Air Traffic Communication
Station.
It will now be called FAA
Flight Service Station and will
still be located on Easterwood
Field.
William S. Hall, station chief,
said today, “There are more than
250,000 individual flights a day
over the nation. Over 90 per cent
of these flights are made under
FAA’s Visual Flight rules, and
only 10 per cent of these flights
are made on instruments. Most
of our work here at BryamCollege
Station’s FAA Flight Service Sta
tion aid this large group of visual
flying pilots.”
Last year more than 13,000 pi
lots responded to the radio call
“College Station Radio” and were
helped to make their flight safer.
Hall Explains Flight Plans
Hall explained that flight plans,
filed by pilots under Visual Flight
Rules, now are being teletyped to
each FAA Facility along the
planned flight route, instead of
only to the destination station.
Each FAA Flight Service Sta
tion which receives a flight plan
computes the time at which the
airplane is due over each station’s
area. The FAA specialist on duty
is able to immediately relay to the
pilot any last minute weather
changes or other flight hazards
ahead.
Weather Reporting System
“The new system,” FAA Station
Chief Hall said, “also makes pos
sible the maximum u^e of the new
pilot weather reporting system re
cently established between the
FAA, the military and civilian
pilots.
“This is a voluntary general
weather reporting plan tlndbr
which each pilot aloft reports any
weather he is flying in or can see
that might cause a hazard to fly-

ing; These helpful weather re
ports are then relayed to other
pilots in the area.”
The Bryan-College Station FAA
Flight Service Station, as do the
335 other such stations throughout
the nation, also aids the pilots by
accepting and closing flight plans,
offering pre-flight briefing to pi
lots, furnishing point-to-point
communication, broadcasting reg
ular weather information, giving
expert assistance to aircraft in
trouble, and, when necessary, in
itiating search and rescue actions.
At Bryan-College Station there
are 8 people highly trained for
this work.
Giant Program
Hall commented today, “This
stepped-up service to private and
executive pilots is a part of the
Federal Aviation Agency’s giant
program to modernize the federal
airways, and to do all that it can
to foster and develop civil avia
tion.”
Created by Congress in the fall
of 1958, the authoritative Federal
Aviation Agency, in addition to
modernizing the airways and fos
tering the development of civil
aviation, has the task of directing
air traffic control of both civil and
military aircraft, allocating the di
minishing airspace and both issu
ing and enforcing air safety rules,
said Hall.
Civilian Grades
(Continued from Page 1)
Milner and Bizzell Hall tied for
last place with a 1.21. Bizzell jun
iors were also low with a 1'.14 GPR.
Hart and Walton Hall seniors
tied for last place, each group
posting a 1.22. Fifth sixth and
graduate students from Law and
Mitchell Hall were low among their
class with a 1.81 grade point ratio.
12.4 Per Cent Distinguished
The list of distinguished stu
dents for the fall semester shows
that 12.4 per cent of the total
civilian undergraduate enrollment
distinguished last semester.
The sophomores led the rest of
the four classes, with 38, or 18.7
per cent of them making the dis
tinguished student list. The per
centages of the other classes mak
ing the DS list in order is: Seniors,
208 or 16.3 per cent of the class;
juniors, 85 or 10.5 per cent and
freshmen, 12 or 2.5 per cent of the
class.
