Wynes Given Summer Grant An instructor in the Department of History and Government at Texas A&M College, Charles E. Wynes, has been awarded a re search grant by one of the oldest learned societies in the United States, the American Philosophical Society. Purpose of the grant is for Wynes to devote full time during the summer of 1960 to the compil ing and editing of “Southern Sketches,” by Mrs. Orra Lang- horne. For 30 years (1870-1900) Mrs. Langhorne contributed a monthly column of that title on life in post-Civil War Virginia to the Southern Workman, published at Hampton, Virginia. Wynes has been with A&M two years and is a native of Rector- town, Va. He received his B.S. degree in Education at Madison College, Harrisonburg, Va., in 1952, with a major in history and minors in English and biology and received an M.A. degree in history from the University of Virginia in 1957. He recently completed his dissertation for the Ph.D. degree in history at Virginia. During 1956-58 he was Phelps-Stokes Fel low at the U. of Va. He is a member of Kappa Delta Chi, Delta Kappa and several pro fessional historical societies, in cluding the Mississippi Valley His torical Assn. He is also the author of three articles on American Colonial religious history, banking in the Middle Period and post-Civil War politics in Virginia. The articles appeared in the University of Virginia Essays in History and in the Virginia Magazine of History and Biography. Wynes served as a lieutenant, USNR, education and' training officer for enlisted personnel at the Naval Air Station, Corpus Austin Students Began Picketing Downtown Today AUSTIN UP)—Negro and white youths demanding desegregated lunch counters began picketing- downtown establishments in Texas’ capital city today.

Bond BRYAN, TEXAS TV - Radio - HiFi Service & Repair GILS RADIO & TV TA 2-0826 101 Highland professor in the Department of Wildlife Management who will direct the program, said the re search study will be concerned with the cranial morphology of Syr- rhophus marnocki, a type of frog found in Texas and one which is closely related to tropical frogs of Mexico, South America and Aus tralia. Three undergraduate students will be chosen to participate in the program. Students interested in the project are urged to contact Baldauf for details. A stipend will be awarded to participants. Students chosen for the program, Baldauf said, will be required to prepare serial sections of tissues and to present an illustrated description of the cranial anatomy of the species. Results will be published in a recognized scientific journal. Baldauf has been studying frog and toad morphology for several years. Among studies published by the teacher and researcher is one that appeared in a recent issue of the Journal of Morphology. The article presents a new theory on the evolution and relationship of toads with other closely related amphibians. He is currently director of the A&M Undergraduate Research Participation Program. CONSOLIDATED (Continued from Page 1) cept the honorary ones, which carry no money) vary according to the need of each individual win ner, from a minimum of $100 a year to a maximum of $1,500 a year. The procedure for determina tion of a student stipend is similar to that followed by most colleges. Family resources, summer earn ings of the student, and the costs of attending the college the winner has chosen are all considered in determining the amount that ac companies each award. The sti pends are designed to provide the difference between available sources and total college costs, up to the before mentioned maximum. Most of the scholarships also include a gift for the college chosen by the student, ranging from $100 to $500 a year. John M. Stalnaker, president of National Merit Scholarship Corp., hailed the 1,000 new merit scholars and 9,000 of their fellow finalists as being “among America’s finest academic prospects for the future.” He noted that Governor Price Daniel, along with the governors of 29 other states, has declared today as Merit Scholar Day. In the first five years of the merit program about 4,000 scholar ships have been awarded with an estimated value of $20,000,000. The West Berlin Zoo bought a mailed hippopotamus from hunters in India this year. Cost was about $12,000, raised by a lottery. / „ AS ADVERTISED IN Truval WASH and WEAR short-sleeve dress shirt $4.00 3 for $10.95 , # . 1 This Wash and Wear drip-dty dress shirt by Truval is made of a fine satin stripe white cotton mesh.

Get jours today! ^Jhe (^xclianc^e lore “Serving Texas Aggies” > ■« «. ■> uNi■ —miiB iUim, ■ WASHINGTON UP)—House payola investigators summoned three statistical specialists today to report their own interpretation of an analytical study of Dick Clark’s TV disc jockey show. The study, made for Clark by a New York statistical firm, re ported that Clark could have had a personal financial interest in 27 per cent of the songs played on his matinee music show. By im plication, it showed he had no per sonal interest in 73 per cent of the songs he played. Rep. John E. Moss (D-Calif.) promptly challenged the survey results, calling them misleading and incomplete. “We have asked these three ex perts to analyze the study,” Rob ert W. Lishman, chief counsel of the Legislative Oversight subcom mittee, told a reporter. “And they are going to tell us whether it has any validity or whether it doesn’t.” Lishman implied Tuesday that Clark, the nation’s best known disc jockey, has dished out payola to other deejays to promote rec ords in which he has : a,personal financial stake. . Lishman raised this point in asking Thomas Noonan, research director for Billboard Magazine, what weight is given to Clark in compiling the trade publication’s weekly ratings of the top 100 hit tunes. “Do the ratings,” Lishman asked, “take into account that he or his companies have paid payola to numerous disc jockeys throughout the country?” Noonan replied that payola was considered but that it was impos sible to gauge it with any accur acy. To this, Lishman inquired how Clark’s influence could be meas ured “if you don’t know the ex tent of payola he has paid?” ANGUS CONFERENCE TO BE HELD MAY 11-13 Cattlemen from throughout Tex as and many areas of the nation will be attending the sixth annual American Angus Conference to be held here May 11-13. “Pacing Progress for Greater Profit” is the theme of the session, which will feature talks on use of records in comercial cattle produc tion, herd classification and inter pretation of Angus herd improve ment records. Conference members also will see a demonstration of a machine which ultrasonically meas ures the loin eye of a live animal. Joe Keefauver of Jonesboro, Tenn., president of the American Angus Assn., said cattlemen of •the .Southwest should ,be especially ■ interested in a panel discussion on merchandising of Angus cattle. This portion of the program will cover feeder salf sales, public auc tions of purebred and private treaty sales. Also included will be an outlook report on the export market. The three-day meeting is spon sored by the American and Texas Angus Associations in cooperation with Texas A&M. Some of the speakers and their subjects are Louis P. Merrill of Midlothian, “Using Herd Classifi cation”; T. Books Porter of Austin, “Merchandising Angus Cattle”; Herman Allen of Menard, “Feeder Calf Sales”; Milton E. Miller of Brady, “Private Sales and Export Possibilities”; Dr. A. M. Sorensen, Jr., A&M, “Dry Cows Are for the Rich”; L. D. Wythe, A&M, “Re port on Angus Sire Groups,” and Dr. jO. D. Butler, head of the De partment of Animal Husbandry, “Heritability of Carcass Traits.” President Earl Rudder will give an address of welcome to the group. Roy Snyder, meats special ist with the Texas Agricultural Extension Service, will be in charge of a “Texas Chuck Wagon Feed” at The Grove at 5 p. m. on , the first day of the conference. >*hhN The l out of 20 that didn’t get smoked sphere’s a lot of satisfaction in pointing out something good to a friend.
