Ag. Eco. and Sociology Department
To Offer New Curriculum Sept. 1
The Department of Agricultural
Economics and Rural Sociology
will offer a new curriculum, food
distribution, effective Sept. 1.
Dr. G. M. Watkins, dean of the
School of Agriculture, said the
course will be offered within the
agricultural administration option
in the Department of Agricultural
Economics and Rural Sociology.
He said representatives of the
college met recently with food in
dustry leaders and reviewed the
proposed food distributioii curric
ulum.
Texas’ Rapid Growth
The rapid growth of the food
distribution industry in Texas,
particularly the upsurge of super
market food stores during the past
decade, has opened many oppor
tunities for college graduates with
specialized training in food distri
bution, Dean Watkins said.
A&M College, he said, has the
facilities and staff to adequately
meet this educational need, thus
mutually benefiting the students,
the food distribution industry and
citizens of the state.
. .college offers. .
“The college offers a wide vari
ety of areas of study suited to the
food industry, which ranges
through plant and animal science,
food and fiber technology, business
administration and agricultural
economics and sociology,” Watkins
said.
Another feature at A&M which
facilitates a food distribution cur
riculum is the research program
conducted by the Texas Agricul
tural Experiment Station of the
A&M College System. The pro
gram includes research in food and
fiber production, processing and
marketing, as well as consumer ac
ceptance, preference and motiva
tional research.
Varied Courses
Courses of study included in the
new food distribution curriculum,
Dean Watkins said, comprise
standard basic college subjects and
agricultural economics courses and
also horticulture, meats, poultry
products, dairy products, adver
tising, social psychology, sales
management, finance and business
management.
He said the Department of Agri
cultural Economics and Rural So
ciology at A&M has pioneered
teaching of the business and hu
man side of the total agricultural
industry since 1919.
“The food distribution curricu
lum constitutes another step i:
progress,” Dean Watkins said.

Fence-sitting isn’t the safest occupation for
the small fry, even if it is fun.
But fence-sitting for grown-ups is neither
safe nor fun!
A man has to take a stand. He must let the
world know his convictions. He must live them!
The principles in which we believe can perish
while we dawdle uncommitted, uncertain or un
churched.
Behind the iron curtain men who are deter
mined to overthrow freedom and faith hide
neither their communism nor their atheism.
Here in America on a Sunday morning; no
man can afford to sit on the fence IF he believes
in God, and in the right to worship Him in the
Church of his choice.
THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is ihe greatest factor on
earth for the building of character and
good citizenship. It is a. storehouse of
spiritual values. Without a strong Church,
neither democracy nor civilization can
survive. There are four sound reasons
why every person should attend services
regularly and support the Church. They
are: (I) For his own sake. (2) For his
children’s sake. (3) For the sake of his
community and nation. (4) For the sake
of the Church itself, which needs his
moral and material support. Plan to go
to church regularly and read your Bible
daily.

Oklahoma Takes
Pick of Texas Stars
By HAROLD V. RATLIFF
Associated Press Sports Writer
Oklahoma is making an excel
lent recruiting stab into Texas,
getting all-state football players
right and left. The way the Soon-
ers are going the entire starting
lineup in 1961 may be Texans in
stead of nine or ten.
Little has been said by South
west Conference members about
the Sooner raids although some of
the boys were under letters of in
tent. A far cry from only a few
years ago when there were threats
and recriminations when Oklahoma
came up with star schoolboy pros
pects.
Remember Bobby Boyd and Mike
McClellan? Southern Methodist
hit the roof when Oklahoma grab
bed Boyd, the Garland star who
had signed with SMU. McClellan
went to Oklahoma after a year as
a freshman at Baylor. The roar
of the Baptists has only recently
died down.
What’s the reason for the
change in attitude? Simple: Okla
homa got beat. Texas has licked
the Sooners the past two years.
Oklahoma also lost to Northwest
ern, Notre Dame and Nebraska.
The bone of contention was that
Southwest Conference schools were
being beaten by the boys they felt
they were entitled to. Also, Okla
homa, riding high, wide and hand
some, was giving Texas colleges
a condescending look. The germ
of jealousy broke its hounds.
It’s all changed now. The Texas
colleges are doing just, as well if
not better than Oklahoma and they
also know that the Texas boys Ok
lahoma had been getting, were no
better than the boys the Texas
colleges kept for themselves. Per
haps Oklahoma had been doing
more with material—better coach
ing?—and the Southwest Confer
ence cpaches are just catching up.
16.000 Visit
A&M Campus
During May
Commencement, comissioning ex
ercises, Mother’s Day and other
scheduled activities during May at
tracted more than 16,000 visitors
to the campus P. L. Downs Jr., of
ficial college greeter, announced
recently.
An estimated 10,000 persons vis
ited the campus for graduation and
coirimissioning programs.
Attendance at conferences, short
courses, class reunions and other
scheduled meetings during May
totalled 16,700 Downs reported.
During the period from June 1,
1959, to June 1, 1960, more than
60.000 persons visited the campus
for Parent’s Day, commencement 1 ,
Military Day, conferences, class
reunions and other scheduled meet
ings.
The college had 652,276. visitors
on the campus for scheduled meet
ings and activities during the 11-
year period that ended June 1,
1960.
Dr. Cronk Tells
€ of C Directors
OfWindTunnel
The United States had a first in
supersonic air travel, but it wasn’t
intended to be that way, Dr. A. E.
Cronk, head of the Department of
Aeronautical Engineering, told
members of the Bryan-College Sta
tion Board of Directors Tuesday
morning.
Cronk made the statement in
connection with explaining the op
eration of the new $600,000 wind
tunnel on the campus which is ex
pected to go into full operation
next month.
The first in supersonic air travel
was when one of the first super
sonic airplanes turned sideways in
the air. Cronk said the incident
took place possibly because modi
fications made on the plane had
not been tested in a wind tunnel.
The new tunnel at A&M will be
sued to test scale airplane models
in order that the real plane’s per
formance in the air can be esti
mated.
Faults which could cause death
to the crew and passengers of the
plane if they cause the plane to
be destroyed can possibly be de
tected and corrected through the
wind tunnel research, Cronk said.
Although modification to the old
wind tunnel were completed in
1957, the past three years have
been spent in testing the facility,
determining its ability and accur
acy and detecting any flaws, Cronk
said.
The only educational institution
operated tunnel in the Southwest,
Cronk said the tunnel is one of
the three of its kind in the U. S.
The other two are located on the
coast and Cronk expects the facil
ity will be used extensively by
clients in between the other two
facilities. .<,
The wind tunnel’s first job'will
be for Temco of Dallas," Cronk told
the (directors.
Graduate students will use the
tunnel for educational purposes,
he said.
