Harrington, chancellor of the A&M College System, re plied that he thought the political realities of legislative appropria tions make it easier to obtain lump sum appropriations for “average” increases than to obtain money for higher salary increases for se lected personnel. Thus the uni versity may obtain a lump sum appropriation representing a five per cent average increase and use that money to grant 15 per cent salary increases for selected teachers. But H. B. Zachry, chairman of the A&M College System Board of Directors, i n d i c a t ed that he thought the proposition of merit raises for college faculty members would meet with favor among the legislators, providing a set of standards could be worked out that would be applicable to all institutions. Both Harrington and A&M President Earl Rudder emphasized the need for higher salaries for “key” teachers if the state is to build toward “quality education,” Harrington said the state has “almost been just a training ground for out-of-state institu tions in the west and middle-west. “They (the out-of-state colleges and universities) just come along and take the teachers they want,” he said, by offering higher salar ies than Texas can pay.

College Ave. At 33rd Free Parking TA 2-0139—TA 2-0130 By-Products Used Due to TTI Research The Texas Transportation Insti tute has announced its research has resulted in the conversion of millions of tons of industry by products into valuable building ma terials. Bob M. Callaway, institute engi neer, says new uses -for by-prod ucts of the rock asphalt mining in dustry and skid-resistant asphaltic surfacing have been found. “Texas is embarked on a major roads building program,” Galla- ivay said. “We are using np our first quality sands and gravel at a fast rate, and are faced with necessity for developing better, safer highway surfaces.” Callaway has headed research aimed at converting the two major by-products of Texas industry— now stockpiled in masses totaling more than 2,000,000 tons. The screenings of “fines” left over as a by-product of mining rock asphalt have been developed by the Institute into successful hot-mix surfacing materials. Surfacing mixtures using the rock asphalt fines already have been put on two residential streets here. An institute spokesman says the paving is standing up un der traffic in good shape. ' Rock asphalt screenings were used recently in Interstate High way 35 near Laredo. This high way carries eight traffic lanes and the hot mix utilizing the rock fines extends for several miles. It is hoped the material may be used for patching old road sur faces, weathered or damaged by traffic. Slag has been used to produce a high-quality, skid-resistant pave ment and fly-ash has been incor porated into cement concrete mix es where it is used as a partial replacement for cement.
