happened in our state parks. We
have no state parks that are ade

one park asks for more money all
the rest ask for a similar increase.
Since the Legislature can’t afford
to put them all in top shape at
once the net result is that all of
them are underdeveloped,” McGee

said.
Dr. M. T. 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.

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.
