Area Teachers Being Mailed Meet Invites This week hundreds of schools and colleges in the southern half of Texas will receive their annual let ter from the Internal Revenue Service inviting their teachers to assist in the 1961 program of “Teaching Federal Income Taxes.” Invitations this year are being ex tended to colleges of commerce, business administration, and agri culture. R. L. Phinney, District Director of Internal Revenue, Austin, an nounced today that the 1961 pro gram is expected to exceed sub stantially the 1960 participation. College deans and junior and senior high school principals will receive, along with their letters of invitation, a worksheet on which to consolidate requests from their teachers, and an order card with which to place their school orders. Instructional material is in a handy Teacher’s Kit containing Teacher’s Manual, blow-ups, and instructions for completing returns. Student handbooks, furnished in quantities requested, follow the Teacher’s Manual closely and prob lems are keyed to the manual con tents. All materials are free of charge. “Teaching Federal Income Tax es” has been endorsed by Dr. J. W. Edgar, Commissioner of Educa tion, and is especially adaptable to courses of accounting, bookkeeping, civics, mathematics, and vocational agriculture. Completion of these tax studies teaches students the im portance of this civic responsibility, where their tax dollars go, and permits them to prepare their own returns for income from summer jobs and to help their parents with their returns. Phinney urges teachers to con tact their principals now and place their orders for their kits and stu- ients workbooks. Materials will be iistributed during January to coin cide with the income tax filing period. However, instruction may be given at any time during 1961 at the discretion of the teacher. Inquiries about the “Teaching Federal Income Taxes” program should be addressed to Internal Revenue Service, Austin, Texas. GOP Blamed For Steel Unemployment By the Associated Press ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.—Sen. John F. Kennedy, speaking Mon day before the United Steelwork ers Union Convention, said the Eisenhower administration was to blame for joblessness, including 100,000 steelworkers. The convention later endorsed the Democratic presidential nomi nee. Won Okay Kennedy won the endorsement although he rejected a 32-hour work week proposal advanced re cently by David J. McDonald, steel workers union president, McDon ald urged the 32-hour week as a means of spreading employment. The tanned, smiling Kennedy re ceived an ovation as he appeared before the 3,000 delegates who rep resent the union’s half million members. The steelworkers reportedly are still bitter over , President Eisen hower’s use of a federal injunction to halt their 116-day 1959 strike at what they regained as a crucial stage. Prize Bike Last Friday was the Mexican equivelant to our July 4, and was celebrated this year by the first international bicycle race.

Waiting for the winners will be a number of prizes, one of which is shown here—the bicycle, not Beebe Esparza. (AP Wirephoto) Need Money? Buy A Printing Press By TOMMY HOLBEIN Battalion Feature Editor Need some money? Buy a print ing press! With this thought in mind, two Aggies did buy a press and are now in the specialty printing busi ness at North Gate. J. D. Davidson, senior personnel administration major from Dumas and Alberto W. Saldana, senior ac counting major from Hebbronville decided to go into business for themselves during the summer, and through luck and shrewd business ability, were able to acquire a Platen printing press and a large assortment of type at a minimum price. Davidson, who has had three year’s experience in the commer cial printing field, one year in his home town of Dumas and two years working for a printing firm in College Station, will do all the typesetting and more technical de tails involved in printing job or ders! Saldana’s Duties Saldana will handle the book keeping end of the business, and will also produce a specialty of the shop, embossing, which creates a raised surface on stationery. The pair of printers have named their shop the Robbia Printing Co., after a face of type known as “Dela Robbia”, which they will use on many of their stationery orders. “We have a large selection of type right now, and should be able to give the customer just about what he might want in the way of specialty printing,” said David son. Their work will include Christ mas cards, business cards, wedding invitations, and personalized sta tionery at special prices. Outfit Goals “We hope to print up outfit sta tionery before the year is out; our special rates on stationery are open only to students,” said Sal dana. Their embossing work, or raised lettering on stationery can be done in all colors, including gold. Also,. Davidson said they have lined up orders with three large paper com panies in Texas, and will be able to offer a person anything he might want in the way of paper for any specialty job. “Since we’ve opened the Robbia Printing Co. on Sept. 5, we have already received more orders than we can handle at present. Right now, we hhve to handle the busi ness on a strictly part-time basis, and in several weeks we should be fully set up. “We’ve ordered more type, and a new embossing machine is on the way. I had to turn down an order for 100,000 wrappers the other day for a large company in Bryan, be cause we don’t have the equipment to handle that kind of volume. Specialty Work “Our product is specialty job work like wedding invitations and stationery, and a student can hard ly handle a full printing business and a full degree plan at the same time. Since both of us hope to graduate someday, we have to keep the business on a part-time basis, except on the weekends,” said Da vidson. Davidson and Saldana thought at first they would have some trouble finding a location for their print ing business, but were again lucky when they had an opportunity to lease the shop where Floyd’s Radio Shop, two blocks east of the Post office at North Gate, used to be. All orders from fellow students can be taken at the proprietors’ room, Walton Hall, H-13, said Da vidson. “We’re not actually printing money at the shop, but from the looks of things, our investment might indirectly print us up more money than we ever thought we’d have at A&M,” he added.

Coulter & Texas — TA 2-6025 — Bryan Murehisons Ousted From Big Company By the Associated Press MINNEAPOLIS — The brothers John and Clint Murchison Jr. of the Texas oil family Monday were ousted from the board of Investors Diversified Services, Inc., mam moth Minneapolis-based investment company. Onetime controllers of the firm, they were accused by current con trolling interests of obstructing the work of the board and with re fusing to disclose personal trans- Adequate Protein Interest Behind Research Program Universal interest in assuring adequate protein for populations in the future has prompted research at the Texas Engineering Experi ment Station to produce a high- protein cottonseed meal suitable for human food uses. The work is being accomplished in cooperation with Cotton Research Committee of Texas. In this work' at the Station’s Cot tonseed Products Research Labora tory both modification of process ing and upgrading of the meal or cake are being attempted, accord ing to A. Cecil Wamble, manager of the Cottonseed Products Re search Laboratory. In the research prepressing has given 50 to 55 per cent protein from cottonseed from many parts of the South. Also, prepressing of coarse cottonseed meats has re sulted in much removal of gossypol with the oil. In the work also coarse cotton seed meats have been found to withstand much storage if of good quality and not too high in mois ture. actions between themselves and persons who dealt with the IDS and its subsidiaries during the time they headed the firm. Through an attorney represent ing them at the special stockhold ers meeting Monday, the Murchi- sons labeled these charges “mis leading”. Removed by Vote They ( were removed by a vote of 320,812 shares to 101,977. The vote against them included 277,472 shares held by Alleghany Corp., which owns 48 per cent of the IDS stock and controlling interest. IDS manages the investment of some three billion dollars. The Murehisons obtained control in 1955 but transferred a large block of voting stock to Alleghany last winter as a result of a stockholder suit against Alleghany. Recently it was revealed Mur chison interests and close associ ates had bought about 150,000 ad ditional common shares of Alle ghany, a move regarded as a possible counter attack to get a change in Alleghany and IDS oper ations. The Murehisons maintain the ouster action was intended to de prive them of access to certain records. As part of their fight with Al leghany, the Dallas brothers have filed suit in federal court in New York to set aside last winter’s set tlement under which control was transferred to Alleghany, the hold ing company which also operates tile New York Central Railroad. In their statement read to stock holders by R. J. Leonard, St. Paul attorney, the Murehisons accused Randolph Phillips, New York fi nancial consultant, of obtaining his position on the IDS board through a conspiracy to commit fraud against the courts.

The Lubbock school, which was officially admitted to the confer ence in 1956, has waited four years to get going in the prestige-filled Southwest Conference and prom ises to be exceptionally high for the clash. The Aggies, on the other hand, have been edged by Tech the last two years in extremely close games and are also due to be high for the game. The Farmers also made a most impressive opening last Saturday and, with the poor showing made by the other conference teams, promise to be a darkhorse squad of opportunists. In all respects, a big weekend is coming up, no doubt about it. LEVIS MARK I CONTINFNTALS nx- tv rvAW 7_u Exchange ore “Serving Texas Aggies”
