Page 4 College Station, Texas Thursday, February 23, 1961 THE BATTALION Pre-Meds, Pre - Dents Take Annual School Field Trip The Premedical-Predental Soci ety made their annual professional school field trip Saturday when they visited the University of Tex as Medical School at Galveston, Tex. The trip was made by 67 of the members of the Society along with Ford Grant Received By Foundation Design and construction analysis of a new shell-like structure has been given the “go ahead” signal with a grant of $18,050 to the A&M Research Foundation by the Ford Foundation. The research will be conducted by the Texas Engineering Experiment Station and is based on a newly developed “lift-shape” erection process. The process, developed by James H. Marsh, III, assistant professor in the Division of Architecture, in volves a theoretical method for forming thin shell reinforced con crete shapes without using con ventional formwork. The idea is to put together a structural steel skeleton in such a way that it can be fabricated on the ground and then “sprung” into final position for a sprayed-on covering of Vermiculite concrete or other material. Dr. Howard L. Gravett, the So ciety’s faculty sponsor. The four hour tour began with an intro ductory welcome by Dean Kenneth M. Earle, Dean of Medicine and Dean Warren G. Harding, Assist ant Dean of Medicine. One of the highlights of the Society’s trip was a demonstration of dog surgery which employed a heart-lung machine. This machine temporarily replaces the heart and lungs of the animal. Blood pass-t ings through the machine is oxy genated as it would be by the lungs, and is then pumped back into the animal by the artificial “heart-pump.” The operation was A&M UN Club Sets Meeting A program on the Middle East will be given tomorrow night at the meeting of the United Nations Club.

Formal Degree Application Deadline Nears Less than one week remains for graduating seniors to make formal applications for degrees to be con ferred at the end of the present semester, it was announced yester day by H. L. Heaton, director of admissions and registrar. Heaton reminded that the appli cations could be made at his office in the Richard Coke Building. March 1, next Wednesday, is the filing deadline, The deadline, the registrar said, applies to both graduate and undergraduate' candidates for de grees. He added graduate students annually have a tendency to over look filing for their degrees and are confronted later with mounds of red tape. The filing is as much a gradu ation requirement as the passing of a three-hour course, he declared SMALL SIGN OF WILTING Travel Snagged; Pressure Rise On Striking Engineers By The Associated Press WASHINGTON—With air trav el snagged as never before in the nation’s history, the pressure mounted today on striking flight engineers to get back on the job at once. Although the chairman of a fact finding panel appointed by Presi dent Kennedy found ground for optimism, there was little indica>- tion immediately that the strikers would wilt. The walkout started last Friday and reached monumental propor tions this week. The engineers are protesting a ruling by the National Labor Relations Board that engineers and pilots at United Air Lines must be repre sented by one union. The pressure was taking these forms: Five major aixdines, joined at times by a sixth, told the strikers Wednesday that if they “have-not reported their availability for service” by noon today the car riers would withdraw their no reprisals assurances. Secretary of Labor Arthur J. Goldberg said after a meeting with the officials of the six lines Wednesday that “there is no rea son or justification to continue the walkout.” George Meany, president of the AFL-CIO, joined Kennedy in ap pealing to the strikers to return. The optimistic note was sounded by panel chairman Nathan Fein- singer. After his group assembled Wednesday, he said it was pro ceeding “on the assumption that there will be a resumption of pas senger service tomorrow.” He qualified his perception of a rainbow by saying “a feeling of optimism” is a prerequisite to the type of work the panel vras en gaged in. The airlines issued their threat after a conference arranged by the government in an effort to end the strike. Goldberg said the struck Western Airlines had re fused to make the same assur ances of no reprisals if the men got back to work at once. This refusal was one of the fac tors • that held up a vote by the flight engineers on Kennedy’s ap peal. The Flight Engineers Interna tional Association at first said it would poll its members. Later, the union announced that the vote was delayed because many of its officers were tied up in litigation started by the airlines and because of Western’s position. Wednesday night, the Los An geles Times reported that the strikers had voted almost unani mously in a cross-country tele phone poll to reject Kennedy’s pro posal to call off the strike while the presidential board reviews the dispute. / An unidentified union spokes man told the Times that engineers who were polled said they intended to continue the walkout to try to convince the public of the justice of their cause. JFK Sees ‘Fruitful’ Talks With Nikita One factor influencing them, the spokesman said, was the dismissal of 130 Western engineers who failed to report for work.

By The Associated Press WASHINGTON—President Ken nedy is sending a personal message to Soviet Premier Khrushchev ex pressing hope that future talks between the two countries will be “fruitful.” Ambassador Llewellyn Thomp son' was instructed Wednesday to hand the message to the Soviet leader upon his return to Moscow. Thompson left Washington later in the day after two weeks of consultation with Kennedy and members of his administration. The diplomat has had four con ferences with the President since his arrival here Feb. 8. These meetings, the White House said, after the minal session, “will en able Ambassador Thompson to re turn to Moscow with a clear un derstanding of the President's views on the matters discussed for his use as guidance in con versations with Soviet officials.” Thompson went to the White House with Secretary of State Dean Rusk. In the statement is sued afterward, the White House said the envoy is ‘ taking “a per sonal message to Mr. Khrushchev expressing the President’s confi dence in Ambassador Thompson and the desire that any further conversations between Soviet offi cials and the ambassador will be fruitful and assist in bringing about better Soviet-American un derstanding.” Kennedy’s expression of confi dence in Thompson was under stood to mean a restatement of the President’s belief in methods of quiet diplomacy. The new ad ministration, officials said, is firmly convinced that the best way to explore new ways to bring about better Soviet-American- un derstanding is to talk with the Kremlin through normal diplo matic channels. This, however, does not rule out a meeting between Kennedy and' Khrushchev at a later stage, of ficials said, if the Soviet leader should insist on having one or if he chooses to come to the spring session of the United Nations Gen eral Assembly in New York. The President himself, at his latest news conference, said he “would make a judgment as to what could usefully be done once we knew what Mr. Khrushchev's plans were.” Kennedy’s message to Khrush- chev was understood to explain the new administration’s thinking on outstanding international is sues. Officials indicated Thomp son will not present anything new when he calls at the Kremlin, but will be in a position to give a first-hand account of the Presi dent’s philosophy on world prob lems.
