The Department of Education
nd Psychology has completed
reparations for a curriculum in
sychology as a full four-year ma-
or with a bachelor of science de-
ree, according to Dr. Walter A.
tovel of the department.
Emphasizing studies in the var-
ous sciences, the degree plan is
asically the same as that for
todies in preparatory medicine for
lie first two years, said Varvel.
Courses taken during this period
u (iclude chemistry, biology, mathe-
natics, physics, English, history,
conomics and two psychology
ourses.
“This provides many students
tarting out majoring in prepara-
ory medicine or a related field
fith an opportunity to change ma-
ors to psychology after two years
f study with virtually no loss of
lours,” said Varvel.
In the. junior year, the psychol-
igy major will pursue studies in
he social sciences, including cour-
les in sociology, economics of la-
ior, and differential psychology,
'he latter course is new, to be of-
ered for the first time next se-
jiester, and will be concerned pri
marily with individual differences.
Other courses included during
he junior year are educational sta-
istics, social institutions and pro
cesses, and a second newly devel
oped course, psychology of learn-
ng.
In his senior year, the student i
of psychology will take courses in
sociology, psychology, and an in
dustrial engineering course in mo- j
tion and time study. This is fol
lowed by a third new psychology
course, experimental psychology.
This new course is concerned
with perception, sensation and re
action, and requires more lab
equipment than normal courses in
the department. Special color
blending devices are to be employ
ed, with students needing a large
amount of room in which to work.
“The curriculum holds many ad
vantages, demanding no definite
professional ■■•eommitance on the
part of the student,” said Dr. Var
vel.
“With such training, a graduate
is prepared to enter fields of phys
ical, social or combined sciences,
and fields are virtually unlimited.
For example, a graduate might
enter graduate school and obtain
a master’s degree in business ad
ministration; then, again he might
enter the armed service as a ca
reer officer.”
“A person’s education determ
ines what training opportunities
he will receive after entering pro
fessional life, which is where the
real training begins. With such
a degree plan, we hope to equip
the psychology major with a back
ground suitable for a varience of

Junior Wins
Color TV Set
Charlie W. Moore, junior elec
trical engineering major from Dal
las and secretary-treasurer of the
class of ’62, has given up study
ing.
For the next few weeks, any
way, Moore says he’s just gonna’
sit around and admire his new 21-
inch color television set.
Moore won the set in a contest
sponsored by the P. Lorillard To
bacco Co. His name, written on
the back of a cigarette package,
was drawn at an intermission dur
ing the Cotton Ball last Friday
night. However, Moore said he
didn’t know he had won until a
friend told him Saturday after
noon.'
“I didn’t believe it at first,”
Moore said. “It took several peo
ple to convince me.”
OUTSTANDING PIONEER . . .
Architects Now Exhibiting
Work Of Richard Neutra
The Division of Architecture is
now exhibiting examples of the
work of Richard Neutra. This
exhibit is being held on the fourth
floor of the Academic Building and
will last until Sunday, Apr. 30.
One of the pioneers of modern
architecture, Richard Neutra, is
the subject of a comprehensive ex
hibition organized by the Art Gal
leries at the University of Cali
fornia, Los Angeles. Over 200 of
his most significant works are pre
sented in blown-up photographs
mounted on aluminum panels,
while his drawings of travel
sketches are shown simultaneously.
His philosophy, dealt with in a
48-page book prepared by Freder
ick S. Wight, Director of the Art
Galleries, UCLA, is an accompani
ment to this exhibition.
This presentation was specially
built to travel, by the Art Galler
ies’ designer of exhibitions, Jack
Carter, The aluminum panels are
mounted on stands to make a
three-dimensional display, so that
the exhibition pattern can be main
tained through the course of an
extensive circuit that has been or
ganized. Following its presenta
tion at UCLA, the exhibition was
seen widely in California, at the
Santa Barbara Museum of Art,
the Fine Arts Gallery of San
Diego, and the San Francisco Mu
seum of Art, before it came to
A&M.
Neutra came to the United
States from Austria in 1923,
paused in Chicago, and then came
to Los Angeles. Like other pioneer
modern architects, of whom he is
the youngest, he began extensive
plans for modern, slum-free cities
(plans which he is realizing on a
city-wide scale in Venezuela at
the present time).
His revolutionary houses soon
made him famous. The Health
House in Griffith Park, begun in
1927, was unique in America at
the time. Called the floating house,
it hangs on a vertical hill side, and
was built of a steel cage cage and
concrete shot from the only con
crete gun in California at the time.
From then on, his homes helped
to set the pattern of the future.
They range from such luxury
houses as the Warren Tremaine
residence in Santa Barbara to the
famous Desert House in Palm
Springs, to many modest homes
which package the essentials of
good living at minimal cost.
His pioneer schools, Corona Bell
School, Emerson Junior High, Fes
ter Avenue, Los Alamitos in Gar
den Grove, Orange Coast College
and lately the extension of the
University Elementary School have
made him famous as a creator of
indoor-outdoor settings for educa
tion.

CAMPUS
CLEANERS
Is your future up in the air?
As the communications needs of our nation
become steadily greater and more complex,
the Bell Telephone System is continuing its
pioneer work in microwave by “taking to the
air” more and more to get the word across.
To this end, Western Electric—the manu
facturing arm of the Bell System—has the
monumental task of producing a large part of
the microwave transmission equipment that
knits our country together by shrinking thou
sands of miles into mere seconds.
In spite of its great technological strides,
the science of radio relay is a rapidly-changing
one. And new break-throughs and advances
are common occurrences. A case in point: our
Bell System “TH” Microwave Radio Relay.
This newest development in long-distance
telephone transmission will eventually triple
the present message-carrying capacity of exist
ing long-haul radio relay installations. A full-
scale system of 6 working and 2 protection
channels can handle 11,000 telephone mes
sages at the same time.
To make microwave work takes a host of
special equipment and components: relay
towers, antennae, waveguides, traveling wave-
tubes, transistors, etc. But just as important.
it takes top-caliber people to help us broaden
our horizons into such exciting new areas as
communication by satellites!
And microwave is only part of Western
Electric’s opportunity story. We have—right
now—hundreds of challenging and rewarding
positions in virtually all areas of telephony,
as well as in development and building of
defense communications and missile guidance
systems for the Government.
So, if your future is “up in the air,” you owe
it to your career to see “what’s up” for you at
Western Electric.
Opportunities exist for electrical, mechanical, indus
trial, civil and chemical engineers, as well as physical
science, liberal arts, and business majors. For more
information, get your copy of "Western Electric and
Your Career" from your Placement Officer. Or write

pany, 195 Broadway, New York 7, N. Y. And be sure
to arrange for a Western Electric interview when the
Bell System recruiting team visits your campus.
