A&M Research Group Helps
Solves Los Angeles Problem
The clay minei'al research group
of an A&M scientific research
group, headed by Dr. U. Grant
Whitehouse, is proving of great
value to the solution of sewage
disposal problems of Los Angeles,
Calif., according to Dr. C. G. Gun-
nerson, a civil engineer formerly
associated with the City of Los
Angeles and now with the Cali
fornia State Department of Water
Resources.

gard is reported in the Journal of
Hydraulics, American Society of
Civil Engineers. Gunnerson says.
“Whitehouse’s work will serve to
guide sanitary engineers who are
concerned with waste discharge
into marine waters.”
The clay research cited concerns
the settling and flocculation of sus
pended solids in sea waters and
has been extensively discussed in
a lengthy treatise by Whitehouse,
technical director of the College
Electron Microscopy Laboratories
and associates, entitled “Differen
tial Settling Tendencies of Clay
Minerals in Saline Waters,” pub
lished by Permagon Press, Inc.

Academic Bulletin Board
Offers Stupendous Bargains
With the semester’s, close near
at hand, the Academic Building
bulletin board is daily theming
with stupendous offers made at
“slashed prices,” “with YOUR
welfare in mind,” and definitely
with the bulletin posters’ included.
Items advertised on,- the board
ranged from fenderskirts to flow
ers, parachutes to Packards, rings
to raccoon coats, and many other
bargains with large general pub
lic appeal.
A broken romance prompted this
offer: “Have been flushed! One-
fourth karat diamond ring ap
praisal $198.50. Need money, take
look, make offer!”
In the lost and found depart
ment, the following message ap
peared: “Lost: ohe tan trench
coat, plain lining; Found: one tan
trench coat, Plaid lining. Wanted?
A trade. Reason ? I like mine bet
ter. Explanation? We made trade
accidentally in the Memorial Stu
dent Center.”
Another “lost and found” item
reads, “Lost: one grey car coat,”
and added to it is, “with raccoon
tail.”
Cars and accessories aren’t the
largest thing offered on the board
this week; there is also an air
plane front Khnsas for sale, al
though the usual number of “hot”
bargains on cars prevail.
One of the car advertisements
reads, “For Sale: 1953 DeSoto.
Added to it was another message:
“This is a 1953 model, and it looks
like DeSoto, himself!”
Besides regular, ordinary run-
of-the-mill items, this week a para
chute and accessories are offered.
The ad reads, “Complete Sky Div
ing Outfit, 28-foot back and chest
packs; sleeve, stopwatch, helmet,
inverted T modification in main
canopy.”
And someone must have a horti
culture assignment due; his ad
reads, “Wanted: Need a flower
collection and if you have a col
lection of any kind, please leave
your name and address. Would
be willing to pay for it.”
PROPOSED DRAG STRIP
(Continued from Page 1)
before a review board. Any mem
ber receiving two moving traffic
violations in a period of six
months would be suspended from
all club privileges for a period of
not less than three months.
Luther said he would like to see
that portion of the constitution
strengthened.
“Make one violation cause for
suspension,” he said.
Sheriff J. W. Hamilton said the
only logical place for a drag strip
would be the old Bryan Air Force
Base.
“The whole idea has its advan
tages and its disadvantages,” he
said. “I’m not in favor of drag
ging as such, but I’m going to wait
and see before I make any commit
ment.”
ELECTION
(Continued from Page 1)
Roy Russel Huddleston, George E.
Reese, Lewis Zaeske, Jr., Richard
B. Lockwood and Thomas Hollis
Meadows.
Hamilton also wanted the con-
stitution strengthened especially
in parts dealing with the compo
sition of the review board to over
see association discipline.
As it is tentatively set up, the
review board is composed of mem
bers only.
The sheriff was doubtful that a
drag strip would cut down on
street racing.
“This will just promote more
impromptu drags,” he said. “When
ever club members meet they’ll
want to race.”
