His numerous technical articles in the field have done much to further the science. EDWIN S. HOLDREDOE Holdredge has been with the Department of Mechanical Engi neering since 1939, except for a period with the Tennessee East man Corporation at Oak Ridee from 1944 to 1946. He holds the Bachelor and Master of Science degrees from the Univer-sity of Tennessee. Holdredge introduced the con cept of fluid mechanics which is a required course in many engineer ing departments at A&M and at other colleges and universities; he is a proponent of the philosophy that all engineering should be taught and understood on the ba sis of fundamentals and he has designed and built a passive ana log computer which is used by graduate students as a means of solving complex problems in heat transfer and fluid mechanics. JOHN P. GERMAN German, a member of the elec trical engineering staff since 1958, is regarded by students and fellow teachers alike as a thorough and meticulous teacher who spares no effort in preparing and effectively presenting the subject matter of his courses. He has a variety of academic and professional experience. He has worked as an engineer with Dallas Power and Light Co., North American Aviation, Hughes Air craft Co. and Convair. He holds the Bachelor and Master of Sci ence and Doctor of Philosophy de grees from the University of Tex as. J. W. AMYX In addition to his outstanding work as a professor of petroleum engineering, Amyx has served sig nificantly in many student activi ties. He is noted among students for his helpful, but patient manner in advising on various problems. He is a member of the Memorial Student Center Council, faculty sponsor to the Petroleum Club, advisor to Tau Beta Pi Chapter and to H Company of the Second Brigade, and a member of the Engineer Magazine Advisory and Engineering Faculty Advisory committees. J. ROY QUINBY Sorghum genetics and breeding have been for many years the chie r interest of Quinby. His research in this area led to the use of male sterile techniques for the produc tion of hybrid sorghum seeds. This technique has produced several outstanding varieties which have saved as much as $45 million tc Texas farmers each year. The male sterile techniques has been widely adopted by commercial seed companies throughout the country. JACK H. LEWIS As county agricultural agent for Kaufman County since 1956, Lewis has provided creative leadership in implementing a total education al program, involving and benefit ing the rural and urban population of Kaufman County. He has successfully established demonstration programs on 50 farms in 12 communities of the county. He has been instrumental in reapportionment of more than 6,000 acres of unwanted cotton acreage, and has vitalized the county 4-H program to include 18 clubs with more than 50 organiza tion and subject-matter leaders, in addition to many other distin guished achievements. : te;' .

That’s what folks have been ask ing since the announcement that the Kingston Trio is breaking up. The news came with a terse “con flict of interests” explanation, which didn’t explain much. The split is puzzling not only because the Kingstons are one of the greatest successes in recent show business, but also because they have always displayed the greatest of affability onstage. The major issue appears to he this: Dave Guard, crew-cut leader of the trio, wants to aim toward bet ter music. Handsome Bob Shane and stubby Nick Reynolds, plus the trio’s bearded manager, Frank Werber, want to stick to the pop songs that made them famous. Speaking from his Palo Alto home, Guard said: “Our problem is a matter of ambition—where we want to go and how we get there. I want to make good music. The other two aren’t dedicated musi cians. I feel very strongly about this; otherwise I wouldn’t be turn ing away a huge guarantee.” Speaking for the other camp from his San Francisco office was manager Werber: “It’s a matter of selection of material. Dave feels his whole interest is music, and he is very scholarly about it. The other two are more happy-go- lucky. They’d rather do the simple songs. When we started out, the organization was fairly democratic. But it has gotten to the point of Dave forcing his will, so to speak.” James Saphier, the Kingston’s Hollywood mentor who first took them to Capitol Records, observed: “In every act, there has to be a take-charge guy. That has always been Dave. It is not unusual that the other two would develop a con flict with him. “But they have a long cooling- off period and I think they might patch it up.” Thursday,^May 25, 1961 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Page 3 Military Magazine Publishes Article Ey History Professor A short article entitled “Corporal Hesse’s Medal of Honor,” by Dr. Allan C. Ashcraft, assistant pro fessor of History, appears in the May, 1961, issue of Military Re view, a publication of the U. S. Army Command and General Staff College. After the surrender of the Fed eral forces at San Antonio under Maj. Gen.. David Twiggs in Febru ary of 1861, Corp. John C.
