Employment,
Loan Service
Both Available
Students who are worried about
colleges expenses or extra cash
should consider the possibility of
working at a part-time job.
Many an Aggie has worked or
is working his way through A&M.
The Office of Student Labor and
Loans has jobs to fit every need.
The executive type jobs consist
of greasing cars, mowing lawns,
or trimming hedges. The clerical
jobs that are available consist of
washing dishes in chemistry labs,
waiting on tables at the MSC, or
working in one of the mess halls.
The pay for most part-time jobs
is commensurate with your ability
as long as your ability is cdm-
mensurate with the pay; however,
it usually runs 75 cents an hour
and up. Assignments to part time
jobs are based on the student’s
need and sincex-ity of purpose.
Students who need part-time em
ployment should file application
with the student labor office. The
type of job desired and the hours
that are free in your class sched
ule should be noted on the applica
tion. Students are expected to
maintain good scholastic standing
to remain eligible for employment.
The Office of Student Labor and
Loans also maintains a sizeable
number of short-term, small loan
funds. The Association of Former
Students administers a series of
loan funds which are available to
any student who has been at A&M
at least three semesters, and whose
record in conduct and scholarship
is satisfactory. The amount of
the loan depends on the student’s
need. There are other loan funds
which are available to all students
also. Students needirtg extra cash
can get information about such
loans at the labor and loans office.
Be well groomed
for success
That “like new” look we give
your clothes is sure to make the
right impressions whether
you’re on the job or on the
town.

CLEANERS
“Boards Replacing Glass”

throwing glass inside and outside the store.
TRAIN PICTURE 60 YEARS OLD
Youth’s Camera Interest
Produce Railroad Picture
DENISON, Tex. (Spl)—That
picture of a train, its brilliant
headlight beaming, is on the wall
of the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Hos
pital here because Montgomery
Middleton got interested in cam
eras 60-odd years ago.
Middleton, better known as Gum,
was living in Waxahachie, where
his father published a weekly pa
per, when he decided he wanted
a camera. That was in about 1000
and Gum was 12.
Gum decided to bypass all the
dealers and write to the people
who made the product. That’s
how Eastman Kodak got this let
ter:
“Gentlemen, I am the son of a
Nance To Head
Faculty-Staff
Club Committee
Dr. Joseph M. Nance will head
the A&M Faculty-Staff Dinner
Club committee for 1961-62.
He is also head of the Depart
ment of History and Government.
He will-be assisted by Willard P.
Worley, co-chairman, and Dr. A. G.
Caldwell, treasurer.
The group’s first dinner-dance
of the year will be held at 7:30
p.m. Sept. 28 in the Memorial
Student Center ballroom.
Other membei’s of the committee
are Mrs. Garland E. Bayliss, Dr.
IT. R. Crookshank, Prof. W. E.
Eckles, Prof. K. E. Elmquist, Mrs.
Anne Keel, Mrs. Russell Kohel,
Mrs. Charles Richardson, Dr. L. R.
Richardson, ' Maj. Benjamin F.
Smith and Don Young.
“We are looking forward to an
other successful club year,” Nance
said.
man who prints the weekly Waxa
hachie Mirror and I, work in the
print shop. I am interested in
making pictures but as you know it
is hard to buy a camera unless you
have money. I will tell you what
I will do, though, 1 will run some
advertising for your firm in the
Mirror if you will send me a cam
era. Your truly, Montgomery
Middleton.”
Shortly, a big camera with all
the accessories arrived. With it
a long advertising contract from
Eastman.
Since that day, Gum Middleton
has been devoted to the blending
of graphic and photographic arts.
One of his earliest and best pic
tures was of that train, usually
driven by the late Eugene Hoskins,
who was known as the “Whistle
Artist v all along ,the Katy line
through Waxahachie, Denison and
to St. Louis.
Agriculture Dean
Patterson Attends
NSF Conference
Dr. R. E. Patterson, dean of the
School of Agriculture, is in Wash
ington, D. C., this week attending
a National Science Foundation con
ference.
Patterson is one of 30 admin
istrators and scientists selected
from major U.S. colleges and uni
versities to talk with NSF during
the final stages of development of
the new programs.
The dean and other conference
members will discuss new NSF
programs of support for science
instructional equipment included
in the foundation’s 1962 budget.
One day Gum shot some pictures
of the old Katy Flyer rounding
the bend. In his workshop he
made a fancy frame for the en
largement, and designed a little
light for the headlight.
Railroaders, especially those who
worked for the Katy, fell for the
picture. That’s how it got to the
rairoad hospital.
But Gum for good measure made
a replica for his own desk.
Middleton is now a member of
the brother team that operates the
Middleton Printing Co. Gum and
his brother, Marcellus, have won
national awards for the excellence
of their products.
Engineering Safety
Course Number
Changed To ‘409’
The Department of Nuclear En
gineering has announced that the
course listed in the present college
bulletin as Nuclear Engineering
609, “Radiological Safety,” will be
offered this semester as Nuclear
Engineering 409.
This course is still approved for
graduate credit but has reportedly
undergone some simplification to
make it available to a larger
group of students.
The course consists of lectures
and demonstrations concerning
the interaction of radiations with
matter and especially with biologi
cal systems. Special emphasis is
given the theory and practice of
radiation detection and shielding
as applied to radiation protection.
> The biological and physical basis
for radiation safety standards are
also discussed.
