A meeting of all former mem bers of the Freshmen Drill team who have received their drill team ribbons is scheduled to be held in the Assembly Room of the Memo rial Student Center tomorrow at 8:30 p.m. The purpose of the meeting is to advance the organization of an association of former drill team members who would sponsor a proposed annual invitational drill team meet and provide a social organization for former freshman drill team members. Working with zoo animals is a “real specialty,” according to Banks, because the individual has to learn while doing. A zoo veteri narian has no real background for his type of work and must try to apply his basic veterinary train ing to problems that arise. Banks added that a zoo veteri narian’s main problem is not with diagnosis and treatment, but with restraint for treatment. The doc tor has to learn through experi ence how to control the animals for diagnosis and treatment, while at the same time protecting him self and the animal. According to Banks, Luguette has devised a unique “squeeze- chute cage” for lions and tigers, modeled after the type used for cattle and horses at A&M.
