In his original plans expressed

Cost Of Marriage-
Witness, Missiles
Must Be Tolerated
HOUSTON, Tex. UP>—Into each
married life a little rain must fall,
the First Texas Court of Appeals
ruled Thursday.
The court reversed a divorce
decree granted by a lower court
to Bert L. Schyrock of Kountze,
Tex. He had alleged mental cruel
ty, charging his wife with pouring
beer over his head, flinging ash
trays and, on one occasion, throw
ing his shaving kit at him.
Such acts, the court said, should
be considered a consequence of
married life.
Grants Used
For Nuclear
Lab Facilities
By JIM HAMILTON
Battalion Staff Writer
An $18,000 Atomic Energy Com
mission grant was recently given
to the Department of Nuclear En
gineering to purchase new labora
tory equipment.
This grant, when combined with
$8,000 in state funds given to the
department, has made possible ex
tensive new facilities to aid in the
teaching of nuclear science
courses, especially the industrial
applications of radioisotopes
course (Nuclear Engineering 402
—offered in spring semester
only).
The main benefit from the
grants so far has been a Radio
isotope Detection Laboratory in
the Engineering Building. This
lab will be used for training and
research in the application and
utilization of radioisotopes in in
dustry and agriculture.
In Texas, the main industry to
benefit from such studies will be
the petroleum industry. Research
will also be conducted which could
benefit the auto industry, such as
auto wax wear studies and engine
wear studies.
Almost any type of research
and study involving wear on
something can be conducted in
this laboratory with the aid. of
radioisotopes.
The new laboratory will also be
used for graduate research and
instruction, and for summer in
stitutes and short courses.
John D. Randall, assistant pro
fessor of Nuclear Engineering,
said:
“Now that we have this new
equipment, it will be possible to
incorporate laboratory demonstra
tions in our industrial applications
of radioisotopes course.”
“Since most of the techniques
and methods presented in this
course are novel to the students,
the use of demonstrations and ex
periments will enhance our teach
ing effectiveness,” Randall added.

The holdup man stuck $81,699

Six hours later the holdup man
was nabbed near Anahuac at a
roadblock.
In the meantime, he had cap

who had stopped Carter and
sought to arrest him. The cap

was released in Beaumont.
Carter, 36, of Houston, was cap

after Chambers County Sheriff

Landers, recognized the car and

Demo Chairman
Resigns To Join
Republican Party
MARSHALL (^)—The chairman
of the Harrison County Democrat
ic executive committee resigned
Thursday and said he would join
the Republican Party.
Dr. John R. Cullum called the
committee together to resign.
“I feel that conservatives of
Texas can accomplish more for the
cause of a return to true consti
tutional government through the
Republican Party than as a mi
nority element in the Democratic
Party,” he said.
At the same meeting, Isaac Sat-
terwhite, a veteran precinct chair
man, was appointed county chair
man.
MURPHY
(Continued From Page 1)
ment program conducted in Texas
for the past three years, Campbell
Soup Company has been engaged in
research experiments on tomatoes
and carrots in Texas since 1954,
assisted by members of the staff
of A&M College and, in genetic
research, also assisted by the Ear-
hart Laboratories at Caltech, he
added.
Pointing out that agricultural re
search has played an important
part in the decision of Campbell
Soup Company to build a plant in
Texas, Murphy said, ‘A business
such as ours requires a long per
iod of agricultural experimenta
tion to be certain that a substant
ial portion of the large volume of
food ingredients needed for our
products can be grown successfully
in the nearby area.”
Speaking of the challenges fac
ing agricultural research scient
ists today, Murphy said, “Things
cannot stand as they are when so
much remains to be done, not only
for reasons of food supply but
just as important, because the food
industry of North America must
keep itself competitive in the world
markets.”
Toward this end, he cited the
contributions to agricultural re
search by food processors, point
ing out in considerable detail how
research in a number of specific
crops had improved both quality
and yield. He said also that this
research benefits not only the pro
cessor but the grower and ulti
mately the consumer.
“To keep his .business moving a-
head, the enlightened processor
finds it necessary to take every
practical step to maintain and im
prove the values he offers the con
sumers.
tice of the Peace B. F. Beard with
armed bank robbery. He waived
examining trial and was held when
he could not make $50,000 bond.
The FBI filed in the U.S. Dis
trict Court at Tyler charges of
bank robbery and kidnaping under
the Federal Bank Robbery Act
against Carter.
The charges alleged that in ad
dition to robbing the bank Carter
kidnaped Texas Ranger Tully Seay
as a hostage.
Asst. U.S. Atty. Leyton Cornett
said conviction on the combined
federal charges carries a mini
mum sentence of 10 years in
prison and a maximum penalty
of death if the jury ,so requests.
Conviction on the state charge
carries a sentence of from 5 years
to life in prison.
Carter was taken from Anahuac
to Nacogdoches, the county seat
of the county where the robbery
took place, in the early morning
hours.
He was questioned by state,
federal and local officers during
the day.
