Thux-sday, May 10, 1962 THE BATTALION Architect’s Dream Summer About To Become Reality Texas Ajrtfitis ai'e famed fox" in genuity, but Noe Marmolejo’s plans and ei'foi'ts towai'd spending this summer in Brazil still put him in an honoi’ed niche. Marmolejo, who is 21 years of age and in his junior year of ai’chi- tectural studies, has every hope of spending the summer studying and visiting some of the modern world’s major architectural and urban design projects, those of Brazil. He is especially interested in spending some time in Bi'asilia, which has been created to serve as capitol of the great South Ameri- can nation. Ingenuity in raising funds — he still n^eds a relatively small amount — to finance a summer of COLLEGE MASTER VI 6-4988 study and travel in Bx-azil has been exhibited by Marmolejo. The son of Mr. and Mrs. Raul M. Marmolejo, who reside at Canales 816 in Matamoros, across the Rio Grande from Brownsville, Marmolejo is at tending A&M with a Clayton Scholarship. The elder Marmo lejo is a retired employee of Anderson, Clayton and Co. The youth says he always had wanted to visit Brazil, but it was only in March that he launched “Brazil, An Architectural Summer Project.” His first step was to pre pare an attractive booklet outlin ing his aspirations. The second step was distribution of the book let and otherwise seeking funds fox- making the trip. His first break came when Clay ton Fund Trustees granted him funds for air passage to and from Bx-azil, plus 15 per cent of this to tal for miscellaneous expenses. He said the airline ticket will cost ixp- proximately $900. The grant was based upon the student securing funds elsewhere to cover the costs of staying and studying in Bx-azil. A Brazilian consular official has told Marmolejo he should plan on having $600 to $700 for expenses for a 10-weeks visit. He also is concerned about having enough clothing of the proper type. Ax-chi- tectural students in Bx-azil dress more formally than xxxost Amexi- can students. Marmolejo has secured a $.‘100 loan from the Former Students Association and now has a num ber of letters out in the mail. He naturally hopes for favorable replies.
