Gaines Is Honorary Member
Of Pest Control Association
Dr. J. C. Gaines, head of the
Department of Entomology at
A&M, has been awarded an honor
ary membership in the Texas Pest
Control Association in recognition
of his individual and the College’s
assistance to the industry.
Presentation of the honorary
membership and plaque was made
by Jack Plummer of Galveston,
president of the state association,
during opening ceremonies of the
sixteenth annual Pest Control
Operators Short Course on the
A&M campus. The Department of
Entomology sponsors the short
course. A surprised Dr. Gaines
accepted the plaque, and in ex
pressing thanks stressed the role
of the Department of Entomology
faculty.
Mohr Resigns
To Take Post
At Kentucky
Dr. Hubert C. Mohr, associate
professor of horticulture in the
Department of Soil and Crop Sci
ences, will resign July 15 to become
head of the Department of Horti
culture, University of Kentucky,
at Lexington.
Since first employed by A&M
in 1946, Mohr has been connected
with the departments of biology,
plant physiology and pathology and
horticulture.
More than 130 persons from all
sections of Texas registered on
June 21, opening day of the two-
day short course. The registra
tion set a new attendance mark
for the short course.
The program for the 1962 short
course included several talks on
subjects of interest to operators
and employees of pest control
firms.
Gaines, a native Texan, joined
the A&M faculty in 1942 and has
served since World War II as a
professor. He was named head of
the department 10 years ago. &
Atomic Energy
Grant Received
A g-rant of $17,800 has been
made to the A&M chemistry de
partment by the U. S. Atomic
Energy Commission.
The grant will be used to eqiup
a radiochemistry laboratory for
teaching and research by Dr. Fred
Sicilio, associate professor of
chemistry.
The AEG also made a grant to
$10,505 to the department of bio
chemistry and nutrition and the
department of plant physiology
and pathology for more labora
tory equipment.

tioned. Another is that the tri
mester plaui leaves the student
less time foir summer employment.
Dean Price was quick to point
out, however, that a student could
withdraw from school and work a
full year, if necessary. Also stu
dent expenses in college will be
reduced by one year.
Greatest advantage to the new
approach will be more classroom
exposure in fewer calendar years.
Other advantages: One: The
public receives an additional year
of service from each student grad
uated without additional invest
ment on the part of either.
Two: The trimester plan pro
vides a means for increased stu
dent enrollment to alleviate an
expected national shortage of
trained veterinary personnel.
(Currently the school has a limit
ed enrollment of 64.)
GI Students
Due To Report
All students receiving benefits
under any G.I. Bills who will not
attend the second summer term are
requested to report to the Vet
eran’s Advisor before leaving the
campus.
Those who will attend both terms
will report to sign for July pay at
the end of the month.
Veterinary schools in the United
States produce approximately 1,-
000 graduates annually. A con
gressional study recently showed
the nation will need 47,000 veteri-
nai’ians by 1980, which is an addi
tional 31,000 and somewhat above
the present production rate.
Three: Clinical cases submitted
to the Veterinary Hospital during
the summer will be used in teach
ing and research by students.
Some of these cases are seasonal.
Four: The trimester plan will
give greater use of classroom and
laboratory facilities and teaching
equipment.
Five: Because of the reduced
number of years, more senior vet
erinary students will be attracted
to post-doctoral work and more
superior high school students will
probably be attracted to the pro
fessional curriculum.
Six: Additional time will be
provided for teachers to engage
in uninterruptable research.
