WASHINGTON <A>) _ One of
hefcrooms in the Senate Office
uilding suite of Sen. John Tow-
1‘, R-Tex., looks like an art gal-
6ry.
The room contains a number of
aintings, one an abstract in blue
hat looks like a picture of a field
f Texas bluebonnets out of focus,
til of the collection was- painted
y faculty members of the Univer
sity of Texas art department.
The fact that they are there is
ue to the enterprise of Miss
i^endy O’Brien, a Tower employee
nd daughter of Tim O’Brien, an
marillo rancher.
I^g A 1960 Smith College graduate,
g fiefliss O’Brien knew that artists
—-ometimes displayed their works in
jublic buildings in Texas. She
III
orks, attractive though it might
e with the usual government-fur-
y ished pictures, could be improved
jetta
upon.
So. With Tower’s approval, she
corresponded with art galleries in
Dallas and Austin. She was refer
red to Chairman Donald B. Goodall
of the U. of T. art department.
Upshot was the recent arrival of
several huge crates bearing the
paintings done by the faculty
members. The paintings are ex
pected to be on display for several
months — unless someone wants
to buy one or all. They’re for sale,
ranging from $200 to $850.
Michael Frary, an assistant pro
fessor at the university who helped
round up the exhibit, painted one
of the pictures — a view of Notre
Dame Cathedral in Paris where
Frary studied in 1949 and 1950.
Lending a realistic Texas touch
is a painting of a huge oil re
finery entitled “Cat Cracker.” It
is the woi’k of Ralph White who
teaches commercial art.

Ag Extension
Economist
Wins Honor
A Texas home economist, Mrs.
Florence W. Low of College Sta
tion, has been named president
of the American Home Economics
Association.
Mrs. Low succeeds Dr. Dorothy
S. Lyle of Silver Spring, Md., and
will serve through 1964.
The new president is assistant di
rector for home economics with the
Texas Agricultural Extension Serv
ice. Mrs. Low helps direct the pro
gram development and home econ
omics teaching projects of more
than 300 home demonstration a-
gents, assistants and subject mat
ter specialists on the Extension
Service headquarters staff.
In her acceptance address, Mrs.
Low discussed “Challenges—Pre
sent and Future,” keyed to the
general convention theme: Home
Economics in a Changing World—
Raising Our Professional Sights.
“The program of this convention
recognizes the fact that the revolu
tionary impact of scientific deve
lopment upon our way of life is
causing a growing gap between
this new scientific world and our
traditional culture. There is an ur
gent need for home economics to
relate itself to the many changes
which are occuring in home and
family living if we are to bridge
this gap. There is much to be done
in order for us to make the great
est accomplishments,” Mrs. Low
said.
In order to meet today’s chal
lenges, the American Home Econ
omics Association has adopted a
plan of work, increased dues and
adopted a budget. Other areas of
special concern of the association,
Mrs. Low said, are strengthening
home economics at all levels, re
cruiting top members, the inter
national aspects of the program,
and improved methods of inter
preting home economics, to groups
and individuals.
Mrs. Low asked that all states
give careful consideration to the
association program of work for
1962-64 and use it as a guide for
determining specific goals related
to the major areas of concern in
the state and nation. The organi
zation has 28,000 members.
Gen. Murray started his career
in the Corps when he accepted
a commission as a second lieutenant
upon graduation from Texas A&M.
A member of the “Old Corps,” as
the rugged members of the “new”
Marine Corps are termed, Gen.
Murray served as a model for the
ficitious commanding officer of
the 2nd Battalion Sixth Marine
Regiment in the famous WW II
novel, “Battlecry” by Leon Uris.
Gen. Murray’s nickname in those
days, as the nickname of the
novel’s hero was, “Highpockets.”
Gen. Murray commanded the
unit, serving as a platoon leader,
company commander, battalion ex
ecutive officer and finally as the
Commanding Officer during the
great war. He was awarded his
first silver star with the Regi
ment on Guadalcanal and his sec
ond such award on Tarawa.
Still serving as commanding of
ficer of the 2/6, Gen. Murray won
a Naval Cross on Saipan, awarded
for his heroism in remaining at
his post, although seriously wound
ed, and continuing to direct his
battalion during the initial as
sault.
As a Lt. Colonel, Murray land
ed the 5th Marines at Pusan as
the Commanding Officer in the
Korean War, and won his third
and fourth silver star while com
manding the unit. For his out
standing combat record during the
December “Break-Out” of the Divi
sion, he received his 2nd Naval
Cross and the Army Distinguish
ed Service Cross.
Again, fiction writers picked up
pens and using the Marine Corps
in general and the spirit of the
5th Marines in particular, penned
another motion picture. “Retreat
Hell” told the story of the break
out of the Division from North
Korea. Again, as Commanding Of
ficer, he had the starring role. !
During his career as a Mainne
officer, Gen. Murray has seen duty
in such famous outpost as Shang
hai, with the 2nd Brigade, and the
famed Marine Detachment, Ameri
can . Embassy, Peiping, prior to
WW II.
He left Marine Corps Base, Camp
Pendleton, June 15, where he had
“Sports Car Center”
Dealers for
Renault-Peugeot
&
British Motor Cars
Sales—Parts—Service
‘We Service All Foreign Cars”;
J1416 Texas Ave. TA 2-4517:
served as Deputy Base Command
er and later as the Commanding
General. His new duty station will
be Marine Corps Base, Parris Is
land.
