TROPIC RESEARCH TEAM
Pine and wife view wildlife speciments
A young husband and wife bio
logical research team has just re
turned to A&M packing enough
tropical wildlife specimens to start
a small museum.
Ronald and Doris Pine left Col
lege Station June 5 for a scientific
look-see deep in Mexico’s southern
states of Chiapas and Veracruz.
Ronald, who grew up at Law
rence, Kansas, is working on his
doctoral degree in the Department
of Wildlife Management. He did
undergraduate work at the Uni
versity of Kansas and received a
master of science degree at the
University of Michigan. Doris
comes from Sparta, Wis.
The couple visited Mexico’s
tropics mainly to study and col
lect bat specimens of the genus
Tadarida. This they did in fine
fashion, plus collecting a few
types that remain unidentified.
But they also brought back pre
served specimens of opossums,
skunks, rabbits, raccoons, snakes,
frogs, toads, salamanders, lizards,
foxes, wildcats, squirrels, mice,
something called a water ’possum
and a rare kind of rat.

The Pines were accompanied by
Craig S. Abbott of San Antonio,
an undergraduate in the Depart
ment of English.
THEIR TRIP, financed by a Na
tional Institute of Health grant,
took them into high, rocky areas
and low, tropical rain forests. One
of the regions, La Selva Lacan-
dona, has been only slightly ex
plored. Ordinary maps show it as
& t?i.g : blank space.
At one time, they penetrated so
far intdi the interior that the ex
pedition x-an short of supplies. The
native , guide and mule driver
balked and refused to go any fur
ther.
Doris managed hot meals on a
portable camp stove and helped
her husband collect and tag speci
mens. When the food supply ran
low, their diet consisted mostly of
rice and wheat cereal supplement
ed now and then by meat from
small wild animals. Di’inking wa
ter had to be chlorinated.
“Some of those meals,” they re
called, “were pretty hard to take.”
Another unpleasant experience
was the unceasing attacks by mos
quitoes and biting gnats, especial
ly after the Pines ran out of bug
spray. Almost as much time was
spent swatting and scratching as
collecting specimens of bats and
other wildlife.
Has this discouraged them from
making future scientific trips to
tropics? Not a bit. The couple is
planning similar expeditions to
Central America next summer and
to South America the following
summer.

Chemist Will Open
Graduate Lectures
DR. C. T. GREENWOOD
A well-known chemist from the
University of Edinburgh in Scot
land will lecture here Thursday.
Dr. C. T. Greenwood is to ap
pear under the auspices of the
Robert A. Welch Foundation of
Houston and will be the first grad
uate lecturer of the 1962-63 series,
Dean Wayne C. Hall of the Grad

Graduate Fellowships Offered
For College Teaching Careers
Inquiries about Danforth Grad
uate Fellowships for college teach
ing careers and worth up to $12,-
000 are invited, Dr. Wayne C. Hall,
Dean of Graduate Studies, announc
ed today.
The fellowships, offered by the
Danforth Foundation of St. Louis,
are open to male college seniors or
recent graduates preparing for a
career of teaching, counseling or
administrative work at the college
level. Applicants may be plan
ning to major in any field of
study common to the undergradu-
Graduate C. E.
Majors Double
The number of graduate stu
dents in civil engineering has
doubled here in the last four years,
reports Dr. S. R. Wright, depart
ment head.
He said the increased enroll
ment is the result of an expanded
graduate program.
Last year, 64 graduates were
enrolled in civil engineering.
Awarded were 36 advanced de
grees — 28 master, one profes
sional and seven doctorate.
Receiving doctorate degrees
were H. H. Bartel of Dallas, Ed
ward Grubbs of Houston, Noel J.
Eberhard of Arlington, Miguel
Santiago-Melendez of Puerto Rico
and E. P. Segner Jr., Donald E.
Cleveland and R. A. Jimenez, all

riculum, at the American graduate
school of his choice, but should
not have already undertaken grad
uate work.
Nominations for the 1963-64 pro
gram close Oct. 28.
Approximately 100 fellowships
will be awarded to outstanding
candidates nominated by liaison
officers of accredited colleges and
universities in the United States.
Nominees will be judged on in
tellectual promise and personality,
integrity, genuine interest in re
ligion and high potential for ef
fective college teaching.
Winners will be eligible for up
to four years of financial assist
ance, with an annual maximum of
$1,500 for single men and $2,000,
plus dependency allowances for
children for married men, plus
tuition and fees.
There are now 472 Danforth
Fellows in graduate study prepar
ing to teach, and 267 more already
teaching in some 150 colleges in
this nation and in 20 institutions
abroad. Danforth Fellowshps may
be held for life, with certain bene
fits after completion of graduate
study.
Students may hold a Danforth
Fellowship concurrently with other
appointments, such as Ford and the
National Science programs, Hall
said. Winners are Danforth Fel
lows without stipend until these
other awards lapse.
The Danforth Foundation, one of
the nation’s 10 largest educational
foundations, was founded in 1927
by the late William H. Danforth,
St. Louis businessman and phil
anthropist.
Greenwood, the author of some
50 technical and scholarly pub
lications, recently has been mak
ing studies of enzymic action in
starches.
The title of the lecture, sched
uled at 2 p.m. Thursday in Room
231 of the Chemistry Building,
has been announced as “Physico
chemical Studies on Enzyme Ac
tion: Some Starch-Degrading En
zymes.”
Greenwood was awarded a Bach
elor of Science degree with honors
by the University of Birmingham,
where he studied under Sir Nor
man Haworth. He later took a
doctorate at the same university.
The chemist first went to the
University of Edinburgh as an
Imperial Chemical Industries Re
search Fellow and was idter ap
pointed a lecturer in chemistry.
For 12 years he has been investi
gating aspects of the physical
chemistry of polysaccharides, and
in 1960 the University of Edin
burgh awarded him a Doctor of
Science degree for a thesis; on this
subject.
A&M Awarded
NSF Grant-|
A&M has received a $7;735 Na
tional Science Foundation grant
to conduct an Undergraduate Sci
ence Education Program.
Coleman Loyd, local co-ordinator
of NSF programs, said the funds
will go to the Texas Agricultural
Experiment Station for hse by 10
undergraduate soil science students.
He said, the NSF’s Undergradu
ate Science Education Program,
now in its fifth year, provides
special opportunities for, under
graduates of high ability to ad
vance through research participa
tion and independent study in their
understanding of science.
Supervising the research work of
the student is Dr. Morris Blood-
worth, professor of soil physics.
Bloodworth said three of the
students will conduct research dur
ing this academic year and seven
will work on their projects in the
summer of 1963 at the Weslaco
and Lubbock experiment substa
tions.
