unique college campus will
op»>n June 3 on the outskirts of
Junction in Southwest Texas.
Hlhe program at the A&M Ad
junct centers around classes in
English, mathematics and physical
■ucation for freshmen. Students
have the advantage of a camp
atmosphere, and there are intra
mural sports, fishing, swimming
aid boating in the Llano River.
■ But many students do not have
time to fully appreciate the beau
ties of the Hill Country. Studies
keep them busy. The Adjunct is
the kind of place where a professor
wee complained that the chirping
of crickets interfered with his
work.
■ “BASIC GOAL of the program
■ bridging the gap between high
I Bchool and college,” S. A. Kerley,
fii "Ctor of the Counseling a”'!
Testing Center, said. He also is
Responsible for the Adjunct pro
gram.
B“We try to make it popular to
learn to study,” added W. D. Ku-
taeh, director of the Adjunct. He
has been at the Adjunct each sum-
(jkcept two since the program
opened in 1951. He became direc
tor in 1959.
I An intensive study of the grades
of Adjunct freshmen and those on
lid main campus for the first six
Weeks of the 1.962 long session
Showed Adjunct students achieved
fig’nificantly more, Kutach noted.
■ ORIGINALLY THE Adjunct
llaced emphasis upon remedial
Bourses, but this is no longer true.
Mathematics 121, analytic geome-
and calculus, for example, was
[ first taught at the Adjunct.
In 1963 the Adjunct will enlarge
■acilities by construction of a elass-
loom building. This will ease to
ome degree a tight space situation.
Enrollment is planned for 170
freshmen this year instead of 120
as in the past. . About 60 advanced
students are also at the Adjunct
each summer for field courses in
geology and civil engineering.
APPLICANTS FOR the Adjunct
are taken on a first come basis aft
er being admitted as regular stu
dents at A&M. Enrollment has hit
capacity in recent years with all
spaces filled weeks before the first
term starts.
Teachers at the Adjunct are
regular members of the A&M facul
ty.
“I think it’s an ideal teaching
situation because the students work
closer with the instructor than in
any other college situation,” Dr.
Lee M. Martin of the Department
of English faculty, said.

African Students
Battle In Bulgaria:
VIENNA, Austria 6P)—The dis
content of African students behind
the Iron Curtain erupted into a
street battle with Communist po
lice in Sofia, Bulgaria, informed

State Educational Drama Group
Plans Intercollegiate Festival
The Texas Educational Theater
Association will stage a festival
in 1964 as a showcase for dramatic
productions from various campuses,
Association President C. K. Esten
has announced. He is a member
of the English faculty and director
of the Aggie Players.
“We want to begin relatively
small and build the drama festival
into a big thing,” Esten said.
The association members began
plans for the festival during their
annual meeting here recently.
Jim Bains of McMurry College
will serve as chairman of the drama
festival committee, seven other
committeemen are to be named.
The committee will begin detailed
plans for the festival.
More than 50 persons fi’om cam
puses throughout Texas attended
the meeting here. Dr. Katharine
Boyd of Sul Ross State College
was elected to be a two-year term
as secretary. The association will
meet next Feb. 7-8 on the Texas
Lutheran College campus.
It is known, for example, that
more than 100 African students in
Moscow have applied at the U.S.
Embassy for help in transferring
to American schools.
They give the same reason—
disillusion with the life under com
munism as compared with the
promises made to them before they
left Africa.
This appeared to be the basic
cause of the riot in which com
petent authorities here said 200
African students battled Commu
nist police. Scores of the youths
were reported injured by club-
wielding - militia.
The fight broke out in Sofia’s
main street, the Lenin Boulevard.
Carrying luggage, the students
stopped traffic for 15 minutes and
then fought police.
The police finally forced the
students into buses and hauled
them off, presumably to jail, in
formants said.
The students have been trying
to establish a union for the past
year to assist them in their com
plaints, which include poor hous
ing, poor food, crowded facilities,
political indoctidnation at the ex
pense of their studies, and diffi
culties with the Russian language.
