Student Studies 4 Abyssinica Seed’ Top 4-H Worker To Become State’s Assistant Leader Miss Margie Sellers, forxxxer Cooke County 4-H member and home demonstx-ation agent in Fan nin County, will become assistant state 4-H leader on the headquar ters staff of the Texas Agricul tural Extension Service Friday. She x-eplaces Mrs. Joe Hollings- wox-th, who recently resigned. In xnaking the annouixcement Extensioxx Director John E. Hutch ison said Miss Sellers made an outstanding x-ecox-d in Fannin County and in 1961 was awax-ded one of seven National 4-H Fellow ships for advanced study in the U. S. Department of Agriculture’s Graduate School and the Univex-- sity of Max-yland. She has com pleted wox-k at the university for an M. S. degree in education. She was a 4-H member for 10 years in Cooke couxxty and holds one of the State’s top records for achievement and leadership. The new staff member was first employed as a junior assistant ex tension agent in Collin County during the summer of 1957. She was appoixxted home demonstra tion agent for Fannin County on June 1, 1958, where she .served un til September 1961, when she was granted study leave. A graduate student is taking a close look at a little known plant in hopes that its seed will make a valuable new px-otein source for poultry feeds. There also is a possibility that oil from the seed will be of use to industry. The student is Bob Hesketh of Preston, Lancashix-e, England, who is working on a Master of Science degx-ee in poultx-y nutx-ition. The plant is Crambe abyssinca, a member of the crucifer family and kinfolk to such well known staples as cabbage and brussel sprouts. Hesketh has found that there is something special about abyssinica seed meal. First, it packs a big protein con tent of 40 to 45 per cent, a range which puts it up there with es tablished protein stars like cot tonseed meal and soybean meal. Second, the meal boasts a good balance of essential amino acids, so important in modern poultry feeds. It is Hesketh’s job to conduct extensive poultry feeding- tests with the meal to determine if the ma terial is satisfactory in every res pect aside from the favorable pro- teixx arifgle. DR. CARL LYMAN, head of the Department of Biochemistry and Nutrition, and Dr. J. R. Couch of the Department of Poultry Science, are supervising Hasketh’s work. Dow Chemical Official Urges Ag Students To ‘Get In’ A Dow Chemical Co. official has urged agriculture students to take a long look at opportunities in the field of agricultural chemicals. Hillard Smith, assistant manager of bioproduct sales at Dow in Hous ton, told Freshman Agricultural Society members Tuesday night that a big future lies ahead in a chemical sales career. Dow and many other chemical companies are interested in agri- cultux-e graduates, he said. Com- paxxies are expanding, more prod ucts are being developed and sales men ax-e xxeeded to move those products. He said that in 1939, national pesticide sales, for example, amounted to $40 million at the manufactux*ers level. In 1962, the figure had jumped to $326 million. By 1975, sales are expected to hit $1 billion. Sales of feed additives, Smith said, anxouxxted to about $240 mil lion last yeax-, and ax*e expected to reach the $1 billion mark by 1975. “There is great opportunity here,” he said. “Get into it as sooix as possible.” Smith advised the freshmen to take business and economics courses in addition to agriculture subjects. THE BATTALION Wednesday, Febxuxary 27, 1963 College Station, Texas Page 3 Grant Awarded For Research In Dog Disease Dr. C. H. Bridges, Department of Veterinary Pathology, has been awarded a grant of $180,000 by the National Institutes of Health to continue his studies on hip dys- placia in the cfbg. Begun in 1959, the research px-oject will be continued for four more years because of the grant. Bridges and his five-man team will study the metabolism, genetics and mox-phology of the bones in trying to cux-b this disease. Besides Bx-idges, team members are Dx\ William C. Banks, Dr. James B. Henson, Dr. Kenneth R. Pierce and Dx\ N. A. McNeil. One member of the group has not been named. 'Hip dysplacia is a crippling dis ease in which the hip joint fails to function properly. Bridges has es tablished “the role of gexxetics in the development of this defect.” Beginning his wox-k with four dogs, Bridges and his group have established a 165-member dog col ony. Only German Shepherds and American Fox Hounds ax*e being- used in the test. Bridges said the group hopes to develop a-strain. Of dogs as coxxx- p^Jy. ipxpxqne, tq |he dis^e as breeding will allow. ‘Photo Rugs’ Given Invite To Workshop Students and faculty membex-s interested in photography can take part in the photo workshop round table discussion at 4:45 p.m. Fx-iday in the assembly room on the second floor of the Memox-ial Student Center.

Other members of the round table panel will be Ralph Morgan of Eastman Kodak, John Farnham of Ansco, Bob Coffman of Dupont, Jack Ely of Graf lex, Inc. and Bob Dickens of Bux-leigh-Bx-ooks. Harry Ritter, director of the photo woi’kshop, in issuing the in vitation to students, said: ' “This is a good chance for both students and faculty menxbex*s to learn more about photography and to have questions answered by Mr. Uhlmann and the technical repx-e- sentatives of the major photo graphic coxxxpanies.” • •#*!?•»**•**» The workshop; p^J't of the 14th a n rx.u-.a K Nei|s^apie : | ,/i^echanical ConJterencil aiiH ifh&Je Workshop, will 'begin with a shooting session at 2 p.m. Friday.
