Slates Lecture
Tuesday Night
The student chapter of the In
stitute of Aerospace Sciences will
sponsor a lecture by Air Force
Maj. G. J. Sherrill Tuesday night
in Room 304 of the Military
Sciences Building.
Sherrill, who has spent much of
his military career in the Air De
fense Command, will discuss the
systems and safety operations of
the U. S. Air Force F-106 inter
ceptor.
A graduate of LSU in 1949,
Sherrill is presently studying aero
space engineering. He came to
A&M from Castle Air Force Base
in California.
Prior to the lecture, IAS mem
bers will have their picture taken
for the Aggieland on the front
steps of the Memorial Student
Center at 7:30 p.m. The lecture
will begin immediately after the
picture.
The public has been invited to
attend the lecture.

Religious Seminar Series
Slated To Begin Wednesday
The first of a series of religious
seminers will be held at 7:15 p.m.
Wednesday at the Presbyterian
Student Center.
The seminars, sponsored by the
Wesley Foundation, the Canter
bury Club and the Presbyterian
Student Association, will include
Biblical and theological studies and
Christian life and work.
The Rev. William Oxley, an Epis
copal minister, will be resource
person for the Biblical studies.
John Combs, the Methodist chap
lain, will direct theological studies.
The Christian life and work dis
cussions will be led by Arlan
Fowler, the Presbyterian chaplain.
The emphasis for the seven-week
seminar will be on discussion and
exchange rather than lecture.
Combs compared the meetings
to a little seminary and said:
“We wish to give the student
an opportunity to stay abreast
of what is happening in contem
porary theology while he is con
ducting his regular studies.”

Gulf Study Key

Dr. W. M. Cameron, chairman of
an international commission on
oceanography, described the Gulf
of Mexico as “an extremely inter
esting region” for the study of
various problems of oceanography
during a visit here last week.
The Gulf of Mexico can become
a great laboratory for the study
,of fundamental problems with
many findings applicable around
the world, Cameron said.

oceanography today,” Cameron
said, “is the exchange of energy
across the surface of the sea...”
Knowing more of the relationship
between the seas and the weather
holds much promise, he pointed
out.
The Gulf of Mexico as a virtually
enclosed body of water offers spe
cial opportunities for such studies.
There also are special opportuni
ties for studies in biology and
geology.
Cameron serves currently as
chairman of the Intergovernmental
Commission on Oceanography, an
organization with representatives
of some 40 nations.
He heads the Marine Sciences
Division of the Canadian Depart
ment of Mines and Technical Sur
veys.
size basic physiological and bio
chemical studies of the cotton
plant.
The Producers Institute con
tract is with the Texas Agricul
tural Experiment Station.
THE GRANT IS one of 11 pro
jects financed by the Producers
Institute, a voluntary, grower-
financed plan to increase markets
and profits through stepped-up
research and promotion. Projects
are serviced by the National Cot
ton Council.
Russell Giffen of Fresno, Calif.,
a cotton grower, is chairman of
trustees for the Producers In
stitute.
HALL, THE PROGRAM’S co
ordinator, said research will be
done by specialists in chemistry,
physiology, nutrition, biochemis
try and other areas. They will
attempt to assemble a detailed
picture of how the plant grows
and produces cotton. Such in
formation is needed to uncover
new research approaches to solv
ing production problems.
Joham, who is project leader,
said A&M and the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture will provide
approximately $80,000 in program
support. In addition, two new
A&M buildings with radiochem
ical laboratories, environment
control chambers and other es
sential facilities will be available
for the work.
Joham described the program
as unique for cotton. He said
there is no other effort which br
ings' expert scientists in many
fields together on one team to
work exclusively oh the cotton
plant’s basic physiology and bio
chemistry systems.
MUCH OF THE current cotton
research is hindered by lack of
basic information of why and
how a plant “ticks,” Joham said.
Additional knowledge is needed
along this line before cotton can
be made more competitive with
synthetics, fiber improved and
production costs lowered.
