New Yoi’kers will soon learn
that the old art of cow punching;
in Texas is losing: some of its
glamour to cold automation and
card punching:.
Dr. T. C. Cartwright, geneticist
with the Department of Animal
Husbandry, will tell them how
this is coming about when he
presents a paper at the IBM Agri
cultural Symposium Sept. 23-2(3
at Endicott, N. Y.
Cattlemen still rely largely on
the experienced eye in selecting
and judging beef animals. But
lately, A&M researchers have been
demonstrating that electronic com
puters can do a thorough and ob
jective job of cattle selection.
The workers collect large a-
mounts of information on certain
cattle types and lines, punch in
the data on cards and then feed
them through computers in the
Data Processing Center. Out come
■suggested programs to follow.
- The title of Cartwright’s talk ?
What else but “Punch Card Cattle
Judging” ?

Research findings of two A&M
University sanitary engineering
professors are expected to aid
cities in attaining greater capacity
and efficiency with sewage treat
ment facilities.
They are described in the arti
cle “Heavy Loadings on Trickling
Filters” by J. H. Sorrels and
P. J. A. Zeller which appears in the
September issue of the Journal
of the Water Pollution Control
Federation. The researchers oper
ated batteries of primary and sec
ondary experimental trickling fil
ters in series for two years with
settled sewage from the univer
sity treatment plant to obtain the
data.
The work was sponsored cooper
atively by the Department of Civil
Engineering and Engineering Ex
periment Station.

The conference is sponsored by
the Federated Pecan Growers of

San Marcos Academy Has
Twin Girl Sharpshooters
AUSTIN (AP)—Two sharp-sighted young 1 beauties have
the boys at San Marcos Baptist Academy wide eyed.
The 15-year-old Tune twins, Annie and Tina, of Dallas,
have just become the first females ever to make the rifle
team at the academy. In fact, they are the first girls ever
to make the attempt.
There were a few chuckles last week when the petite
misses turned out for rifle team tryouts. The mirth turned
to amazement when the girls racked up identical scores of
89 to place in the top six shooters.
The twins have been firing rifles for six years. They
learned and have kept in practice at Camp Lake Hubert for
girls in Nebraska where they will be counselors next summer.

Hryasi Internal Revenue Head
Presents Plan For Employers
A workable plan to reduce the
chore of employers in handling
wage levies against their ^em
ployees for delinquent federal in
come taxes was presented today by
Clarence E. Carlson, administra
tive officer of Internal Revenue
Service office in Bryan.
The plan, he said, solves the
major cause for wage levies a-
gainst delinquent workers, namely,
that the amount to tax withheld
from wages or salaries is lower
in many cases than the amount of
tax due at the end of the year.
