iDAY F’s Change
|EThe A&M Lutheran Church vot-
j j ed Wednesday in a congregational
iRsembly, to change the name of
trcSwcLM^i the student congregation to Uni-
ut*bMiCtatv/W fversity Lutheran Church, according
to Lutheran Minister to students,
E. George Becker.
H The congregation, an assembly of
Lutheran students, Aggie wives,
. faculty and staff members, was
organized in the fall of 1961. It
i is a project of the Lutheran
jChurch, Missouri Synod, designed
to serve students and the immed
iate campus community.
K While the congregation is under
the direction of the Texas District
of the Lutheran Church, Missouri
Synod, with headquarters in Aus
tin, the congregation is governed
by the students themselves.
I Services are held in the YMCA
every Sunday at 11 a.m., with |
classes beginning at 10. Gerald
Kieschnick, commanding officer of j
Company A-3, is presently serving j
as congregational president.
educated.
An example of a young man
who knows what he wants and
where he is going, is Noe Marmo-
lejo, a fifth year Architectui'e stu
dent.
Marmolejo was determined to
reach Barcelona, Spain, in time to
represent A&M and, as it turned
out, the United States, at the In
ternational Student Architects
Conference. By making up a bro
chure of all the architectural spots
that he intended to visit in Eu
rope, and showing it to various
interested parties, he convinced
them of his sincerity and persuad
ed them to finance his trip.
As it turned out Marmolejo not
only represented A&M at the con
ference but became chairman of
the United States delegation.
Yet another Aggie by the name
of Alvaro Restrepo was deter
mined to go on a tour of Europe.
By supplementing an allowance
from his parents with his own
money from part time work, he
was able to finance a 9000-mile
trip that took him all over Europe.
He took a total of 540 photographs
that he will be paying for all year.
Thus six Aggies, either by
grants and scholarships or by in
genuity and hard work, were able
to complete trips that gave them
deeper insight and lasting under
standing into the world around
them.

Nutrition Conference Aims
For Better Animal Diets
About 250nutritionists, bio
chemists and feed manunfacturers
gathered at the Texas Nutrition
Conference on the A&M campus,
Wednesday through Friday to hear
33 speakers tell of new or improved
methods of nutrition on animals
and poultry.
The conference was a joint un
dertaking of the Department of
Animal Husbandry, Biochemistry,
and Nutrition, Dairy Science and
Poultry Science.
H. L. German of Texas Farm
Products spoke Wednesday on the
need for supplementary feeding of
Vitamin A to cattle. German
cited cases in which cattle grazed
improved pastures and yet showed
improved performance when inject
ed with Vitamin A. He said that
breeding performance would be im
proved by increasing the number of
conceptions and also by boosting
the number of viable, healthy
calves.
ANOTHER speaker, Damon V.
Catron, vice-president for research
and development with Walnut
Groves Products Company said any
swine program from the feed mak
er’s standpoint should be aimed at
the final product—pork. It should
be the goal of every swine feed
maker to design a feeding program
based upon latest technology, which
he can properly manufacture, dis
tribute and sell.
Thursday, Dr. J. H. Quisenberry,
head of the Poultry Science Depart
ment, discussed the role which
genetics plays in poultry produc
tion. He described experiments
which have shown that body
weight, egg production, and meta
bolic efficiency are heritable.
OF BIRDS experimented with,
50 per cent of the variations in
feed consumption could be account
ed for by difference in body size,
31 per cent by difference in rate
of lay, and 7 to 8 per cent by in
herent difference in metabolic ef
ficiency between strains.
Quisenberry said that the phy
siologist who bridges the gap be
tween the geneticist and the nutri
tionist will play a key role in the
solution of many programs facing
the poultry industry today.

This question has always plagued the mind of man. It will probably
never be completely answered to his satisfaction until he sees and believes
the .evidence of man’s importance to God: Thou hast made him a little
loiver than the angels.
It remained for Jesus Christ, to reveal the love of God. Sunday —
World Communion Day — Christians will unite in the sacrament which
is their richest experience of the glory and honor God has given.
The world over, men will rejoice in the Divine Love,
that God gave His Son for humanity.
