Veterinary College
Granted $22,950
In Research Aid
The College of Veterinary Medi
cine has received grants totaling
$22,950 to support research work.
Two of the grants are to the
Department of Veterinary Micro
biology. The Morris Animal Foun
dation in Denver, Colo., has pro
vided $11,000 to support research
on equine infectious anemia and
related diseases.
Dr. A. A. Price, dean of the
college, said primary objectives
are to develop serologic tests, new
diagnostic techniques and to grow
the virus in a tissue culture sys
tem. Dr. R. W. Moore, Dr. C. W.
Livingston and Dr. L. H. Russell
are directing the project.

Office of Continuing Education
is a new name. Previously, it
was called Short Course Office.
The headquarters are now in the
Memorial Student Center, where
most of the conferences are held.
But there’s nothing new about
the program. It dates back to
1944, although Texans have at
tended training programs at A&M
since the early 1900’s.
SEVERAL of the current confer
ences, in fact, date back to the
early 1920’s, and some — includ
ing the Farmers Short Course —
was known to exist years earlier.
Some of today’s offerings in
clude such programs as the Inter
national Conference on Activation
Analysis, Executive Development
Conference, Feed Microscopy and
Instrumentation Symposium.
The space age offerings have
pushed aside such choice schools
as the Horse, Jack and Mule short
course of the early 1930’s, which
incidentally, attracted several hun
dred persons.
INSTRUCTION on aircondition
ing was presented delegates until
the late 1940’s, along with a milk
sanitarians’ school, one for cotton
ginners and others.
Hensel and his staff conduct the
registration, which consists of
making name tags, collecting fees,
writing receipts, selling tickets to
dinners, providing information and
assisting with housing.
Registration fees may reach sev
eral thousand dollars in such cases
as the Texas Firemen’s Training
School, which attracts almost 2,-
000 persons to the campus annual
ly-
Or the conference fees may be
slight with schools where the en
rollment is limited to small groups.
NOT ALL COURSES are handl
ed by the Continuing Education
Office, Hensel said. Both agricul
ture and engineering extension
services, in some instances, organ
ize and operate their own pro
grams.
Just how many people are reg
istered by Hensel’s staff each year
depends upon the number of cours
es held on the campus. Generally

speaking, about 50 conferences and

education each year.
This figure does not include
other short courses and meetings
that are not processed by the Con
tinuing Education Office.
WITH A NEW office and new
name — continuing education —
Hensel feels the new environment
will offer several advantages. No
longer will registration materials
be packed a couple of blocks to
register several thousand people
in another building.
The bookkeeping and registra
tion can be conducted in the same
building — the MSC. Arrange
ments for facilities may be handled
in the same office.
So an A&M faculty memoer in
charge of a conference can have
the delegates housed, fed, register
ed, and lectured in the same build
ing.
Such an arrangement was the
dream of the A&M Century Study,
a long-range study of future needs
of the university by faculty and
staff and 100 Texas laymen.
College Bowl Quiz
Elimination Trials
To Begin Tonight
Thirty - three candidates for
A&M’s College Bowl team begin
elimination trials Tuesday.
The oral quizzes will choose
four students to represent A&M
on the national television show at
7:30 p.m. Tuesday in 113 Nagle
Hall.
Eliminatinons will be held each
Tuesday and Thursday for the
next three weeks. Dr. Harry P.
Kroitor, assistant professor of
English and director, said.
“We invite all students and
faculty members to these pan
els,” Dr. Kroitor said.
The candidates have taken six
written examinations over mater
ials received during the summer.
The panel sessions on Tues
days will be the first trials under
conditions similar to the tele
vision show.
The elimination tria's will con
sist of 20-minute quiz contests
for eight students. Students will
be scored on the ability to re
call facts quickly.
The Aggies are scheduled to
appear the afternoon of Nov. 10,
before NBC network cameras in
New York City.

3 Research Grants
Rudder Announces
The National Science Foundation
Monday notified President Earl
Rudder of three grants totaling
$30,650 for undergraduate research
projects open to 23 students. The
programs are renewals of projects
last summer.
The research grants are for bio
chemistry and nutrition, oceanog
raphy and physics.
A similar program in soil physics
and involving seven students
earlier received NSF approval for
next summer.
The proposals for new programs
next summer involving under
graduate research participation
may be filed until Jan. 15, Coleman
Loyd, NSF coordinator on campus,
said.
The undergraduate research pro
grams, which may be offered either
in the summer, or the academic
year, or both, involve a minimum
of 10 weeks participation. Some
are primarily f or A&M under
graduates, some involve under
graduates from other campuses.
The physics program to be di
rected by associate professor Joe
S. Ham will involve three students
this academic year and eight dur
ing the summer.
The oceanography program is for
six students next summer. The
director is Richard M. Adams, an
administrative scientist.
The program in biochemistry
and nutrition will involve five stu
dents next summer and five the
following academic year. Profes
sor H. O. Kunkel is director.
The program in soil physics in
volves seven students during the
summer and three this academic
year.. Professor Morris E. Blood-
worth is program director.

With the strong support of the
Texas Society of Professional En

ganization of the National Society
of Professional Engineers designed
to acquaint high school students
with engineering and science. As
a result, they can make better
preparation in high school for the
study of these subjects in college.
Through organized technical activi
ties and competition and guidance
from engineers, interest is keen,
McGuire said.
IN YOUTH activities, Chairman
Bell has served as district chair
man for the Boy Scouts of Ameri
ca in Los Angeles, on the execu
tive board of the Sam Houston
Area Council and as chairman of
its 1960 Scout circus. He received
the Silver Beaver Award from the
Los Angeles Council in 1960. In
Houston he served as chairman of
the 1960 Eagle Recognition Com
mittee and is currently chairman of
the Council Camping Committee.
He was elected to the board of the
San Jacinto Chapter, Girl Scouts
of America in 1962.
Bell has been active in the petro

Persistent Disease
Control Saving
For Poultrymen
The U. S.) .poultry industry prob
ably could save in excess of $100
million a year if it would knock
out persistent diseases under the
heading of “pluro pneumonia-like
organisms.”
The S-6 strain of PPLO, as
poultrymen call it, causes poultry
losses through mortality, reduced
performance, medication costs, and
condemnation, Dr. C. F. Hall of the
College of Veterinary Medicine said
here Friday.
The veterinirian, a speaker at
A&M's 18th annual Texas Nutri
tion Conference, said PPLO is egg-
transmitted. Few commercial chick
en breeder flocks at the present
time are free of the infection.
“But most foundation breeders
are working diligently to establish
PPLO-free units in their opera
tions,” Dr. Hall added. “Proce
dures to do this are expensive and
time consuming. Since there is
little foundation stock free of
PPLO, it means that all breeders
must attempt to establish PPLO-
free foundation stock from infected
parent stock.”
He said several techniques are
employed to do this, all of which
reduce but do not completely elimi
nate the disease. However, with
reduction of egg - transmitted
PPLO, it is possible to brood and
rear small groups in isolation and
to expect some of the groups will
be PPLO-free.
Forty-five senior Army ROTC
cadets have been chosen from a
class of 223. In a special cere
mony, Col. D. L. Baker, professor
of military science and comman
dant of the Corps, said, “These
cadets are to be congratulated for
academic standing, military pro
ficiency and leadership.
If the designated cadets main
tain their record through this
academic year they may receive a
regular army instead of reserve
commission.
Twenty-nine senior Air Science
cadets were designated Distini-
guished Air Force ROTC cadets by
Col. James F. Starkey, professor
of Air Science, in a special cere
mony last Saturday.
