Administrators Air
Two-Year College
Problems Here
School administrators aired
problems facing Texas two-year
colleges during the 12th annual
Junior College Conference at A&M
University Monday.
Subjects ranged from entrance
exams and grades to data process
ing equipment and transfer of jun
ior college credits to senior col
leges.
Dr. Frank W. R. Hubert, dean
of the College of Arts and Sci
ences at A&M, said colleges need
to improve their programs of com
munications with prospective stu
dents and public school personnel.
HUBERT recommended that
Texas, during the next two-year
period, adopt a “well-defined
statewide testing program to be
administered by the Texas Educa
tion Agency” to all college-bound
high school seniors.
In a talk on “New Perspectives
in School and College Relations,”
Hubert also recommended colleges
provide secondary schools data on
each student’s performance “in the
basic subject matter areas and cur
ricula.”
Detailed information on the
total program of studies at the
freshman level of each college
should be provided high schools,
he added.
PLANS FOR data processing
programs in junior colleges were
discussed by Claude Owen of Kil
gore College and R. L. Smith Jr.,
of A&M. The speakers outlined
costs of computing equipment and
the type of machines needed.

HISTORICAL MILESTONE ATTAINED
History Prof To Be Honored
At Texas Writers Roundup
Dr. Joseph M. Nance, professor
of history and head of A&M Uni
versity Department of History and
Government will be among the out
standing Texas authors of the year
to be honored at the fifteenth an
nual Writers Roundup sponsored
by the Austin chapter of Theta
Sigma Phi, honorary journalism
fraternity for women.
The Roundup, to be held in the
Crystal Ballroom of the historic
Driskill Hotel, is planned to bring
together the state’s top authors
and to honor 14 of them for out
standing publication the last year.
This year’s writers and their
works are varied in talent and con
tent, ranging from friction to
scholarship. The works were pub
lished on both sides of the Atlantic.
Nance’s “After San Jacinto: The
Texas Mexican Frontier, 1836-
1841,” has been chosen the out
standing book in Texas history

published this year.
The master of ceremonies for the
Roundup will be Dr. Levi Olan of
Dallas, rabbi of Temple Emanu-El
and a University of Texas regent.
IT WAS IN the summer of 1941,
after he completed the doctorate
at the University of Texas that
Nance started the basic research
for a history of the Texan Mier
Expedition of 1842. Nance studied
under the late Eugene C. Barker,
famed Texas historian.
Having just completed a detailed
study of the “New England Atti
tude toward Westward Expansion,
1800-1850,” as a doctoral disser
tation, Nance was eager to explore
the area of Anglo-American border
relations with Mexico. He was per
plexed by the lack of scholarly re
search on certain areas of the
history of the Republic of Texas,
particularly in regard to the front
ier with Mexico.
Nance soon realized, as he as
sembled the original source mater
ial from widely-scattered cities,
the necessity of a careful study
of the lower Rio Grande frontier
as a background to an understand
ing of the disastrous Mier Expedi
tion.
“AFTER SAN JACINTO” is the
first of three books which will
tell the whole story. The second,

The A&M Chapter of the Pakis
tan Student’s Association of Amer

at 7:30 p.m. Friday in the Memor
ial Student Center Ballroom.
Items to be exhibited at the
meeting will include various daily
articles of home or cottage indus
tries, scenes of interest and his
torical pictures.
Shadow play will be used to
illustrate the Pakistani emergence
from British colonialism.
Also planned for the program
are Pakistani dances to be per
formed by two trained American
girls and Pakistani women.
Alauddin Ahmad, president of
the A&M Chapter will open the
meeting with a brief talk on the
aims of the association.
to be published by the University
of Texas Press in 1964, will com
plete the story through 1842. The
third volume, now about complete,
will be the history of the Mier
Expedition and carry the story of
the frontier down to the annexation
of Texas to the United States.
The first volume tells the full
story of Texas-Mexican relations
from the Battle of San Jacinto
to the capture in March 1842 by a
Mexican army.
Nance joined the A&M faculty
in the Fall of 1941 but World
War II soon interrupted research
on the Texas project.
He served as a communications
officer on the staff of Adh. Chest
er W. Nimitz at Pearl Harbor.
While in Hawaii, he became inter
ested in the life and career of one
of the early American missionaries
who was a leader in the native
government of the islands.
THE A&M professor plans, when
the trilogy on Texas-Mexican re
lations is completed, to do a bio
graphy of the colorful career of the
missionary of the Congregational
Church.
“I always felt that a project
once begun should be completed
before taking up another,” Nance
said in discussing his resumption
of research in Texas history fol
lowing his release from the Navy.

Co-Ed Dorms At Texas Tech
West Hall on the Texas Tech
campus may become that college’s
first co-ed dorm, because of a lack
of rooms for male students.
Tech officials have been forced
to consider a plan under which
the men and women would use
separate entrances and the space
would be split between the sexes.
Only the cafeteria in the currently
two-thirds filled dorm would be
shared.
