And the quickest, most accurate system of record interpretation is through use of electronic com puters. The job can be done with pencil and paper on the kitchen table, but unless the cattleman can push the job off on his wife, he’d better prepare to become a book keeper. There are all sorts of names for cattle breeding programs that “re ly” on computers. Dr. T. C. Cart wright, geneticist in the A&M Uni- A&M’s G. W. Vogt Has Been Honored By U. S. Vet School First Lt. George W. Vogt of Weimar, a 1963 veterinary gradu ate of A&M University, has been honored as the 2,500th officer graduate of a course in Chicago’s U. S. Army Medical Service Vet erinary School. The course was in veterinary preventive medicine and food in spection. Brig. Gen. Russell McNellis, assistant for veterinary services, Office of the Surgeon General, and Col. Charles V. L. Elia, comman dant of the U. S. Army Medical Service Veterinary School, pre sented a certificate of recognition to Vogt during graduate exercises. Lieutenant Vogt received his DVM degree last May from the A&M College of Veterinary Medi cine. He was commanding officer of the ROTC Veterinary Company and a member of the Ross Volun teers. Lieutenant Vogt is presently assigned to the Office of the Sta tion Veterinarian, U. S. Army Hos pital, Fort Monmouth, N. J.

THE NAME means pretty much what it says. Data are collected from a good set of records, punched into cards and fed into an electronic computer. Out come the performance records ready for use Mexican Students To Commemorate Revolution’s Date Students of the Republic of Mexico at A&M University will have a ceremony Saturday at 3 p.m. in Rooms 3-A and 3-B of the Memorial Student Center to com memorate the 53rd anniversary of the Mexican Revolution. Jose I. Rodriguez, who is in charge of the event, said they will “honor the revolutionaries who initiated the great social movement which gave Mexico the peace, liberty, and social justice that every Mexican citizen enjoys to day.” The ceremony will be opened with the singing of the Mexican National Anthem. Rodriguez, senior in business administration, will be master of ceremonies. Santiago Riachi, sophomore in in dustrial engineering, will make a brief summary of the revolutionary period, from 1910 to 1917. Ricardo Arocha, junior in indus trial engineering, will discuss the legacy of the Revolution. Closing the program, Noe Marmolejo, senior in architecture, will recite Lopez Velarde’s poem, “Suave Patria.” in the selection program. Whatever the name, the system sterns from a definite need to boost beef cattle productivity because economics of the business say it’s got to be done. Since beef is not usually in serious surplus, produc tion is narrowed down to cost fac tors primarily. Improving cattle through selec tion is a means of producing effi cient performing cattle. And punch card selection is a tool to get the job done fast, accurately and eco nomically. INHERENT PRODUCTIVITY of beef cattle has come a long way, Cartwright says, but it still has a long way to go. Advances along this line have not kept pace with swine and poultry breeding, partly, of course, because cattle repro duce and grow slower. Record keeping, he admits, is a problem and seldom a pleasant chore. But an accurate set will be necessary if the cattleman is thinking strongly of trying a com puter program. Records must account for hered itary (genotype) as well as envir onmental effects. Differences caused by environment must be equalized, the geneticist points out. For example, a calf from a ma ture cow is usually bigger than a calf from a heifer. Such smallness in the heifer’s calf should not be held against the animal in evalu ating it as a potential breeder. Cartwright says problems like this, if records are accurate to start with, can be handled in a computer. Complete records are summarized to show how produc tivity is progressing. The system is underway at A&M and is get ting good results.

Freshman Drill Team Heads Saturday’s Rice Game Review A&M University’s unique drill team, composed of 40 first-year cadets, will be a featured unit in the Corps parade through down town Houston Saturday. The Class of 1967 will have its hands full living up to the team’s reputation. Preceding freshmen teams have won every major drill competition in the South, includ ing the Southwestern Invitational and the Fiesta Flambeau last year. The unit has added a new wrinkle to their marching gear: 12-inch steel bayonets affixed to their M-l rifles. Team advisor Capt. Calvin Reese said the bayo nets would “insure precision” of the intricate manual-of-arms done on the march. Team members are chosen in October on the basis of academic standing and military bearing. They practice about 10 hours Serge Lentz, a French journalist who posed as a textile buyer to gain entry to Red China, will pre sent lecture-film at 8 p.m., Nov. 21, at A&M University. The speaker, sponsored by the Great Issues Committee received the Red Carpet treament on his three-week tour of Shanghai, Can ton, Peking and rural regions of the People’s Republic. While in Red China, he managed to shoot 3,500 feet of movie film and 1,100 slides. At the end of three weeks, Lentz was awakened by two secret service agents in a hotel at Canton and was questioned for hours. Feeling his work had been dis covered, Lentz collected his film and escaped. Lentz’s story received nation wide coverage in American news papers, on Walter Cronkite’s tele vision show and in magazines. Lentz, correspondent and editor for the Paris Match magazine, was educated at Cambridge University in England and the Political Sci ence Institute in Paris. He is an award-winning jour nalist and photographer who re ceived two coveted European awards for coverage of the Al gerian crisis. He has covered international stories in Hungary, Cuba, Indo China, Iran, South weekly during intramural periods. Commander of the unit is Rich ard W. Gorssenbacher of San An tonio.
