I Pastoriza Accepts
I Roundtable Post
Thomas A. Pastoriza, president
of Asociacion para el Desarrollo
Inc., a private, non-profit develop
ment association which is sponsor
ing several programs including an
agricultural school in Santiago,
has accepted a position as a round
table co-chairman in the ninth an
nual Student Conference on Na
tional Affairs, to be held in the
Memorial Student Center, Dec. 11-
14.
Pastoriza was born in the city
of Santiago de los Caballeros,
Dominican Republic, Feb. 7, 1919.
He attended George Washington
University, graduating with a BSc.
degree in 1943. In 1944 he obtained
his civil engineering Degree at the
University of Santo Domingo.
During the years 1944-45 he
worked with an American firm
of consulting engineers in South
America. Since 1945 he has been
with Augusto Espaillat Sues., C.
por A., a prominent dry-goods firm
established in Santiago in 1870
by his grandfather. At present
he is the general manager of the
firm and vice-president of the
board.
Serge Lentz, the only West
ern journalist to enter Red
China for the past decade,
will present a film and lec
ture Thursday evening at
8 in Guion Hall. Admission
is free to activity card
holders.
He is a member of American
Management Association, Ameri
can Society of Civil Engineers,
Chamber of Commerce of Santiago,
and Association Dominicana de In-
genieros y Artuitectos.
Recently he served as President
of a commission which studied and
made recommendations for the
establishment of a regional de
velopment authority modelled aft
er the T.V.A. to plan and manage
the future development programs
in the Yaque Valley, where San
tiago is located.
Pastoriza is married to Claudia
Tavares and they have two child
ren.
The theme of the conference this
year is U. S. monetary and fiscal
policy: a taxpayer’s view.
Approximately 150 delegates
form 80 Colleges and Universities.
Today’s Thought
A school is more than just stu
dents, it is a spirit.

Center Pole Up
Towering behind Duncan Dining
Hall is a 95-foot pole which marks
the beginning of the actual con
struction. This structure has been
put up by Spider D-l.
THERE ARE TWO poles spliced
together that were bought from the
Navasota International Paper Co.
for $85. One pole is 80 feet tall
and the other is 30 feet tall. A 10-
foot splice binds them together, and
the pole is sunk 5 feet into the
ground. This makes the center-
pole 95 feet above the ground. The
Bonfire Committee paid for the
poles.
Jeff Harp, vice president of the
Civilian Student Council, an
nounced further plans for civilian
participation in bonfire work Tues
day night.

Faculty Colloquim
Hosts Climate Talk
Gulf coast weather and A&M
University’s role in the meteoro
logical satellite program will be
the topic at 4 p.m. Thursday
for the A&M Graduate Faculty
Colloquium. Coffee will be served
at 3:30 p.m. as graduate faculty
and students gather in the Archi
tecture Building Auditorium.
The Department of Oceanogra
phy and Meteorology will present
the program for this colloquium,
the second of the 1963-64 series.
Dr. Dale F. Leipper, department
head, and associate professor A.
H. Thompson, who has done ex
tensive research in the area of
meteorological satellites, will
participate.
Thompson’s announced topic is
“Gulf Coast Weather from 800
Kilometers Above, A&M's Role in
the Meteorological Satellite Pro
gram.”
“We can have complete telephone service in every stu
dent’s room on the campus by January of 1966 if Mr. Rudder,
the Board and the student body give us their approval,’’ said
Clark C. Munroe Director of Personnel for the University.
The service would include complete on-off campus dialing
with no operator needed and long distance calls too.
Each student would be asked to pay $2.50 a month for
the service. Considering that University of Texas students
pay $10.00 a month for the same service, this is quite a bar
gain, said Munroe.
The plan is just part of a operation to completely rework
the University communications system that was begun last
January, said Munroe.
At that time different
corporations that specialize in
communications systems were
contacted and Southwestern
States Telephone Co. came up with
the best proposal.
The plan which would put a
phone on every professor’s desk,
unite the student body with com
plete communication facilities, re
wire the existing system elimina
ting the present haphazard, some
times poorly connected existing
system, lay a new trunk line be
tween Bryan and College Station,
would cost the University $80,000,
said Monroe.
Included in the system would
be a throw-switch which would
cause phones to go through an
operator after a certain time of
night to eliminate crank or nu-

In her shake down cruise, Ala

Lellan, professor of Oceanography
and Meteorology.
“Things went as well as we ex
pected them to, and we encount
ered no real problems, with the
weather good, and the sea fairly
calm,” said McLellan.
On the second run Alaminos left
Orange Tuesday morning, and she
will travel some 250 miles into
the Gulf of Mexico, where she will
be used for actual work with her
electrical equipment. The cruise
is expected to end Friday or Sat
urday when she will return to Gal
veston and make that city her
home port.
“We have other cruises planned
for the future, such as from Dec.
21, we go back into the Gulf
region for seismec and magnetic
studies, Jan. 2, to Feb. 15 for study
of physical oceanography of the
western Gulf, and in February or
July, we study geology of the
Caribbean. In late spring, there
are more short cruises planned for
the testing of our equipment, while
on the first of July to Sept. 10,
we study the physical oceanogra
phy off the northern coast of
Brazil and Guianas,” said Otis
Eickenhorst, administrative assist

and possibly crucial hours of
Wednesday morning. Students
from Puryear, Walton, Hart and
Leggett will guard from 2:45 a.m.
until 4:45 and Law, Mitchell, Mil
ner and Dorm 13 will stand guard
from 4:45 a.m. until 6:30 a.m.
THE CIVILIANS have also been
asked to help stand guard between
7 and 8 p.m. each night while the
Corps eats dinner. They are sched

Tuesday night, Mitchell Hall.
Dorm representatives will meet
with Harp Friday night in the
Student Senate Office on the lower
level of the Memorial Student
Center at 9 to finish plans for
Saturday’s cutting area work.
THE TEXAS Engineering Heavy
Equipment School is furnishing the
cranes that stack the logs and also
set the centerpole. The 10 foot
hole was dug free of charge by
the Milstead Foundation Drilling
Company of Bryan.
Cadet Captain David L. Lyons,
Company Commander of Spider D
said, “I don't know how the Spiders
originally received the honor of
putting up the centerpole, but as
long as I have been here and talk
ing to former Spiders, it just has
always been a Spider tradition to
put it up.”
Lyons stated that work on splic
ing the pole began Wednesday
afternoon and the work was com
pleted Thursday at noon.
Range, Forestry Students
Planning Local Turkey Sale
“Would you like to buy a
turkey ? ”
This will be the question asked
by the students in the Range and
Forestry Club this week as they
canvass the Bryan-College Station
area. This area has been divided
into 19 sectors and each sector will
be covered by a three-man team,
said Dr. J. D. Dodd, assistant pro
fessor of Range and Forestry.
The purpose for selling the
turkeys will be to raise money to
help finance club activities, said
Dodd. The money will be used to
help pay the expenses of delegates
to state and national conventions.
The plant identification team’s ex
penses to the conventions will also
come from this money, he said.
The turkeys will range from 10-
12 pounds, mentioned Dodd, but he
said that anyone desiring a bird
larger than this can get one by
asking the salesman. The birds
will be cleaned and dressed, and
are wrapped in cellophane bags.
They will be delivered to the
buyer’s residence by the student
who sells them, he said.
This sale lasts through Tuesday,
but turkeys will be available for
Christmas, said Dodd.
If anyone desiring a turkey has
not been contacted, he can call the
Department of Range and Forestry
and place an order there. The num
ber is VI 6-8791.

siance calls disturbing students

In March it was found that the
south wing of the Academic
Building was the center of all
wire plans of the campus and that
the lower floor would be needed
for the complex equipment that
must be installed in a large, air
conditioned space. After research
was done on the Academic Build
ing, it was found that there had
been a severe foundation collapse
in 1953.
Many braces and beams were
placed under the old foundation
and laying cables through the
foundation walls would be virtual
ly impossible.
This major problem was over
come with the addition of plans for
even lower cavities to be dug and
running the cables under the old
foundation.
July brought plans to remove
old wiring that is largely responsi
ble for the low quality of voice re
ception in the present system.
A new cable will be laid from
Bryan to College Station and voice
boosters will be added to improve
signal strength.
The large number of long dis
tance calls would be handled by
an improved toll center and credit
cards would be issued to those stu
dents who wish to have them.
There would be three ways to
place a long distance call: billing
the call to a third party, placing
the call collect and with the cre
dit card, stated Monroe.
The credit card system would
prevent the university from being
a billing agent for the phone com
pany.
A phone book would be printed
for the university just as one is
printed now for Bryan - College
Station.
“The plan is now ready for pre
sentation to President Rudder and
the Board. After that, a referen
dum will probably be held to see
if the student will pay the price,”
concluded Monroe.
Foreign Student’s
Spouses Honored
The Hospitality Committee of
the International Institute of Edu
cation, entertained the wives of
the international students Tuesday
afternoon. The guests represented
six countries, including England,
the United Arab Republic, India,
Pakistan, Indonesia and Colombia.
A movie, “Friends at Our Doors,”
prepared by the State Department,
was shown in co-operation with
Rutgers University.
Tea and cookies were served by
Mrs. Dan Davis, chairman of the
subcommittee for student wives.
The Hospitality Room will be open
each afternoon Mondays through
Fridays from 2-5 p.m.
