Bob Barsch, from Brady, prefers not to reveal the exact locality of the discovery in order to pro tect the property of the landowner. The find, which consisted of a complete skeleton of an Indian woman and the remaining parts of what is believed to be a man, was made late in July in the Edwards Plateau region. Barsch plans to have a Carbon 14 analysis made of the skeletons to determine the age and then he plans to give the skeletons to a museum. “I accidently noticed a portion of bone protruding from a creek bank under a limestone layer of rock when walking to the cabin for dinner after checking a fence line,” Barsch said. “After three hours of tedious work, George Powell, also a wild life student, and I removed the skeletal parts,” Barsch added. They found no artifacts in the grave, but within a surrounding area of 50 yards, Barsch and Powell uncovered arrow points, scrapers, broken spearheads and mussel shells. They also saw in dication of Indian mounds. “The burial seems to be typical of Indian burials from what I gathered from Harl Fowler of Brady, a collector of Indian relics,” Barsch said. The Indians were in a small cave of the creek bank with soil and rocks placed over the entrance. The two skeletons were laying in crouched positions side by side, with the male on his back and the female on her side with her head at his feet. Banking Meet To Aid Farms The topic, “What Kind of Farm Programs Should We Have?” will be explored at A&M University’s 12th annual Farm and Ranch Credit School for Commercial Bankers Nov. 26-27. Program Chairman Reagan Brown of the Department of Ag ricultural Economics and Sociology said the subject will be treated in a panel discussion by three men who have definite ideas at out farm programs.

THE BATTALION Friday, November 22, 1963 College Station, Texas Page 5 Former MSC Shoe Shine Boy Could Be First Negro Graduate BY RAY HARRIS Special Writer Arthur Lee Dunn hopes to be the first Negro graduate of A&M University. A sociology major, Dunn is one of two undergraduate Negro students attending A&M this Fall. Arthur is not new to the cam pus. He has been employed as a shine boy at the Memorial Student Center barber shop since 1956. “After I graduate, I hope to get a job as a probation officer here in Texas,” Arthur said. “I want to help the kids. There are too many on the streets and I think that I understand their problems.” HE ADDED that he meant youths of all races. This year Ar thur has been largely responsible for keeping three boys from be coming high school dropouts. There is reason why Arthur might understand the problems of young people. He has had many of the same problems of today’s youth to surmount himself. TO HELP SUPPORT himself and six other children of a father less family he started working when he was nine years old. An Aggie Ex, Don Fazzino, was his employer until he graduated from E. A. Kemp High School in Bryan. When Arthur first started, he was earning fifty cents a day. He was making $30 a week when he grad uated. An all-state football player in high school, Arthur won a football scholarship to Prairie View A&M College. Arthur left school at the end of football season and joined the Army. He was 17. “THE ARMY was good for me. I matured and became a better man.” When he was released from the Army, he again tried commuting to Prairie View. This became imprac- + tical and he started working as a shine boy at the MSC. This Fall, after seven years, he had another chance to go to college and en rolled at A&M for six hours. He plans to increase his load as time passes. By 1966, Arthur hopes to be a senior. “When you are willing to work hard and respect the people you come in contact with, you will get along all right,” he says. ARTHUR GETS ALONG all right—in fact, he has nothing hut praise for A&M. The administra tion and faculty have been very helpful to Arthur and he has never had any trouble of any kind with the student body. He has made many friends. Ar thur is probably one of the best known personalities on campus — or off. He has, pending gradua tion, job offers from A&M former students all over the United States. They feel that if he can work his way from a shine boy to a college degree, he deserves a good job. Many of these men, now executives and community leaders, were once patrons of Arthur’s shoe shine business. University Bank Has Appointments The Board of Directors of the University National Bank in Col lege Station has elected R. B. Butler as chairman of the Board and Robert L. Ayers as director.
