CRAMMERS,’ ‘PREDESTINED’ n j of fee Shop Poll Reveals Varied Methods For Studying By BOB SCHULZ Special Writer “It’s never too late; there is et hope.” This optimistic viewpoint seems be the one most commonly rared by Aggies concerning final jams. In a poll conducted in the emorial Student Center coffee aop, the melting pot of higher aming at A&M, all students who aye been on the campus for at ;ast a year agreed that last rinute study can increase final xam grades. The opinions on the degree of his study, however, ranged from ne extreme to the other. They ould be classed as the “cram- icrs,” the “moderates” and the predestined.” AT ONE EXTREME are the crammers.” They advocate all last ditch effort, liberally ;reased with midnight oil and leep retarding pills. V r James Morgan, a senior history najor, said that he re-reads, out- ines chapters, and memorizes. “I sit down with my books and ook at them,” he said. “It’s lossible to learn something, even jefore finals. You might not re- ;ain it, but it’s there long enough put down on a quiz.” Mike Marlowe, a senior major- ng in marketing, said “Take good wtes, cram before the quiz, and squeeze.” However, he added that paying attention in class is the jest way to prepare, and that any reading before a final should be only for the purpose2 of sum marizing. A soph forestry major, Craig Boyce, said that he goes through ^DAY & SATURDAY Connie Stevens & Jerry Van Dyke In “PALM SPRINGS WEEKEND” STARTS SUNDAY Jayne Mansfield In “PROMISES, PROMISES” (UNCUT) STARTS WEDNESDAY lo^tinatYUMlfoMg |emmoru CIRCLE LAST NITE 2 Color Hits Haley Mills In “SUMMER MAGIC” & Glenn Ford In “CIMARRON” -Z&2- OUR SATURDAY NITE BIG 3 No. 1 Debbie Reynolds In “IT STARTED WITH A KISS” No. 2 Joel McCrea In “WICHITA” No. 3 Mickey Rooney In “BABY FACE: NELSON” a book, underlining points as he comes to them, and then studies the underlining. Milam Munson, a sophomore majoring in agricultural econo mics, just said, “I cram.” THE NEXT GROUP of scholars are the “moderates.” They believe in the calm collected approach. To them, studying for finals is only a refresher course. Ed Kainer, a junior in sociology, feels that understanding the prof is most important. This, he says, makes it possible to conduct a topic study, emphasizing the points that the prof can be ex pected to ask. Clyde Griesenbeck, a senior in electrical engineering, re-works assigned problems and studies old quizzes. This method seems very popular among the slide rule set. A general study and review is advocated by George Eitt, a senior in physical education; “It’s al ways good,” Eitt said as he chalked a cue stick, “to emphasize the last few chapters.” Carlos Salinas, a senior Math major, makes use of “dead week” Wive’s Club Hosts Banquet On Friday Members of the Oceanography and Meteorology Wives Club and husbands will hold their Ph & T banquet Friday at 8 p.m. The event will be held at Franklin’s on the Jones Bridge Road. Dr. Dale Leipper, head of the Department of Oceanography and Meteorology, will give a short speech, and “diplomas” will be given to each of the wives whose husbands are graduating. There will be a social hour from 7 to 8 p.m., with dinner served at eight. Dancing will follow. Methodist Church Conducts Study The A&M Methodist Church is conducting a Church Wide Mis sion Study during the month of January each Sunday from 7 to 8 p.m. directed by Horace Jacob of India, Ghaziabad. He is work ing toward the doctorate in poul try science at A&M. Jacob was a speaker on mis sion work in India before coming to the United States. He came here first in 1956 to attend Sam Houston State Teachers College. He then returned to India and was the Director of the agricultural program in the Ingraham Insti tute, a Methodist school. He re turned to the States in 1961 to Peen State University to do some graduate work.

He believes in intensive, but organized study during final week. FINALLY IN THE MATTER OF FINALS, we have the “pre destined.” They feel that if one doesn’t know his material by final week, no amount of cram ming will help. “You ought to be ready for finals before they come,” said Bob Hipp, senior English major. David Stiles, a junior in journa lism, says all hard studying should be done before final week.” “A light review before finals is best,” he said. One man said that he never shaves during final week, and this always brings him luck. We know some who would never shave again if it would bring them luck. NSF Sponsors Earth Science Institute Here An Earth Science Institute for 64 junior high school teachers and a Physics Institute for 22 high school teachers will be open this summer at A&M under National Science Foundation sponsorship. C. M. Loyd, NSF coordinator at A&M, emphasized applications must be received by Feb. 15. Announced earlier were four other porgrams for school or col lege teachers with total openings for 90 teachers. The Earth Science Institute, di rected by Dr. Melvin C. Schroeder of the geology faculty, is planned for science teachers in the seventh, eighth and ninth grades. The first term begins June 1 and the second opens July 13 with a field trip planned each session. The Physics Institute begins June 1 and will run for nine week’s covering the basic concepts and fundamental principles of physics. The institute under the dirction of Dr. Nelson M. Dul ler is intended for teachers who plan to introduce the Physical Science Study Committee (PSSC) program or are seriously investi gating the advantages of intro ducing it. Participants in either program may earn graduate credit. All will receive a stipend from the National Science Foundation. Graduate Conclave Is Series 9 Fourth “Computer Simulation of Ge netic Principles” is the subject of A&M University’s fourth pro gram in a series of Graduate Colloquia this school year. Graduate Dean Wayne C. Hall said the program is set for 4 p.m. Jan. 15 in the Architecture Building. He said the colloquia series which began Oct. 31, covers major activities underway at the uni versity. They provide opportunity for researchers in the many areas of graduate study to exchange ideas and learn something of the progress made by other workers. The genetics discussion will be led by Dr. John D. Williams, re search statistician in the Data Processing Center. He said areas to be covered are basic or Mendelian genetics, com puter simulation of genetic con cepts, and interpretation of com puter information.

Involved in projects to aid needy people, were Legget Hall, Hart Hall athletes, Hart Hall civilians, Puryear Hall and Walton Hall. Leggett Hall requested names of deserving boys from the princi pal of Lincoln High School of Col lege Station. The boys received needed clothing and were taken to dinner in Sbisa Dining Hall. The Hart Hall athletes and civil ians chose their janitor as the the target for their gifts and holiday greetings. After obtaining the names of needy families in the community from Bennie Zinn, director of stu dent affairs, Walton Hall and Puryear Hall distributed clothes and food to them. “I feel that our program was conducted in such a way that no one was embarrassed and that all involved profited from the ex perience,” said Ronald Reel, chair man of the presidents council. THE BATTALION Friday, January 10, 1964 College Station, Texas Page 3 Automation, Data Processing Invade Engineering Graphics Automation is invading the en gineering graphics or drawing field although it is much too ear ly to tell the full impact, B. F. K. Mullins, a professor in the Depart ment of Engineering Graphics, said Thursday. “Automation in Graphics” was his subject for a session of the Midwinter Meeting of the Division of Engineering Graphics of the American Society of Engineering Educators. The meeting on cam pus included a field trip to Hous ton Wednesday. The session ends Friday. More than 160 persons from col leges throughout the nation have registered. Professor B. L. Wellman of the Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts is presiding as the engineering graphics division. Professor William E. Street, who heads the Department of Engi neering Graphics, is local chair man. THE ENGINEERING EDUCA TORS devoted Thursday afternoon to the broad field of automation with papers and demonstrations by several persons. “I’m sure there will be radical changes, but it is difficult to say how soon these changes will be made in the years ahead,” Mul lins said.

Dr. Ruth P. Lehmann, English Professor at the University of Texas, will speak on “The Scholar Housewife.” She held an A.A.U.W. grant in 1953 when doing research be trained in graphics,” he point ed out. Plotters linked with data pro cessing machines or computers can produce a variety of engineering drawings, a conference demonstra tion by California Computer Products, Inc., showed. The unit demonstrated, including cost of the computer, was valued at ap proximately $25,000. at the University of Dublin. A.A.U.W. fellowship funds are provided by bequests, grants, me morial gifts and contributions from local chapters of the as sociation. Since 1890 these funds have been used to encourage wo men to go on to advanced study. In 1963-64 fellowships were awarded to 59 American women and to 37 women from other countries.

We don’t know. But we do know that nothing is impossible. Central Texas In fact, Jesus tells us that all things are possible with God. He wants us to understand that God is infinite power, as well as infinite love. The foolishness of men cannot affect God’s plans for the universe, or His love for each one of us. Faith is what we need . . . faith in the certainties upon which the Chris tian Church is founded. When we put our lives in God’s hands, there is no need to view the future with doubt or dread.
