Profs Career
Influenced By
Bright Student
Dr. John J. Sperry, biology pro
fessor at A&M University, has
been named by one of his former
summer high school program stu
dents as the “one person who has
been most influential in the devel
opment of my career.”
The student is Nathan Gerald
Isgur, 16, of 1309 Avenue J in
South Houston.
Isgur attended A&M last sum
mer on a National Science Foun
dation program for exceptional
ability high school students. He
has since been selected to the Hon
ors group in the 23rd annual
Science Talent Search for the
Westinghouse Science Scholarships
and Awards for 1964.
WHILE AT A&M, Isgur studied
under Sperry, Dr. Fred A. Gardner
of the Poultry Science Department
and Dr. W. V. Robertson, Depart
ment of Biological Sciences.
Isgur’s work at A&M led to the
research paper, “Bacterial Identifi
cation Through Characteristic
Electrophoretic Patterns,” which
won his election to the Honors
Group.
“Nathan, the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Moses A. Isgur, is a remark
ably talented young man, and we
hope he decides to come back to
A&M,” Sperry said.
HE SAID THE STUDENT, in
addition to particiapting in many
student and community activities,
was in the upper 1 per cent of his
class last year.
The annual Science Talent
Search is administered by Science
Service through the Science Clubs
of America. The Search is financed
by the Westinghouse Educational
Foundation, an organization en
dowed by the Westinghouse Elec
tric Corporation for promotion of
education and science.
Sperry is director of the Na
tional Science Foundation’s biolo
gy program for high school stu
dents of A&M.

The School of Engineering re

Hackney, a member of the Engi

University, trains craftmen how to
teach their skills and knowledge
to others. His classroom is set up
anywhere in Texas where the need
arises.
But a glance around the Hack

Hackney is elated over the hand
made furniture.
In the Early-American styled

Hackney-made additions include a

maple. A mahogany bookcase-
desk - sterio combination almost
covers one wall.
THE WALLS, in addition, are
covered with other early American
furnishings made in the outdoor
shop, which, incidentally, is guard
ed by a pet crow.
Hackney referred to his wood
working efforts as a means of
“keeping in shape for teaching,”
which is necessary when his stu
dents are actually teachers.
His woodworking days date back
25 years, although much of the
current furnishings are less than
three-years-old. Most of his pro
ducts are made from maple.
THE EXCEPTIONS include a
17-foot inboard boat and—-of all
things—a weight reducer for “his
friends. The apparatus looks
the same as those found in depart
ment stores.
With the EES, Hackney and
other staff members travel
throughout Texas for teaching
purposes. When he sees some
thing that could improve his teach
ing techniques, he makes sketches
of the object on paper and dupli
cates it at home.
He holds a bachelor’s degree
from Baylor and master’s from
A&M and is working toward a
doctorate. A former Waco public
school teacher, Hackney spent 10
years with the Texas Education
Agency before coming to A&M

He feels his “hobby” work must
meet the “most critical eye” since
high standards are emphasized in
his vocational industrial classes
for teachers.
“Every person should have a
hobby,” Hackney added. “It’s very
relaxing, especially if your wife
is on the out with you,” Hackney
added.
His next project ? Hackney didn’t
say, but his wife was checking
one of the doors in their modern
house that didn’t fit right.

USDA Economist
Returns To TTI
As Researcher
Dr. William G. Adkins, a U. S.
Department of Agriculture econo
mist at A&M University since
1961, has rejoined the A&M Texas
Transportation Institute as a re
search economist.
The announcement was made by
Charles J. Keese, TTI executive
officer. Adkins was a member of
the TTI staff from 1955 until 1961
when he joined the USDA.
“Dr. Adkins is an outstanding
research specialist in the highway
economics field,” Keese said, in
making the announcement. “We
are extremely pleased to have him
rejoin our staff.”
Adkins will he project super
visor of a study involving time
and money saved by commercial
motor vehicle operators through
use of improved highways. The
National Cooperative Highway Re
search Program will sponsor the
study.
Author of numerous reports
dealing with economic effects of
highway improvement, Adkins
holds three degrees from A&M, in
cluding a recent doctorate in agri
cultural economics.

Broiler Industry Increases
Over Past Quarter Century
By MIKE JACKSON
Special Writer
During the last 25 years the
American public has witnessed
many technological advances. These
advances have been evident in all
American industries. In the field
of agriculture there have been
many improvements, but none
stand out as much as the improve
ments in the chicken industry.
DR. J. H. QUISENBERRY, the
head of the Department of Poultry
Science said, “In a 25 year span
the broiler industry has came up
from raising 68 million birds to
the two billion birds they are now
producing.”
Dr. Quisenberry implied there
have been many problems to deal
with in raising the chicken indus
try from what it was 25 years
ago. In raising two billion broilers
for a year’s consumption the
breeder must have a large supply
of laying hens, and these birds
must be selected and raised dif
ferently than the bird used for
consumption.
TO PRODUCE A good laying
hen, the producer wants her to be
held back from reaching full sex
ual maturity, said Quisenberry. It
has been learned that if the laying
hen is given more time to develop,
she will produce larger eggs.
A common question is “What dif
ference does the size of egg have
to do with the farmer?” If the
egg is not large enough the farmer
cannot afford to raise this bird
for meat and will have to sell the
egg as an egg. If the egg would
have been large enough, he could
have hatched it and raised it for
consumption. This would mean
the difference of about 60# lost
on a dozen eggs as compared to
a dozen of chicks which would
have been sold to a feeding enter
prise.
Bryan Daily Eagle
Takes Six Places
The Bryan Daily Eagle is one
of the best small town papers in
the state of Texas if the de
cision of The Texas Associated
Press Managing Editors news
contest is any measure.
The Eagle carried off six
awards including one first, two
seconds and three honorable
mentions in the contest held in
Austin during the past weekend.
The first place award went to
(Louise Pairett for page one
make-up.
Second place was taken by
Jack Graeme, a former Aggie,
for short features.
John West, sports editor of
the paper, was responsible for
the largest amount of the
awards as he walked off with
three honorable mentions.
THERE ARE two ways to pre
vent the chicken from reaching
sexual maturity. Dr. Quisenberry
stated that the first is to keep
the amount of feed limited so
that the chicken can just get bare
ly enough to stay healthy. The
main problem here lies in the
fact that the bigger chicks will
push the smaller ones away, thus
causing a higher mortality rate,
and extra employees will he needed
to keep out the right amount of
feeds.
The second type of program is
to feed the chickens low concen
trate feeds, in which the chicken
can eat all she wants. The prob
lem here lies in the additional
cost for feed, since she will not
receive enough calories to develop
herself completely, she is con
stantly eating.
