Watermelon Eaters
To Count Blessings
Dedicated watermelon eaters
may soon find themselves with no
seeds to spit.
To most melon consumers it
will be a blessing. But to fun-
minded youngsters, such a develop
ment might be considered akin to
eating an apple without going
through the apple core-Baltimore
routine.

THE SAFE WAY to stay alert
without harmful stimulants
NoDoz keeps you mentally
alert with the same safe re
fresher found in coffee and
tea. Yet NoDoz is faster,
handier, more reliable. Abso
lutely not habit-forming.
Next time monotony makes
you feel drowsy while driving,
working or studying, do as
millions do . . . perk up with
safe, effective NoDoz tablets.
Another fine product of Grove Laboratories.
However, science marches on, and
A&M University horticulturists
believe they have a successful seed
less watermelon just over the re
search horizon.
Mack Fuqua, assistant professor
of horticulture, says a good quality
melon of this type will become a
reality within five years, maybe two
years. Lower priced seed for re
lease to commercial seed producers
also should become available during
that period.
By good quality, Fuqua mean
a melon that is sweet and crisp, is
productive from the farmer’s stand
point and ships without excessive
bruising and breaking. All this
and no seeds, too, is a tall order.
Actually, larruping seedless mel
ons can already be grown, but they
still lack a few of the qualities
horticulturists think they should
have. At least one company is in
this kind of seed business.
And right at this point, Fuqua
wants to emphasize that A&M has
no seed available other than for
its own research use. He sug
gests that the American Seedless-
Watermelon Seed Corporation,
Goshen, Ind., be queried on the
subject.
The cost will run about $2 for
20 seed. Prices taper off when
higher quantities are bought but
are still high. This is the main
reason more commercial growers
have not tried the melons.

NEW TELEVISION LAB AT A&M
Jim Parks, left, zooms in on skull held by Norvell W. Northcutt.
Faculty, Students To Benefit
From Use Of Modern Aids
A&M University education and
psychology faculty and students
benefit from Educational Media
Laboratory with everything from a
television camera to models of the
human nerve cell.
Students visit the laboratory
after classroom studies to examine
and use items of the equipment.
The A&M University Personnel
Office in the YMCA Building is
offering a series of secretarial
development courses this semester.
Clark C. Munroe, director of
personnel, said the sessions are
conducted every week Monday
through Thursday from 1 to 5 p.m.
Mrs. Peggy Loveland, who is
directing the course, said areas
covered in class meetings include
methods to increase efficiency and
skills in typing and taking dicta
tion, proper dress and manner,
telephone techniques, familiariza
tion with forms, and care and
Some equipment is taken into the
classroom.
“These aids make a teacher able
to do much more, to be more pro
ductive,” Professor Douglas F.
Parry said. Organization of the
new laboratory became possible
because of an increased budget
for equipment, plus the additional
operation of office equipment.
“Mrs. Loveland was, until recent
ly, responsible for selection and
training women officers for the
U. S. Marine Corps,” Munroe
pointed out. “She is a graduate
of Carson - Newman College in
Tennessee and has had extensive
experience in training and de
velopment programs.”
Mrs. Loveland said persons eli
gible for the program are women
employees of A&M with the grade
of stenographer or clerk typist.
Anyone interested should talk to
the head of their department.
space in the Department of Educa
tion and Phychology’s new quar
ters.
“We think that we can teach
more in less time through the use
of these resources,” Dr. Parry said.
He cites as an example “a few
minutes of film” containing the
essential points of classroom ob
servation.
A&M already ranks among the
top three producers of male teach
ers in the state. The university
has a steadily increasing enroll
ment of education and psychology
students, Dr. Paul Hensarling, head
of the department, pointed ont.
“I think one of the principal
reasons for having television equip
ment here in the media laboratory
is so our students will be among
the best trained when they go into
a school system using the newer
teaching resources,” Hensarling
said.
“Some professors from other de
partments,” Hensarling said,
“have used the laboratory, prin
cipally in the production of teach
ing materials and to investigate
new equipment as teaching aids.”
I Vaden Joins 1
I EES Staff I
I As Instructor 1
Lloyd L. Vaden, retired Army
lieutenant colonel, has joined the
Engineering Extension Service at
A&M University as an instructor
in civil defense training.
His appointment was announced
by H. D. Bearden, EES director,
and Dr. W. R. Bodine, CD co
ordinator.
A native of Dallas, Vaden will
assist with instruction during
statewide conferences for public
officials, radiological monitoring
courses and shelter management
classes.
Vaden retired from the army
last November after 25 years of
military duty which included com
bat in Europe during World War
II and Korea. In September, 1943,
he was captured in Italy when
wounded by the Germans.
A lieutenant at the time, he was
a prisoner in Poland and Germany
until liberated by the Russian ar
my in 1945. He received a Combat
Infantryman Badge, the Bronze
Star with oak leaf cluster, Purple
Heart Medal and other campaign
and service medals during World
War II.
In the Korean conflict Vaden
served primarily as commander
of a heavy mortar company, which
provided direct support for the
17th Infantry Regiment of the 7th
Division. He received other med
als, including the Combat Infan
tryman Badge.
His other military assignments
included command of various units,
teaching and training duties. A
graduate of North Dallas High
School, Vaden also attended the
University of Maryland.
Vaden is married and has two
children, Vicki, 18, and Len, 8.
Common Sense
Prevents Liability
Plain, ordinary common sense
plays a major part in avoiding
“exposures” to liability in the
aerial application business, a Min
nesota attorney said here Tuesday
at the 13th annual Texas Agri
cultural Aviation Conference.
L. L. Schroeder of Schroeder
and Nelson in Minneapolis told
about 300 conference members
that the law usually looks with
favor on the “prudent man.”
