Don’t get the idea that the ter-
, firma is too firm,'Dr. Yaacov
[. Bentor, a noted geologist from
srael commented.
The earth is trembling and quiv-
iring almost constantly as a result
if earthquakes, most too slight
’or man to notice without sensitive
iquipment.

Bentor, professor of mineralogy
md petrology at Hebrew Universi-
;y in Israel, is at A&M Universi-
;y for a series of lectures through
friday, including one Thursday
light geared for the public.
Major quakes, Bentor said, are
isually proceeded by smaller ones,
ilthough the matter of forecasting
major earth tremors remains a
iroblem for future scientists to
solve.
Above ground studies have been
made for centuries, but the deepest
irobe into the earth’s crust has
ieen only five miles. Bentor feels
many probes should be made.
In National Competition
Six Ag-g-ie marketing- majors will be on the right Thomas Disinger, Kenneth Scott, In-
Michigan State University campus April 17- structor Robert James Jr, Chris Schaezler,
18 for the final round in the national inter- Theodore Kolkhorst, Associate Professor
collegiate marketing competition. Left to Herbert Thompson, and Norman Mayer.
What man thinks of as the terra
firma is nothing but a thin crust,
subject to change by terrific in
ternal pressure erupting from the
earth’s core.
Bentor said the earth’s crust can
ie compared to the skin of an
apple. When something has to
give, the thin mantle cracks.
“When a large rock mass breaks,
the pressure is released through
the earth’s mantel,” Bentor said.
The ultimate results of the earth-
juake is known, the professor said,
although what causes the strain
to build up is largely theory.
‘Social Dynamite 9
The “social dynamite” of almost
one-third of America’s children
coming from a culturally poor en
vironment is perhaps the greatest
problem facing the nation’s educa
tional system, a noted educator
said Monday at A&M University.
Dr. T. M. Stinnett of the Nation
al Education spoke to faculty and
graduate students of the teacher
education departments, and area
school officials.
“I suspect the number one prob
lem is what we’re going to do about
the education of slum children,”
he said.
These are “children of all races”
who due to social background
“start behind and never catch up
educationally,” Stinnett continued.
“They’ve never seen a book or a
magazine before they come to
school.”

Dean Hall Completes Term
As Grad Association Prexy
A&M University Graduate Dean
Wayne C. Hall presided at the
twelfth annual meeting of the
Association of Texas Graduate
Schools in Dallas to complete his
term as president of the 33-grad-
uate school member association.
Written Plans
Mean Survival
From Disaster
Your family can survive fallout
from a nuclear attack if your plans
are carefully worked out. A writ
ten plan can often mean the dif
ference between an emergency and
a catastrophe.
In early America, every family
had a survival plan. When a fire,
flood or Indian attack threatened,
each person had a job. Natural
disasters still occur and the pos
sibility of a nuclear war or a nu
clear accident poses additional
threats.
A good farmer, homemaker or
business will set goals and plan
ahead to meet problems and make
the best of each opportunity. Fire,
accident and other insurance is
bought in the hope that it will
not be needed. Survival insurance
in case of disaster is no different.
The Agricultural Extension Ser
vice has designed a form, ESP,
MP-666 to help families complete
their emergency plans. It includes
daytime locations of family mem
bers, how the community will be
warned, assignment of duties to
family members, shelter plans, how
the family will take shelter when
separated, listing of shelter sup
plies and equipment and training
courses which are available.
A good family plan is based on
the local community plan, moni
toring and warning systems and
school and plans.
The Farm Survival Plan which
includes sheltering of dairy and
breeding cattle, protection for sur
plus feed, water and emergency
power supply is available for rural
people.
Both forms are available from
your county agricultural agent or
home demonstration agent.
Elected to succeed Dean Hall as
president was Dean J. N. Gerber
of Stephen F. Austin State Col
lege.
Recent developments in Texas
graduate schools and pressing
problems in graduate work were
discussed at the Dallas meeting
Thursday.
