Houston Conclave
Twelve College of Agriculture
officials and staff members will
participate in the 44th annual
Southern Regional Agricultural
Education Conference April 20-23
in Houston.
They are Dr. R. E. Patterson,
dean of Agriculture; Dr. G. M.
Watkins, director of Agricultural
Instruction and Dr. Earl Knebel,
head of the Agricultural Engineer
ing Department.
Others who will attend the meet
ing are Dr. Earl S. Webb, Dr. O.
M. Holt, John Holcomb, Bob Jaska,
Bill Irick, Bill Jackson, Paul Jen
kins and Tom Alvis, all of the
Agricultural Education Depart
ment.
Patterson will talk on the “Role
of the College Agriculture in Pro
viding Assistance to the Voca
tional Agriculture Program.”
Watkins will discuss “Curriculum
Needs for Educational Leaders in
Agriculture,” and Hobgood’s topic
is “Engineering’s Stake in Farm
Mechanics.”
Twelve southern and south
eastern states will be represented
at the conference. The theme is
“Implementing the Breakthrough
in Agricultural Education—A new
Challenge.”

Summer Training
Advanced German students at
A&M now study from a textbook
printed personally by their profes
sor.
Dr. E. C. Breitenkamp’s 50 stu
dents of fourth semester German
will use the new softbound book
for the remainder of this year.
“The books available through
normal channels are rather out of
date,” Dr. Breitenkamp explained
last week as students began read
ing from the specially-printed
books.
Dr. Breitenkamp now has a col
lection of type for printing in
French, German and Spanish. He
can “fix up” accent marks to allow
printing in any language using the
Roman alphabet.
THE BOOK for his students is
by far his largest project.
The more than 20,000 words in
the book were set by hand. Print
ing nowadays is almost entirely
from type set by machines.
Ease of rapid travel to any
part of the world, along with more
major projects of complex engi
neering design and construction,
will increase the number of engi
neers working in foreign lands.
The prediction of M. J. Shelton
of San Diego, Calif., came at the
final session of the Texas Section,
American Society of Civil Engi
neers here Friday.
An ASCE vice-president, Shel
ton outlined the services the na
tional organization provides mem
bers and called on delegates “to
help provide a close liaison” with
other engineering groups.
Thirteen veteran members were
presented life memberships in the
state association, and Arlington
State College received a plaque for
the best attendance record at stu
dent meetings the past year.
Amarillo was selected as the
site of the Oct. 1-3 meeting. The
Texas Section of ASCE holds two
sessions each year.
Shelton said almost 50 percent
of the national association’s $1.9-
million budget is used for mem
bership publications.
“With more members going over
seas and a rapid growth in mem
bership, a more extensive publica
tion program is being undertaken,”
the ASCE official noted.
More than 100 Air Force Re
serve Officer Training Corps ca
dets at A&M will train this sum
mer at Air Force bases, Col. James
F. Starkey announced.
The professor of air science
said most cadets will go to either
James Connally Air Force Base
in Waco, or Webb Air Force Base
in Big Springs.
Half of the 114 Aggies will start
the four-week training June 14.
The balance reports July 26.
“Cadets at summer training
compete for honors and Texas
A&M cadets always earn a giant
share of these awards,” Starkey
said.
Summer training is primarily
for cadets who have completed
their junior year of studies. The
students will receive Air Force
commissions as second lieutenants
following graduation.
Army Cadets Take
Summer Training
At Fort Sill Camp
Approximately 200 A&M stu
dents will be among the 2,000
Army Reserve Officer Training
Corps cadets at Fort Sill Okla.,
June 20-July 31 for field training,
Col. D. L. Baker announced.
The training usually is com
pleted by the advanced, volunteer
cadets upon completion of their
junior year of studies.
“Summer camp,” Baker said,
“is the means to afford the ROTC
cadet an opportunity to partici
pate in an intensive period of
practical, individual and small unit
training, while concurrently de
veloping the physical and mental
characteristics of the junior of
ficer.”
Each cadet at summer camp is
observed closely throughout the
six-week period for his demonstra
tion of the traits of military lead
ership.
Aggies won a major share of
top honors at the 1963 camp.
“I THOUGHT if I could get
material with some reference to
Texas or of other interest to Texas
Aggies, it would be better than
what is available in books on the
market,” he said.
The project of selecting the ma
terial, editing it, setting the type
by hand and printing and assem
bling the 97-page book has oc
cupied Dr. Breitenkamp for al
most two years. He chose the
articles from the German news
paper Rheinischer Merkur pub
lished in Cologne.
THE ARTICLES are described
by the professor as “impressive
for the wealth of information they
contain and the clarity with which
this information is presented.”
A “roundup” of strayed cattle
on the edge of the East Zone of
Germany, rocketry at Fort Bliss
in El Paso and hunting are among
the subjects of the seven articles.
Printing has been Dr. Breiten
kamp’s hobby since 1949 when he
returned from service with the
U. S. Military Government in Ger
many.
“EVEN AS a child I was sort of
interested in printing, and when
I came back from Germany I just
happened to get hold of a press
and a little type and started print
ing stationery and stuff like that,”
he said.
D-3 Leader Win
Journalism Prize
Morris Ray Harris, Jr., a sen
ior from Sinton, won honora
ble mention honors in a nation
wide writing contest, sponsored
monthly by the William Ran
dolph Hearst Foundation.
Harris’ articles on the future
of the A&M Corps of Cadets
received honorable mention in
the March “investigative-inter
pretative” reporting competition.
Scrolls will be presented to
Harris and the A&M Depart
ment of Journalism by the
foundation.
