They are John A. Lipe, San Benito, and Glendon D. Womble, Blue Ridge. Meat Researcher Honored Dr. Sylvia Cover, professor of home economics and meats researcher for 29 years at A&M University, shows the plaque awarded her during the recent National Live Stock and Meat Board annual meeting in Chicago. The plaque cites her “distinguished achievement in the field of meats research.” With Dr. Cover are Dr. H. O. Kunkel, left, associate director of the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station, and Dr. O. D. Butler, head of the A&M Animal Husbandry Department. Health Service Grant Received A&M University’s Water Re sources Institute will receive a U. S. Public Health Service re search grant of $65,245, Dr. R. E. Patterson, dean of the College of Agriculture, announced Monday. The grant is one of three total ing $193,535 to the university from the Health Service, a division of the Department of Health, Edu cation and Welfare. The other grants went to the College of Agriculture. Dr. Ernest T. Smerdon, Water Resources Institute director, said the research concerns studies on the mechanics of movement of suspended solids in rivulets and small streams disturbed by in tense rainfall. “The purpose is to learn more about how suspended solids are transported from agricultural land to rivers and large bodies of water, where they may pollute these wa ter supplies,” Smerdon said.

Southwestern States Telephone The Texas Turkey Federation-f has granted A&M University $3,000 to study causes of down grading and condemnation of tur keys produced in the state. Federation members estimate three-fourths of a million dollars are lost each year from downgrad ing and condemnations. The grant was approved during a recent TTF board meeting. A sub-committee on quality control, headed by Earl Deacon of Grape vine, was appointed. Deacon is a producer and a director of TTF. Other committee members ap pointed were Dr. J. H. Quisenberry and Dr. Fred A. Gardner of the A&M Department of Poultry Sci ence; Dr. L. C. Grumbles, A&M College of Veterinary Medicine; George Draper of College Station, Consumer Cooperative Association; Bob Cooper of Marlin, manager of TexBest Turkey, Inc.; and Fred Hansen of Cuero, TTF president. Quisenberry, Grumbles and their co-workers will head the research program on condemnations and downgrading. Deacon said that even though Texas turkey quality is equal to that in other states, TTF directors feel that a statistical quality con trol program will produce higher quality birds and will increase producer income by reducing down grading and condemnations. He said several turkey processors have indicated interest and pledged their cooperation on the project.

If ... I had the right tools! 7/ ... I could apply just the right driv ing force! But my stone always splinters, shatters. It should he easier to shape the future. Tomorrow seems so formless, so pliable. Yet there are so many tools. Which to use? So many kinds of force, of power. Which will shape, not destroy, my hopes? I am realizing fast that the vital tools must be spiritual. My Church is training me to understand, to use them. And centuries of Christian heritage convince me that the driving force ought to be spiritual. A Power that flows from God ... is grasped by faith . . . and in the reverent hands of dedicated men will shape — rather than shat.er tomorrow. the church for all • all for the church The Church is the greatest factor on earth for the building of charac ter and good citizenship. It is a store house of spiritual values. Without a strong Church, neither democracy nor civilization can survive. There are four sound reasons why every person should attend services regu larly and support the Church. They are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For his children’s sake. (3) For the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the sake of the Church itself, which needs his moral and material support. Plan to go to church regu larly and read your Bible daily.
