Chemistry Dept.
Receives Keys
To Data Unit
A&M University’s Department of
Chemical Engineering Tuesday re
ceived the keys to a mobile data
gathering unit, built to sell for
$100,000.
Dresser Controls of Houston
donated the custom designed unit
to A&M officials at a 11 a.m.
ceremony Tuesday at the Houston
plant, 10201 Westheimer Road.
Among those participating in the
dedication were W. F. Haley,
general manager of the Houston
firm, and Dr. J. D. Lindsey, head
of A&M’s chemical engineering
program.
The mobile unit, known as a
process dynamics recorder and
similar to a moving van, houses a
wide assortment of electronic
equipment capable of receiving
and recording data at a fast clip.
“This equipment from Dresser,
along with some we already have,
will permit our students to test
classroom theories,” Leo D. Dur
bin, an assistant professor of
chemical engineering, explained.
Durbin, a Ph.D. graduate of Rice
University, will be responsible for
the operation of the equipment at
A&M. His background experience
includes asignments with industry,
in addition to teaching and re
search at A&M.
For several years, A&M has
offered instruction in automatic
controls for process industries,
which is required of senior chemi
cal engineering majors.
The equipment from Dresser,
along with new purchases through
the National Science Foundation,
will help establish an undergrad
uate laboratory for instruction in
automatic control by instrumenta
tion.
“The laboratory will augment
and extend the activities in this
constantly developing technology,”
Lindsey said. “The students will
be able to simulate chemical pro
cesses used in industry.”
The Dressed unit includes an
analog recorder, an analog-digital
converter, a paper tape punch, a
multiplexer or sender of data and
low-frequency signal generation
equipment.
Durbin said the mobile unit will
be located outside the new labora
tory, where the instruments can
be coordinated with present labora
tory equipment.
At the same time, the unit can
easily be made mobile, allowing
students to go to different indus
tries to gather data for problem
solving exercises.
Scholarsh ips
For Ag Fish
Sets Record
A record 130 high school grad
uates will be attending A&M this
fall on scholarships provided by
the university’s Opportunity
Awards Program, Dean W. J.
Graff announced.
More than $150,000 worth of
new four-year scholarships have
been awarded, Dr. Graff, dean of
instruction and chairman of the
faculty committee on scholarships,
reported.
Other students will receive spe

The opportunity awards, valued

ness corporations, foundations and
individuals. Scholarships under the
program were first granted 18
years ago.
Each recipient receives $250 to
$500 annually, plus part-time em
ployment provided by the universi
ty if needed by the award winner.
