The Ralston Purina Teaching Award of
$1000 and a plaque were presented to Dr.
Cecil B. Ryan an associate professor in the
Department of Poultry Science at the re
cent Poultry Science Association annual
meeting at the University of Minnesota.
A&M Prof Honored
In the photograph, left to right, are Dr.
J. L. Millican of Purina, Dr. Ryan and Dr.
Edward G. Buss of Pennsylvanian State
University, chairman of the Teaching
Award Committee.
J. Wayne Stark, director of the
Memorial Student Center, has been
appointed to a three-year term on
the International Relations Com
mittee of the Association of Col
lege Unions International. He pre
viously served as president of the
association and on various impor
tant committees.
The association is currently cele
brating its golden anniversary. Its
purpose is to provide an opportun
ity for unions throughout the world
to join in studying and improving
their services, and to assist in the
development of new college unions,
Stark said.

Delane E. Welsch, a Nebras
kan, has joined the Department
of Agricultural Economics and
Sociology as an assistant profes
sor.
Dr. R. E. Patterson, dean of
the College of Agriculture, said
Welsch will conduct research on
livestock and farm organization
in East Texas.
The economist received his
BS and MS degrees from the
University of Nebraska. He
spent two years at Michigan
State University studying for
the PhD degree, and the past
year in Nigeria, West Africa,
collecting data and writing his
dissertation on economics of the
rice industry in that country.
★★★
The appointment of Dr. Teddy
J. Hirsch as associate head of the
Structural Research Department
of the Texas Transportation Insti
tute has been announced by Charles
J. Keese, executive officer of the
Institute.
Hirsch received his BS; MS and
Ph.D. degrees in civil engineering
from A&M. He has conducted
major research projects involving
concrete piles and lightweight con
crete in cooperative work of the
Institute with the Texas Highway
Department and the Department of
Commerce’s Bureau of Public
Roads.
★★★
The College of Veterinary
Medicine has two new faculty
members.
They are Dr. William Earl
Berkley, formerly of the Uni
versity of California, and Dr.
Jerry Don Bell, radiology in
structor.
Dr. Berkley, a 1963 graduate
of A&M, is an instructor in
large animal clinics.
Bell has returned to the De
partment of Veterinary Parasi
tology after a year’s leave spent
at the University of Minnesota,
where he worked toward a doc
toral degree.

27 separate sections of pavement
that differ in materials and thick
ness fo layers. Bids are now being
received for its construction.
Upon completion of the facility,
research crews supervised by Frank
H. Scrivner, head of the Depart
ment of Pavement Design, will use
machine known as the Shell
Vibrator to gather data. Employing
seismic principles, the machine in
troduces vibrations into the pave
ment at various frequencies and
then measures the wave length of
the resulting surface wave, Scriv
ner said. The wave lengths are
function of variables involving
thickness and elastic properties of
the base, subbase, and subgrade of
the roadway.
The new facility will enable the
researchers to test flexible pave
ments of different designs under
more exacting conditions in one
place in conducting research to
determine the best pavements for
Texas in a cooperative investiga
tion with the Texas Highway De
partment; Department of Com
merce, Bureau of Public Roads;
and the Highway Research Board.
The researchers have had to
travel to various parts of the state
to find pavements of certain de
signs and to test them by brake-
up and sampling means which
were destructive to the highway
and caused inconvenience and main
tenance. In such cases thickness
of layers have not always been
exact and other conditions have
varied. Now all work will be
under ideal laboratory conditions
with opportunities for constant
comparison and review, Scrivner
pointed out.
The research makes use of statis
tical and calculational technology
that has resulted from cooperation
with the Institute of Statistics.
industrial education whose special
interest is driver education.
“I think its going to require
an entirely new concept of driving,
the professor said of high-speed
driving in the future.
And 100 mile-an-hour travel also
is going to be more expensive.
Everything from highway con
struction to equipment within the
autos is involved, Hawkins said.
The professor who is responsi
ble for the driver education in
structor program at A&M has
served as a consultant and modera
tor of a number of national driver
edducation programs.
“I don’t believe that within 10
years will have much roadway
suitable for 100 mile an hour driv
ing, but I think that in 20 years
such driving will be common,”
Hawkins predicted.
He cited driver’s “seeing habits”
as among the necessary changes
in driving concepts as speeds move
upward. Too many drivers even
now do not watch for develop
ments far enough ahead of their
own car, he said.
“I think another thing this high
er speed will do is to make neces
sary illustrations and sketches,
posted so the drivers know what
they are getting into as they ap
proach an intersection,” Hawkins
cintinued.
“I think these changes also are
going to mean the periodic
freshing of drivers. It may even
come to the point we issue dif
ferent types of licenses,” Haw
kins said. He explained that
“superior license” might be is
sued to safer drivers who complete
regular, periodic refresher courses
The professor believes “a lot
of speeding” by drivers nowadays
is due to lack of information. He
cited as an example that rain
on a highway means autos lose
one-third to one-half of their trac
tion.
