Better Working Conditions,
Customer Service Offered
Better service for the customers and improved work
ing- conditions for the employes top the news of the A&M
Laundry, Manager J. H. Kingcaid Sr. said.
“We’ve got one of the finest laundries in the United
States, and that’s what people who visit us say,” King
caid said proudly. The appreciative comments concerning
the laundry come from visiting laundry owners and opera
tors.
Improved shirt packing has drawn a good response
from customers and has been started without raising prices
despite the additional cost, Kingcaid said.
The cardboard shell which protects a stack of launder
ed shirts, plus “a good deal of time” make it more ex
pensive to pack shirts in the new manner, but Kingcaid
foresees no increase in prices. And laundry prices have
been raised only once since 1946 when Kingcaid came here
to take over management.
54 Years Experience
Kingcaid has devoted 54 years to providing good laun
dry service and worked mainly for hotels and hotel chains
before coming to A&M. He also had a stint of supervising
the installation of laundry plants and putting them into
operation. Thus he knows laundries inside-out for he was
only 10 years old and a schoolboy in Cleburne when he
began working with his brothers.
Pride in the A&M laundry and its some 160 employes —
the number fluctuates widely during the year — is a corn
erstone of Kingcaid’s personality.
Just now he’s especially proud of canopies installed
over the large ironers which iron sheets and other large
items.
“These hoods give us a better ironing job, faster pro
duction and also help make it a little cooler for the workers,”
Kingcaid said.
Also installed to improve working conditions for a
number of employes are cooling ducts placed over the
positions where garments are ironed.
“Instead of being over 100 degrees, it’s under 90 de
grees,” the laundry manager said.
Some 20,000 to 25,000 shirts are laundered weekly
with as much of the work automated as possible. But
it is still lots of hot labor.

Wildlife Managements Buffs
Give Close Look To Lizard
Graduate students in Wildlife
Management here are about ready
to change the name of the fence
lizard to the tree lizard.
Three students conducted a 72-
hour research problem over the
weekend involving the sceloporus
undulatus or fence lizard. Most
surprising was the fact that the
lizard under scrutiny spent more
than half that time in a tree or
bush.
“We were under the impression
that the lizards spent most of their
time on the ground. But this liz
ard spent most of Saturday 20 to
2 5-feet off the ground on a tree
limb,” project director Jack Meyer
reported.
The students banded the lizard
with a five millimeter length of
radioactive gold for checking with
a geiger counter and released him
in the range and forestry area
near Easterwood Airport. They
checked him every hour with the
geiger counter and sometimes with
binoculars when he was “treed.”
Meyer said the lizard was banded
with Gold 198, which has a short
half-life of radioactivity which
disentegrates in about two and a
half days.
Psychology Group
Elects Officers
Dick Conolly was elected presi
dent of the Student Psychological
Association at a recent meeting.
Other officers for the year are
Fred Forrest, vice president and
treasurer; Pat Laird, secretary;
Charles Pantalion, senior repre
sentative to the Arts and Sciences
Council; Dickie Harris, junior re
presentative to the Arts and Sci
ences Council, and Alex Quisen-
berry, social chairman.
Now Meyer and his coharts are
looking for a strip of tantalum,
which has a half-life of more than
100 days. With this strip of gold,
they could check the lizard for
nearly a year in regard to hiberna
tion, range, habitat, etc.
“We won’t have to check the
lizard as often in research of this
type. Just about anytime the
weather changes we will check
on him,” Meyer said.
Other than learning more about
the lizard, the students hope to per
fect a method of following or find
ing animals. Little research has
been done along this line, Meyer
explained.
The researchers plan to write
their findings for publication in a
scientific journal.
Meyer’s aides include Pat O’
Brien of Lubbock and Hanley
Smith of St. Petersburg, Florida.
Meyer hails from Indianapolis, In
diana.
