IN NEW ZEALAND
WELLINGTON, N. Z. Off*) —

DOUBTING THOMAS?
HOPEFUL AGNOSTIC?
Christianity has more to offer than hope, it has positive
proof in the form of a MIRACLE which was foretold,
described and is intensely personal. Ask the Religious
Leaders or send me a card marked ESP-17. My reply is

MAKE WASHING YOUR CAR
A Treat For A Change!
YES! With the full customer convenience services
offered at Travel Kleen and U-WASH-M, washing
your car can be a delightful relief from the drudgery
that washing cars used to be.
Warm 120° Water (clear or soapy, as you like it),
500 lbs. of pressure, and roomy 20 feet wide stalls
make washing cars (and other things) no drudgery
at all.
But, its the little Extras that really count in service,
like the 59^ synthetic chamois (reusable & reuseable)
available to our customers only for 25^, and our free
white wall spot cleaner.
You don’t think it can be fun? But, you haven’t
heard the punch line yet:

Famed animal scientist Dr. Jan C. Bonsma will speak ait
the Dairyman’s Short Course scheduled for Thursday and
Friday in the MSC. His method of judging fertility of cat

Mohole Project Report Set
A report of Project Mohole
planned to drill to record depths
will be made Thursday. Speaking
to a civil engineering department
faculty and graduate student sym
posium will be Donald M. Taylor
of Houston, public information of
ficer for the project as a Brown
& Root, Inc. employe.
The symposium is scheduled at
4 p.m. in the Civil Engineering
Lecture Room, announced Dr.
Charles H. Samson Jr., department
head.
Project Mohole is funded and di
rected by the National Science
Foundation with Brown & Root as
contractor.
Plans call for drilling through
the earth’s crust and into the man
tle, an 1800-mile thick layer of
rock. The findings will aid sci
entists in many ways.
Drilling will be done from a
stabilized platform in the ocean
with basic design of this system
reported virtually complete. Pro
totype models of new drilling tools
have been tested recently in the
Uvalde area. Drilling is expected
to require three years.
Taylor was a free-lance writer
and editorial consultant for a num
ber of oil industry publications be
fore assuming his present post in
July. He also has been an inde

iOffered In Record Numbers!
A record number of fellowships
and assistantships for graduate
study at A&M is being offered for

Hall announced. He said the fig
ure represents a continuing trend
for A&M and the nation of in
creased emphasis upon studies be
yond the bachelor’s degree.
The financial support totaling
about $1,000,000 is from varied
governmental and private sources.
Master’s degrees may be earned

A gmup of agricultural ex
perimenters, in cooperation with
‘Lame Duck’
May Be Gone
The dread that students have of
returning from Christmas vaca
tions to “cram” for upcoming finals
may be alleviated within two years.
Discussing the school calendar,
Dr. William J. Graff, dean of in
struction, said that the “lame
duck” period after Christmas vaca
tions might be avoided if the tradi
tional calendar could be altered.
Moving up the finals before
Christmas vacations would neces
sitate an earlier opening of the
fall semester. Traditionally, pri
mary and secondary schools opened
after Labor Day, but since they
have begun moving away from this
custom to an earlier opening, col
leges and universities could make
similar adjustments. Although a
semester of 80 working days is
desirable, a 75 day semester from
Sept. 1 to Dec. 23 would suffice,
he said. The spring semester
would then start two weeks later.
Dean Graff said that the change
was, “on the horizon,” perhaps in
one or two years. He regards
the proposed change as “an im
provement.”
the Hercules Powder Company
have been working on the prob
lem of herbicide drift.
The project is headed by Rob
ert Hass, assistant professor in
the Department of Range and
Forestry.
Herbicide drift is the move
ment of very fine droplets of
spray in the air which can be
harmful if they settle on crops.
The researchers are trying to
control mesquite and post oak.
“The main problem with spary-
ing is controlling the size of
spray droplets. This has a di
rect affect on the amount of
drift,” said Stan K. Lehman,
co-worker in the project.

Daniel L. Hollis Jr., on faculty
leave from the University of Ala
bama, has been awarded a Na
tional Science Foundation Fellow
ship for doctoral wrok at A&M.
The fellowship, valued at ap
proximately $3,600, is for an eight-
month period ending in August,
1965. To qualify for the fellow
ship, candidates must be college
professors in engineering or sci
ence and have at least' three years
teaching experience.
Hollis is working on a theory
project in plasma research as his
dissertation for a doctorate in nuc
lear engineering. He holds two
masters degrees from Alabama—
an M.A. in mathematics and an
M.S. in physics—and a bachelor
of science degree from the U. S.
Naval Academy.
The fellowship winner began
work on his doctorate at A&M in
the summer of 1962. He has con
tinued work each summer, work
ing half-time as a nuclear reactor
operator at the Nuclear Science
Center.
