four-year scholarships will be
awarded to 400 students and two-

Four-year scholarships will be
granted to individuals who are
entering college for the first
time. Two-year scholarships will

of the four-year Army ROTC
program.
The Army will pay these stu

Payment of $50 a month will be
made from the date the scholar
ships begin until graduation, to

ing camp where the student will
be paid at the rate of $120.60 per
month, plus transportation.

Upon graduation from college
and the successful completion of
their Army ROTC studies, the
scholarship students are required

Three graduate students in the
Department of Wildlife Manage

grants for support of their field
studies, according to Dr. James
G. Teer, who will direct their
studies.
James Bartee of Denton was
awarded $850 for research at the
Delta Waterfowl Research Sta
tion at Delta, Manitoba, Canada.
The stipend comes from the R.

TTI Begins
Pavement Test
Construction
Research engineers in the Pave
ment Design Department of the
Texas Transportation Institute
have begun construction of a
unique pavement testing facility
at the A&M Research Annex.
Accepted research in the past
has been to drive fleets of heavily
loaded trucks over pavements night
and day for months at a time to
destroy pavements.
The new plan for a test facility
to be used as a reference standard
or proving ground for recently de
veloped! non-destructive equips
ment designed to determine the
strength of various types of flexi
ble pavement without damaging
the pavement structure.
Altogether, 29 test sections of
600 square feet each will be con
structed.
Frank H. Scrivner, head of the
Pavement Design Section, pointed
out the combination of materials
and material thicknesses used re
presents a range of pavement de
signs from the weakest to the
strongest in use today. Dimen
sions and arrangement of materials
selected for test sections were
based on recommendations by Dr.
H. O. Hartley, head of the Insti
tute.
While the facility has been
planned to test presently availa
ble equipment, it probably will
be used for a number of years as
a standard of comparison to meas
ure the performance of other non
destructive testing devices, ac
cording to Tom W. Stallworth,
assistant research enginee r in
charge of the construction of the
project.
Stallworth said the cost of con
structing each mile of Interstate
Highway System is approximately
$1 million, while the cost of this
project to develop basic pavement
design information of value nation
wide is estimated at $40,000.

sently holds a Graduate College

Phi Eta Sigma
Dean C. H. Ransdell, faculty
advisor for Phi Eta Sigma, an
nounced Tuesday that 71 fresh
men were eligible to be initiated
into the organization Tuesday at
5 p.m. in the Birch Room of
the Memorial Student Center.
Phi Eta Sigma is a national
scholastic honor fraternity for
first-year college men. It was
founded at the University of Il
linois in 1923 to encourage
scholarship among first-year col
lege men and to honor those who
make outstanding records.
The requirement for member
ship is high, a 2.5 average during
the first semester of college
work, but everyone who attains
this is eligible. Membership is
an earned honor which is re
tained for life, although active
membership is limited to the
sophomore year.
Renaissance Talk
Subject Is Bard
Scholars attending the South
Central Renaissance Conference
here heard Shakespeare depicted
“in one perspective as a skillful
conservator and reflector of the
amassed wisdom of the human
race” rather than original writer
in the modern sense.
The Rev. Dr. Walter J. Ong,
of St. Louis University, was feat
ured speaker for the conference
held Friday and Saturday with
A&M faculty acting as hosts.
Registered were 75 scholars in
the humanties. Six states were
represented.
“Commonplaces, Typography
and the Transformation of Re
naissance Culture” was Ong’s
topic for the banquet Friday
night at the Ramada Inn.
Commonplaces came to mean
printed collections of quotations
from writers of the ages on di
verse subjects. Ong described
the tradition as “the last great
far-flung bastion of the old oral-
aural state of mind.”
“The discovery of the massive
use of commonplace material has,
of course, upset our study of
sources in the Renaissance,” the
professor of English said.
Handbooks provided collections
of saying on all possible themes.
Borrowing was a virtue.
“In these perspectives, Shake-
peare’s value becomes that of a
skillful conservator and reflector
of the amassed wisdom of the hu
man race,” Ong said. “ . . . Shake
speare was not original in the
way in which later people have
tried to be original. He did not
want to be. He wanted to rework
the old wisdom in an always fresh
and meaningful way . . . (this)
belongs to a different world from
ours.”
The difference holds special in
terest for Ong who has written
extensively upon the “discourse
oriented” and our “visually
oriented” cultures.
The St. Louis University pro
fessor completed doctoral studies
at Harvard. He has conducted
research in the major libraries of
Europe, lectured on both sides
of the Atlantic and is the author
of numerous books and articles.
Tulane University professor
Panos Paul Morphos presided at
the banquet as president-elect
of the 1965-66 conference. Other
officers were elected and Lou
isiana State University chosen for
the 1966 conference site during a
business session.
Honors Group
Discussing
Fiscal Control
“Major Philosophical Issues,”
The Politics of Monetary and Fis
cal Policy”’' and “The Languages
of the World” are among the
topics being discussed this semes
ter by selected A&M freshmen.
All are in the Honors Program
inaugurated this academic year.
The discussions or colloquia con
ducted weekly by outstanding
members of the faculty are a feat
ure of the Honors Program for
selected superior students of the
College of Arts and Sciences.
“The Honors Program Commit
tee is very well pleased with the
performance of our students in
this program,” Dr. R. H. Ballinger
said. He chairs the faculty com
mittee composed of one representa
tive from each of the 14 depart
ments in the arts and sciences.
The total of 43 students this
semester in the selective, volun
tary program is more than the
initial semester. The 43 students
represent various disciplines in the
arts and sciences.
“Honors Program students also
are participating actively in extra
curricular activities,” Ballinger al
so reported.
The purpose of the Honors Pro
gram is to offer the superior stu
dent special opportunities for aca
demic work of a range and depth
appropriate to his capabilities and
greater intellectual interests.
The Honors Colloquim each week
and Honors Sections of basic
freshman courses are key points
of the program.
The colloquia or discussion topics
j this semester concern the humani-
i ties and social sciences. In the
! Fall Semester, physical and life
I scientists led the sessions.
