4 Researchers
Plan For Voyage
Four researchers from Texas
A&M will leave Tuesday for
South America for a 60-day
cruise in Antarctic waters and
the South Pacific. They sail
May 24 from Valparaiso, Chile
and are due July 24 in Auck-
lan, New Zealand.
The A&M group which will
join researchers from other major
universities in working aboard the
U. S. Navy Ship Eltanin includes
two women. They are Miss Lela
M. Jeffrey, a chemical oceano
grapher who has worked at sea
before, and Mrs. Lynne Goers,
60-Day Cruise
Poses Problem
To Aggie Wife
Texas A&M student wife Lynne
Goers from Houston has solved
a problem few wives face—how
to tell a husband she has been
asked to serve as a laboratory
technician for a 60-day research
cruise into Antartic waters.
Mrs. Goers never has been on
a ship but she is an experienced
technician with a degree in bac
teriology.
“I want her to go for the ex
perience which few people can
ever have,” Roger said. He is
an A&M senior majoring in elec
trical engineering. His plans are
“to batch it” in their college apart
ment and attend summer school.
Mrs. Goers and three other A&M
representatives including another
woman, chemical oceanographer
Lela M. Jeffrey, will leave Tues
day. They will board the U. S.
Naval Ship Eltanin to sail May
24 from Valparaiso, Chile and dock
July 24 at Auckland, New Zealand.
The vessel is “a floating labora
tory.”
Lynne is especially interested
in the fact they sail from Val
paraiso.
“My father told me I had a
great grandfather go around the
Cape during the Gold Rush, and
he probably stopped in Valparaiso.”
The Goers have been married
four years next September. Both
attended the U of H while she was
completing her studies and then
they came to A&M.
Goers may stay at A&M for a
master’s degree in computer sci
ence after completing undergrad
uate work.
What does a woman wear on a
cruise into Antarctic waters ?
Mrs. Goers plans to wear warm
slacks as her working clothes.
She notes appreciatively the ship
has a well-equipped laundry room.
“They furnish us with our heavy
duty warm clothes,” she said.
Her only major travel until now
was in 1959 when she flew to
Hawaii to visit a Stephens College
roommate. But, she points out,
others in the A&M group are ex
perienced travelers.
a student’s wife and marine bio
logical lab technician. Mrs. Geors
will be making her first voyage.
Miss Jeffrey heads a chemical
oceanography research project
and Dr. S. Z. El-Sayed, a vet
eran of cruises off Antartica, has
charge of a biological productivity
study. The studies are closely
related.
Also going from A&M is a
graduate student, Navy Lt. David
J. Wright. A de Romedi of the
Argentine Hydrographic Service
will join the A&M group aboard
ship.
Wright, a native of Oregon,
holds a chemical engineering de
gree from Oregon State Universi
ty. He came to A&M in Septem
ber to study for a master’s de
gree in chemical oceanography.
A veteran of service aboard de
stroyers and ocean minesweepers,
he knows the Pacific but not An
tartic waters.
This cruise Wright will be a
technician for Miss Jeffrey and
gather data for his master’s
thesis.
Two other A&M graduate stu
dents, Alan D. Fredericks and
Donald R. Davis, will make the
subsequent cruises aboard the
Eltanin.
The National Science Founda
tion recently granted more than
$74,000 for the two research stu
dies of A&M scientists. Equip
ment costs substantially increase
the NSF support.
“It’ll be winter there so this
will be no pleasure cruise,” El-
Sayed said. His new project ex
tends westward the area of ocean
in which he has studied primary
biological productivity. This in
volves microscopic organisms
found in the sea. Their function
is something like that of grass
on a cattle range.
“I have been on oceanographic
cruises in the Gulf of Mexico,
that part doesn’t bother me. But
I dislike the long hours of dark
ness we’ll have this voyage,” Miss
Jeffrey said. “First we have to
find out what’s there and then
make sense of the findings.”
She and Lieutenant Wright will
take samples daily from the
“water column,” the sea from the
surface to depths of more than
3,000 feet.
El-Sayed’s group will take sam
ples every six hours on each of
three 60-day cruises of the El
tanin. Miss Jeffrey’s plans also
involve another cruise this fall.
The Eltanin is described as “a
floating laboratory.” The vessel
was built originally as a polar
cargo ship and is operated by
the Military Sea Transport Serv
ice for the U. S. Antarctic Re
search Programs, National Sci
ence Foundation. The NSF spon
sored conversion of the ship to
scientific purposes.
The 60-day voyage begins May
24 and ends July 24 at Auckland.
On July 29 the ship begins the
voyage back to Valparaiso and
Oct. 7 sails on a return voyage
to Auckland.
CONCRETE MASONRY WINNERS
Three Texas A&M Agricultural Engineering young engineers
Students won awards in the 1965 Texas ^ j --'-
Concrete Masonry Association Structures
Design competition. Left to right: Robert
Chenoweth, Tulia, placed first; Gilbert
Kretzschmar, Bartlett, second; and Marvin
Thedford, Brenham, third. Each of the
were presented checks
totaling $250 by the Concrete Masonry Asso
ciation for their awards. Projects included
designs of agricultural structures involving
the use of concrete masonry and were
judged on structural and functional ad
equacy, presentation and creative thinking.

Parking Permitted For Homebound
Students preparing to leave for
the summer will be permitted to
park vehicles on Henderson Street
and Old Main Drive May 21-22
and May 24-28, according to Ed
Powell, chief of the Campus
Security.
Powell added that the open space

periods.
AGGIES,
This summer, if you have a friend who
is planning on entering A&M next Tall, tell
him to write to LOUPOTS, College Station,
Texas, for his FREE CAMPUSOLOGY BOOK.
(Don’t forget to tell him I’ll present him with his
free Aggie T-Shirt when he becomes an Aggie.)

The other day Grandad read an account in our
newspaper about the miraculous speed of a B-58
bomber. He contrasted this accomplishment with
the experience in his youth when he spotted his first
airplane five miles outside of town—and then rode
a bicycle into town in time to see the plane circling
the capitol building.
It seems incredible the technological advances
mankind has made in the past fifty years. Men
who rode to Sunday School by horse and buggy as
boys, today follow the flight of astronauts on TV.
Their wives do the family laundry with the twist
of a dial, and their grandchildren learn Algebra
from programmed textbooks.
One unchanging fact remains. Man still needs
God as the center and circumference of his life.
And the Church, as God’s expression, remains con
stant in the teaching of His Truths.

Al_I_ FOR THE CHURCH
THE CHURCH FOR ALL.
The Church is the greatest factor
on earth for the building of charac
ter and good citizenship. It is a store
house of spiritual values. Without a
strong Church, neither democracy
nor civilization can survive. There
are four sound reasons why every
person should attend services regu
larly and support the Church. They
are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For
his children’s sake. (3) For (he sake
of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and material
support. Plan to go to church regu
larly and read your Bible daily.
