Industrial Education
Offices Remodeled
Main office of the Department
of Industrial Education is being
remodeled for the first time in
50 years.
The “new” office will consist
of a lower ceiling, western cedar
paneling on the walls, recessed
lighting, a formica counter, acous
tical ceiling, sandalwood drapes
and yellow and white painting.
The office has recently been air
conditioned.
The remodeling is being done
by Buildings and Utilities of
A&M.
Lonny Zweiner of the Texas
Attorney General's office will
speak on “The New Criminal
Social Room of the Memorial
Student Center at 7:30 p.m. Tues
day.
The speech is being sponsored
by the A&M chapter of Sigma
Delta Chi, the professional jour
nalistic society. Zweiner is ex
pected to slant his opening re
marks toward the criminal code’s
application to news coverage. The
meeting will then be open to
questions from the floor.
Zweiner has been a member of
a group of Attorney General of
fice assistants engaged in speak
ing tours around the state brief
ing various groups on the various
applications of the new code. His
studies in the field should classi
fy him as an authority in the
field.
The new criminal code which
will go into effect in Texas on
Jan. 1 places certain restrictions
on pre-trial coverage of crimes
by newspapers and in part is
an attempt to do away with trial
by newspaper.
A&M Graduate Student
Recalls World Record Dive
By GUS DE LA GARZA

who is now working on his
master’s degree here in physical

where, how and why the deepest
dive was made.

Math Department
Slates Colloquim
Alexander F. Kleiner, graduate
assistant in the Department of
Mathematics, will speak on
“Fourier Series and Convolution”
at the department’s next col
loquim program at 4 p.m. Tues
day in Room 206 of the Academic
Building.
Walsh said he dived 250 miles
southwest of Guam in the Mari
anas trench, the deepest known
place in the ocean. Walsh and
Jacques Piccard went 35,800 feet
deep in the bathyscaphe Trieste
on Jan. 23, 1960. Piccard’s father
built the Trieste in Italy, and it
was bought by the U. S. Navy in
1958.
The purpose of the dive was
to demonstrate the use of a
bathyscaphe as a tool to study
the oceanographer’s environment,
Walsh said. He said the ocean
ographer had long been barred
from depths of the ocean. And
the whole idea was to take the
trained eye and mind of a sci
entist to the bottom. Walsh said
the dive demonstrated the utility
and feasibility of this approach.
Resulting publicity convinced
scientists in oceanography of its
utility and opened the ocean
depths to closer investigation.
Walsh said further investigation
and study of the ocean would
eventually find ways and means
of developing the vast mineral
and food wealth of the sea.
Oceanographers are aware of
this vast wealth but have not de
veloped methods to exploit the
ocean and successfully compete
with present land methods of ex
ploitation. One exception Walsh
noted was the petroleum indus
try, which has successfully de
veloped methods to recover oil
and gas from the ocean.
Walsh said he enjoyed giving
talks on the future of oceanog
raphy, but work on his master’s
degree “frankly keeps me very
busy.”
Busy or not, Walsh has time to
be an advisor to the Great Issues
Committee.
