Page 8 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Thursday, March 3, 1966 Students Design Waco Growth Plan Advanced architecture students at Texas A&M may figure in the future growth of Waco. Thirty-one fifth year and 10 graduate students in urban and regional planning recently com pleted a Waco Civic and Conven tion Center study financed by the Waco Perpetual Growth Founda tion. Project Director Paul Tate, as sociate chairman ,of A&M’s School of Architecture, said “Our study of Waco's Jefferson Urban Renewal site is workable and within the real of possibility.” “We don’t propose all of I the things we show as firm solu tions,” Pate added. “Hopefully, the study will make the people of Waco more aware of the poten tial of their city. It can be help ful only if conscious efforts by citizens are made to employ qual ified professionals in planning and landscape architecture to im plement the study and probe deeper into the problems.” A jury of Harlan Fentress, chairman of the Waco perpetual Growth Foundation; R. B. Hoov er, executive director of the WPGF; Dr. Charles Trost, a Uni versity of Texas professor af filiated with Harland Bartholo mew and Associates, St. Louis planners; Hal Stringer, Waco landscape architect; David Car- naham, Waco architect; Bob Sheehy, Waco attorney, and P. M. Johnson, Waco city councilman and private attorney, reviewed the study. Pate described the project’s general reception by the jury as favorable and complimentary. Teams were divided to study actual redevelopment of the downtown area, and an academic approach to development of the Lake Waco area. ii HI > - ARCHITECTURE STUDENTS CONSTRUCT WACO DEVELOPMENT PLAN . . . scale model proposes civic center, government tower, cultural additions. —job Calls— 4g Girls To Participate FRIDAY MT Both proposals call for a con vention and civic center to ac commodate 5,000 conventioneers.

He said the downtown project includes a proposal for a com munity junior college on the east side of the Brazos River. All downtown facilities would be linked by a pedestrian bridge. The study, Pate explained, calls for reconditioning and maintain ing the existing downtown area, plus a new urban core of regional magnitude at Lake Waco.

The idea is to select those strains which survive the ordeai so that they can be utilized in breeding work for commercial production in Texas. It’s called an international pro gram because the test site is at Mayaguez in Puerto Rico, a tropi cal island where rust disease thrives. A&M is cooperating with the U. S. Department of Agriculture on the project Dr. I. M. Atkins, agronomist and Small Grain Section Leader in the Department of Soil and Crop Sciences will be in Puerto Rico this week to study strains of Texas wheat and oats grown there for the disease evaluation tests. ■ fi Pat Collier, Houston; Cheri Jones, Denison; Carolyn and Marilyn Grooms, Brownwood; Brenda Peterson, Princeton, N.

Conditions for spread of the rusts are favorable in Puerto Rico, and a severe epi demic of each race can be created. Prof Receives Heart Surgery Research Grant Dr. D. L. Piermattei of the Col lege of Veterinary Medicine has received a special postdoctoral fellowship for cardiovascular (heart) surgery research at Col orado State University. The fellowship is from the Na tional Heart Institute of the Pub lic Health Service. Piermattei’s leave of absence starts next Sep tember and will last for about two years. The veterinarian, an associate professor in the Department of Veterinary Medicine and Sur gery, said the award will enable him to study toward a Ph.D. in experimental surgery. His research will be conducted at Colorado State University’s Surgical and Metabolic Disease Laboratory. He will work witb Dr. Henry Swan, a nationally known physician and thoracic (chest) surgeon. Piermattei said his studies will involve total heart transplanta tion in animals, with possible adaptation of techniques to hu man heart surgery. He said the procedures and techniques learned at the labora tory will be utilized in a stepped- up animal surgical research pro gram at Texas A&M. Piermattei’s research at A&M has dealt with orthopedics, or bone and joint surgery.
