LOOKING FORA SUMMER Campus Briefs Students Attend Houston Tour Twenty-eight Texas A&M ag ricultural engineering students are visiting heavy equipment dis tributors, fabrication facilities and the Astrodome in Houston today. William H. Aldred, assistant professor of agricultural engi neering, is accompanying the group. Aldred said the trip is cov ering five major training points for the students. These are facili ties used in steel fabrication, in dustrial safety practices, steel forging and heat treatment methods, heavy equipment deal ership operation, and facilities used to heat and cool the domed stadium. CS - Bryan Moves (Continued from Page 1) than average educational level, he added. The growth of A&M is vital to area business, industry and agri culture. The Texas A&M Re search Annex is dedicated to de velop industry with imagination and ingenuity. The campus has sophisticated computer equipment for industrial management and scientific re search. HUNDREDS of nuclear energy research projects are being car ried on, notably in the pure sciences, and computer science. Westmoreland is convinced that A&M will attract more research facilities and companies, and the extensive amount of brainpower will also attract new industry. The Agricultural Experiment Station is located here as well as the Engineering Experiment Sta tion, both contributing valuable information utilized throughout the country. In another area Westmoreland said the lack of some recreational establishments would have to wait until the population grew be yond 50,000. ticipants come primarily from the upper echelons of depart ments, with one student from the National Auto Theft Bureau.

In the relatively short span of 10 years, the number of grad uates working in the U. S. De partment of Agriculture’s Statis tical Reporting Service in Austin has jumped from zero to seven. The Aggies hold degrees from the Department of Agricultural Economics and Sociology. Their job is to provide an objective picture of agricultural produc tion in Texas and the United States. Farmers, ranchers and persons in allied industries use their find ings in making production and marketing decisions. There were no A&M graduates in Austin’s SRS office a decade ago. Through efforts of Dr. Ty- rus R. Timm, head of the Depart ment of Agricultural Economics, Wendell Horsley, Placement Of fice director, and Gary D. Pal mer, statistician in charge of the state SRS office, the situation was changed. Since that time, the office has employed 11 A&M agricultural economics graduates. The seven now in the agency are Arlon Scott, class of 1959; Robert McClure, M.S. ’59; Charles Gore, ’64; Douglas Fortune, ’64; Allan Marburger, ’60; Douglas Spillmann, ’64; and Dave Elen burg, ’63. Agricultural economics and so ciology graduates working in oth er states or in SRS headquarters in Washington are Charles Al len, class of 1965; Doyle Brown ing, ’61; Bob Pfluger, ’61, and Brooks Sitton, ’61. Palmer said Aggies in the Aus tin office traveled more than 65,000 miles last year observing crops and livestock, interviewing farmers, ranchers, processors, warehousemen and others in ag ribusiness, and serving the Crop Reporting Board in Washington, D.
