THE BATTALION
College Station, Texas Thursday, May 5, 1966
Research Vessel
Loses Coring Rig
Texas A&M’s research ship
Alaminos lost its core-sampling
rig off the Florida coast in the
Gulf of Mexico, research scientist
John Antoine has reported.
Oceanography staff member, said
the crew was trying to get a core
sample of an escarpment about
Sbisa Board Line
Closed For Year
The Sbisa Dining Hall upstairs
board line has been closed for
the rest of the semester because
it proved economically unfeasi
ble.
Fred W. Dollar, Food Service
director, said the move was made
to reduce costs.
"We were short on personnel
and at the same time we weren’t
serving the required 1,200 stu
dents to keep it open,” he ex
plained.
The board line cafeteria in the
basement can handle all the stu
dents who have paid board fees,
but Dollar warned that students
should stagger eating times to
prevent long lines.

800 fathoms deep when the mis
hap occurred.
The core-sampler is a 40-foot
pipe with a 1,500-pound weight
suspended from a cable on a
winch topside. The 40-foot pipe
is normally held about 15 feet
from the bottom of the ocean.
When a sample is needed the
pipe is released and falls 15 feet
before striking the ocean floor.
Normally, upon contact, the
weight forces enough material up
the center of the pipe for a good
sample.
It is then relatively easy to
pull the rig out with the winch,
he said.
“Apparently, on our first try,
the pipe must have sunk its full
40-foot length because the winch
couldn’t handle the weight,” An
toine explained.
“We figured the winch was
pulling about 15,000 pounds when
the drive shaft sheared.
“After the shaft broke we tried
to pick up the rig with the ship’s
anchor hooks, but the wire was
bad and the captain decided not to
risk it.
“We had to abandon the core
sampler and that blew our initial
project for the rest of the trip,”
Antoine lamented.
It had been determine from
cores taken on a previous trip to
the area that the sedilnents were
about 100 million years old.
“We were sure we could get
samples of an outcrop dating
back to the Upper Cretaceous
period of the Mesozoic era,” he
continued. “The fossil remains
and pollen spores (fossilized)
usually give good information as
to the age of the outlay.”
Antoine said researchers plan
to return when a new core-sam
pling rig is purchased.

OFFICIALS DISCUSS UTILITIES
W. W. Lynch of Dallas, left, president of Texas Power and
Light Company and an A&M graduate, talks over plans
for the Texas Community Improvement Program with Dr.
R. E. Patterson, dean of agriculture. Utility company
executives met here this week to discuss university pro
grams supported by the firms.
Panel Discusses
Education Goals
Higher standards of teaching
and better trained teachers was
a common prediction of a three-
man panel discussing the future
of education here this week.
The Texas Association of
School Boards regional workshop
was held at the Ramada Inn.
About 75 attended a buffet din
ner and heard the panel, “Action
for Public Education.” The work
shop was sponsored by the De
partment of Education and Psy
chology.
Concurring on improved teach
ing techniques were Penrose B.
Metcalfe of the State Board of
Education, association executive
secretary Donald G. Nugent and
Dr. Terrell W. Ogg, superinten
dent of Crockett schools.
Metcalfe, lawyer, rancher, leg
islator and state board member
for 16 years, noted improved
standards and training will re
quire better pay for teachers.
“It is better than it was,” the
recent A&M Muster speaker re
marked, “but could still stand
considerable improvement. The
board is not a lobbying group,
either. In virtually all our bi
annual reports to the Legisla
ture, we’ve recommended in
creased pay.”
Nugent pointed out that the
Classroom Teachers Association
is attempting to get new laws
passed, one legalizing teacher
negotiations with school boards
and a second establishing teachef
tenure in the state.
Ogg declared the future of state
education would require sweep
ing changes in curriculum, school
district organization, longer
school terms organized after-
hours supervision of study and
getting children in school at ear
lier ages.
