Ruben 6th Member
Of Reyes Family
To Receive Degree
Ruben V. Reyes of Beeville will
become the sixth member of his
family to receive a degree from
Texas A&M when he is awarded
his sheepskin Saturday.
Reyes, who will receive a bache
lor’s degree in sociology with a
minor in animal science, is the
youngest in a family of 14. Six
of the 14 are girls and eight
are boys.
Alvino Reyes was the first of
the brothers to graduate from
A&M, receiving his B.S. degree in
petroleum engineering in 1939.
Following him was Antonio, who
graduated in 1941 with a B.S.
in agricultural education. An
tonio is now the president and
owner of the Atlas Distributing
Co. & Imperial Gas Co. of San
Juan, Puerto Rico. Alvino is a
petroleum engineer for the At
lantic Refining Co. of Houston.
Two other brothers, Carlos (de
ceased) and Humberto, were
graduated in 1950. Humberto
received his B.S. in animal hus
bandry while Carlos received his
B.A. in business. Carlos died in
1951 when the jet in which he was
flying crashed at Perrin Air Force
Base in Sherman.
In 1956 Mike Reyes was grad
uated with a B.S. in petroleum
engineering. He now works as
a petroleum engineer for Hali-
burton Inc. of Lima, Peru.
Another brother, Pete, has at
tended A&M for four years, but
does not yet have a degree and
will probably go on to law school.
Lecas Reyes, who graduated
from the University of Mexico
City, is now an agronomist with
the Agricultural Extension Serv
ice at Beeville. This means that
all eight of the brothers have
had some association with A&M.
After graduation Reyes will
work with Carlos Reyes and Sons
in Beeville. There, he will be
working with his father, Carlos,
and two brothers, Humberto and
Pete.
New Program Introduces
Fish To Engineering Thinking
Inasmuch as all freshmen en
gineering students must take en
gineering graphics at Texas
A&M, they are a captive audience
for a new program to introduce
them to engineering thinking and
principles.
During the past three weeks
around 600 freshmen have been
allowed one class period per week
to work in three—man teams on
any one of seven offered engi
neering problems.
Dr. Jim H. Earle, associate pro
fessor of engineering graphics,
said because all freshmen engi
neering majors must take engi
neering graphics it would be a
good opportunity to introduc*
them to the sort of work they
would would be doing later. Here,
their interest in engineering may
be strengthened or they may find
that they are not suited to en
gineering thinking.
“The program is an introduc
tion to comprehensive design
problems,” Earle said. “It teaches
freshmen the steps an engineer
takes to arrive at a conclusion.”
The students were told to
choose from a list of seven prob
lems which were applicable to
various types of engineering and
with which most students were
acquainted. Some of these prob
lems were: a study of campus
automobile population projected
to 1986, design of an antenna
mounting system, design of a golf
driving range, a study of drive
way standards, the design of a
soccer field and a study of traffic
patterns and parking for in
creased attendence at football
games.
“Our main interest was to in
troduce the students to the broad
concept of engineering,” Earle
said. “The purpose to stimulate
the students’ interest in engineer
ing and to stimulate their indi
vidual problem solving creativity.
Also, it should give them some
experience in team effort because
as engineers they will find it
important and necessary to work
with many people.”
Earle said the program will be
extended to both first and second
semester courses next year to
be carried out as it was this
semester.
Seven persons, including Earle,
Samuel M. Cleveland, John P.
Oliver, L. E. Stark, Paul M. Ma
son, North B. Bardell and Mich
ael P. Guerard, are in the creat
ors of a problems book which
the freshmen use in the course.
“The design approach is a
unique feature area of engineer
ing,” Earle said. He said that
a design problem requires an en
gineer to start with rough ideas
and to refine them and develop
them into a workable solution.
Don't just sit there,
Wallace Middendorp.
Make a noise. Or drink
Sprite, the
noisy soft
drink.
What did you do
when Joe (Boxcar)
Brkczpmluj was
kicked off the
football team just
because he flunked
six out of four of
his majors? What
did you do, Wallace
Middendorp?
And when the
school newspaper's
editors resigned in
WALLACE MIDDENDORP SAT HERE
protest because The Chancellor wouldn't allow the
publication of certain salacious portions of
"Night In a Girl's Dormitory"
you just sat, didn't you?
You've made a mockery of your
life, Wallace Middendorp!
You're a vegetable.
Protest, Wallace Middendorp.
Take a stand. Make a noise!
Or drink, Sprite, the noisy soft
drink.
Open a bottle of Sprite at
the next campus speak-out. Let
it fizz and bubble to the
masses.
Let its lusty carbonation
echo through the halls of ivy.
Let its tart, tingling
exuberance infect the crowd
with excitement.
Do these things, Wallace
Middendorp. Do these things,
and what big corporation is
going to hire you?
SPRITE.
TART
AND TINGLING.
WE JUST COULDN'T
KEEP IT QUIET.
