I couldn’t see the front of it from
where I was.”
ANOTHER INCIDENT that
prompted the move occurred just
as the band entered the street at
the head of the Duncan quadran
gle. A car drove straight toward
the procession and stopped with
in several feet of Head Yell
Leader Tommy Stone. Tijerina
said the driver was apparently
intoxicated, adding that when he
backed up to drive on he nar
rowly missed another group of
people.
“But apart from that incident,
the march was going perfectly
until we got up the street to the
Exchange Store and civilian
dormitory area, he said. “Then
the mob crowded in.”
Davidson said he could not
foresee a change in the new poli
cy. He said several Corps unit
commanders had assured him
that their outfits had been told
not to go ahead of the Band.
“I guess we could have an
armed guard of about 300 men
around us,” Tijerina noted, “but
we shouldn’t have to be guarded
like that. If there’s any pushing
to be done, we can do it our
selves.”
Davidson said an additional
grievance was the students’ ha
bit of throwing toilet paper rolls
from the Kyle Field stands dur
ing the actual yell practice.
“WE HATE being targets for
this stuff,” Tijerina said. “The
yell leaders tell us not to throw
it back, so we’re sitting ducks.”
Tijerina said the band members
would still march to yell practice
in a group, like other units.
“But when it gets to the point
that it reached Friday night,
we’ve just got to say ‘sorry’ ”
he added. “We’re not going to
lead the group under those cir
cumstances.”

Construction Set
For Wind Tunnels
Supersonic and hypersonic
wind tunnels are on the drawing
boards here for undergraduate
educational programs in the De

A matching two-year grant of
$16,000 by the National Science
Foundation has been made for

ART BRIGHT
Bright Assumes
Role As A&M
Consol Principal
Art Bright, former coach and
assistant principal, has assumed
the position of principal at A&M
Consolidated High School. He
was appointed to the position last
June.
Bright was graduated from In
diana Central College where he
majored in physical education and
minored in mathematics. He re
ceived his masters degree in edu
cation from Texas A&M in 1960.
After two years in the Army
and one year teaching experience
in Missouri, Bright accepted a
teaching position at Consolidated
in 1956.
He has taught algebra, ad
vanced mathematics and physical
science. Having coached football,
basketball, and track in his ten
years at Consolidated, Bright was
also active last year as assistant
principal.

facilities, announced department
head A. E. Cronk.
Construction of the supersonic
tunnel will begin within two
weeks, he said, with most com
ponents for the lower speed in
strument on hand.
Completion of the two tunnels
will increase A&M’s facilities for
studying movement of air or
shock waves over an aerody
namic body to six. Two subsonic
tunnels are located in the depart
ment, a 7 by 10 foot tunnel is
situated at Easterwood Field and
a 12-inch arc driven shock tube
is in the Gas Dynamics Lab at
the Research Annex.
Undergraduate aerospace engi
neers supervised by Dr. Richard
Thomas are designing the super
sonic tunnel, with drawings 60
per cent complete.
“Our undergraduates will get
their hands dirty on this equip
ment,” Thomas said. “They will
set up experiments, do the work,
make tests, measure and read
data. They will see shock waves
and other odd things that hap
pen in supersonic flows.”
“The tunnels will make a tre
mendous impact on our ability to
educate good aerospace engi
neers,” Cronk added.
The supersonic tunnel will op
erate from subsonic to Mach 3,
simulating flight speeds to 2,100
mph. The six-by-six inch tunnel
will operate intermittently, re
quiring pressure tank pump-up
after each test of 20 to 30 sec
onds duration. Measurements of
pressures and flows will be made
during this period.
Design of the hypersonic tun
nel, of Mach 6 to 11 capability or
simulated flight to 7,000 mph,
has not begun. It will be a four
to six-inch diameter tube, de
pending on air storage facilities.
“We know what we want and
it’s just a matter of transform
ing ideas to paper,” Thomas em
phasized.
The higher speed tunnel will
require an air heater. Ambient
air forced through nozzles at
Mach 5 liquifies. The heater, a
2,000 degree temperature toast
er, warms air before it enters the
nozzle and tunnel to prevent li-
quification. In addition to heat
ing apparatus, the hypersonic
tunnel will require cooling sys
tems to prevent nozzle and test
model from melting.
The department’s 2,000 cubic
foot pressure tank and 125
pounds per square inch compres
sor will support the supersonic
tunnel. Higher pressure pump
ing and storage facilities are
sought for the hypersonic fix
ture.
Both tunnels, versatile and
flexible enough for graduate re
search purposes, will be housed
in a 30 by 50 foot room below
the 7 by 10 foot Easterwood
Field tunnel. The off-campus lo
cation will reduce costs for si
lencing equipment, provide safety
for high pressure tanks and
make use of existing power sup
ply and control systems.
Both tunnels probably will be
in operation by early summer,
1968, Thomas noted. It is hoped
the supersonic instrument will be
in use by the. spring semester,
1967.
