Most programs expect to double productivity, but we feel a three-fold increase will be aver age for the student we expect to instruct.” “A STUDENT may read an article in three minutes, turn it over and recite six ideas he got from it at the beginning of the course,” he explained further. “At the end of the course, he will be able to do the same thing and get 18 ideas.” Dr. Parry added that students will become more conscious of the definite meaning of words. Individual experience with me chanical devices, including a con trolled reader, Craig reader, read ing accelerator and tachistoscope will serve a definite instructional aspect, he added. Enrollment will be limited to 25 graduate students in teacher education. During the semester experimental information will be obtained, with the results influ encing future course offerings for additional graduate students and adults, noted Dr. PruI Hensarling, head of the Education and Psycho logy Department. DR. PARRY has been involved in reading improvement programs several years. He conducted cours es for business executives of the Meredith Publishing Co., Des Moines, Iowa; the Des Moines Register and Tribune and Blue Cross Insurance personnel, legis lators, doctors and others.

ME Professor Gets Contract For Research A $33,067 Humble Oil and Re fining Company development con tract has been awarded to Assist ant Professor P. D. Weiner of Texas A&M's Mechanical Engi neering Department. Weiner said the one-year con tract is for developing methods of analysis of stress in various drill collar connections due to service conditions of oil wells. Dr. Harry J. Sweet, assistant professor of aerospace engineer ing, is co-principal investigator. Thomas Asbill, a graduate me chanical engineering student from Dumas, will assist, as will a sen ior student yet to be named. Purpose of the project, Weiner said, is to eliminate costly failures in drill collar connections during drilling of oil and gas wells. “A single failure can easily amount to $1 million,” Weiner re marked. “If a connection fails, you can lose a well or an entire off-shore drilling platform.” Work on the contract is to be gin Feb. 1 in the Mechanical Engi neering Shops Building. The con tract provides $2,500 for equip ment and a lesser amount for field trips to off-shore drilling rigs. Weiner commented that the prevention of one “fishing job” through development of new analysis methods would almost pay for the project. “If a drill pipe fails and it has to be retrieved, the ‘fishing job’ could cost $25,000 or more,” he explained. Weiner has worked ten years as a tubing and casing consultant for Humble. He holds a patent on one tubing connection and has three patents pending.
