Firemen-trainers from Texas
A&M’s Engineering Extension
Service keep the road hot imple
menting itinerant programs
throughout the state.
“Largely, our five-man staff
works with volunteer and small
paid fire departments to help
them achieve maximum efficiency
from available facilities,” declar
ed Henry D. Smith, chief of
A&M’s Firemen’s Training Divi
sion. “We tailor training pro
grams to fit needs of individual
departments.”
The tailoring ranges from aid
ing in organizing or reorganizing
departments, writing specifica
tions for new equipment, design
ing fire prevention programs for
public schools, to the use of lad
ders and principles of ventilation.
EMPHASIS is on training fire
men to do their job in the safest,
fastest manner.
Tom Robinson, a 34-year fire
service veteran with eight years
at A&M, summed up the school’s
aims.
“The related information we
give in lectures is valuable,” he
said. “But it’s not any good to
the firemen until they go outside
and apply it. The testing factor
is the key to success.”

Prof Publishes
Bengali Study
The Modern Languages De
partment has published a new
book, “Word Frequency in News
paper Bengali,” in its study
series of the language.
The 123-page volume by Dr.
Jack A. Dabbs is the first scien
tific study to determine the most-
used words in the Bengali lan
guage.
Bengali, one of the major lan
guages of the world, is spoken in
East Pakistan and neighboring
parts of India by more than 60
million people, Dr. Dabbs said.
“This study is of special value
to teachers and students of the
language, because it helps deter
mine which words are of greater
frequency and importance * than
others,” the department head
said.
The book is one of six produced
at A&M, which is developing edu
cational institutions in East Pak
istan through the International
Programs Office. A short Ben-
gali-English dictionary was pub
lished in 1962 and reprinted in
1966. Two texts and a book on
dialects were written at A&M.
“The world’s first tape re
corded dictionary was produced
here when the entire dictionary
was put on magnetic tape for stu
dents who have no native speak
er,” Dr. Dabbs noted.
Research was sponsored by In
ternational Programs, the Liberal
Arts College and from funds de
rived from dictionary sales. Bas
is of the study was a Sunday
issue of a Calcutta newspaper.
Twenty - one high - frequency
words make up 10 per cent of all
the words used in an average
newspaper,” Dabbs commented.
He said 43,000 words appeared in
the issue, of which 8,000 were
used only once.
Dr. Dabbs and his assistant,
Mrs. Ruby Ali, are presently en
gaged in compiling a glossary of
scientific agricultural terms in
English and Bengali.
Speaking of keys, the training
by A&M’s itinerant instructors
earns no key rate insurance cred
its for participating fire depart
ments. Some departments set up
training and equipment programs
recommended by the A&M spe
cialists, however, with the event
ual results contributing to a fire
insurance rate reduction for that
city.
LAST YEAR, five itinerant in
structors conducted training pro
grams in 120 Texas towns, log
ging 6,794 miles in the process.
The mileage might have been
even higher except for a “circuit
riding” plan.
Altogether, 600 meetings pro
vided 34,974 hours of instruction
for 2,323 firemen.
A&M officials say the ideal
class has 14 students, but enroll
ment varies from a minimum of
10 to a maximum of 25.
Courses last a minimum of 15
hours each. And since volun
teers work in a variety of jobs
during the day, most classes are
taught at night.
“WE SET up a five-town cir
cuit, usually within a 25 or 30
mile radius except in West Tex
as,” explained Chief Smith. “The
same instructor teaches classes in
each town one night a week for
five weeks.”
A minor problem of coordina
tion often arises since many fire
departments stage training meet
ings on the same night.
Hines Promoted
In Judo Ranking
The Armed Forces Judo Asso
ciation, acting for the U. S. Judo
Association and Kodokan Judo
Institute, recently approved the
request of the Texas A&M Judo
Club to promote club sponsor, Air
Force Lt. Colonel Thomas E.
Hines, to the rank of sankyu
(third brown belt) in judo for
service to judo.
Lt. Col. Hines assumed sponsor
ship of the club on the departure
from A&M of Major Lester R.
Hewitt.
Promotions for service to judo
are awarded to persons judged by
the promotions committee of the
Armed Forces Judo Association
as deserving, based on the indi
vidual’s contribution to the ad
vance of the sport. Air Force
Generals Curtis E. LeMay and
Thomas Powers received similar
promotions while serving as com
manders-in-chief of the Strategic
Air Command.
“We get eager, attentive stu
dents for our classes,” comment
ed James Bland, an 11-year
TEES employe with 30 years in
fire service. “They come for in
struction because they want it,
not because their chief told them
to come.”
Chief Smith said 95 per cent of
the circuit departments send men
to annual summer training
schools at A&M.
“WE POINT out advantages of
further training during the short
schools,” he continued. “They
realize it’s to their advantage to
keep up good training programs.
You can’t give anybody 15 years
of experience in 15 hours of in
struction.”

FLOYD LAMBERT
TEES Names
Lambert Head
In Electronics
Floyd A. Lambert has been
named chief instructor of the In
stitute of Electronic Science, a
division of Texas A&M’s Engi
neering Extension Service.
Lambert’s appointment to the
post, effective March 1, was an
nounced by H. D. Bearden, TEES
director.
The Institute of Electronic Sci
ence is located at Texas A&M’s
Research Annex, 12 miles west of
Bryan. Fifty-eight students are
currently enrolled in two ad
vanced classes.
Lambert replaces L. K. Jonas,
who recently resigned to become
director of engineering arts and
technology at Central Texas Col
lege, a new institution scheduled
to open in September near Kil
leen.
Bearden said Lambert chose
teaching over industrial applica
tion of his technological experi
ence.
“Lambert is a natural selection
for the job,” Bearden remarked.
“He will continue to play a key
role in development of more
unique and advanced specialized
training programs. He is keenly
interested in new applications.
Last year, for instance, he took a
computer science course at
A&M’s Data Processing Center
and studied transistor develop
ments at Texas Instruments in
Dallas.”
Jonas joined Tees in 1951 as
an instructor in the Supervisory
Development Division. He be
came chief instructor a year later
and held that post until he was
named to develop the Institute
of Electronic Science in 1963.
A 1938 electrical engineering
graduate of Texas A&M, Lam
bert joined TEES in 1963 as an
instructor after logging 25 years’
service with the Air Force. He
retired as a lieutenant colonel
with experience in communica
tions and electronics. In 1959-
60, Lambert managed all com
munications and electronics oper
ations for the U. S. in Korea,
commanding a 750-man squadron.
Bearden said two new instruc
tors will be added to the insti
tute’s teaching staff in the near
future. The institute currently
has a five-member staff.
