Education Society Meets, Hears Address By Bemis Page 4 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Friday, February 10, IK Color Print Collection Goes On Loan »■ 1 BEAUTY AND GRACE Harkness Ballet Coming To A&M Phi Delta Kappa Executive Secretary Dr. Maynard Bemis warned members of the profes sional educators fraternity Thurs day of problems that need creative leadership in the education field. Bemis addresed 70 persons at tending a Delta Nu chapter initia tion banquet of the national or ganization. Members of the fra ternity from Nacogdoches and Prairie View A&M attended the event, at which 17 new members were initiated. Dr. Walter Varvel of the Edu cation and Psychology Depart ment chairs the area chapter. Dr. Bemis took issue against the power struggle for control of education, found fault with cate gorical aids that necessitate fed eral government controls and the national assessment program. He propounded complete sepa ration of church and state and commended an interstate compact proposing professional-collective The Harkness Ballet, one of the nation’s youngest but greatest ballets is scheduled for a Thurs day performance at Bryan’s Municipal Auditorium. Sponsored by the Town Hall Committee of Texas A&M’s Me morial Student Center, the “Ex tra” is set for 8 p.m., announced Town Hall Chairman Sammy Pearson. Newspaper reviews invariably comment about the emphasis of youth in the Harkness Ballet. In fact, one of the featured works of the performance is “Youth.” “Koshare,” a spectacular ballet dealing with the Hopi Indians’ story of the creation, is another spotlighted event on the program. The founding of Harkness Ballet in 1964, fulfilled one of the major goals of its patron, Mrs. Rebekah Harkness. The company gave its first per formance in the White House in 1964 before President and Mrs. Lyndon B. Johnson and a dis tinguished audience assembled to honor the Philippine President. Tickets are on sale at the MSC Student Program Office, Car negie Library and Jarrott’s Town- shire Pharmacy. Reservations may be made by telephoning the Student Program Office. Reserved seats are $3 and $2.60, general admission $2. A&M stu dents, student wives and public school students may buy $1 tickets. New York State Prof Accepts Post At Texas A&M negotiations for classroom teach ers. The official of 10 years tenure enumerated organization pro grams designed to assist educa tors. A Research Service Center is being set up under Phi Delta Kappa auspices to collect, store and index innovative educational material. “This center will be for local school systems’ use, provid ing a superintendent a source of information, for example, for in novative math education means at the upper elementary level for gifted students,” Bemis explained. A commission on strengthening the teaching profession, chaired by Dr. Tim Moore Stinnett of A&M, is compiling a bibliography for professional negotiations and, in cooperation with national Teacher Education and Profes sional Standards planning, is studying the “teacher dropout” problem. “Teachers formerly worked an average of 13 years,” the national officer commented. “They are leaving the teaching field after 11 years now. Men average only eight years in the profession, con siderably less than women.” He said industry and business are making inroads into teacher supply because of higher salaries. Cushing Library?s color print collection of 80 famous artists will go on loan for the spring semester Feb. 16, announced John B. Smith, assistant director. “Students may begin checking out the framed, ready-to-hang prints at 1 p.m. Thursday,” he said. “Pictures will be charged to individual students for the perij ending May 26.” Because of the limited sup] only one print per student be loaned, on a first-come baiij he added. Borrowers losing ^ damaging prints will be held sponsible for full replacetw cost of from $25 to $40. HE I WHATABURGER 1101 S.

It was formed in 1965 through the merger of two divisions of General Dynamics: the old Convair Division and the Astronautics Division, both in San Diego. The heritage of Convair dates back to aircraft production prior to and during World War II. In recent years the former Convair Division produced the Air Force F-102 and F-106 jet interceptors, the 880 and 990 jet transports, and the Little Joe solid rocket booster. The Astronautics Division was the home of the Atlas, the first free-world ICBM, and the subsequent development of the Atlas as one of the nations major space launch vehicles; many other aerospace and research programs were undertaken by Astronautics including Centaur—the first U.S. space rocket powered by liquid hydrogen. Company Description Convair is primarily involved in research, development and production connected with the aerospace industry. Its primary efforts are in complete systems and programs. The spectrum includes space launch vehicles, electronics systems, maneuverable re-entry vehicles, commer cial and military aircraft and oceanographic research. Major programs include the Atlas space launch vehicle; the Atlas/Centaur booster program used to put the Surveyor space craft on the moon; the design and installa tion of complete telemetering stations; conversion programs on Convair military and commercial aircraft; satellite research^ manned space systems, and oceanographic telemetering buoys. systems, systems analysis, space sciences, life sciences, information sciences, sci entific data processing, aeroballistics, dynamics, thermodynamics, guidance, structures, mechanical design, electrical design, reliability, test engineering and materials research. y 4 Opportunities The variety of Convair products requires engineering graduates at all degree levels with majors in aeronautic^Lelf^^il* electronic and mechanical engineering mechanics and engineering physics. Engineering orscience graduates will be assigned to the following areas: advanced Special Features and Attractions Convair offers outstanding fringe benefits including an Employee Savings and Stock Investment Plan to which the Company contributes as well as a Retirement Plan and Tuition Assistance Programs. Convair engineers can select from many company- sponsored educational assistance pro grams and determine for themselves which is best suited to their particular require ments. These programs, held in conjunction with four highly rated local colleges and universities, include a tuition refund plan, an irregular work week to permit college attendance, an advanced-degree work- study program, special courses and seminars, and Doctoral Fellowships, among others. One of the nice things about working at Convair is living in San Diego... one of the country’s truly great resort centers. With only 10 degrees difference between Janu ary and July highs, the sunny San Diego climate is pleasant throughout the year. Two great bays and 70 miles of ocean beaches provide all year aquatic sports and fishing. Exciting Mexico is just a few miles away. Nearby mountains, a world- famous zoo, and a marine park add to the fun... plus 64 golf courses for year ’round play. San Diego is an ideal family city with excellent schools. As the country’s 16th largest city, San Diego offers the best in cultural attractions, performing arts, pro fessional sports, and other entertainment.
