College Station, Texas Thursday, October 12, 1967
Safety Program Saves Life
Confab To Look
At Ocean Needs
How can properly trained scien
tists and engineers be provided
for a rapidly burgeoning disci
pline that builds upon such basic
fields as biology, geology, physics
and chemistry ?
Manpower needs for exploring
one of the world’s least studied
frontiers will be examined in a
“Manpower for Oceanography”
educational symposium at Hous
ton’s Shamrock Hilton Nov. 20-21.
The nation-wide symposium
sponsored by the American So
ciety for Oceanography and Gulf
Universities Research Corp. will
pool thinking of officials from the
U.S.’s key oceanographic institu
tions, industry and government.
AREAS OF inquiry will probe
the heart of the oceanography
problem:
—How may enough of the right
people be attracted to ocean sci
ence and engineering?
—How may contact be main
tained with them so these persons
can be assisted in building the
proper educational backgrounds?
—How may they best be pre
pared for professional and tech
nical positions in the field ?
The symposium packs educa
tional power to sink an iceberg.
Possible solutions will be dis
cussed by Edward Wenk Jr., exec
utive secretary of the National
Council on Marine Resources and
Engineering Development; Rob
ert Abel, head of the National
Science Foundation office of sea
grant programs, and Capt. T. K.
Treadwell, Naval Oceanographic
Office deputy commander, among
others.
SCRIPPS Institution director Wil
liam A. Nierenberg, Woods Hole
Institution director Paul M. Fye
and Richard A. Geyer, head of
Texas A&M’s oceanography de
partment, will discuss oceanogra
phic manpower’s recruiting, pres
ent status and future require
ments.

Staffer Named
New Entomology
Department Head
Dr. Perry L. Adkisson, a staff
member of the Texas A&M Uni
versity Entomology Department
since 1958, has been named pro
fessor and acting head of that
department.
He replaces Dr. J. C. Gaines
who has been appointed chief of
party for the A&M’s U. S. Agen
cy for International Development
(AID) contract group in East
Pakistan.
Dr. H. O. Kunkel, acting dean
of the College of Agriculture and
acting director of the Texas Agri
cultural Experiment Station, said
Adkisson is an outstanding au
thority in insect ecology and is
recognized internationally.
“Dr. Adkisson deserves much
credit for the federal-state efforts
that stopped the westward migra
tion of the boll weevil. By invi
tation, he has lectured at the
NATO Advanced Study Institute
and International Summer School
on Circadian Clocks in Germany,
at the Agricultural University of
Wageningen in the Netherlands,
at Washington State College, and
at other institutions,” Kunkel
said.

grams at undergraduate levels
and conversion of degree holders
in other fields to oceanography
will be voiced, by renowned edu
cators from Washington, Nebras
ka, California, Oregon and Flori
da. The concept of introducing
oceanogi’aphic materials in sec
ondary schools will be presented.
Congressman Paul Rogers of
Florida will discuss “Human Re
sources and National Goals.”
SPEAKERS FROM industry,
government and scientific insti
tutions will outline educational
backgrounds preferred for ocean
ographic personnel and antici
pated manpower requirements.
They will include Cecil H. Green
of Geophysical Service Inc. and
Texas Instruments and Andeas B.
Rechnitzer, North American Avia
tion.
Findings will be avidly pursued
by officials of nearly 800 U. S.
universities that submitted pro
posals under the government’s sea
grant act, similar to land grant
college legislation.
Dale F. Leipper, American So
ciety for Oceanography president,
said symposia presentations will
be compiled into an ASO publica

Recent revisions in the safety
program of the Texas A&M Phys
ical plant might be accredited
with preventing a serious injury
to a young electrician recently.
Lloyd Webb, employed by the
electrician shop at the Physical
Plant, sustained minor cuts and
bruises and a headache from a
blow to the back of the head
which could have caused a con
cussion or serious fracture.
Webb, who has only recently
been employed by the Physical
Plant, was loosening a pin on the
cable of a truck when the ‘A’
frame came loose and hit him in
the back of the head knocking him
to the ground. He was examined
at the University Hospital and
released back to work the same day.
Credit for preventing any seri
ous injury can be attributed to the
plastic hard hat which the safety
program had advised all its
workers to wear while on the job.
Had he not been wearing the
hard hat at the time of the acci
dent, said Robert A. Jenkins,
Planning Engineer for the Physi
cal Plant, he could have been very
seriously injured.
Hard hats is only one of many
new safety devices which workers
are advised to equip themselves
with while on the job. Other
safety features include goggles,
gloves and special protective
glasses.
John Fritz, a senior Industrial
Technology major at A&M, cant*
given the credit for revising out
old safety program, Jenkins slat. „
