THE BATTALION
Friday, December 1, 1967
College Station, Texas
Page 3
State Rep. G. F. (Gus) Mut
scher of Brenham urged a new
and tough approach to lawless
ness on state and national levels
here Thursday night.
‘‘We should begin to take steps
to protect ourselves against the
rapidly increasingly rate of
crime,” Mutscher declared. “Other
countries with lower living stand
ards do not accept high crime
rates. Neither should we.”
Mutscher, learing candidate for
speaker of the House of Repre
sentatives spoke to the Texas
Association of College and Uni
versity Traffic and Security De
partments meeting at Texas
A&M.

“Crimes which keep many Am
ericans behind locked doors at
night are relatively rare in for
eign countries because their police
and courts crack down hard,” he
added. “Their law enforcement
authorities command more re
spect. Justice is more firm and
the rights of society are at least
on the equal with the rights of
criminals.”
VIEW FROM THE TOP
American forces move toward the crest of Hill 875 at Dak To, South Vietnam, where
a 21-day battle saw at least 285 Americans die. The central hig-hlands hill is said to be
completly lacking in strategic value to the enemy, who lost more than 1,400 men, accord
ing to U. S. sources. Allied commanders privately confess they do not know why the
enemy chose to fight this battle. (AP Wirephoto)
Mutscher contended that Amer
icans ignore a simple and uncom
plicated truth regarding philoso
phy of crime and lawlessness. No
rational man, he explained, would
be inclined to attempt a crime
if he had good reason to believe
it would result in punishment.
Entomology Head Named
Winner Of National Award
The solon said the necessary re
sponse to increasing crime is
better training for law officers.
“It has become increasingly evi
dent,” Mutscher said, “That there
is a need for a highly specialized
training program for our police.”

Dr. Perry L. Adkisson, acting
head of the Texas A&M Ento
mology Department, has received
the J. Everett Bussart Memorial
Award for 1967.
The award was presented
Thursday morning by the Ento
mological Society of America dur
ing its annual meeting Nov. 27-30
in New York City.
Adkisson was presented a $1,-
000 check and an engraved plaque
in recognition of “outstanding re
search in economic entomology
conducted in North America and
U. S. possesions.”
The annual award was estab
lished in 1965 by the Velsicol,
Chemical Corporation of Chicago,
111., where Bussart was chief en
tomologist. Adkisson is the sec
ond national winner of the honor.
The A&M entomologist is re
cognized internationally for his
work in insect ecology and has
received much credit in helping
stop the westward migration of
the cotton boll weevil.
Adkisson is best known for his
research on photoperiodic control
of insect diapause (dormancy)
and has published several papers
on the subject. Photoperiodism,
often called biological clock, is
the response of an insect to light
and darkness, and to the long
days of summer and the short
days of winter.
The Bussart Award to Adkis
son is based mostly on the scien
tist’s studies of the effect of
photoperiod on diapause and its
application to insect control.
He was selected as a Senior
Postdoctoral Fellow for study at
Harvard University from 1963-64.
Next, he was elected a Fellow of
the American Association for the
Advancement of Science in 1964.
That same year, he was presented
the Faculty Distinguished
Achievement Award for Research
by the A&M Association of For
mer Students.

Johnson Claims 6 Time Right’
For McNamara’s Departure
By BOB HORTON
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) — Presi
dent Johnson was described
Thursday as feeling the time has
become “propitious,” or favorable,
for Secretary of Defense Robert
S. McNamara’s departure from
the Pentagon.
Why he reached this decision
at this particular time, remains
the unanswered question.
Official statements were issued
by both men but they shed little
light on why the 51-year-old Pen
tagon chief should be relieved
now when he made clear he would
stay longer.
Sources, reminded that McNa
mara’s move to the World Bank
could have been delayed until as
late as Dec. 31, 1968, said merely
that the President had come to
feel the proper moment had ar
rived for letting him go-as Mc-
namara was interested in doing.
That the President authorized
the placing of McNamara’s name
before World Bank directors
without informing him at the time
was confirmed by George Chris
tian, White House press secre
tary. Christian said George D.
Woods, the outgoing bank presi
dent, informed McNamara of the
latter’s nomination, but he did
not know whether this was be
fore or after it was actually sub
mitted.
McNamara and Johnson had
discussed the matter in mid-Oc
tober, however, even to the point
of mulling over possible succes
sors to the Pentagon job. Never
theless, after word of McNa
mara’s nomination leaked out
Monday Sen. Edward M. Ken
nedy, D-Mass., questioned publicly
whether McNamara was being
eased out of the administration.
McNamara associates outside
the Pentagon portray him as sur
prised he was being mustered out
so quickly. But a McNamara co
worker detected no surprise in
McNamara’s reactions the past
few days-in fact-found him more
casual and relaxed.
McNamara friends in the Capi
tol put forth the thesis that John
son was easing- McNamara off
into a public service post where
he would be forced into silence
about Vietnam war policy.
Pentagon associates of the de
fense chief reject this idea. True,
McNamara might be a political
target in the presidential cam
paign, but this could also work
to the President’s advantage.
“Share the heat - that’s the
standard thing in this govern
ment,” one official said. “A presi
dent needs lots of targets around
him to absorb the lightning.”
Asked whether McNamara was
leaving by his own choice, Phil
G. Goulding, Pentagon press of
ficer, said in somewhat of an un
derstatement: “The inference I
get is he intends to assume the
duties of a new job.” And, after
a pause: “Of course, he’s leaving
on his own volition.”
Goulding said the biggest part
of McNamara’s budget work could
be out of the way by about March.
White House sources did not
discount the possibility, however,
that the president might move
much more quickly in proposing
a successor to Congress—perhaps
by mid-December.
Naval Reserve Officer Unit
Adds Five New Members Here
Naval Reserve Research Com
pany 8-3, a unit for Naval Re
serve Officers in the Bryan-Col-
lege Station area, has recently
added five new members.
Lt. Cmdr. William R. Smith, a
professor in the school of Busi
ness Administration, joined the
unit from Rochester, New York,
where he was commanding officer
of a similar unit.
who is currently a professor of
Forestry and Range Science, came
here from the Agricultural Ex
periment Station at Louisiana
State University. Prior to coming,
Merrifield was commanding offi
cer of a reserve unit in Ruston,
Louisiana.
Back from Vietnam is Lt. Van
Eaton, a superintendent for con
struction for R. B. Butler. He
served near Da Nang with U. S.
Mobil Construction Battalion Six,
whose mission was to support the
Marines, and construct cantone-
ments galleys and food storage
facilities. He is a 59 graduate of
A&M in Civil Engineering.
Also joining the unit are Lt.
(jg'-) William Wardle, a graduate
student in Marine Biology; and
Lt. F. J. Trost, assistant profes
sor in the School of Architecture.
Before coming to A&M, Wardle
was stationed in Morroco with
the U. S. Navy and Trost was a
private architect.
Lt. Cmdr. Robert Merrifield,
The research unit meets at 7:30
p.m. Monday in Room 209 of the
Petroleum Engineering building
on campus. All Naval Reserve
officers in the area who wish to
affiliate with a unit should con
tact R. M. Olson, commanding of
ficer of the local unit.
