THE BATTALION
Two Colleges,
20,000 Aggies
Seen For 1976
Growth of Texas A&M through
1976 will include two additional
colleges, an anual budget of $200
million, 20,000 students and $50
million in new construction, Dr.
Wayne C. Hall predicted recently.
The academic vice president
and graduate dean told the Brazos
County A&M Club of projections
for A&M’s future.
“Texas A&M has enjoyed sound
growth thus far and we look for
orderly increases in students, fac
ulty and facilities,” he said. “Our
graduate school, for example, may
number 6,000 by A&M’s centen
nial—almost three times its cur
rent number. We now produce
150 Ph.Ds per year. By 1976 that
figure may be 250.”
The dean suggested program
emphasis would continue in fields
of engineering, veterinary medi
cine and the sciences with addi
tional thrust for liberal arts.
“A great university needs hu
manistic fields to support tech
nical areas,., he pointed out to
local A&M former students and
their wives.
Hall also explained the need
for graduate programs.
“If an institution of higher edu
cation is to survive, it must be
known as a major research and
graduate center,” he said. “It is
a matter of financial support.
The state legislature puts a pre
mium on formula dollars for
graduate programs, up to 20 times
the rate for doctoral students as
for undergraduates.
“I am confident A&M will con
tinue its emphasis on strong un
dergraduate programs,” the vice
president added. “But entrance
requirements will no doubt be
come increasingly difficult. And
many of our undergraduates of
the future will come as transfers
from junior colleges.
Hall noted the master plan for
A&M called for colleges in archi
tecture and education within two
years. Adding these to the newly
formed Colege of Business and
the six now in existence (en
gineering, science, geosciences,
liberal arts, veterinary medicine
and agriculture) A.& M would
have nine degree-granting divi
sions by 1970, he anticipated.

NEW RESEARCH PLANT
Dr. W. W. Meinke, head of Texas A&M’s Chemurgic Re
search Laboratory, examines a hake fish which is being
used to produce fish protein concentrate in a new pilot-
research plant at the university’s Research Annex. The
plant and study are financed by SWECO, a Los Angeles
food industry equipment manufacturer.
“Victim of Plot,”
Says Glue-sniffer
GEORGETOWN, Tex. <A») —
James Wolcott was suffering
from delusions that his parents
and sister were trying to destroy
him when he shot them to death
in the family home Aug. 5, a
psychiatrist testified Wednesday.
Dr. E. Wayne Goff, Austin,
said he felt Wolcott, 16, was suf
fering from “a schizophrenic ill
ness of a paranoid type” both
now and at the time of the three
slayings.
Young Wolcott was charged
with murder in the shooting
deaths of Dr. Gordon Wolcott,
biology professor at Southwest
ern University here, his wife and
their daughter, Elizabeth, 17. He
is being tried only in the father’s
death.
Goff said Wolcott told him that
in November, 1966, he suffered
a deep depresion and wanted to
kill himself. But, Goff said, Wol
cott was afraid to do so.
Later, he continued, the boy
told him he developed a general
feeling of being threatened which
developed about two weeks be
fore the slayings into a feeling
that “a conspiracy was at work
to drive him out of his mind,
drive him insane, destroy him.”
“Then it became pinpointed on
his family—his mother, father
and sister,” Goff said.
Wolcott told him, Goff related,
that he sniffed glue before shoot
ing his family.
A fish protein concentrate pi-
lot-research plant is now in opera
tion at Texas A&M, Howard W.
Wright Jr., SWECO president,
announced Wednesday.
The plant, funded by SWECO,
a food industry equipment manu
facturer, is jointly operated by
the company and the University’s
Chemurgic Research Laboratory.
Fish protein concentrate (FPC)
is a diet supplement which holds
promise of alleviating malnutri
tion in many parts of the world.
It is a light tan powder, virtually
odorless and tasteless, which con
tains more than 80 per cent of
a balanced animal protein and
several nutritionally beneficial
minerals.
The FPC pilot plant will pur
sue the following objectives: 1)
determine plant design and equip
ment specifications for future
large-volume, commercial produc
tion of FPC, using a single sol
vent extraction system (isopropyl
alcohol) process, 2) produce suf
ficient test quantities of FPC for
food incorporation and market
evaluation studies by interested
industries, 3) investigate the fea
sibility of using a variety of fish
for the commercial production of
FPC, and 4) conduct an intensive
test program to determine the
most economical method for pro
ducing high-quality FPC on a
mass production basis.
“The single solvent FPC ex
traction process we are using in
the SWECO-Texas A&M pilot
plant is the same process devel
oped by the Bureau of Commer
cial Fisheries in its own labora
tories,” said Mr. Wright. “We
have scaled-up the BCF process
to learn more about the design
and operation of plants required
for large-volume, commercial pro
duction of FPC.”
Dr. W. W. Meinke, head of the
university’s Chemurgic Research
Laboratory, said that “The addi
tion of small quantities of fish
protein concentrate supplies cer
tain essential amino acids not
available i n vegetable proteins
contained in wheat and rice flour
—thereby providing a balanced
diet.”
The U. S. Food and Drug Ad
ministration approved FPC, pro
duced from hake, and hake-like
fish, for human consumption in
February, 1967. In addition t o
Hughes announces new
openings on the
TECHNICAL STAFF.
Assignments exist for Engineers
graduating in 1967 with B.S.,
M.S. and Ph.D degrees in
ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING.
HUGHES-FULLERTON Engineering
Laboratories assignments range from
research to hardware development
and operational support of products
and systems in the field. Our current
activities involve the advanced tech
nologies of phased-array frequency
scanning radar systems, real-time
general purpose computers, displays,
data processing, satellite and surface
communications systems, surface-to-
air missile systems, and tactical air
weapons command/control systems.

working with hake, the SWECO-
Texas A&M pilot plant will ex
plore the possibility of converting
other species of fish, such as men
haden, herring and anchovy, to
FPC. Refrigerated storage capac
ity for ten tons of fish will en
able the pilot plant to make long
test runs on a variety of species.
The pilot plant, designer by
J. Paul Miller, SWECO chief pro
cess engineer, is being operated
under Dr. Meinke’s direction, and
represents a coordinated univer
sity-industry research enterprise.
In addition to the FPC pilot plant,
Texas A&M University is engaged
in a variety of other programs re
lated to development of ocean re
sources.
