Boyd To Address
TTI Conference
Transportation Secretary Alan
Boyd will visit the research facili
ties of Texas A&M’s Texas Trans
portation Thstitute March 28 pri
or to addressing the university’s
10th annual transportation confer
ence.
Maj. Gen. John P. Doyle (USAJF-
Ret.) of A&M’s MacDonald Chair
of Transportation, conference
chairman, said Boyd will tour the
university’s Research Annex
shortly- after his 9 a.m. arrival
from Washington.
TTI Director Jack Keese will
head a team briefing the secre
tary on various projects of the in
stitute. Among the programs to

be covered are “break - away”
posts and poles, impact attenua
tion devices, freeway lighting,
traffic surveillance, skid resist
ance and railroad grade-cross
ings.
The TTI team also will ex
plain plans for the institute’s new
Highway Safety Research Center
which officials here hope will
eventually be designated the Na
tional Highway Safety Center or
one of the regional centers.
Boyd’s noon address highlights
opening-day activities for the two-
day conference co-sponsored by
the Transportation Association of
America.
Approximately 200 prominent
transport leaders from industry
and government will attend the
meeting, Doyle said.
Theme of the session is “Up-
da t i n g Transportation Law.”
Doyle noted the controversial top
ic was selected in anticipation of
federal legislative and executives
activities in this area within the
next few years.
Boyd will be accompanied by
his wife, a military aide and at
least one other assistant.

Howard University Closes,
Students Demand Changes
WASHINGTON (^—Predomi
nantly Negro Howard University
shut down indefinitely Wednes
day after several hundred stu
dents keeping tight control of the
administration building prepared
for a second straight lie-in night.
The students, demanding broad
changes in the school’s operations,
including “black education,” said
they would not leave until the uni
versity drops any planned discipli
nary action against 30 students
who disrupted a Charter Day pro
gram on the campus March 1.
University officials including
the president, James M. Nabrit
Jr., would not make themselves
available to newsmen but issued a
statement saying parents of all
students had been notified that
classes and other school activities
have been suspended.
“The university will exert every
effort to reopen the university at
the earliest possible time and will
continue to explore and consider
all means of resolving the prob
lem of the students’ protest and
unrest,” the statement said.
University officials made no
attempt to enter the building dur
ing the day. Their statement was
issued by a public relations
spokesman who declined to iden
tify the authors.
Outside several hundred stu
dents rallied during the day. The
group included about half a dozen
faculty members and about 10
white students.
At the Charter Day ceremonies,
a group of militants went to the
podium and listed various student
demands.
Anthony Conducts
Plastic Research
A project in plastics and syn
thetic rubber research titled “Ki
netics of Homogeneous Anionic
Polymerization” is in progress at
Texas A&M under the direction
of Dr. Rayford G. Anthony, as
sistant professor of Chemical En
gineering, the principal investiga
tor.
The study is funded by a Na
tional Science Foundation two-
year grant, which was awarded
to the Texas A&M Research
Foundation.
Objective of the research, ac
cording to Dr. Anthony, is to
verify theories concerning the
molecular weight distribution
curves of three “high” polymers—
styrene, isoprene, and butadiene.
Determination of kinetic para
meters which are used in the vari
ous theories will allow more ef
ficient operation of reactors mak
ing the three polymers. Condi
tions may be predicted for pro
ducing a polymer with specified
mechanical properties.
Laboratory polymerization re
actions in the presence of differ
ent solvents will be conducted.
The molecular weight distribu
tion will be determined^ by use
of Gel Permeation Chromatogra
phy.
Dr. C. D. Holland, head of the
Department of Chemical Engine
ering, will act as consultant on
the project.
Research assistants are James
L. Kuester, Ph.D. candidate, and
Gene Teaney, master of engineer
ing student. Both have previous
petrochemical industrial experi
ence.
Dr. Anthony received B.S. and
M. S. degrees in chemical engine
ering from Texas A&M and his
doctorate from the University of
Texas. He held research engineer
ing positions at Petroleum Chemi
cals, Inc. and Sun Oil before as
suming his present position in
1966.
The work is seen as a contri
bution to Texas A&M's expanding
capability to polymer research.
CATE Center
Sets Unique
Tele-Lecture
Texas A&M’s blackboard-by-
wire network will be put to the
test Saturday when the Creative
Application of Technology to Edu
cation (CATE) Center here re
lays a lecture from Washington,
D. C., to 15 south-central Texas
sites.
Dr. Thomas J. Moffett, CATE
director, said the tele-lecture by
Dr. J. Lloyd Trump will be the
first of its type in the nation,
considering the relay aspect and
large number of sites involved.
The talk by Dr. Trump, associ
ate secretary of the National
Association of Secondary School
Principals and author of numer
ous professional books, will be
presented “live” to principals and
teachers assembled in classrooms
in an area stretching from Hunts
ville to Heame and Navasota.
Dr. Trump’s 9 a.m. lecture will
cover innovative practices for edu
cators in improving curriculum
and instruction.
Moffett pointed out that tele
lectures are frequently conducted
between two points, but in this
case the operation will involve 17
locations and a relay capability.
He explained the one-hour relay
will be accomplished by using
back-to-back tape recorders at the
CATE Center on the A&M cam
pus. The system will require only
a one-second lag between the time
Dr. Trump speaks in Washington
and the time his voice is heard
in the various classrooms.

“This will demonstrate the ca
pability and versatility of a tele
lecture system to reach large
numbers of people spread over a
wide area,” Moffett noted.
“With Dr. Trump’s edmmit-
ments, it would be extremely dif
ficult to bring him to the A&M
campus,” Moffett explained, “and
it would be practically impossible
to make him available in person
to the various schools served by
our network.”
Utilizing these new electronic
techniques, however, he pointed
out it is how possible to make
available such a national resource
person to small as well as large
schools.
Moffett noted CATE has dupli
cated a series of color slides which
will be shown in each of class
rooms when directions are given
by the speaker. Material drawn
from Dr. Trump’s talk also has
been duplicated and will be avail
able to the participants.
Schools receiving the lecture
are A&M Consolidated in College
Station, Allen Military Academy,
Stephen F. Austin in Bryan, Bren-
ham Kemp, Caldwell, Yoe in
Cameron, Crockett, Hearne,
Huntsville, Madisonville, Nava
sota, Rockdale, Snook and Somer
ville.
The lecture also will be pre
sented to a group of A&M pro
fessors and invited guests at the
CATE Center, Moffett said.
A&M’s 15-school blackboard-
by-wire network is the largest of
its kind in the nation. It is con
ducted through a federal grant to
the A&M Consolidated School
District.
