Sunde said the decline in num bers of poultry departments is a paradoxicol trend, considering the size and scope of the poultry industry in the United States and other countries. U. S. colleges and universities had 44 departments of poultry science in 1960, the speaker said. From 1961-67, one or more de partments have been lost each year. The 44 figure has now dropped to about 27. How can the poultry science profession boost its influence ? Here are some of Sunde’s sug gestions : Strive toward excellence in teaching and use experienced teachers. “You must convince students that you are dedicated to the in dustry,” he emphasized. Image improvement is needed by showing other scientists that the poultry scientist is a true bi ologist. POULTRY department mem bers should attend faculty meet ings faithfully and work toward committee appointments. Mem bership in various professional organizations is helpful. There is a need for more citizen participation in local, state and national politics. Always strive for co-operation between poultry research and the needs of private industry. The keynote address was titled “Early Travels of the Chicken” and was given by Dr. George F. Carter, distinguished professor of geography at A&M, Tuesday morning. KRUEGER SAID a special business program feature was a symposium Wednesday on ‘‘The Types of Marketing Orders for the Poultry Industry and What They Might Provide.” Arrange ments were made for a telephone hookup to allow Georgia Senator H. E. Talmadge to speak from Washington, D. C., on present legislation before Congress. Social activities are many and varied for PSA members and their families, Krueger added. These include tours of the Na tional Aeronautics and Space Ad ministration (NASA), the Astro dome and Astroworld, all in Houston; the Hemisfair in San Antonio, and a tour of the A&M campus and plantation. Another added attraction was a Texas style barbecue Tuesday evening. The feast was followed by the famed, three-screen color slide presentation of “The Mur der of Silence,” which shows how man can spoil his environment. Krueger said three and a half A&M dormitories and 126 motel rooms are occupied by PSA mem bers and guests. The Poultry Science Associa tion last met at Texas A&M in 1934. Dr. J. H. Quisenberry, head of the A&M Poultry Science De partment, was the organization’s president from 1956-56. Dr. C. B. Ryan of the same department has been PSA secretary since 1954. Albritton Named To System Board Bryan industrialist Ford D. Al britton Jr. has been appointed a member of the Texas A&M Uni versity System Board of Direc tors by Gov. John Connally. A 1943 graduate of Texas A&M and president-elect of its Association of Former Students, Albritton will fill the unexpired term of Gardiner Symonds of Houston who has resigned. Albritton, 47, is president and chairman of the board of Albrit ton Engineering Corporation, the nation’s third largest manufac turer of aluminum windows and doors. He has long been one of the university’s most ardent support ers and has provided financial assistance to several A&M pro grams, including athletics and scholarships. Earlier this year, Albritton Engineering and Reynolds Met als Co. presented the university a large aluminum work of art de picting space flight to grace the entrance to the institution’s new Olin E.
