Latin American smoke-eaters are battling blazes and August heat at the week-long school con ducted by the Texas Engineering Extension Service. Chief Instructor Henry D. Smith and his talented staff in cluding safety specialists from all over the continent are mov ing fast to keep up with 125 participants from Mexico to Colombia. “We will probably have to split it into two one-week schools for industrial and municipal person nel next year,” observed Smith. AN OIL WELL “Christmas tree” belches flame and asbestos suited firemen from south of the border whose figures shimmer from the heat of the fire and an early afternoon Texas sun wrestle a hose adjusted for an almost mist-like spray to within inches to extinguish the roar. The session over, Jorge Sau cedo takes the PA microphone and with a few Spanish phrases sends the fire-fighters scurrying to new stations to learn tech niques of dousing LPG, petroleum tanks, automobile and structural fires. Two men in black rubber boots and asbestos pants and coats run to the next station. A. G. Ainsworth, owner of a Luling propane business, said the Mexican, Puerto Rican, Colom bian, Dominican Republic and Nicaraguan — to name a few — fire-fighting specialists keep him on his toes. AINSWORTH, chairman of the Governor-appointed Texas Good Neighbor Commission, is assist ing TEES personnel with instruc tion, as is Raul Gandara, chief of Puerto Rico Fire Service; Saucedo, manager of Mexico’s National Safety Congress, and Jose A. Padilla-Garcia, Nicara guan National Institute for Fire Prevention and Control chief in spector. “The men are the most inter ested I’ve worked with here,” Ainsworth added. “They ask mighty astute questions.” “This group is made up largely of departmental supervisors or engineers, and one man owns a large industrial plant,” Smith added. “Most of them have received considerable technical training in plant operations,” pointed out Gandara, who heads 98 fire de partments in Puerto Rico. “FIFTEEN are on Internation al Fire Chiefs Association schol arships,” Gandara commented. “Each is sponsored by industry contribution.” Salaries of Ainsworth, who achieved special permission for the U. S. visitors to attend the school without passport clear ance, Garcia, Saucedo and Gan dara are cared for by their cities, organizations or firms. Ains worth and his father, who was associated with the school 18 years, provide all the LPG equip ment and supplies. “Without this cooperation, it would be impossible for the uni versity to conduct the school,” Smith said. “The committee is very inter ested in anything that improves U. S. relations with Latin Ameri ca,” Ainsworth injected. “Noth ing has done this better than the Latin American Firemen’s Train ing School.” ALAMOGORDO, N. M., fire chief J. D. Wilkinson vowed fire safety and prevention is the hard est job in the world. “People aren’t interested in safety until they reach the point of danger,” he observed. B-CS High School Students Take Top Workshop Awards Bryan-College Station students fared well in Texas A&M’s 10th annual High School Publications Workshop competition, winning four first places, three seconds and a third in newspaper and yearbook divisions. Results of judging for the week-long session were announced at a Friday awards program by Jack D. Boggan, assistant pro fessor of journalism and work shop coordinator. Exa Ellis and Karen Folter- mann, both of Bryan’s Stephen F. Austin High, tied with Sue Kresse of Houston Sharpstown for pre paration of the best show during the workshop. Miss Ellis is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gus A. Ellis, 114 Greenway. Miss Foltermann’s parents are Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Foltermann of 1506 East 25th. Lee Anne Darroch of A&M Consolidated captured first in the newspaper category for speech coverage. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Darroch, 117 Neal Pickett. Miss Ellis also tied for third place with Janice Monger of Beaumont Forest Park High in editorial writing. In the yearbook division, Ste phen F. Austin’s “Bronco” won first places for cover design and dummy and second honors for motif, layout dealing with action and layout dealing with both action and people. A&M’s workshop this year at tracted 207 participants from 40 Texas schools. Anderson Attends Australian Meet Dr. Warren B. Anderson of the Soil and Crop Sciences Depart ment will represent Texas A&M at the ninth International Con gress of Soil Science Aug. 5-16 in Adelaide, Australia. While on the trip, the agrono mist will also visit agricultural research centers in Hawaii, New Zealand, the Philippine Islands and Japan. An $800 grant from the Nation al Science Foundation and funds from the Texas Agricultural Ex periment Station will finance the trip. Anderson will leave College Station July 8. His first tour stop is the Hawaii Agricultural Ex periment Station. While there, he will consult with soil scientists at the Sugar Planters Founda tion and the University of Hawaii. Next are pre-congress soil sci ence tours in New Zealand and in agricultural areas of Australia before arriving in Adelaide. After the congress, the agrono mist will travel to the Interna tional Rice Research Institute and Agricultural Experiment Station n?ar Manila in the Philippines. His last stop before returning home late in August will be the Central Agricultural Experiment Station in Japan.
