Barnes Platform
To Aid Education
“Education would be my main
concern if elected Lieutenant
Governor,” Democratic Candidate
Ben Barnes said in an interview
before making a non-political
speech to the A&M Women’s
Social Club Friday.
Barnes cited as examples some
of the bills that have come into
being during his tenure as Speak
er of the Texas House of Repre
sentatives. He said teachers’ sal
aries are higher than ever before
in the state’s history, and that
Texas is providing “a more well-
rounded education than any time
in the state’s history.
Referring to his previous ex
perience, which included two suc
cessive terms as speaker, Barnes
said, “I don't think my opponent
has near the experience that I
have.”
Barnes cited figures showing
Texas the the fourth largest state
in incoming revenues, but 44th in
the amount of school taxes the
state paid.
that Texans are responsible
enough to realize this.”
Barnes said contrary to asser
tions circulated by Doug DeCluitt,
his opponent, that he did not look
up on the office of Lieutenant
Governor “as a stepping-stone to
Washington.”
When asked what he would do
if Republican candidate for Gov
ernor Paul Eggers were elected,
Barnes had this comment:
“I can see no trouble in work
ing with Eggers if he thinks of
the people of Texas first and does
not use his victory to bolster the
Republican Party.”
HE SAID leadership in local
communities and Negro leaders
have worked together to provide
better understanding than in
most other states.
“The reason that more race
incidents have not occurred in
Texas is that Governor Connally
has reacted swiftly when there
have been symptoms of trouble,”
said Barnes.
THE HIGH illiteracy rate
among Negroes and Mexican-
I Americans was commented on by
I Barnes. He said that Negroes
and Mexican-Americans are being
inferiorly educated and local
school districts pay less money
in support of public school sys
tems than do localities in 46
other states.
“We can no longer afford the
luxury of living off the federal
government, we must assume our
I responsibilities,” he added. “New
J taxes will be needed and I think

O-graphers Study
Effects Of Gladys
Aggie oceanographers aboard
the university’s research ship
Alaminos will study the after
effects of Hurricane Gladys on
Gulf of Mexico waters.
Additional research in gulf pri
mary productivity and equisys-
stems also will be made on the
13-day cruise involving scientists
from Mexico, Norway and the
University of Florida.
Members of the ship’s scientific
complement will be Dr. Sayed Z.

Richard A. Geyer and Dr. Guy

Knox To Address
Marketing Society
The marketing Society will
meet tonight at 7:30 p.m. in
Rooms 2A and B of the Memorial
Student Center.
Royce Knox, ’64, assistant re
gional manager of Hunt-Wesson
Food Inc., will address the group.
All students are invited to at
tend, according to Ken Sluis,
publicity chairman.
R. Hasle of Oslo, Norway, A&M
Visiting professor for the next
six months.
ON THE FIRST leg of the
cruise, the Alaminos will pick up
two Mexican scientists at the
Marine Biological Institute at
Veracruz.
“The ship will then steam along
a diagonal course across the gulf
toward Tampa, Fla.,” noted El-
Sayed.
Franceschini, who made a simi
lar cruise two years ago to study
effects of Hurricane Inez will
determine hydrography changes
at the same stations the ship oc
cupied in the 1966 investigation.
He recently reported earlier
findings at a German symposium.
El-Sayed said the diagonal
course will fill gaps of previous
productivity research in the
Northeast and Western Gulf- Dr.
Hasle, specialist on Antarctic di
atoms, will make a comparative
study on the Gulf organisms.
HOPKINS’ WORK will be on
the feeding relationship of phyto
plankton and organisms which
depend on them. The second pro
ducers study will involve small
fishes and crustaceans.
