Summer is now be ginning in the southern hemi sphere and the continent’s vast ice shelves are “calving” giant- size icebergs and choking the sur rounding sea with milky rubble.

Boswell, will be a principal speaker at the 13th an nual Conference on Water for Texas, Dr. Jack R. Runkles an nounced. Runkles pointed out Boswell’s address will include “future plans of the Texas Water Development Board.” Runkles is acting director of the A&M Water Resources Insti tute, which sponsors the confer ence. Runkles announced earlier that Reuben J. Johnson, national Wa ter Resources Council deputy di rector, will be keynoter for the one and a half day conference scheduled Nov. 25-26 in the Mem orial Student Center. Theme for the conference will be “M e e t i n g Texas Water Needs.” A welcoming address will be given by Horace Byers, vice pres ident for academic affairs. Also appearing on .opening morning sessions are Leon Hill, regional director of the Bureau of Reclamation, Amarillo, and Maj. Gen. C. C. Haug, Southwest Division Engineer, Army Corps of Engineers, Dallas. Hill is scheduled to discuss “The Reclamation Program for West Texas and Eastern New Mexico.” Haug will present the corps’ “Studies of Texas Water Development.” A native of Commanche County, Texas, Boswell graduated from A&M with a major in agricultural education. He has done gradu ate work at Colorado State Uni versity and Iowa State College. He served as superintendent of schools and vocational agriculture teacher at Harrold in Wilbar ger County, and later served at Breckenridge High School. Boswell became area supervisor of vocational agriculture in the State Department of Education in 1937, later joining the Soil Conservation Service at Vernon. He was promoted to district con servationist in 1942 at Seymour and in 1944 was named assistant state conservationist at Temple. He was named executive direc tor of the association of Texas Soil Conservation Districts in 1954 and became executive secre tary in 1962. ed current meters that were dropped into the Weddell Sea last year. Capurro recently returned from a research cruise off Argentina and Brazil on which he was study ing currents and water masses in the Southwest Atlantic. STRAW VOTE (Continued From Page 1) marked Nixon as the winner with G98 votes or 39 per cent of the 1879 ballots cast. Other candi date percentages were Johnson, 18.4; McCarthy, 9.3; Kennedy, 8.5; Wallace, 8.3; Reagan, 7.1; Rockefeller, G; Lindsey, 1.8; Per cy, 1.3; Hatfield, 0.3; Martin Lu ther King, 0.2; Halstead and Stassen, 0.1. As part of election day activi ties, the Political Forum set up television sets in the MSC tuned to each of the three major net works. As returns came in they were marked on blackboards by Political Forum members so that students would have the latest information available. HOWARD BOSWELL As executive secretary, Bos well served as administrator of the $400 million Water Develop ment Fund. In 1966 voters ap proved expanded use of the board, permitting it to construct water treatment and water transmis sion facilities. He was named to his present position in January 1968. Former Gov. Allan Shivers in 1955 appointed Boswell to the State Water Resources Commit tee, an interim group created by the Legislature to study and make recommendations on water legislation.” Ferguson Put On Board Of Editors Dr. Charles E. Ferguson, Eco nomics Department professor, has been appointed to the “American Economic Review” board of edi tors. The review is the official pub lication of the American Eco nomic Association, noted Dr. M. L. Greenhut, department head. Ferguson, who joined the fac ulty this fall, also is on the board of editors, Southern Economic Journal, and an editorial collab orator, Journal of the American Statistics Association. A revised edition of his text “Microeconomic Theory” will be published by England’s Cam bridge University Press under the new title, “Neoclassical Theory of Production and Distri bution.” we w ere happy with the world the way it is, we wouldn't need you. Kids choke on polluted air. Streets are jammed by cars with no place to go. Lakes and rivers are a common dumping ground for all kinds of debris. This is the way the world is, but it’s not the way it has to be. Air pollution can be controlled. Better transpor tation systems can be devised. There can be an almost unlimited supply of clean water. People at General Electric are already working on these problems. And on other problems that need to be solved. Problems like developing more efficient ways of providing power to our cities and figuring out ways our production capabilities can keep up with our population needs. But we need more people. We need help from a lot of young engineers and scientists; and we need help from business and liberal arts graduates who understand people and their problems. If you want to help change the world, we’d like to talk to you. We’ll be visiting campus soon. Why not drop by the placement office and arrange for an interview? You might be able to turn a problem into an opportunity. ELECTRIC An equal opportunity employer GENERAL JOE FAULK ’32 21 years in Bryan 402 West 25th St. Ph. 823-0939 Bryan, Texas
