Diplomats On YMCA Launches A&M Drive
National Board To Give Christmas To Needy
Two A&M veterinarians have »
Two A&M veterinarians have
been certified as diplomats of the
American College of Veterinary
Microbiologists.
They are Dr. Richard J. Hidal
go and Dr. Charles W. Living
ston of the College of Veterinary
Medicine’s veterinary microbiolo
gy department.
Dean A. A. Price noted that
certification means “both men
have passed a written board ex
amination and are declared mem
bers of the national board.”
Response to an appeal to help
needy Bryan - College Station
families have a real Christmas
is underway with the first major
donation by YMCA officers.
Aggies Tuesday gave nine doz
en boxes of chocolate mints to
the drive, said Col. Logan Wes
ton.

Police Training Division Chief
Says College Degree Needed
Livingston earned his B.S. de
gree from Sul Ross College in
1946 and hi s DVM at A&M in
1955 at which time he joined the
Agriculture Experiment Station
at the Sonora Ranch substation.
Receiving his M.S. degree from
A&M in 1961, Livingston trans
ferred to the College of Veteri
nary Medicine in 1963.
On leave of absence to com
plete his Ph.D. requirements at
the University of Nebraska, Liv
ingston specializes in sheep dis
eases.
“The mints are a good start
to what we hope will be a very
successful effort,” Weston add
ed. Weston is YMCA general
secretary and religious life co
ordinator.
A veteran police educator who
“shook doors” on a midnight
walking beat as a rookie before
working his way up to chief of
police said it’s “not even in fo
cus” when queried how soon uni
versities might staff police de
partments with “degree officers.”
“I put a lot of value on train
ing and feel there is a need for
a degree program, but a degree
is not going to make a police of
ficer,” said Ira E. Scott, chief of
A&M’s Police Training Division.
The division has been assist
ing community police depart
ments since the early 1930’s and
is the only university police ex
tension school in the state.
Scott’s reply appeared to re
pute recent statements from
other universities that officers
with degrees in police science
would soon be able to step into
key police department positions
without benefit of experience and
on-the-job training.
“Officers must first be quali
fied,” added Scott. He said they
must have high moral character,
good physical condition and “be
a’ le to use good judgment.”
“You can’t obtain all qualifi
cations in a classroom” he con
tinued. “Some of them can only
be obtained through experience.”
Chief of A&M’s Texas Engi
neering Extension Service’s po
lice division since 1967, Scott
started his own law enforcement
career in Lubbock in 1947
“pounding a beat.” He came here
in 1954, but left six years later
to serve as chief of police at
Kingsville. He held the position
until 1964 when he returned as
supervisor of the polygraph
school.
“There is a need for a college
in the state to offer a degree in
police administration and police
science,” he emphasized, noting
several junior colleges now con
fer associate degrees in police
science. Students currently can
not pursue such degree plans in
a senior college in Texas.
Scott admitted he felt state
colleges should start thinking
about a baccalaureate degree.
“We’re certainly living in an
era that the college trained po
liceman is needed,” he observed.

“Police work is becoming more
and more technical.”
He pointed out many major
police departments are slowly
starting to require that appli
cants have a minimum of two
years formal training. He ex
pects this to become a standard
requirement within the next 10
years.
“There is the other side of the
coin,” he continued. “Before we
can obtain these goals, we’re go
ing to have to have something
more to offer them than the low
salaries officers are paid today.”
While Scott sees a future need
for a degree program, he is quick
to add there is a need for a con
tinuing police training program
for the working policeman now.
“We at A&M believe that our
own program on an extension
basis—as we take it out into the
state to police departments who
can’t spare their men—serves
this need,” he said.
“There is a real big problem
that has yet to be discussed,” he
added. “It’s the small town and
its police problems.”
Scott noted small towns are
just as susceptible to crime as
larger cities.
“Since many of these smaller
departments will not be able to
hire officers with degrees, then
it is all the more important that
we continue to maintain an ex
tension police training program
which will serve their needs,” he
stressed.
Scott and his staff—all former
top-ranking law enforcement of
ficers—teach both theory and
practical application.
Scott’s division is not new to
Texas officers. The first police
conference conducted by Texas
A&M extension personnel was
held in Waco in 1933 with schools
in Wichita Falls in 1934 and El
Paso in 1935.
The Vocational Board of Edu
cation hired an itinerant instruc
tor in 1938 to conduct police
courses across the state. Trans
ferred to A&M in 1940, the pro
gram has been continued through
the Extension Service in coopera
tion with the Texas Education
Agency. The program’s enroll
ment has averaged over 1,000 of
ficers a year since 1958.
On August 29, 1968, A&M’s
police division became the first
training unit in the state to be
certified by the newly organized
State Commission on Law En
forcement Standards and Educa
tion.
Hidalgo joined A&M’s faculty
in 1966 after receiving his M.S.
and Ph.D. degree from Louisiana
State University. He earned his
DVM at A&M in 1962.
Weston has appealed to stu
dents and faculty-staff members
to join the drive for food and
clothing for families who will not
have a Christmas unless the peo
ple respond.
He emphasized all items do
nated to the drive will be “placed
in the hands of a family really
in need.”
In addition to food and cloth
ing, Weston said the opportunity
is available for a university fam
ily to “adopt” a family for
Christmas.

A $114,398 grant for contin
ued research into diet control
of the metabolism of fat has
been approved by the National
Institute of Arthritis and Metab
olic Diseases, announced Con
gressman Olin E. Teague.
The research, conducted by Dr.
Raymond Reiser, has been under
way here since 1949 and started
through an Atomic Energy
Commission grant.
Several aspects of the way
tissues produce fat are under
investigation by Reiser and his
associates. Fat is produced by
animals and plants by two
routes, formation of glycerol and
fatty acids which combine to
form the substance.
Work involves determining
how the molecules are synthe
sized, how the cell controls
amounts and texture of fat pro
duced, how it is deposited and
digestive mechanisms.
“Also involved are developing
techniques for handling the very,
very small quantities involved
and a broader investigation into
the differences of fats between
mammals and fish,” Reiser con
tinued.
Working in the project, orig
inally for seven years and ex
tended for three more, are Dr.
Nestor R. Bottino Jr. and Dr.
Carter Litchfield of the A&M
faculty, post-doctoral fellows Dr.
K. Raju and Dr. Ananda Rao of
India and Dr. Eberhard Haeff-
ner of Germany, six graduate
students working toward the
Ph.D. and several technicians.
