Duncan Installs Cafeteria Line
THE BATTALION

The chuck wagon is rolling at
Texas A&M.
Installation of the first cafe
teria line in Duncan Hall involves
the Food Service Department’s
wheeled units that have speeded
operations at Sbisa Hall the last
three years.
Duncan is open during the sum
mer to all students, faculty, staff
and guests.
The portable line, consisting of
24 cart-like units coupled in rail
road car fashion, is mounted on
wheels. It was specially designed
that way so the main dining room
at Sbisa can be cleared quickly
for registration, dances, banquets
and other functions.
Power and water connections
are made unit-to-unit, requiring
a minimum of outlets.
“We could hook several of the
carts together and follow stu
dents to feed them,” mused Food
Service Director Fred Dollar, who
is constantly looking for ways to
improve the university’s dining
facilities.
Duncan is the newer of two
3,000 or more seat A&M dining
halls and during the regular-
school year caters to the appetites
of Cadet Corps members residing
in 12 halls on the eastern corner
of the campus.
Maintenance in west-side resi
dence halls necessitated locating
summer students in five of the
air-conditioned corps dorms, ac
cording to Housing Manager Al
lan Madeley. He said about 750
students reside in Leonard, Har
rell, Whiteley, White and Utay
Halls.
Dollar and Henry Wellnitz,
Duncan manager, have spread
their best for an average 400
diners per meal.
In addition to the double 50-
foot cafeteria line, which has
metal skirts to hide the wheels,
they’ve put up inexpensive decor
ations, channel customers with a
white picket fence and are looking
for other ways to enhance the
atmosphere of Duncan’s west
wing.
Part of the decor of the 1,400-
seat hall are the two new eight-
foot-high Aggie senior rings used
in the annual ring dance.
“How can we turn these poles
(interior supports) into palm
trees inexpensively?” Dollar in
quired.
“We’ve got one wagon coming
in from Smetana,” Dollar return
ed to the decor theme. “I wonder
where we could find another
couple of buggies or wagons.”

EMPLOYMENT SERVICE — COLLEGE DIVISION
331 UNIVERSITY DRIVE AT NORTH GATE
846-3737 — Jos. B. Collerain ’37, Owner
directed by A&M veteran swim
ming coach Arthur D. Adamson.
He has worked with the pro
gram since 1936 and estimates
more than 25,000 children have
received instruction.
Adamson i|S completing his last
year as swimming coach, but will
teach classes through next year
waiting for retirement. He plans
to continue with the recreation
council.
Adamson feels when the young
sters finish their full cycle, “they
have a complete aquatic educa
tion.” The program also high
lights junior and senior life sav
ing methods.
Competitive events—on a volun
tary basis—is the icing on the
cake, he added.
Adamson, trim and fit, feels
“most people don’t know how
poorly they swim and often take
foolish chances.”
He called attention to the fact
that “every summer we have a
lot of people drowned, a great
many in boating accidents.”
Noting people often “take off
without adequate life preservers,”
he said it usually is the fellow
who triejs to swim to shore for
help who does not make it.
“They just don’t know their
capabilities in the water,” he con
tended.
“I think the number of lakes
we’re now getting demands people
learn to swim,” Adamson said.
“Being a real professional swim
mer is one of the most important
things a man can learn.”
Returning to the subject of his
claS|S of children, he cautioned
parents to be safe with their
children.
“My blood runs cold when
people don’t supervise their kids,
or don’t watch them closely
enough,” he continued. “Kids who
can’t swim can get into trouble
real fast.”
Sitting on “the deck gossiping,
or reading a magazine when a
child is a non-swimmer, or inade
quate swimmer, is a good way for
him to drown,” he concluded.
The joint program, operating
at full capacity, i/3 conducted in
two one-month programs during
June and July.

DUNCAN CAFETERIA
Cafeteria-style service inaugurated this summer in Texas A&M’s Duncan Dining Hall is
the first in its 30-year history. Memorial Student Center secretary Shy Hicks takes her
coffee break in the west-wing facility. The Corps of Cadets dines there during the reg
ular school year, emi’oying semi-cafeteria family-style service. The cafeteria is open dur
ing the summer to all students, faculty, staff and guests.
Microfilm Speaker Says
‘Info Center Helps Reader’
Francois Kertesz, coordinator
of Information Centers at Oak
Ridge National Laboratory, told
50 representatives of Texas in
dustries and governments that an
information center is “relieving
the reader from the arduous task

bodily harm induced by radiation
is similar to cancer and leukemia,
it is difficult to attribute to
radiation.”
Neff noted 20 states including
Texas have agreements with the
commission, relegating licensing
and control in most instances to
the state. Excluded are reactors
and accelerators.
“Also, the Public Health Serv
ice of the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare was re
cently authorized through legis
lation for radiation-producers
such as color TV, X-ray machines,
lasers and microwave equipment,”
Neff pointed out.
A university such as A&M,
with a large number of users,
may provide primary controls
through a centralized radiological
safety office as part of its ad
ministration.
A university with only a few
users will probably employ de
centralized organization and di
rect control by state or federal
agencies.
Neff noted reactors, such as
A&M’s Nuclear Science Center
one megawatt TRIGA facility, is
regulated directly by the AEC.
The 88-inch cyclotron is a spe
cial case. When material under
study is in the accelerator beam
line, it is controlled by AEC
through Oak Ridge,” he said.
“When it’s taken to a lab for
analysis the target material goes
under state control.”
A&M’s radiological safety of
fice, employing five health physi
cists and two technicians under
Neff’s supervision, has safety re
sponsibility for the bulk of the
university’s research labs em
ploying radiation, such as Acti
vation Analysis.
Dean Benson cited the A&M
student newspaper, The Battal
ion, for its efforts in student
traffic safety.
A critique of the conference
was held Wednesday afternoon.
The annual conference, hosted
each year by a different member
college, presents recent safety in
formation to safety experts from
the 700-member organization.
of mining the sand of literature
for the few grains of gold.”
Kertesz was the banquet speak
er at the first state-wide micro
film conference, hosted by Tex
as A&M’s Department of Indus
trial Engineering.
Kertesz stated an information
center must set its goal “to pre
serve the new increment of knowl
edge of a technical article, mak
ing it available to the technical
community in a useful, convenient
form.”
He noted the usefulness of in
formation centers has been gen
erally accepted. There ai’e about
120 federally supported informa
tion centers in the United States
and several hundred in the pri
vately-owned centers are counted.
Assistant Prof. Dr. Roger W-
Elliott said the conference accent
is on education—informing those
attending of the innovations in
microfilm technology.
“Urgent demands for more
effective information systems
have multiplied in the past 10
years as a result of the needs of
both the technical and manage
ment personnel in modern corpo
rations,” Dr. Elliott explained.
The two-day conference deals
with four separate but related
topics. It started Thursday at
the Holiday Inn in Bryan.
Rowena Swanson of the Air
Force Office of Scientific Re
search, Washington, D. C., opened
the conference. She spoke to the
group about background infor
mation relative to information
center design.
Su^an Lauffer of the Illinois
State Republican Central Commit
tee showed how micrographics in
reference facilities can be used.
The Illinois GOP organized its
information center for research
material used phimarily during
local, regional and state-wide
campaigns, she reported.
“It will provide data for issue
papers, speeches, biographical
studie,s and campaign startegies,”
she said during her presentation
Thursday afternoon.
No attempt is made to use in
ternational or nation-wide clip
pings in the Illinois system; how
ever, the incoming daily volume
is about 200 clips a day from 340
daily and weekly newspapers,
magazine articles, congressional
record clips and government re
ports.
Henry Minton of the 3M Com
pany presented a discussion of
some of the thorny legal problems
inherent in microfilm utilization.
The legal presentation was also
a part of Thursday’s program.
Two speakers will address the
conference Friday.
William Parks of General Dy
namics, Fort Worth, will speak on
“The Computer — Micrographics
Interface,” and C. J. Brookner of.
Collins Radio, Dallas, will illus
trate “Microfilm in Management
and Marketing.”
A&M is hosting the program
in cooperation with The State
Technical Services Institute and
The Sea Grant Program.
Several related firms have dis
plays at the conference site.
