On hand for presentation—Neal Hall, Dr. John E. Hutchison, and Glen Covington, were /J£l on hand for the presentation of a $10,000 grant for the Texas Agricultural Extension Service for their fisheries management program. Course eyes engineers’ concern for social ails Engineers’ concern for prob lems of society manifests itself in a College of Engineering grad uate course. The course, interdisciplinary engineering, requires students to consider existing social problems and, through innovative applica tion of engineering technology, provide solutions. Dr. Charles A. Rodenberger be lieves the approach is unique in that it shows the engineer how to tackle social problems and come up with solutions. Anthony N. Gardner of Flint, Mich.; Michael M. Tower, McKen zie Bridge, Ore., and Duane T. Wray, Indianola, Neb., tackled a pair of problems in the recently- completed course and offered in teresting answers in a 71-page proposal to Rodenberger, aero space engineering professor who instructs the course. Recognizing the need for in dustrial growth to enable rising per capita income, the two mas ter’s degree and Ph.D. candidates suggested a systems engineering center as part of the Texas Engi neering Extension Service. It would “develop university- industry ties and function as a link between technological re sources of the university and re quirements of industry and gov ernment,” they proposed.

Regular $1.25 99c Tower, Gardner and Wray en visioned the center as a contact point for companies and agencies requiring varied engineering spe cialties, actively seeking custom ers and research support for new and creative technological devel opments and surveying uninhab ited markets and identifying po tential needs to which the new technology could be profitably applied. The organization they call the SEARCH Center (Systems Engi neering and Applied Research through Creative Hypotheses) would cross current professional engineering specialties using the total systems approach to design. To show how the center would operate, a preliminary study and design of an improved drop foot brace was conducted as in a typical SEARCH Center mode of operation. “This idea was supplied by Wray,” Rodenberger noted. “His mother has been crippled by polio for the last 20 years. Recalling her struggles with the heavy, un sightly steel bar brace convinced him this was an area in which the center could apply engineer ing knowhow to optimum ad vantage.” “By being engineered for a natural walk, the elastic brace will greatly improve movement and appearance of the drop foot patient,” the graduate students state.

The fisheries management pro gram is being set up through a $10,000 grant to the Texas Agri cultural Extension Service from Lone Star Gas Company of Dal las and its subsidiary, NIPAC, Inc. On hand for the grant presen tation to Extension Director Dr. Campus police complete course Six Texas A&M campus police men graduate Friday from the general law enforcement course at the A&M Police Training School. Chief Instructor Ira E. Scott, head of the Texas Engineering Extension Service’s Police Train ing Division, noted the men have completed course requirements for certification under a new state law. John E. Hutchison were Neal Hall, vice president of Lone Star’s general division; Glen Cov ington, vice president, NIPAC, Inc.; Jim Dunton, NIPAC direc tor of marketing; and Wallace Klussmann, A&M’s Extension Service wildlife specialist. The basic objective of the study is to improve fisheries management and production in Texas farm ponds. Klussmann said previous re search indicates that anhydrous ammonia can control undesirable types of fish in ponds and small lakes. It also can be used as a pond fertilizer and to kill or limit growth of noxious vegetation. He said there is a big need for a safe material to do this. Pesti cides are now being used, but the chemicals are expensive and can sometimes cause pollution trou bles. ARM A HOME SAVINGS ASSOCIATION Hmbc Of flee: Nevada, Mow 3S23 TMMa Awe.

THE CHURCH FOR ALU ALL FOR THE CHURCH The Church is the greatest factor "ng < ter and good citizenship. It is a store- on earth for the buit house of spiritual values. Without a strong Church, neither democracy nor civilization can survive. There are four sound reasons why every person should attend services regu larly and support the Church. They are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For his children’s sake. (3) For the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the sake of the Church itself, which needs his moral and material support. Plan to go to church regu larly and read your Bible daily. When each new experience springs forth like a jack-in-the-box . . . and your fondest possessions are toys . . . and your chief concern is to squeeze out of every hour the last ounce of amusement — then it’-s fun to be surprised. Sunday Monday Psalms Proverbs 64:1-10 3:21-27 Friday Ephesians 3:7-13 Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Isaiah Matthew Mark 33:13-22 7:7-14 13:28-38 Saturday I Thessalonians But when you’ve grown too old for toys . . . when life is laced with serious challenge . . . when happiness depends on a thousand social, economic and moral decisions — then surprises can be devas tating! It is elementary that our early education must prepare us for the later surprises. The knowledge, habits and skills we acquire must be adequate for meeting the unexpected as readily as the expected. And because religious faith and moral fortitude are men’s chief resources in the unheralded crises of adult life, we must nurture their development in every child. Support, encourage, serve your church in its vital efforts to mold the character of today’s youth — tomorroio’s adults. 5:1-1 1 1 <532? t t t <322? t <532? t
