Gulf Oil Corp. presents
eight fall scholarships
Eight students will receive
scholarships this fall from the
Gulf Oil Corporation.
A freshman, sophomore, junior
and senior in the Petroleum En
gineering and Chemical Engineer
ing Departments will be selected
by the Faculty Scholarship Com
mittee to receive the Gulf Hon
ors Scholarships, announced En
gineering Dean Fred J. Benson.
With four Gulf scholarships in
force, four additional awards were
announced here Friday by E. L.
A research project of the Texas
Engineering Experiment Station
involving design and construction
of a low temperature system aim
ed at suppression of noise in ra
dio frequency communication and
information retrieval systems
used in the space effort has re
ceived second-year funding from
NASA in the amount of $29,000,
reveals Dr. C. R. Haden, associate
professor of electrical engineer
ing and principal investigator.
The system, including a low
temperature refrigerator, has
been developed and assembled at
the Manned Spacecraft, Haden
said. The group will now partici
pate in further tests and experi
mentation with the equipment. A

Butcher, secretary to Gulf’s Aid
to Education Committee.
When the program was set up
last year, Gulf had planned to in
troduce two honors scholarships
a year to freshmen so that by
1972 and in subsequent years,
eight students would benefit.
“Since it now appears there is
a very serious need for scholar
ship support on campuses, Gulf
decided to speed up the procedure
by making all eight scholarships
available immediately,” Butcher
theoretical model is also being
designed.
“Basically, the device would im
prove the noise characteristics of
the communication link with the
spacecraft,” he explained. “It in
volves a conversion of an electro
magnetic information signal to a
light signal which is processed in
a semi-conductor filled cavity.”
The engineering design con
tract is a continuing phase of
the university’s development of a
physical electronic laboratory in
the Electrical Engineering De
partment.
Haden’s research in cryongen-
ics—low temperature work—per
mits the temperature to be low
ered to 450-degrees below zero
on the Fahrenheit scale.
Haden is assisted by Dr. C. W.
Alworth, assistant professor of
electrical engineering. Doctoral
candidate John Barrett will also
participate in the research this
year.
Prior to joining the staff in
September, 1968, Haden served
three years with the University
of Oklahoma where he conducted
low temperature research in co
operation with the Atomic Ener
gy Commission and the National
Science Foundation.
He received his Ph.D. from the
University of Texas at Austin in
1965.
Alworth has been with the uni
versity since 1968. His Ph.D. was
awarded by the University of
Oklahoma in 1969.
said.
Grants will be to seniors for
one year. Others may be renewed
until the student completes the
normal four years of undergrad
uate study or receives the bach
elor degree. Awards cover tuition,
books and fees to a maximum of
$1,500 a year.
The Texas A&M students will
be among 98 receiving Gulf grants
in 26 departments of 23 colleges
and universities in the U. S. Gulf
has invested more than $3 million
in higher education this year.
Other facets of the program in
clude capital grants, departmental
assistance grants, unrestricted
awards to colleges and universi
ties and graduate student fellow
ships.
Gulf aid to Texas A&M over
the last decade has amounted to
about $127,000.
Gulf Oil Foundation established
a $125,000 mechanical engineering
professorship last May in honor
of Gulf’s late senior vice presi
dent, Thomas A. Dietz, a 1931
graduate.
Virgil S. Hanson, Gulf’s nation
al director of employment and
college relations of Houston, ac
companied Butcher to the campus
for the presentation.

The university has 314 cadets
among more than 2,400 from the
five-state Fourth U. S. Army area
in the 1970 advanced summer
camp at Camp Eagle on the Okla
homa military reservation.
They gained experience in
leadership and military opera
tions before being commissioned
as Army officers. During the six-
week training period, cadets were
taught individual and unit tac
tics, small-unit leadership and va
rious other skills required of
Army officers.
