Sociologist addresses staff
Positive attitude can achieve desired results
A prominent Texas sociologist
said here Thursday that a posi
tive attitude about shaping our
social environment in the 1970’s
can help achieve desired results.
Dr. Bernice M. Moore, assist
ant to the director for communi
ty programs and professional
education with the Texas Hogg
Foundation for Mental Health,
Austin, told about 952 staff
members of the Agricultural Ex
tension Service on campus that
“we cannot afford to have a
negative outlook on so important
an issue.”

‘SCALP HUNTERS”
With Burt Lancaster
the 1970’s,” pointed out three
major aspirations or goals that
should be carried forward by
educators on today’s social scene.
“Every young person should
have an opportunity to fulfill his
potential and acquire competen
cies needed, and every individual
should have the right to live with
some measure of dignity. The
third goal is elimination of ig
norance, disease, want, intoler
ance and hate.”
As educators work with peo
ple, these aspirations are the
basis of hope for achieving suc
cess, Dr. Moore said. “Yet we
are living in a period of great
complexity and we must hurry to
learn new ways of approaching
and solving present social prob
lems. Our skills and technology
in working with people are not
as advanced as our technology in
working with agriculture,” she
emphasized.
On the human scene today, Dr.
Moore continued, many people
are afraid of social change cop-
out in various ways.
“Some get so wrapped up in
their own job or immediate set
ting that they have no time to
try for solutions to social prob
lems. Others immerse themselves
so deeply in a specialized profes
sion that they pretend there is
no bigger scene. Still others cop-
out by declaring that society is
so bad already that nothing can
save it. A fourth group says
that our government or schools
have fallen under the wrong
leadership. Let’s get involved
and be creative as we seek posi
tive methods for change,” Dr.
Moore challenged.
Knapp-Porter awards were made
to two of the state’s outstanding
agricultural leaders, Roy B.
Davis, general manager for the
Plains Cooperative Oil Mill, Lub
bock; and David G. Gault, gen
eral manager of the Mid - Tex
Milk Producers Association, Aus
tin. Dr. John E. Hutchison, di
rector, Texas Agricultural Ex
tension Service, made the pres
entations.
Featured speaker at Exten
sion’s annual dinner meeting
Thursday night was Jack Link-
letter, television personality.
Another speaker, Dr. Maple
Avery, a physician at Conroe,
discussed the meaning of Ameri
canism and its role in shap
ing our social environment.
“Throughout history, down-pay
ments have been made on our
heritage of today. The concepts
of human rights and human dig
nity are part of our important
heritage,” he told the group.
Presentation
the 1970
The Extension State Confer
ence moved into its final day Fri
day, with seven persons receiv
ing coveted Texas Superior Serv
ice Awards and two special
awards presented by the South
west Animal Health Research
Foundation. Speakers Friday in
cluded Edwin L. Kirby of the
Extension Service, Washington,
D.C., and Texas Extension Direc

Speaker predicts America
going European in 1970’s
The “Europeanization of the
American scene” in the 1970’s
was prophesized Wednesday
morning by a prominent U. S.
economist.
He was Richard B. Johnson of
Dallas, chairman of the Eco
nomics Department and director
of the Southwestern Graduate
School of Banking at Southern
Methodist University.
Johnson spoke to the 952 pro
fessional employees of the Texas
Agricultural Extension Service
who are on the campus this week
for their biennial statewide con
ference.
Two other speakers were heard
in the Wednesday session, which
was devoted to “Shaping Our
Economic Environment in the
1970’s” — the Rev. Thomas Fry
Jr. of the First Presbyterian
Church in Dallas, and Dr. H. O.
Kunkel, dean of the College of
Agriculture.
In a “prescription” for the
1970’s, Johnson urged, 1. rein
forcement of traditional values
such as saving and hard work.
2. improvement of education for
the labor force, 3. econominiza-
tion, and 4. realism in U. S. com
mitments to the rest of the
world.
Johnson described Europeani
zation of the American scene as
meaning that because we have
become a settled community, we
can expect the further develop
ment of organized dissent, the
proliferation of political parties,
and the integration of intellec
tual positions.
Dr. Kunkel told his audience
that “It is not my point here to
Owning cow herd
dream, nightmare
Having a cow herd is the dream
of many and sometimes the night
mare of those who have one, the
250 cattlemen attending the 20th
Annual Beef Cattle Short Course
here were told Monday morning.
“With a herd of ‘computer
cows’ and no capital, one can try
his luck as a breeder of cattle,”
Dr. Richard L. Willham, Iowa
State University animal scientist,
said, explaining the “computer
cow game.”
“You can try that selection
program you either dreamed up
or heard about,” he said. “You
can see the results of a lifetime
of breeding cattle in a few short
weeks, besides having at the end
a knowledge of the actual breed
ing value of each animal you
either selected or culled. And this
is impossible in the real world.”
Because any constructive selec
tion program involving beef cattle
requires time, it is critical for
breeders not to waste time or
resources on unsuccessful pro
grams, Dr. Willham said. It would
be useful for the beef breeder to
try out several alternative selec
tion programs before making this
near lifetime choice, he added,
noting that this can now be done
by means of the genetic simula
tion program developed for beef
cattle at Iowa State University
and known as the “Computer Cow
Game.”

argue for or against the view of
the environmentalist who would
ban a chemical, be it DDT, 2,4,5-
T, 2,4-D, PCB or other.
“The truth is that there is in
adequate scientific basis for ei
ther side. Groups calling for
more stringent environmental
controls of chemicals are genuine
in their alarms. And their con
cern should be a concern of ours.
“The problem is that we are
faced with a dilemma of major
proportions: Scientific data and
conclusions are inadequate in the
main for sound judgement to be
made now. The scientific issues
are complex and conti-oversial.
But under the glare of public
spotlight they are being debated
by layman and scientist alike.”
“The greater majority of peo
ple in the United States would
ban DDT. Yet it was DDT that
ushered in the agricultural revo
lution that provides the quality
of food we have today.

Insurance Policy Made To Appear As Investment
Bi
.... Beware of those salesmen who come to you
with a letter of recommendation from one of
your friends and try to get you “in on the ground
floor” of his fabulous company. It is bad enough
that he has probably already take your friend for
a commitment of a lot of money he could invest
to much greater advantage elsewhere.
company grows and makes better profits, but it
will, in nearly every case, take years to ever
recover the original investments.
What the salesman is attempting to do is to
get you to make what he represents as a highly
profitable investment which turns out to be an
extremely expensive and highly concealed series
of premium payments on a very limited insurance
policy.
By its very nature the special policy is dif
ficult to understand, lends itself to misrepresenta
tion, and defies comparison with other insurance
policies which the laymen may understand. More
often than not they are sold in high promotional
manner, represented as a one-time-only-opportu
nity for a person to get in on the ground floor.
Most of the “deals” include a profit sharing
dividend feature with the implication that these
dividends will continually increase in size as the
Highly polished, canned sales presentations
with exaggerated emphasis on the themes of
profit, investment, dividends and the like often
leave buyers unaware that they have merely
bought an insurance policy.
