A&M has attracted wide sup
port of Czech organizations for
scholarships in the language,
which was designated a critical
tongue by the U. S. Office of
Education. The department head
said seven organizations have
organized scholarship support.
Czech is the third most com
mon language used in Texas, fol
lowing Spanish. The state’s pop
ulation includes a half million
Czechs, most of whom have re
tained their native language.
The Modern Languages De
partment instructs more students
in Czech than any other institu
tion in the U. S. and has made
outstanding efforts to preserve
the state’s Czech linguistic and
cultural heritage.
The modern game of tennis was
developed in England in 1874.

The Mid America Governors’
Transportation Council has
moved its executive offices from
Oklahoma City to College Sta
tion, announced Gen. John P.
Doyle, council chairman.
Gen. Doyle, who holds the Mac
Donald Chair of Transportation
at Texas, said the move was
prompted by the appointment of
Hoy A. Richards as the council’s
acting director.
Richards, research economist at
Texas Transportation Institute,
succeeds John Bennett who re
turned to his former position
with the Oklahoma Industrial De
velopment Department.
The five-year-old organization
represents Arkansas, Colorado,
Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Ne
braska, North Dakota, Oklahoma,
South Dakota and Texas.
General Doyle said the council
was formed to improve the work
ings of transportation in the eco
nomic development of the 11-
state region.
Special attention, he noted, is
given to transportation rate re
lationships between mid Ameri
ca and other parts of the coun
try. Other areas of concern
elude a shortage of rail andt
transportation in some sec
of the region.
General Doyle is a eta
member of the council. Hen
named the Texas represents
by former Gov. John Connal
and reappointed last year by
Preston Smith. Richards is Tn
as’ atlernate representative.
