Oceanographers visit Tokyo
Four local professors and a
ormer graduate student will be
iey participants at the Intema-
ional Oceanography Congr-ess
Sept. 14-23 in Tokyo.
Dr. Richard A. Geyer, head of
he university’s Oceanography
Jepartment, said members of the
delegation will present nine
i&pers, convene two symposiums
and serve as chairmen for two
sections.
Participating in the Tokyo
conference will be Drs. Luis R.
Capurro, John D. Cochrane,
Sayed Z. El-Sayed, Takashi
Ichiye and David Paskausky. Dr.
Paskausky received his Ph.D.
from Texas A&M last year and
is now a professor at the Uni
versity of Connecticut.
Dr. Ichiye will present five
papers at several different sec
tions.
Capt. Capurro will convene the
symposium on remote sensing of
oceanic variables and chair the
session on bottom water origins
and motions.
Similar honors have been be
stowed on Dr. El-Sayed. He will
convene the symposium dealing
with aspects of Antarctic ice and
water masses and serve as chair
man for a session on the physi
ology of organisms at low tem
peratures.
AUSTIN (A*)—Anti-war rallies,
protests over tree destruction
and occupation of a school snack
bar made 1969-70 one of the
most tumultous years in Univer
sity of Texas history.
A rally protesting American
intervention in Cambodia got out
of control and ended when city
police used tear gas to disperse
demonstrators from the Capitol.
Police arrested a group of pro
testers last fall who had climbed
ancient cypress and oak trees
along Waller Creek, which flows
through the campus, in an un
successful attempt to keep them
from being cut for a football sta
dium enlargement.
Frank Erwin Jr., the blunt re
gents chairman, took personal
charge of the Waller Creek tree
cutting, arousing criticism from
militants and nonmilitants alike.
City and state police were
called in a few weeks later after
dissidents occupied the Chuck
Wagon snack bar in the student
union building. They were pro
testing a rule limiting the facili
ty to students, teachers and
guests. The rule was issued after
an incident involving non-student
“street people” who hung out in
the Chuck Wagon.
All this, however, was mild
when compared with disruptions
at several campuses in the East
and Far West. No buildings were
burned. No one was hurt seri
ously.

to becoming Rice University
president, discussed campus tur
moil in a recent interview. Here
are excerpts:
Q The University had its share
of disruptions the past year.
Still, UT was calm when com
pared with many colleges in the
North, East and Far West. Why
do you think this was? Was the
administration doing something
right or is the student body more
conservative or orthodox?
A) ... Some percentage of
luck—just no question about it.
Any place of this size, with so
many people, with different
types of opinions, different ways
in which they would go about
reaching their objectives, has to
have a modicum of good fortune
in order not to have a major dis
ruption ... To a very large ex
tent it’s not because the students
are conservative but because of
a fairly large number who be
come concerned with the proba
ble outcome of any mass meeting
that would have had as its objec
tive a violent demonstration. And
by virtue of their persuasiveness
with their colleagues, particular
ly those who are a little more
raucously inclined, I think we
can see a large part of the re
duction in the tension. Also,
there was a fair amount of effec
tive faculty activity . . .
Q) If I understand you cor
rectly, you do not think Texas
students tend to be any more
responsive to authority or con
servative than those from other
schools over the nation.
A) . . . They come from a more
conservative setting, and they’re
perhaps considering these prob
lems in a slightly more conserva
tive vein, but their sensitivity to
the problems and their concern
about the state of the world and
the country is no less than any
place else.
Q) Do you think the end of
the Vietnam War will cool things
off?
A) Oh, I think it will inevi
tably, but I don’t believe it is
going to delete all the problems
. . . It’s going to make a differ
ence, obviously. For one thing,
it’s going to have to change the
focus of that portion of the
group which is challenging us
continuously, who have used that
Earth
Lumpy
The earth is in a lot worse
shape than most of us thought.
The poor old planet is a lot
more lumpy and irregular than
scientists thought just four years
ago.
In fact, a recent study described
the earth’s surface as in such bad
shape that its highs and lows
roughly form a couple of dumb
bells running north and south.
The study was done by the
Smithsonian Astrophysical Ob
servatory (SAO) made possible
by a grant from the National
Aeronautics and Space Adminis
tration.
One way SAO reached its con
clusions about the earth’s rumpled
surface was by using a bank of
computers to analyze more than
100,000 photographs from satel
lites as they rose and fell—ever
so slightly—in orbital flight.
These variations in orbital
flight are caused by the differ
ences in the earth’s gravity at
various points on its surface—
generally, the stronger pull of
gravity over high spots on earth,
such as mountains, and a lesser
pull over the low areas.
SAO scientists examined differ
ences from the recognized moun
tains and lowlands and other
topographic features. All of the
earth’s high and low features are
impossible to detect from the
ground.
The high belt tops the North
Pole, with two wide ends reach
ing over Europe and West Africa
on one side and the Pacific Ocean
on the other.
The low belt stretches over the
South Pole with its broad ends
over Asia and North America.
as a mainstay of their argument.
They’ll have to find some oth
er mainstay . . .
Q) How many militants do
you think there are at this cam
pus who are ready to use violence
or to provoke others to violence
to lend emphasis to their pro
tests ?
A) ... I don’t know how to
put a number on it, but I think
that there are certainly several
dozen — several meaning three
or four — who are willing to try
to stir up violence. And of that
several dozen, I wouldn’t be sur
prised if some fraction of them,
half or a quarter, are very well
versed in the tactics of stirring
it up and melting away. You al-
Vernon given
safety award
Dr. Ralph J. Vernon, associate
professor of engineering tech
nology, is among the first 100
persons in the nation designated
a “certified safety professional.”
The designation is awarded by
the Board of Certified Safety
Professionals as part of a new
program assessing the profession
al qualifications of safety direc
tors, accident prevention special
ists and safety engineers.
“This is another step toward
the recognition and certification
of individuals with outstanding
qualifications and accomplish
ments in the accident prevention
area,” noted Dr. Everett R. Glaze-
ner, head of the Engineering
Technology Department.
He pointed out Dr. Vernon is
coordinator for the department’s
new undergraduate and graduate
degree programs in industrial
safety and industrial hygiene.
Dr. Vernon joined the faculty
in 1951 but accepted a safety
engineer position with an insur
ance company in Dallas two years
later. He returned briefly in 1966
before beginning study for a
Ph.D. at the University of Iowa.
He rejoined the faculty in 1968.
Vernon received his undergrad
uate degree at Clemson Universi
ty and master’s here.
Laundry schedule for
fall released
The laundry schedule for the
fall 1970 semester has been an
nounced by George Hartsock,
laundry manager.
Students whose last names be
gin with A-C must turn in their
bundles Thursday before 9 a.m.
and may pick them up Friday
after 3 p.m.; D-H will turn
bundles in Friday and pick them
up the following Monday; I-M
will turn laundry in Monday and
pick it up Tuesday; Mc-R will turn
bundles in Tuesday and pick them
up Wednesday; S-Z will turn
laundry in Wednesday and pick
it up Thursday.
Hartsock reminded students
only one bundle will be accepted
each week and that a 50-cent
charge will be made on bundles
turned in out of place. Laundry
turned in late should be de
posited at the assigned station
to be picked up later.
A ticket stub must be pre
sented to pick up finished laun
dry. Without it the student’s
identification card must be pre
sented and a 15-cent penalty paid.
In case of complaints, the laun
dry tickets from the bundle must
be brought to the main laundry
office within three days. The
office is open Monday through
Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00
p.m.
Students living in dorms 1
through 12 must have a pink laun
dry ticket and use laundry sta
tion 2 in the Dorm Services
Building. Hart, Law, Puryear,
Mitchell, Leggett and Milner will
use Leggett Hall station 3 and
have yellow tickets. Dorms 13
through 22, Henderson and Wal
ton will use hospital station 4 and
have gold tickets.
All other students and those
living off campus will use hospital
station 4 and have white tickets.

ways find that of those arrested,
you usually don’t find the group
who stirred them up in the first
place.
Q) ... Do you think the Uni
versity’s problems with campus
dissidents have been made worse
by Mr. Erwin’s approach to
problems ?
A) I suspect if that was an
irritant to them, and it had not
appeared, some other irritant
would have taken its place . . .
What I’m saying to you is, when
the uproar gets started, those
who cause the uproar do every
thing they can to keep it operat
ing. So if it hadn’t been him, it
might have been something else.
Intramural meetings
Wednesday afternoon
Meetings to discuss the organi
zation of intramural sports for
both civilians and corps during
the fall semester will be held
Wednesday afternoon, according
to Ray Fletcher, director of Intra
mural Athletics.
The corps meeting will be held
at 5 p.m. and the civilians will
meet at 5:30 p.m. in room 232 of
the G. Rollie White Coliseum,
Fletcher said.
Directors for Intramural sports
for all civilian dorms and corps
units are urged to attend the
meetings, he said.
Upperclassmen will start the
fall intramural program with
football, handball and bowling
while freshmen will have basket
ball, horseshoes and table tennis
first this fall.
When these sports have been
finished, the upperclassman will
then have the latter three sports
and the freshmen the former three
later in the semester.
Ushers needed
for home games
Persons desiring to work as
ushers in Kyle Field for the 1970
Texas A&M football season will
meet Thursday.
Bill Gard, in charge of ushers,
said the group will be organized
and work forms will be completed.
He said the 5 p.m. meeting will
be in Room 232 of G. R. White
Coliseum.
