call 846-5701 for further information
and machines from the war, in
cluding completion of the trans
fer of a big combat base to the
South Vietnamese army.
It was the 57th American in
stallation to be turned over to
the Vietnamese since the U. S.
withdraw started just over a year
ago.
The other disengagement moves
announced by the U.S. Command
were the further reduction in
U.S. troop strength by 2,565 men
and the transfer of 40 jet attack
bombers to the South Vietnamese
air force, next Thursday.
In war action, a South Vietna
mese armored column engaged
North Vietnamese troops along
the Cambodian border and report
ed killing 21 while listing their
own losses as six dead and 14
wounded.
The U. S. Command also sig
naled a forthcoming disengage
ment move. It announced that
three units of the 1st Marine Di
vision and an Army artillery bat
talion have been pulled out of
action and are preparing to de
part.
The combat base that was
turned over to the South Vietna
mese is at An Hoa, 20 miles
southwest of Da Nang. It was
set up four years ago by U.S.
Marines and was once one of the
largest bases for the Leather
necks in the northern sector.
The newly announced troops
reduction lowered the current
American strength to about 391,-
000 men and this figure will be
cut by another 7,000 during the
coming weeks.

CAIRO UP)—Egyptians poured
out their grief for Carnal Abdel
Nasser on Tuesday as world cap
itals wondered what his passing
may portend for peace in the
Middle East.
Many feared that the Egyp
tian president’s death may mean
a new setback for the already
stalled peace talks between Israel
and its Arab neighbors.
President Nixon, however, said
it was too early to know how
Nasser’s death may affect the
troubled Mideast. He told news

Dean of Science J. M. Pres

The one-week university drive
opens Monday, corresponding
with the start of United cam

Four retired faculty

Professor emeritus designation
was approved Tuesday for four
A&M faculty members who re
tired this summer after service
totaling 82 years.
Named professor emeritus
were Spencer J. Buchanan, W. E.
Eckles, Dr. E. J. Dyksterhuis and
Joe A. Orr.
“Dean Prescott has demon
strated that he can provide the
leadership, organization and en
thusiasm to make this campaign
a success,” Luedecke said.
“There’s no question that this
is a worthy cause which deserves
all of our support,” he added.
Buchanan joined the civil en
gineering faculty in 1946 and
was head of the Soil Mechanics
Division from 1950 to 1968.
Orr, also a civil engineering
“We are hoping for large-scale
participation from members of
the university community,” Pres
cott said. “As citizens of the
Bryan-College Station area, it is
important that we support the
objectives of this fund-raising
effort which contributes so gen
erously to numerous community
agencies which benefit all of us.”

“It will contribute a new situ
ation, but whether it contributes
to more tension remains to be
seen. I think it is much too
early to say because we do not
know whom his successor will be
or whether it might be some kind
of collective leadership.”
Some diplomats at the United
Nations said Nasser’s death
might spell the end of the U. S.
initiative that laid the ground
work for the talks with a 90-day
cease-fire between Israel on one
side and Egypt and Jordan on
the other. Gunnar V. Jarring,
the U. N. peace mediator, dis
agreed, saying it was too early
to tell, a U. N. spokesman re
ported.
Acting President Anwar Sa

world leaders, some of whom be
gan arriving for the state fu
neral Thursday.
There was little speculation
among Egyptions in their hour
of mourning as to a successor to
Nasser, but they learned that
some of his closest advisers had
been at his bedside, among them
Sadat. He was a fellow officer
in the 1962 coup against the
monarchy and was chosen by

He is acting president until a

With Sadat as chairman, the
executive committee of Egypt’s
only political party, the Arab So
cialist Union, and the Cabinet
met in emergency session. It was
presumed they discussed the date
for a party vote on Nasser’s suc

One of Nasser’s last official

A record $118,119 budget for
1970-71 operation of the Tele
phone Technicians Training Cen
ter at A&M has been approved
by the Texas Telephone Associa
tion.
TTA Training Committee
Chairman F. G. Withers of Hous
ton, president of the Texas Tele
phone and Telegraph Co., said
the new budget is up $37,279 for
the nation’s oldest and largest
telephone technician program.
Operated by the Engineering
Extension service at A&M, the
school started in 1965 with a
$16,696 budget.
Withers explained more than
$89,300 of the budget is expect
ed to be funded by telephone
companies paying tuition of men
sent to the center.
Plowever, the entire program
is underwritten financially by
the Texas Telephone Association.
H. D. Bearden, director of
A&M’s Engineering Extension
Service, and Ed Kerlick, chief
instructor at the center, said the
budget anticipates telephone
technicians will receive some
44,658 man-hours of training or
1,116 man-weeks from Sept. 1
through Aug. 31, 1971.
Bearden added that during the
past five years the budget esti
mates have been exceeded by de
mands for the highly-specialized
training offered in a wide variety
of courses.
Kerlick said special classes last
fiscal year resulted in 45,120
man-hours of training, far ahead
of expected.
During the first year of opera
tion telephone companies, equip
ment manufacturers and sup
pliers sent in small shipments of
essential supplies on a voluntary
basis to start the first classes.
Today the center facilities are
valued at nearly $900,000.
Purchases have been made of
sophisticated modern equipment,
some of it custom-built for the
facility. There have also been
contributions by many of the na
tion’s top manufacturers and sup
pliers.
The largest single contribution
is $250,000 worth of equipment
by Bell Telephone Laboratories
two years ago.
