International office begins
to finish Argentina project
THE BATTALION
Thursday, November 5, 1970 College Station, Texas Page-3
Campus Briefs
A&M’s Office of International
Programs points with pride to a
six-year agricultural economics
program developed for Argen
tina’s National Institute of Agri
cultural Technology.
Sponsored by the federal Agen
cy for International Development
(AID), the program aim is to
upgrade Argentina’s agricultural
economics through graduate
training at A&M and research in
Argentina. The program began
Feb. 1, 1964, and ends Dec. 31
of this year.
“The major overall objective
was to establish an active and
effective agricultural economics
service and contribute to the
establishment of the agricultural
economics discipline in Argen
tina,” said Dr. Jack D. Gray, In
ternational Programs director.
He pointed out the program is
a project of the College of Agri
culture through the Agricultural
Economics Department. The Of
fice of International Programs
coordinated the efforts.
Dr. Gray said the university
became involved when the AID
mission in Argentina contracted
to develop agricultural economics
programs within Argentina’s In
stitute Nacional De Tecnologia
Agropecuaria (I NT A).
I NT A is the agency for the
Argentina government and Texas
A&M is the U. S. government’s
agent, Gray added.
There are two major points in
the agreement. First, A&M grad
uate school professors were to
implement the program. Second
was the election of professional
Argentina agriculturalists for
graduate school training at A&M.
Twelve students were selected
and completed the master’s pro
gram. One Argentina student is
currently working on a Ph.D. in
agricultural economics.
The students’ training was
broken into three parts, which
Dr. Gray called unique in for
eign student education programs.
English and basic agricultural
economics was taught in Argen
tina. A&M professors instructed
the economics courses and the
Argentina government provided
English instruction.
Then the students came to
A&M for course work towards
the master’s degree in agricul
tural economics, including accept
ance of thesis proposals.
“The research topics selected
were of major importance,” Dr.
Gray said, “and will have lasting
benefits to the producers and the
country as the results are made
available.”
A&M professors in Argentina
supervised the writing of the
theses.
The completed theses was re
turned to A&M by mail, reviewed,
submitted and approved by the
Graduate College and orals were
then given in Argentina by the
staff members.
“The unique feature is giving
graduate training by the stand
ard required by this campus, yet
research is conducted on prob
lems in the student’s home coun
try,” Gray said.
He noted that A&M also was
involved in the development of
the Graduate School of Agricul
tural Sciences at Castelar, Argen
tina. Dr. Clive R. Harston, form
er chief of party in Argentina,
served as director of the school
during its early stages of devel
opment.
Dr. Gray said the school will
serve at least five surrounding
countries. A&M has been asked
to assist in the continued devel
opment.
Argentina currently is nego
tiating with the InterAmerican
Development Bank for a program
in animal husbandry, range man
agement and farm credit.
Gray said A&M has been asked
to develop the program with sev
en faculty members to provide
technical assistance in Argen
tina.
The program also would in
clude nine or 10 short term —
two to four months — consult
ants from A&M.
Hirsch to discuss
highway hazards
Dr. Teddy J. Hirsch, A&M’s
“Faculty Lecturer—1970-71,” will
discuss “Defusing Roadside Booby
Traps” at a University Lecture
Series presentation at 8 p.m. Mon
day in the Memorial Student Cen
ter ballroom.
The admission-free lecture is
open to the general public, said
Dr. W. A. Landmann, University
Lectures Committee chairman.

the extra effort, time and self-
imposed discipline required.
“My brother studied pharma
cology at Texas. He had a nice
off-campus apartment, a good
time and often asked why his
little brother was going through
all that at A&M,” Taylor related.
The brother graduated and
went to work at Muleshoe. He
recently quit, went through Of
ficer Training School for an Air
Force commission and is now in
flight training on a seven-year
hitch.
“He will probably make it a
career,” Taylor remarked drily.
of the Civil Engineering Depart
ment’s Structural Engineering
and Structural Mechanics Divi
sion. He also heads the Structural
Research Division of the univer
sity’s Texas Transportation In
stitute.
He is widely regarded as an
authority in the design of struc
tures contributing to highway
safety. He had key roles in TTI
research leading to development
of life-saving break-away high
way signs and impact attentua-
tion devices.

but Texas wins
Frank Ybarbo of A&M edged
Ricky Yarbrough of Texas for
first place at Austin Monday but
the Longhorn cross country team
took the team title in a quad
rangular cross country meet.
Ybarbo, with his fourth first
place finish in four meets this
year, ran the three mile distance
in 14:13 with Yarbrough clipping
the distance in 14:14.
Bruce Martin of Rice was third.
Texas won the team title with
38 points and Rice was second
with 48. A&M had 58 points -and
Baylor closed with 12 points.
Ruben Moncivaiz of A&M was
fifth in 14:27.
Also running for the Aggies
were Sammy Skinner, 14:48; Pat
Bradley, 15:11; Jim Haynie,
15:21; Dennis O’Brien, 15:37.
A&M does not have any more
meets scheduled before the SWC
meet at the University of Arkan
sas, Nov. 16, but coach Ted Nel
son said he probably will sched
ule another meet involving Texas,
Baylor and Rice next week.
Ybarbo placed seventh last
week in the NCAA District 6 six
mile race last week and Monci
vaiz tenth. It was Moncivaiz’
lowest finish in a meet other
than the regional contest and
that was due partly to a 15 mile
run he made the day before the
race to continue working toward
peak performance, Nov. 16.
