‘Where Aggies Trade’
Aggies work out the kinks
By CLIFFORD BROYLES
The Texas Aggies had first-
game fever Tuesday night and,
despite their opening loss to Ste
phen F. Austin, things still are
looking up for a good year with
Aggie basketball.
Whatever it is uncertain but
it always takes a little time to
get the kinks out and the Aggies
just happened to run into a good
SFA team for their opener.
The Lumberjacks, meanwhile,
were in their third game of the
season and they, too, had their
opening-game problems only a
week ago when they lost to the
Henderson State College Reddies
88-83, at Arkadelphia, Ark., in
overtime.
The Aggies turned the ball over
19 times in the contest but han
dled the Lumberjacks’ press with
crisp passing for most of the first
half.
But when the cold shooting
streak hit with about 12 minutes
left in the game, the Aggies hit
a snag and the Lumberjacks—
with a little extra playing time
and a little more sure of them
selves—took advantage and road
the wings of that streak to the
win.
Another decisive factor was the
board work. In the first half the
Aggies won the battle of the
backboards 19-11 but were badly
beaten in the second half, espe
cially on the offensive end.
“We didn’t do anything that
can’t be corrected,” Coach Shelby
Metcalf said Wednesday after
having a chance to analyze films
of the game.
“I just hope the fans will give
us another chance and I think
we’ll show’um what we can do
Friday night against East Tex
as.”
Metcalf said he still is looking
for the right combination after
the game, as he played 11 of the
12 men suited up.
He played 10 of those in the
first half and just about every
body had some bright spots. It
showed that this Aggie team will
have a lot of good depth later in
the season, when it is needed.
Friday night the Aggies will
be out to grab win number one
after getting their machinery
tested Tuesday against Stephen
F. Austin.
That machinery showed signs
of raggedness, but a little playing
time Friday against East Texas
and Monday against the Universi
ty of Texas at Arlington should
go a long way toward fixing that.

Why doesn't
Genera) tlectric sell new ideas
to the cities instead of
new gadgets to the suburbs?
After thirty years ormore of
neglect, there's no question our cities
need help.
But what kind of help?
Will another thousand sanitation
men be the answer to dirty streets?
Will doubling the police force
finally bring crime under control?
Can new rent laws force
landlords to provide more low-
income housing?
All the old, obvious ideas have
been tried. What's needed are new
ideas and new technological
developments.
General Electric has been
working on the problems of cities for
a number of years now. And in that
time we've come up with some
things we think will help.
Crime
You might not expect a company
like General Electric to be doing
anything about crime.
But the fact is, GE has been
working with the Syracuse police,
looking for a new approach to the
problem. Our scientists there came
up with a whole new concept in
police organization called “Crime
Control Teams."
In their first year, these teams
were credited with cutting crime
62% in one large, representative
neighborhood of Syracuse. And the
concept has since been adopted by a
number of other cities.
“gadgets' to help people.
We don't think our home
products are at all unnecessary or
frivolous. If they seem that way, it's
because people have forgotten how
much they rely on them. To wash
dishes. To wash clothes. To keep
warm. To keep cool. To entertain.
And on and on.
New ideas for the cities and
new “gadgets" for the home both
have the same end in mind, after all.
To help people live better.
Garbage
General Electric research has
come up with what is probably the
most revolutionary idea in garbage
disposal in years. Our scientists are
working toward a process by which a
special strain of bacteria converts
garbage into a high-protein food
for cattle.
The process is still something of
a “laboratory trick," but it could be
in the pilot-plant stage in as little
as three years.
Housing
To meet the critical need for
new low-income housing. General
Electric is participating in the
Department of Housing and Urban
Development's Operation
Breakthrough.
While GE has no intention of
going into commercial home
building, we do hope to supply the
builder-developer with new products
needed to improve his efficiency.
We now have several design
prototypes of advanced, modular
homes that can be assembled in a
matter of hours.
These are just a few of the new
ideas General Electric has come up
with to help cities at the same time
that we continue to improve
Why are we running this ad?
We're running this ad, and
others like it, to tell you the things
General Electric isdoing to solve
the problems of man and his
environment today.
The problems concern us
because they concern you. We're a
business and you are potential
customers and employees.
But there's another, more
important reason. These problems
will affect the future of this country
and this planet. We have a stake in
that future. As businessmen. And,
simply, as people.
We invite your comments.
