One of America’s most beautiful and most youthful ambassadors
of good will—Rewa Colette Walsh, Miss Teenage America 1971—will
speak to about 2,400 4-H Club members and adults Thursday during
the State 4-H Roundup here.
I Miss Walsh, 17, is scheduled to speak at a 6:30 p.m. banquet in
jsbisa Dining Hall. Her topic is “America the Beautiful—Seen Dimly
Through the Smog.”
She will arrive in College Station on Texas International Airlines
at 1:30, visit with some 4-H’ers, and then appear on “Town Talk” on
KBTX-TV at 3:30.
She is a senior at Magnolia High School in Anaheim, California
where she is a member of the National Honor Society and the
California Scholarship Federation. She also is a cheerleader and editor
of her high school newspaper, among many other activities. Besides this
she works an hour a day with emotionally handicapped children at an
elementary school.
The teen-age Miss is an American citizen although she was born in
Sydney, Australia. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Marasco, moved
to New York when she was four years old. Her unusual first name
(pronounced Ree-wa) is an aboriginal word for good luck.
She says there is a lot of talk about a generation gap, but what
really exists is a communication gap. As Miss Teenage America, she tries
to talk to people of her generation and that of her parents.
“No matter what age, color, or nationality a person is, there is a
language that can unify all nations of the world, and that is the
language of friendship—a smile,” she claims.
After graduating from high school she hopes to attend the
University of Southern California or the University of San Diego.
“I hope to be a professor of English or work with emotionally
handicapped children,” she says.
Biomedical electronics offered
Texas A&M’s Institute of
Electronic Science will add bio
medical electronics to its curricu
lum this fall in an attempt to
meet the growing needs of hos
pitals and medical research fa
cilities, announced Engineering
Extension Service Director H. D.
Bearden.
Institute Instructor Kenneth
Bratz will attend a six-week
workshop at Baylor University
College of Medicine in Houston
June 15 to July 23 to study the
medical needs and how to incor
porate those needs into elec
tronics courses.
Bratz received a fellowship
from Baylor to attend classes in
biomedical electronics and ex
perimental physiology.
The Institute has an 18-month
school for electronics technicians
with emphasis on communica
tions and instrumentation.
“Our graduating students have
a very advanced knowledge of
electronics,” Bratz said. “The
only real problem is to find out
how much physiology they need
and how we can give it to them.”
Several Institute graduates
have entered biomedical elec
tronics and one served as the
technician on Dr. Michael De-
Bakey’s heart surgery team.
Bratz said medical experts pre
dict the need for medical elec
tronics specialists will increase
by 300 per cent within the next
five years.
“Right now, the armed forces
are providing most of the elec
tronics technicians to Texas hos
pitals,” he said.
Many small hospitals have only
a maintenance man with basic
electronics knowledge servicing
equipment, he added.
Bratz said he believes medical
terminology and an understand
ing of medical equipment may be
all that is needed for the insti
tute to produce a well-educated
biomedical technician.
“Most medical electronic equip
ment has modifications well
known to our students,” Bratz
said.
He plans to spend a lot of time
talking with doctors and hospital
staff members while at the Bay
lor Medical Center to find out
their needs.
Courses for second and third
semester students will have bio
medical applications added dur
ing the fall semester, he said.
Chief Instructor Arlie Patton
said he hopes the program also
will benefit the local medical fa
cilities.
“Because we are non-credited,
our program is very flexible,”
Patton explained. “We have to
cater to the needs of industry
because electronics is a rapidly
changing field.”
Bratz was a member of the
first institute class that gradu
ated in 1965. He worked for Tex
aco and Tektronix Inc., before
joining the institute faculty in
February 1970.
The institute has 68 students,
including several with medic
backgrounds from the armed
forces. The 18-month program
has almost the same number of
class hours as a four-year aca
demic college degree program,
Patton said.
Rewa Calette Walsh, Miss Teenage America for 1971, will talk to those attending the
4-H Roundup here.

‘distorted’ version of war
$100 gift honors A&M grads
A Princeton graduate has made
a $100 gift to the Texas A&M
student body in appreciation for
the “type of graduate being
turned out by your institution.”
Claude K. Williams of Wil
liams Brothers Construction Co.
in Houston sent the check to the
Texas A&M Development Fund.
“In my opinion there would
not be the domestic turmoil
among the young people today if
more institutions of higher learn
ing would follow the example of
Texas A&M University and the
principle to which it is dedicat
ed,” Williams wrote. He is a
1945 graduate of Princeton Uni
versity.
Dr. Jack K. Williams, A&M
president, said the money will
support approved study body
functions and activities during
the coming year.
An official of the Pakistan Em
bassy in Washington has written
A&M President Dr. Jack K. Wil
liams expressing his concern over
a recent Battalion article concern
ing Aggie Exes involved in the
Pakistani civil war.
M. Akram Zaki wrote concern
ing an interview May 12 with
Kamaluddin Hyder, a native Paki
stani, current treasurer of the
Graduate Student Council (GSC).
Hyder asked the GSC earlier in
May to adopt a resolution con
demning West Pakistan for armed
aggression and asking President
Richard Nixon to boycott all for
eign aid to Pakistan until the war
is over.
Zaki expressed concern in his
letter to Williams that the Hyder
interview gave a “distorted ver
sion of the recent developments
in Pakistan.”
Hyder was quoted concerning
the “atrocities” taking place now
in his country, involving Texas
A&M graduates who have re
turned to Pakistan.
“It was a full-scale invasion
of unarmed civilians,” Hyder said.
“And the arms used to slaughter
those civilians were given to Paki
stan by the United States to de
fend it against communism. All
foreign reporters were expelled
so the world would not know what
is going on.
“Reports have leaked out that
as many as 50 professors at the
university at Dacca have been
killed. The troops killed a whole
dormitory of students while they
slept. The students are under
standably upset,” Hyder said.
“The West Pakistani army is

the educational investment they
are about to make.
Thirty faculty and staff mem
bers in admissions and registrar’s
offices, Counseling and Testing
Center, Housing Office, School of
Military Science and the various
colleges are involved in smooth
ing the way for the new student.
Students are oriented on Army
and Air Force ROTC — for those
selecting Corps of Cadets mem

activities, photographed for iden
tification cards, measured for uni
forms if applicable and can pur

ernment, the universities and the
communities in East Pakistan,”
Hyder said. “Already over 10,000
people have been exterminated in
my home town of Dacca, the
capital of East Pakistan.
Zaki, of the Pakistani Embassy,
said that the army action was
resorted to “most reluctantly
when no other course was left
open.” He compared the Pakis
tan conflict to England’s inter
vention in North Ireland, where
the military took action against
armed bands and lawless mobs
which were constantly breaking
the law and committing crimes.
Hyder had claimed the purpose
of the government extermination
was to wipe out the intelligencia
of East Pakistan, and that in
cluded 200 Aggie Exes.
Zaki said his government’s po
sition was one where a threat
of sucession was met by armed
forces.
“The armed forces, having re
stored law and order, are now
engaged in relief and rehabilita
tion efforts and the president of
Pakistan has renewed his pledge
to work for the establishment of
the representative government in
East Pakistan as soon as pos
sible,” Zaki said.
Zaki added it is up to the Pakis-
tani government to settle the
“family quarrel” among them
selves and “no outsiders” had any
right to intervene.”
