Students will rebuild five fire truck pumpers
Fire truck pumpers from Kil
gore, Huntsville and Snook will
be rebuilt to meet the state ac
ceptance test during the 42nd
annual Texas Firemen's Training
School July 18-23.
Henry D. Smith, chief instruc
tor at the Engineering Extension
Service here, said the three pump
ers will be rebuilt by an 80-man
pump maintenance class.
The course is one of 14 offered
during the one-week municipal
school. Instructors are fire de
partment master mechanics and
techincal representatives from
manufacturing firms.
“All repair parts and materials
e purchased by the cities,”
Smith explained, “with labor fur
nished by the class.”
He said the firemen also will
work with about $10,00 worth of
new pumps donated by manufac
turers as a teaching aid.
Purpose of the class is to give
community firemen the training
to do maintenance work them
selves, saving the local depart
ment labor costs, Smith explained.
“Texas cities spend millions of
dollars each year for new equip
ment and repair of old equip
ment. We’ll show the men how
to do their own maintenance
and more importantly, proper
preventive maintenance,” Smith
added.

Issue,” is sponsored by the Wild
life and Fisheries Sciences De
partment. Thirty-five secondary
school science teachers attending
the National Science Foundation’s
ecology institute here July 5 to
Aug. 13 will attend the program.
Dr. Richard J. Baldauf, wild
life professor and institute direc
tor, said Dr. Brogstrom is a rec
ognized authority on world food
resources and their utilization,
food freezing and frozen food
bacteriology.
A native of Sweden, Dr. Brog
strom joined Michigan State Uni
versity in 1956 and currently is
professor of food science and eco
nomic geology at MSU.
Prior to coming to the United
States in 1956, he organized and
headed consecutively two major
food research institutes in Swe
den.
Last week the Associated Press
transmitted a lengthy feature on
Dr. Brogstrom’s research and
views.
“Do we really expect that one-
third of the (world’s) people will
always be allowed to eat two-
thirds of the food?” he asked in
the AP story.
He suggested there will be a
world-wide famine unless there is
international cooperation in meet
ing food demands.
The reality is, he said, that
earth’s resources are dwindling
rapidly and no scientific trickery
can meet the food demands of an
eVer-spiralihg population.
