Pollution study gets renewal funds from governmen|
Texas A&M has received second
year funding from the U. S. Pub
lic Health Service for research
into sulphur dioxide as an air
pollutant.
Dr. Jack H. Lunsford, associate
professor of chemistry, heads the
study.
PHS’s Office of National Air
Pollution Control authorized $16,-
265 for the second year of the
three-year program. Lunsford re
ceived $16,221 for the fiscal year
1970-71.
On a tonnage basis, sulphur di
oxide is one of the greatest con
tributors to air pollution, Luns
ford noted. It is a byproduct of
the mining industry and a bum-
off from coal and hydrocarbons.
“We are basically trying to
understand how the molecules are
adsorbed and their properties in
the adsorbed state,” Lunsford ex
plained.
The research also explores ways
sulphur reacts to oxides to make
useful products, such as sulphuric
acid, he added.
Welfare.
“Our goal will be to supply cer
tain reduction techniques to a
prose passage such as a profes
sional journal article or chapter
from a textbook to produce a
result in the form of a telegram,”
Martin said.
“This ‘kernel information’ will
have comprehensibility compar
able to that of the material pre
sented in the traditional written
manner,” he added.
“The assumption we are mak
ing,” Martin said, “is that tradi
tional rules governing English
written composition have devel
oped quite independently of how
people learn.”
Rewrite study
funded by U.S.
Research in techniques of re
ducing written material to “ker
nel information” has been fund
ed here by the U. S. Office of
Education.
Investigation directed by Dr.
Giessen J. Martin will be con
ducted in the Human Learning
Research Laboratory of the Edu
cational Psychology Department.
Martin said development of a
method of communicating written
material more efficiently will be
the purpose of the three-year,
$104,000 project. The grant was
made by the U.S.O.E. basic re
search program of the Depart
ment of Health, Education and
Marine law topic
of seminar series
“Marine and Environmental
Law” will be the focal point of
a series of seminars which begin
today.
Conducted by Visiting Professor
Walter J. McNichols, the sessions
are co-sponsored by the Center
for Marine Resources and the
College of Business Administra
tion.
“Territorial Seas and the Con
tiguous Zones” will be discussed
at the initial 4 p.m. meeting in
room 226 of the university libra
ry. The seminars are open to the
public.
McNichols holds the LL.M. de
gree in ocean law from the Uni
versity of Miami. He received the
J.D. degree from De Paul Uni
versity.
In conjunction with the semi
nars, McNichols will teach “Ma
rine and Coastal Law,” a three-
hour graduate level course, dur
ing the second summer session.

cultivated plants practiced by the
border people.
“Of approximately 360 drug
plants that have been identified
for the area,” Dr. Kimber said,
“about 160 are used regularly in
the folk drug trade. But we know
very little about them.”
Scientists will
plan cruise
Scientists will meet at Texas
A&M University July 1-2 to plan
a research cruise into the Antarc

It's easy to become enamored
of the "woods and templed hills"
... to fall in love with the "rocks
and rills" ... to hear freedom
ringing "from every mountain
side."
But look at the boy in our pic
ture. See him not only silhouetted
against a valley in the Great
Smokies . . . see him in a Kansas
cornfield ... on a Brooklyn
street.
The day has long passed when
America could believe that her
mountains and prairies were fit
ting evidence of her greatness.
Scriptures selected by the American Bible Society
Even the pride of the historic
Pilgrims has little impact on this
atomic age.
MEN — they make a nation
great!
And this boy is one of them
. . . young . . . eager . . . ready
for destiny.
He's one of the free—yes!
But one of the NOBLE free?
That depends — on the truths
we teach him ... on the Faith
we share with him ... on the
part that God, the Author of
Liberty, is to have in his life.
