Cotton Gets Top Chemistry Award
m
Dr. Albert Cotton
Dr. Albert Cotton, the Robert
A. Welch Distinguished Profes
sor of Chemistry at A&M, is the
winner of the American Chemi
cal Society’s 1974 Award for Dis
tinguished Service in the Ad
vancement of Inorganic Chemis
try.
The award, sponsored by the
Mallinckrodt Chemical Works of
St. Louis, consists of a $2,000
honorarium and a certificate. It
was established in 1963 to hon
or chemists who have demon
strated extensive contributions to
inorganic chemistry in such fields
as teaching, writing, research and
administration.
Dr. Cotton came to A&M in
1971 after 17 years of teaching
and research at the Massachus
etts Institute of Technology. He
received his B.A. degree from
Temple University in 1951 and
the Ph.D. from Harvard in 1955.
Cotton also holds an honorary
Doctor of Science degree from
Temple .
A textbook Dr. Cotton wrote
with Prof. Geoffrey Wilkinson of
England, “Advanced Inorganic
Chemistry,” is considered the
“bible” of inorganic chemistry to
day. Another of his texts that
is used universally is “Chemical
Applications of Group Theory.”
Cotton’s research has centered
on the links that can arise be
tween metal atoms in certain in
organic systems called coordina
tion compounds. The professor’s
description of the metal-to-metal
bonding in one particular rheni
um chloride complex was adapted
by the Soviet Union and the
compound was placed on one of
their postage stamps.
Recipient of many honors, in.

Texas Farmers
Set New Levels
In Production
Texas farmers and livestock
raisers are setting new produc
tion levels this year, Agriculture
Commissioner John White re
ported.
Records, according to White,
are being tied or broken for
wheat, cotton, grain sorghum,
corn, peanuts, soybeans, oats,
barley, rye and rice. Texas is
first in the nation in cotton and
grain sorghum and fourth in
wheat production.
Texas cattle on feed total 2.3
million, said White, about 700,000
more than the second-ranking
state, Iowa, and an increase of
nine per cent over last year.
White said cattle producers mar
keted more cattle during June
and July than they did a year
ago, proving that they are not
holding back because of the price
freeze on beef.
White predicted that removal
of the beef price ceiling will not
cause skyrocketing of meat
prices and may even help bring
them down.
He said there are warning
signs consumer resistance to the
rising prices of food products is
stiffening.
