Author revises Panhandle history
An informal history of the Texas
’anhandle. Between Sun and Sod,
urs been published by the Texas
University Press.
The 200-page book ($12.50) by
Millie Newbury Lewis is a revised
md expanded version of a volume
irst published in a small edition in
1938 and unavailable for many years.
Included in the book are reprod
uctions of H. D. Bugbee’s original
pen-and-ink illustrations.
Mrs. Lewis explains in the preface
that the book began as a desire to
preserve for her children a perma
nent record of their father’s early life
on the Panhandle Plains.
“As my interest and understand
ing of the subject increased, I came
to realize that the story of my hus
band and the story of the region were
closely related, and that, for the sake
of coherence, his story should be
preceded by the story of the land
that produced him,” she said.
Mrs. Lewis, who was reared in
Dallas, went to the High Plains with
her rancher-husband as a bride in
1912.
The frontier had passed by then,
but she knew many of the oldtimers
and observed firsthand what re
mained of an earlier way of life. Her
account of the civilizing of the region
is based largely on personal inter
views and correspondence with
some 50 of the men and women who
made it happen.
Introduction is by Fred Rathjen.

Washington, D.C. Available funds
for the work and related expenses
are budgeted at $50,000.

completed works by the sculptors

The selection committee will con
sist of three Lubbock citizens and
three persons appointed by the Na
tional Endowment. This committee
of six will select the sculptor and re

Inquiries, brochures and photo

Army, Air Force and Navy-
Marine Corps programs at Texas
A&M University will send almost
300 cadets to summer field training
this year.
In four- to six-week sessions,
cadets will train in military units and
assignments that help prepare them
for commissioning as U.S. armed
forces officers.
Col. Thomas R. Parsons, com
mandant, said summer training
meshes with individual program
work and Corps of Cadets experi
ence. It has a record of success in
officer production at Texas A&M
that goes back over many years.
Naval ROTC cruises, at ports and
bases around the world, account for
46 percent of the trainees. Col. Jack
Ivins, professor of naval science, said
130 midshipmen will be assigned
throughout the U.S., and on ships
operating out of the Philippines, Ja
pan, Scotland and Hawaii. Two
cadets will be on foreign exchange
cruises, in West Germany and Swe
den.
Air Force ROTC field training will
involve 57 Aggies. They will be; bil
leted at McConnel AFB, Kan.; Lack-
land and Dyess in Texas; Dover,
Del.; Holloman, N. Mex., and Van-
denberg, Calif. The professor of
aerospace studies, Col. Robert El
kins, said basic orientation of cadets
will be at a variety of installations.
Pilot contract cutbacks have limited
the program.
Army summer camp at Fort Riley,
Kan., will involve 88 A&M cadets.
Another five will go to Ranger
School, at Fort Benning, Ga., in lieu
of the regular Third ROTC Region
camp. Five of the Riley- and
Benning-bound cadets will also at
tend Airbone School.
Diego and Camp Pendleton, Calif;
Corpus Christi and Charleston, S.C,
They get surface orientation on de
stroyers, amphibious warfare, Naval
aviation flights and submarine orien
tation.
The program will have 20 seniors
at Quantico, Va., for ‘ Bulldog
Marine officer basic. It is a six-weeli
camp starting June 28.
Senior NROTC cruises offourto
six weeks will put Aggie midshipmen
on vessels in the Far East, Hawaii
and various West Coast ports. Sev
eral will also he on the East Coast
They will take part in a 20 ship
Bicentennial Naval Review off Nor
folk.
NROTC summer assignments are
more complex due to the dual nature
of the program for Navy and Marine
Corps officer candidates. Cadets in
the Navy segment make two sum
mer cruises, for orientation and
more specific training.
Forty-seven juniors are headed
for career orientation cruise, which
will involve one week each at San
Seven seniors will lie on nuclear
powered ships, of which six will he

Coast and from Holy Loch, Scot

then pick up the trap and “trapee
when notified by the borrower.
The police take the cats and other
domestic animals to veterinarian
Sam P. Scainardo. The animals are
kept at the Anderson Ridge Clime,
1101 Anderson, for three days. If an
animal is properly tagged, the owner
will he contacted. Unclaimed ani
mals are sent to the AdVM Veterinary
School where they are held for a
week. The animals are then usedfor
research. Racoons, opossums, and
other wild animals are released at
the city dump.
There are three traps available to
citizens. If a citizen does not know
how to use the trap correctly,
Humane Officer L. L. Fitzgerald
will demonstrate the proper set up.
The traps are most commonly placed
in back yards and near gardens.
Tuna, fruit, and boiled chicken are
used as bait to catch cats, coons,
skunks and opossums.
Fitzgerald says there is no possi-
hility of a child’s wandering into one
of the traps because the cages are too
small.

Two Texas A&M electrical en
gineering faculty members, Dr
William L. Beasley and Dr. John?
German, have invented and mar
keted a radio noise detector.
The device has brought money to
them, the Texas A&M Research
Foundation that found the market
and the Texas Engineering Experi-
ment Station, a part of tne Texas
A&M System.
Beasley and German began work
ing on the detector several years ago.
It allows power company workers
quickly to pinpoint powerline dis
turbances causing radio noise, most
noticeable as television interfer
ence.
Under Texas A&M System Board
of Regent guidelines, the Research
Foundation can inquire into the po
tential success of any inventionbyan
A&M employe at no cost to the in
ventor. Any resulting money is di
vided among the foundation, TEES
and creators.
