Heldenfels,
Texas A&M graduate.
H.C. Heldenfels, credited with a
major role in helping “make Texas
A&M what it is today,” had his alma
mater’s newest building named in
his honor Saturday.
Dedicated to the teaching of sci
ence, H.C. Heldenfels Hall is a $5
million building described as one of
the most advanced audio-visual
equipped facilities of its type in the
nation.
In formally naming the facility for
the Corpus Christi businessman,
Texas A&M University System
Board of Regents Chairman Clyde
H. Wells cited Heldenfels’ con
tributions and service to his alma
mater, including 12-year member
ship on the Board of Regents. He
was board chairman in 1965-66.
“I can tell you forthrightly that we
all benefitted enormously through
the inspiration and guidance that he
provided during the 12 years that he
served on this board,” Wells ob-

Three scientists with the Ministry
of Agriculture in the USSR were
scheduled to visit Texas A&M Uni
versity today to study research on
iter erosion and control.
Their visit with Texas Agricultural
Experiment Station researchers is a
continuing part of the US-US SR
cooperative scientific exchange pro
gram, said Dr. Dudley T. Smith, as
sistant director of the Experiment
Station.
“Russian scientists are acknowl-
Iged world leaders in the study of
soil and erosion problems. It is a
tribute to Texas A&M that they
selected it as one of the universities
to visit and study research results,”
said Smith.
Smith and Dr. Jack R. Runkles,
director and professor of water re-
lources and soil physics with the
Texas Water Resources Institute,
xiordinated plans for the visit. As-
iisting them has been a representa-
:ive of the US-USSR Secretariat,
dary Ponomarenko.
Visiting scientists include S.I.
osov, director of the State Scien-
ic Research Institute of Land Re-
urces in the Ministry of Agrieul-
:ure; E.I. Tonanakin and A.N.
Grigorov, deputy chiefs of manage-
nent in the Ministry’s Land Use
Division.
Accompanying the scientists to
\&M is V.G. Sheremetev, an assis
tant agricultural attache with the
USSR Embassy in Washington,
DC.
The Russian scientists were
scheduled to confer with Experi
ment Station researchers of water
erosion of soils and related areas this
morning in the new Soil and Crop
Sciences Building on the West
Campus. Their plans also included
touring soil erosion practices and
structures, with officials of the Soil
Conservation Service directing the
tour.
On Tuesday, the visiting re
searchers will go to Temple to ob
serve research at the USDA’s Ag
ricultural Research Service facility.
From Texas, they will continue on
to Ohio and Illinois for additional
research observation before going to
the Bureau of Land Management in
Washington, D.C. They are
scheduled to return to the USSR at
the conclusion of their study in
Washington.

If you are being
commissioned
You may want to join
the Bank of A&M’s
World-Wide program.
When you go on active duty, your banking
requirements will change dramatically.
You’re going to move around the world.
Your need for credit and for cash will be
quite different from your classmates who
return to their hometown to work and live.
And the penalties for record keeping er
rors are more severe for military officers
than most (if not all) other professions.
The World-Wide Department of the Bank of A&M was conceived to meet the needs of A&M
officers on active duty. The department is staffed by Aggies with first hand experience of TDY,
overseas movement, car financing in a foreign city, check-cashing problems at a military
installation, allotments, telephone transfers, etc.
The World-Wide program includes all the features of the so-called “military banks’’: direct
paycheck deposit, telephone loan service, write your own loan program, overseas car financ
ing, automatic transfers from checking to savings (and visa versa), credit cards, overdraft
protection . . . plus personal service by senior bank officers with career military experience
and Aggie know-how.
Visit the Bank of A&M today (or some day of convenience) before your commissioning date to
learn how the Bank of A&M’s World-Wide Department can be of service to you.
