We’re looking for the best
graduates in the nation.
That’s why we’re interviewing
at Texas A&M University.
'SpgemJ. "*•**‘7 'V-- ... . *****
We’ve grown because we ve made it a practice to employ the brightest, most capable people available.
Which is exacdy why we’re coming here.
We’re Halliburton Services, the largest oil field service company in the world. We provide a
full range of highly technical, extremely complex services to the petroleum and other industries. This
visit, we’re interviewing for positions in the following areas of our business:
Field
Engineering
Manufacturing or
Plant Engineering
Research and
Development
Equipment
Engineering
Increasingly, our customers
—both major and
independent petroleum
companies—rely on the
skills of our engineers to
engineer oil and gas well
cementing, stimulation,
and remedial services. As
a field engineer, you’ll be
responsible for thoroughly
analyzing the needs of
your customer’s well,
engineering the service
or treatment design,
presenting your
recommendations to your
customer, marshalling the
equipment necessary to
perform the service, and
supervising the Halliburton
personnel on the job.
Field engineering
demands an individual
with excellent engineering
abilities and who is willing
to accept tremendous
responsibility within
a few months of
joining Halliburton.
To maintain our exacting
quality standards
Halliburton manufactures
the vast majority of the
equipment we use in
providing our services. To
keep up with booming
demands we operate
several manufacturing
facilities in the U.S. and
abroad. We offer a unique
challenge because our
work involves both long
production runs and job
shop operations.
As an engineer in
this department, your
responsibilities can range
from developing
manufacturing procedures
for a new product to
evaluating quality
control procedures.
Individuals selected
for manufacturing
opportunities must have a
high degree of technical
ability, the personality to
work effectively with
people, and a healthy dose
of horse sense.
A major reason for
Halliburton’s leadership
position is the constant
flow of new products,
techniques, and procedures
from our Research
and Development
Departments. The
departments are widely
recognized as both the
most productive and the
largest of their type in the
world. The departments
function in four basic areas
—Chemical, Mechanical,
Electrical, and Tools.
Several different
professional disciplines are
required. Eventually you’ll
be assigned primary
responsibility for an entire
project. It is a position that
requires an individual with
a unique understanding of
how to practically apply
theoretical concepts, able
to communicate with field
personnel, and who enjoys
the challenge of expanding
an entire industry’s
technological base.
One important reason for
our leadership in oil field
services is the rugged
dependability of our
equipment. Virtually every
piece of service equipment
we use is designed and
built by Halliburton
people. As an equipment
engineer, you’ll be given
responsibility for a
specific project.
That responsibility
will include all engineering,
introducing your product
to Halliburton field
personnel, and trouble
shooting in the field. You’ll
take charge of the complete
project from inception to
successful field
performance.
Equipment
engineering demands an
individual who is able to
cross interdisciplinary
lines, who can work well
with other engineers and
non-technical people, and
who has the ability to
communicate well.
Sign up now at the placement office.
On campus interviews February 8.
Halliburton Services personnel will be on campus to interview candidates for positions in these areas:
Field
Engineering
Manufacturing
Engineering

Davis jury vote told
Juror says 4 conned
United Press International
HOUSTON — One of the eight
jurors who contended T. Cullen
Davis was guilty of solicitation of
murder says the dissenting jurors
were conned by the millionaire’s re
spectable image and the presenta
tion of his defense.
Despite an oath not to reveal
which way the jury had voted, James
W. Morrison Tuesday revealed the
breakdown of the jury that deliber
ated through 43 hours and 14 votes
without reaching a verdict, causing a
mistrial to be declared.
“They wanted to believe Davis is
respectable and therefore he’s got a
nice lawyer and the good guys
couldn’t possible be the bad guys,’’
Morrison said.
“I think this guy is a walking
bomb. I guess there’s a lot of people
in Fort Worth who think so, too.
Morrison said jury foreman Mary
Carter, 47, a medical secretary, and
jurors Vera Miller, 57, a personnel
stenographer; Helen M. Hill, 47, a
bookkeeper, and Charles Franks,
31, an engineer, resisted conviction.
He hinted defense lawyer Richard
“Racehorse” Haynes’s sex appeal
was a key.
“They would not admit to being
taken in by him,” Morrison said.
“We confronted them with that.
They were quick to say no’ — maybe
a little too quick.”
Morrison said the tapes convinced
him of Davis’s guilt.
“For me, it had to be guilty. The
tapes were the all-important thing,”
Morrison said. “They said MeCrory
controlled the conversations. He
didn’t really. It isn’t necessarily the
guy who makes the most noise.
“As far as the rest of us were con
cerned, when they talked about kill
ing people, that’s what they meant. ”
“The people who were (voting) not
guilty pretty much believed Davis’s
story and they believed Karen Mas
ter’s story about the FBI, Morrison
said, referring to testimony from the
defendant’s mistress that he was
telephoned by the FBI.
Davis testified he cooperated with
MeCrory in making audio tapes
about murder for pay because the
GOP chooses
Detroit in ’80
FBI told him McCrorywasi
tion suspect and he should
along.”
Morrison, 50, a mt
technologist, said Franks’s
was “a good deal weaker I
women’s and was based o
about Davis’ friend-tin
informant and chief accuser,)
MeCrory.
“H is was based on the facttl
thought MeCrory’s story wasil
Morrison said.
Morrison said defense
“made reasonable doubt looll
very formidable thing.”
Morrison said some jurorsdi
understand the concept of i
able doubt.
“The people who understand!
the people who are usedtonj
decisions and sticking by them,'
said. “One person kept sayind
doubt, and that’s not true.
Other jurors stuck to a
ment not to disclose or con
split. Helen Farmer, 48, uift|
NASA employee, said Morris
sending reporters “down
trails” with disclosures
not be true.
“I wouldn’t put too muchsti
Jim Morrison’s statements,

DETROIT — The Republican Party picked a city on the rebound —
symbolic of its own presidential hopes — for its 1980 national conven
tion.
City fathers said they felt the GOP decision will help Detroit shed its
lingering image as a center of crime and racial unrest and add
momentum to its drive towards revitalization.
State Republican officials said it also could improve the image of the
GOP.
“The decision to hold the convention in the Renaissance City will
help focus national attention on the progress which we have made in
revitalizing our urban areas and will underscore the resurgence of the
Republican Party, Michigan Gov. William G. Milliken said.
“It will emphasize the fact that just as Detroit is being rejuvenated,
the Republican Party is being rejuvenated.
Milliken, who was vacationing in the Virgin Islands, worked closely
with Mayor Coleman A. Young to secure the GOP bid, which was
announced Tuesday in Washington.
Young, a vice chairman of the National Democratic Committee and
one of President Carter’s closest black supporters, said he will now
concentrate on securing the Democratic convention for Detroit.
Auto magnate Henry Ford II, a major supporter of the new
downtown Renaissance Center complex that features a 1,200-room
hotel, said he also will try to convince Democrats "that Detroit is the
place to be in 1980.
The Republican convention will begin July 14, 1980, at spacious
Coho Hall, which can seat 4,400 delegates and alternates and more
than 12,000 spectators. The Democrats are expected to hold their
convention the following month.
At a news conference Tuesday, Young posed with a photograph that
showed him riding a zoo elephant — symbol of the GOP. He boasted
that Detroit, despite its poor national image, is one of the country’s five
leading convention cities.
“Through this national convention, the entire world will see that
Detroit, which once was declared dead, is indeed alive and well and
that we have recovered from the maladies of our past,” he said.
