hade best cooling
method: scientist
One of the best ways to cut air-
mditioning costs in the hot sum-
er months is with nature’s own
oling system, said a Texas A&M
llniversity scientist.
In a research project examining
ow-cost energy-saving techniques,
brest science Professor Dr. Robert
Dewers said that the proper posi-
oning of shade trees can substan
tially reduce power consumption by
air-conditioners.
|1 “We know a tree canopy will re
duce temperatures in the air be-
jeath the tree," Dewers said. “Of
burse, it takes more than one tree
bhave a very substantial effect.”
| Because air-conditioning accounts
for more than 19 percent of all resi-
ential energy use in Texas — corn-
red with the national average of
U percent — Dewers’ advice to
omeowners is to plant more trees
nd protect the ones that are already
ere.
What Dewers calls nature’s air-
nditioner, the tree doesn’t so
uch air-condition as reduce solar
diation that can make indoor tem-
ratures reach a sweltering point
T quickly. Sunlight pouring
rough a closed window will take
a “greenhouse effect” raising the
temperature inside as heat is ab
sorbed. Absorbed heat also can be
collected in walls and the roof as
well.
Trees that provide high shade can
block off this build-up of solar-
radiation, said Ray Rudie, a
graduate student who works with
Dewers.
Some rapid-growing trees like the
cottonwood and the willow can
reach 15 feet in less than three
years. More hardy varieties that are
also fast growing are the pecan and
Shumard oak.
Rudie said these fast-growing
trees are not always the most desir
able because of their shorter life
spans and susceptibility to disease,
but they can be planted until stur
dier varieties are grown.
Other factors affecting air-
conditioning costs are color of the
house and roof, and the amount of
insulation already in the house. A
white roof will reflect much more
heat than it will absorb.
Rudie said a good place for shad
ing is on the west side of the house
where trees can block the late after
noon sun and adjacent to the house
where they can block the noon sun.

More money needed for animal shelter
The Brazos County Humane So
ciety is seeking an additional ap
propriation of $20,000 from the
Bryan City Council to build an ani
mal shelter.
The Council has already appro
priated $20,000, but Humane Soci
ety president Jean Duffey said the
additional money is needed to build
a good and adequate shelter.
In an awards luncheon last
Thursday to help kick off the soci
ety’s fifth year, Duffey called
Bryan’s present animal control pro
gram “cruel and ineffective.”
She said she believes that the city
of Bryan should work together with
the Humane Society to provide an
animal shelter.
Duffey said an additional $20,000
appropriation coupled with con
tributions from the society’s mem
bers and others would be enough to
start the shelter, but more money
would be needed to add im
provements.
“You start with what you can and
build from there,” she said.
At the luncheon last week the
Humane Society awarded certifi
cates to E.A. Holick, Dorothy
Holick and Mae Bess Holleman for
their continuing support to the or
ganization.
The Humanitarian Service Award
was given to Dr. Ralph H. Brock, a
veterinarian from Hearne. Brock
supplied the society with distemper
and worming medication tor ani
