Cancer expert to lecture here
Dr. Emmanuel Farber, an internationally known cancer
expert, will deliver Texas A&M’s first Center for Compara
tive Medicine lecture today.
Farber, chairman of pathology at the University of
Toronto medical school, will speak at 4 p.m. in Room 201 of
the Veterinary Medical Sciences Building. The topic is “De
velopment of Liver Cancer with Chemicals in Rodents: Its
Importance in Understanding Human Disease.”
Farber also holds the rank of biochemistry professor at
Toronto, where he earned his M.D. degree in 1942. In
addition, he is chief pathologist for Toronto General Hospit
al and chairman of pathology at Toronto Western Hospital.
The Center for Comparative Medicine was established to
encourage research of mutual benefit to both veterinary and
human medicine. In addition, the center plans to invite
leading researchers in various fields to the campus to share
their knowledge in areas where human and veterinary
medical scientists have common goals.
Veterinary librarians to meet here
Forty veterinary librarians from across North America will
visit officials of the nation’s only clinical veterinary librarian
program today.
Clinical veterinary librarians mirror the duties per
formed by clinical medical librarians, who often accompany
physicians on rounds or meet with doctors when cases are
discussed.
Texas A&M is believed to be the only veterinary library in
the United States now carrying out a clinical veterinary libra
rian program.
The visiting veterinary librarians will travel to the campus
from Houston, where the Medical Library Association is
holding its annual meeting. A special program outlining the
history and use of the clinical librarian project is planned
during their visit.

Dow Chemical spills toxic solution
into city's drinking water supply
United Press International
FREEPORT — Dow Chemic
al spilled an undetermined
amount of caustic sodium hyd
roxide into Freeport’s drinking
water, a firefighter said
Saturday.
Dow employees refused to
comment on the spill that took
place Friday morning but went
unreported to Freeport police
for several hours.
But Jim Johnson, a Freeport
firefighter, said fire trucks were
called to the city water treatment
plant Saturday to flush out hold
ing tanks and filters.
“Evidently Dow had spilled
sodium hydroxide into the canal
supplying Freeport with drink
ing water,” he said. “From what
I understand, it was way over the
safety factor.”

Legislature
approves
dromedarys
United Press International
AUSTIN — Rep. Hugo Ber-
langa had better luck Saturday
with a camel racing proposal
than he did with his ill-fated
horse race betting bill.
Berlanga suffered a bitter de
feat earlier this month when the
House refused by a two-vote
margin to adopt his parimutuel
wagering bill. But he succeeded
in winning unanimous approval
Saturday of a resolution com
mending a camel-racing event
planned for July.
The Texas Camel Racers
Association plans to import 25
of the beasts from California to
Luckenbach, for the first annual
“World Championship Texas
Camel Races” July 2-4.
