Two facilities get
renamed to honor
A&M contributors
By Mary-Lynne Rice
Staff Writer
Two facilities on the Texas A&M
campus were renamed this weekend
in honor of financial contributors
Royce E. Wisenbaker, Class of 1939
and E.M. “Manny” Rosenthal, Class
of 1942.
The Royce E. Wisenbaker Engi
neering Research Center was ded
icated Saturday morning at the En
gineering Physics Building.
The research center, which
opened in 1983, includes offices,
classrooms and laboratories. It is the
headquarters for the Texas A&M
Engineering program and the Texas
Engineering Experiment Station.
Wisenbaker, a member of the
A&M Board of Regents, established
a $1 million endowed chair and two
$100,000 endowed graduate
fellowships for A&M’s College of
Engineering.
Wisenbaker was also the Universi
ty’s first contributor to the Presi
dent’s Endowed Scholarship Pro
gram.
A portrait of Wisenbaker was un
veiled at the ceremony.
Friday afternoon, the Rosenthal
Meat Science and Technology Cen
ter was dedicated with the unveiling
of a bust of Rosenthal.
Rosenthal, head of the Standard
Meat Company of Fort Worth, es
tablished an endowed chair in meat
science and provided funds for a
professorship, said James Dooley,
animal science academic business ad
ministrator.
Rosenthal also provided a schol
arship for A&M junior and senior
meat judging teams. He was also the
first $>1,000 contributor to the Meat
Judging Fund of the Texas A&M
Development Foundation.
Dooley has provided several uni
versities with a travel grant to partic
ipate in the Southwestern Meat
Judging Contest.
Also on Friday, the Texas Engi
neering Experiment Station Regen
erative Concepts Laboratory was
dedicated with an appreciation
speech to General Electric Co., a ma
jor contributor to A&M’s space stud
ies program.
“GE has given A&M a big system
that simulates a space capsule,” Jane
Mills Smith, information representa
tive with the experiment station In
formation Office, said. “It simulates
the water and waste that would be
generated by for astronauts in a
space capsule. ”

cant than an immediate loss of prop
erty, she said.
Now the fertilizer barn is destroyed
and so is the hay barn. All our fences
are down. We just hope the cows
don’t run away.”
“This is my father’s homestead
and his business,” she said. “He sells
fertilizer and hay and raises cattle.
He also rented the homes we lost.
Behind the Gerdes home, a ferti
lizer spreader is overturned beside
the fallen shed. A tractor is trapped
by a maze of branches. And there
are no cows in sight.
