HE BATTALION Friday, October 7, 1966 College Station, Texas Page 3

Campus interviews by more ban 250 companies and 30 fed­eral government agencies will be- in Monday.Wendell R. Horsley, director

if placement services, said yes- rday about 150 seniors had reg­

istered with his office for the interviews, but Mrs. Gladys Bish­op, his secretary, later noted that “quite a few students” signed up yesterday in addition.

The “headhunters,” or repre­sentatives of industry recruiting prospective employees, will con­duct interviews in the four inter­view rooms of the Y.M.C.A.

starting Monday morning and continuing, with a few open dates, until December 14.

“We can’t handle any applica­tions later than that date be­cause of the Christmas holidays,” Mrs. Bishop explained.

“We won’t schedule interviews during the week before Thanks­giving, or for the Monday after,” she added.

holidays, according to Mrs. Bish­op.

About 150 companies will schedule interviews here for the first time this year, Horsley said. Among the new companies is the Anheuser-Busch Corporation of St. Louis.

Interviews for the spring se­mester will begin February 13 and continue through April, and possibly into early May, with time off the week before Easter

“People are hearing what good students we have here at A&M,” Mrs. Bishop said of the increase, dent Employment on the second floor of the Y.M.C.A. Mrs. Bish­op pointed out that even though some companies do not supply forms, the employment office

has a standard form for each of these firms to be filled out.

Horsley urged students wish­ing to be interviewed to cooper­ate in filing application forms.

“It is very embarrassing for me when an interviewer asks to see a file on someone he has in­terviewed and I have to tell him there is none,” he explained.

Some 570 interview days have been scheduled as of Sept. 1, as compared to 425 last year. In addition, 586 schools sent calls here for teachers in 1965-66.

Individual interviews last year totaled 6,749.

Meteorologist Cites Danger In Weather Modification

Weather modification sounds fine in theory, a Texas A&M meteorologist said yesterday, but could cause plenty of trouble in actual practice.

If man ever succeeds in alter­ing weather, Dr. R. A. Clark said, pleasing all the citizens would be an almost impossible task — farmers and ranchers in particu­lar. Weather tampering could bring on serious social, economic and even religious problems.

from hurricanes and lesser wind and rain storms along the U. S. southeastern coast could seriously affect ground moisture, river flow and water table levels.

Clark, an associate professor in the Department of Meteorology, spoke to about 500 persons at­tending the opening session of the annual Texas Agricultural Exper­iment Station Conference. Talks and discussions, will continue through today noon and are cen­tered on the theme “Opportuni­ties for Progress in Texas Agri­culture.

“So before we eliminate these things, we must consider what the consequences will be,” Clark said.

BUT THIS DOES not mean weather modification research should be lessened or ignored, the meteorologist added. Current studies indicate favorable results can be obtained and that precipi­tation increases of 10 to 12 per­cent are possible by seeding cer­tain cloud formations.

said rice is the world’s most im­portant and widely used food.

He said research and extension has boosted Texas rice production from an average of 1,000 pounds per acre in the early days to a current figure of about 4,700 pounds.

Since double cropping has been developed, Texas rice farming in­come has risen an estimated $20 million, the speaker said. That $20 million figure is more than four times the amount spent on the Rice-Pasture Station since it was founded in 1909.

Another speaker. Dr. J. P. Craigmiles, superintendent of the Rice-Pasture Research and Ex­tension Center near Beaumont,

“If anyone doubts the value of quality research and effective ex­tension, here is a dynamic exam­ple of the kind of dividends that are paid,” Craigmiles said.

The speaker said managed weather, if it is ever realized, would suit certain crops in some cases but might wreak havoc on others. A long dry spell suitable for cotton harvesting would hurt pastures.

IT WOULD make sense to dis­sipate a hurricane headed for the Texas Gulf Coast to protect crops and property, Clark said. But to do so would deprive farmers and ranchers and watersheds of val­uable moisture in the interior re­gions.

He pointed out that 1962’s Car­la, as damaging as it was to the coast country, brought highly beneficial rains that extended to the Canadian border. Protection

Foreign Students Sponsor Movie

A movie and slides, “Hunger and Population Explosion,” will be shown tomorrow by the Inter­national Student’s Club.

The FAO United Nations-pre- pared program is at 7:30 p.m. in the Memorial Student Center Ballroom, club president Abdnl Quraishi said.

A short talk and running com­mentary will be given by Carl M. Cater, biochemistry and bio­physics prqfessor. Hunger and the pppplatipn explosion are con­sidered the two greatest problems facing mankind, Quraishi said.

The 50-member club will then elect officers. The International Student’s Club started in the lat­ter 1920s and was known first as the Cosmopolitan Club and Unit­ed Nations Club.

“The club is open to anyone interested in membership,” the president said. “It provides a platform for communication be­tween local and international stu­dents and the exchange of cul­tural and philosophical values.”

“Hello. Information? I’d like to find a good place for deer hunting this season . . .”

Requests like this and many other varied subjects cannot be answered by your telephone oper­ator. However, when you dial the combined Bryan-College Station Chamber of Commerce, you may be able to find it.

Pat N. Mann, executive vice- president and sole paid adminis­trator of the Chamber, says:

“A Chamber of Commerce is an information service, among other things. It provides an area with information about business oppor­tunities, community services and public interest items.

“It should be noted,” he ex­plained, “that the key idea of a Chamber of Commerce is volun­tary work. The members pay dues to become a part of the organization and elect the direc­tors. The directors then elect the officers, who in turn make up the executive committee of the cham­ber.

“In the interim period between board meetings, the executive committee conducts the business of the chamber.

MANN POINTED out that “without the many hours con­tributed by volunteer workers, the Bryan-College Station orga­nization could not function.

“In addition, there is a direct correlation between the efficiency of a Chamber of Commerce and the willingness of voluntary workers to serve in their respec­tive positions.”

Mann said the efforts of the local Chamber are divided into seven areas, each of which has a vice president in charge of the operations.

These are:Organizational Division, Alton

O. Bowen; Agricultural Division, Lloyd Joyce; Civic Division, Har­ry L. Gillam; Commercial Divi­sion, C. R. Hillier, and Tourist and Conventions Division, Gus Ellis.

EACH DIVISION has a com­plete outline of work assigned to them. Mann works with each division head, in addition to be­ing a general administrator to all of them.

“With the exception of myself and two secretaries, all work un­dertaken by the Chamber is done by volunteers. We think that if a project is taken on by the Chamber of Commerce, it should be of such a nature that will benefit the entire community and its overall interests.

“While in some ways we oper­ate much like a corporation, with our charter and Board of Direc­tors, we cannot take our financial statement at year’s end and fig­ure a net loss or profit. We can only see our investments of money and time in the betterment of the community.

“That is the purpose of us, anyway.”

Consol Carnival Slated Tomorrow

The College Station Lions Club and the A&M Consolidated High School Band Boosters will spon­sor a carnival tomorrow on the junior high playground.

Festivities will last from 5:30- 10 p.m., with all proceeds going to a purchasing fund for instru­ments, uniforms and other band equipment.
