Southwestern
Homecoming
February 5 - 6
A week-end of activities is in
tore for Southwestern Univer-
sity ex-students when they re-
turn to the campus for an “old
fashioned get-together” Febru-
iry 5-6. On Charter Day, Feb.
5, Southwestern, Texas’ oldest
university, will celebrate its
115th birthday.
The theme for homecoming is
“Yesterday, Today and Tomor-
row.” .T. Frank Dobie, well-
known author and ex-student,
speaks on “Southwestern, the
Past;” John D. Wheeler of San
Antonio, member of the Board
of Trustee's and Executive Com-
mittee of the university, speaks
on “Southwestern, the* Present;”
and Dr. William C. Finch, presi-
dent, “Southwestern, the Fu-
ture.”
An added attraction on the
program will he the singing by
the massed choirs compost'd of
all former members of the A’-
Capella Choirs since they were
first started on the campus.
Professor John D. Richards,
founder of the choir, will direct.
It is a common practice for
ft talers of hogs to pick up at
feet! stores, weevily laying
mash, broiler mash, chick start-
er, and other poultry rations, to
feed to hogs. Many feed manu-
facturers include, especially in
chick starters, a chemical known
as NITROPHKNIDK, for pre-
V'ntion of outbreaks of cocco-
da>sis. Tht> level that is found
;n mbs! of these rations is usu-j
ally 1.2',. This level has been I
ro!iiul to be TOXIC to MAM-
MALS. ESPECIALLY HOGS
AND DOGS.
Numerous cast's of heavy
,o. si s by hog feeders have been
reported throughout the state,
where the feeder had fed weevil
lamagetl chick starters or ware-
tousc sweepings.
When feeds containing Nitro-
iherude were fed swine, the an-
imals slowed scours and stiff-
ness. Death resulted on the
third and subsequent days. Con-
sidering, the low level that this
chemical is found in chick start-
rs and other poultry feeds, one
mist conclude that the product
is highly toxic to hogs. If the
chemical is contained in a ra-
tion, the feed tag will have this
istcd a : part of the ingredients.
