alcohol present in their blood.
That means that, theoretically
each of them had consumed
more than three highballs or
more than six beers in h&
final hour. A driver with an
alcohol content of .10 per cent
is considered by most expert*
to be too intoxicated to drive
safely.
Oil Allowable Increased
Railroad Commission boosted
statewide oil allowable from
40.8 per cent to 45.7 per cent
of potential for January. Figure
permits 3,593,405 barrels daily
production compared with the
present 3,317.796 barrels.
Commission extended its
temporary lease allowable sy-
stem inaugurated in June to
help increase production during
the Mid East crisis.
Industrial Dovofopmont
Two new source books on
developing industry have been
published by the Texas Indus-
trial Commission. Titles are
"Texas Community Profiles"
and “Texas Plant Location
Facts."
First book, compiled from
information submitted by local
orgaizations, give industrial
development data for 375 com-
munities in the state. It should
be valuable to firms planning
to locate in Texas.
"Texas Plant Location Facts”
is a series of four booklets giv-
ing information on the indus-
trial climate in Texas, as con-
cerns prospective immigrant
industries.
Water Idea Rejected
Texas Water Development
Board’s staff has rejected the
idea of moving Missouri River
water to West Texas. Proposal
is being pushed in Congress by
U. S. Sen. John Tower and
Cong. Bob Price of Pampa
It conflects with the Board’s
own Texas Water Plah of mov-
ing water from the Mississippi
River to West Texas to supply
future needs. Besides, such a
project would require “slack
water’ operation of the Mis-
souri's navigation system, say
board spokesmen.
Clo or relationship between
junior and senior colleges is
inevlt, bl J .
C. owiKxl senior colleges cam-
puses across the state have
convinced the Coordinating
Board of the Texas College
and University System that
educational emphasis cannot be
laid solely on the larger schools
in the future.
Answer seems to be a junior
college program that offers
two-year courses of study which
then can be transferred to the
four-year colleges for degree
credit.
Dr. Jack Williams, commis-
sioner of higher education, has
submitted to the board a plan
to establish guidelines for fu-
ture relationship between toe
two fields of education. It also
sets up 52 geographic regions
in Texas for junior college
development, 18 of which have
no junior college.
Idea behind the regional ap-
proach is to prevent creation
of any junior college in an area
which cannot support it and to
encourage the development of
junior colleges in areas needing
than.
None of the existing public
junior colleges would be dis-
lodged by the plan. But each
of the 52 regions would have
at least one junior college in
it. Envisioned is'a junior col-
lege system of 70 to 75 cam-
puses.
In briefing junior college pre-
sidents on the proposal. Com
missioner Williams cited the j
importance of community two- i
year colleges in the overall
higher education picture. Ac-
cording to Wi'tiams, 727,0001
Texas students will be attend-1
ing colleges and universities in
this state by 1965. And junior
colleges must be able to take
care of 305,525 of them.
New schools would be recan-
mended only where enrollment I
af at least 500 students could I
be expected by the end of the I
third Fall term and 1,000 by|
the fifth term.
