Water Problem
Being Studied
At Texas A&M
(Special to The F inis News!
Progress in the effo-ts of Tex-
ans to solve their water prob-
lem s was reported Monday
morning at the opening session
of the 40th Short School of the
Texas Water and Sewage Works
Associat ion
More than 800 persons from
throughout the state are expect-
ed to attend the various sessions
of the short school that will be
conducted through Friday at
Texas A&M College.
One of the principal speakers
at the Opening session was Mar-
vin t Nichols. Fort Worth, who
is chairman of the Texas Board
of Water Development. The sub-
ject of his address was Texas
Moves To Solve Its Water Prob-
lem' "
Nicholas stated that there has
been much progress in the de-
velopment of additional surface
water supplies since World War-
11 with numerous cities joining
together to form water districts
and provide reservoirs.
"As Texas grows, the water
problem grows more complex,
but forward steps are being tak-
en." Nichols said.
He cited one of the steps tak-
en by the people of Texas t o
solve their water problem was
to approve a $200,000,000 bond
issue on November 5. 1957. for
water projects.
In 1954, the* legislature in-
creased the appropriation of the
state board of water engineers
from $250,000 to $450,000 so
that that organization could ex-
pand its phase of the work to-
ward solving the problem." he
said
Kdward Geeslin of Bradv.
president of the Texas Water &
Sewage Works Association, pre-
sided at the opening session.
The welcome address was given
by Fred .1 Benson, dean of engi-
neering A&.M College

Johnson Outboard
Motors Announce
New Dealership
Ennis Boat and Motor Com-
pany has been awarded a dealer
franchise by Johnson Motors of
Waukegan. Illinois, the nation's
largest outboard manufacturing
company.
Among the products to be
handled by the Ennis company
is the new Sea-Horse V'-50. the
world s first V-type outboard
motor The revolutionary cn
gine develops 50 horsepower
with 70.7 cubic inches piston
displacement.
A V-engine outboard motor
has been a goal of Johnson en-
gineers every since the ’‘V” j
proved so successful in the auto- !
motive industry. Ralph Rumbo
and E. B Woody pointed out
"A ”V” design means a more
compact engine for greater sta-
bility. and a shorter crankshaft ■
that can be made stronger and
more rigid.” they stated.
Rumbo and Woody explained
some of the important new fea-
tures on the V-50. The cooling
system has a thermostat controll
so that the temperature in the
cooling system remains con-
trolled despite outside water j
temperature. Another inovation
is a single carburetor for easier
adjustments.
Johnson also produces three
models in two cylinder, 35 horse-
power sizes and two models of
18 horsepower sizes, one elec-
tric and one manual starting.
Rounding out the Sea-Horse line
of 11 models is a 10. 7'., 51/2
and a three horsepower size. i
Rumbo and Woody stated that
there is a model for nearly
every size and style of outboard
boat.
