scientists witn Nortn Caro
lina State University and the

griculture have developed a va
riety of cotton which could help
the South stay competitive in
cotton production.
The variety, TH 149, pro
duces the high quality liber
sought by textile manufactur
ers.
Development of TH 149 was
announced by Dr. R. L. Lov
vorn, director of agricultural
research at NCSU, and Dr.
Hugh O. Graumann, acting di
rector of the Crops Research
Division of USD A. ,
ur. Loworn said that seeds
of TH 149 were now being In
creased. Seeds for farmer
plantings should be available
in 1969.
Participating in the deve
lopment of TH 149 were Drs.
P. A. Miller and J. A. Lee of
the Department of Crop Science
at NCSU, and Dr. Thomas Kerr,

-- Sergeant Norwood J. Vann.
son at Mrs. Samuel M. White
of Magnolia. N. C? is a mem
ber of an organization which has
earned the U. S. Air Force
Outstanding Unit Award.
Sergeant Vann, a fabric
leather-rubber repair special
ist In the 437th Military Air
lift Wing at Charleston AFB,
S.C., will wear a distinctive
service to mark his affiliation
with the unit.
The unit was cited for a
Chleving an exceptionally meri
torious rating for distinguished
service during a one-year
period.
This is the second time the
437th has been so honored.
Factors which led to the
unit being named for the award
include development of a high
ly responsible airlift or
ganization which maintained vi
tal airlift routes essential to
the United States' overseas
a former NCSU f acuity member
who is now with the USD A at
Beltsville, Md.
TH 149 produces acceptable
yields, large bolls and large
seed. It is well adapted for
spindle-type machine harvest
ing. It also has good storm
resistance and moderate resis
tance to fusarium wilt.
The main advantage of TH
149 however, is its "'excellent
fiber properties." It ranks
high in both fiber length and
fiber strength, two qualities
needed by modern textile man
ufacturing.
"I think cottons like TH
149 are a must if we are to
keep Southeastern cotton com
petitive with California cotton
and with synthetic fibers," said
Dr. Miller.
The "TH" in the name of
the new variety comes from the
words "Triple-Hybrid." Part
of the breeding work which led
to the development of TH 149
goes back to 1940. Cottons
from Asia, Mexico, and North
Carolina are found in its an
cestors.
