Be Conducted
Monday Night
Aggies who have an opinion
on Universal Military Train
ing to get off their chests or
who wish to become better in
formed on the subject may at
tend a panel-forum discussion
Monday evening, April 5, at
7:15 in the YMGA by the Ag
gie Discussion and Debate so
ciety, Joe Fuller, discussion
leader, announced today, i \
The panel will consist of one
professor and one student to de
bate each side of the question, while
the forum discussion following the
panel will be open to all who at
tend. !
Coming out iii favor of UMT
will be R. L. Elkins of the bu»i-
ness and accounting department.
Elkins is a lieutenant colonel jin
the Army Reserve and is stationed
at Fort Knox, Kentucky, observing
Umptee training first hand. AljBO
taking the pro stand will be Tom
Halff, senior AHmajor. They are

tive view by saying that they be
lieve UMT ia ejwential for the
maintenance of national security
