He enrolled at A& M in September, 1945.1 [ The stpry of how Erich chang- 4 ' “f I ed from an Austrian schoolbo; living under the shadow of Hit ler, into a staunch backer of Texas AI&M began back in 1939: Born of Austrian parents,. Erie was just right years old when H|it ler first marched into Austria i March, 1938 and promptly b< a ruthless policy of persecute Jews.

Hjs father wdnt to Palestihe while E^- ich and his mother fleW to London. Upon arriving in the United States four yea’s later, Erich came to Dallas, where his father began teaching after leaving Palestine; ' ' Erich’s love for A&M is deriy-i ed from what he calls “the mopt ‘Americanizing’ influence I’ye ever seen. A&M is by far the rtbipt democrat|c institution I’ve ever me to become more ‘American’ sooner.’’ Asked what this “Ameri can” influence was at A&M, Erich said; “Living in the cadet corps ; teaches one to get along with peo- j | pic froni all walks of life.^When I I ERICH GOTTLIEB Fled Austria in 1938 - . t ; , i encountered in this democratic country, and to somebody who has n’t had all the benefits of freedom, democracy can be an awfully im portant thing.” “I bless the fate that sent me here because I think it has helped fB Danforth Scholarships to Be f Awarded Thursday by Faculty Two A&M studenta will be selected for the summer Dan- i Scholarships by a special faculty committee Thursday, “The Gulf Coast Region" will be the subjf tonight by Frank C.
