4608th Logistical Division To
Receive Checks for Training
Members of the 4608th Log
istical Training Division, a
local Reserve Unit, are going
to receive pay checks for
training they performed dur
ing the first three months of
the year, according to Cap
tain A. W. Stockwell, local
Reserve Component Comman
der.
These checks along with those
for the first retirement pay ever
to be received by an Organized.
Reservist have recently been de
livered to Texas Reserve Officers
and are to be distributed within
the next few days.
Payment in these two catagories
mark a progressive milestone in
the nation's largest component of
the armed forces, said stockwell
Before World War II the Organ
ized Reserves were a mere token
force composed mostly of.officers
without troops. Provisions for
training were meager and anti-
qimted, and there was no incen
tive to make the Reserves a sue-
cess. •
The war changed things In the
Reserves, and now they have been
given a semi-professional' status.
Better training facilities have been
provided, and a retirement pay
program has been instituted. Those
\yho are active in the Reserves for
20 years will start receiving re
tirement pay at the age of 00.
The local Reserve Unit is com
manded by Col. Frank S. Vaden,
and at the present its quota of
72 officers, is filled. Pay has been
authorized for one'' drill period a
month, although the Unit meets
semi-monthly for training.
Lack of facilities are still ham
pering many of the units through
the state, and some of them are
having to meet in the local court
house or in armories located far
from their hometown.
Despite these and many other
obstacles the Reserve program is
expected to accelerate as the kinks
arfe ironed out. The retirement pay
program is expected to be a big
factor in coming plahs of the
Reserves, said Captain Stockell.
The reservist becomes eligible,
for Retirement after having met
certain training requirements and
after having reached the age of CO.
This plan is almost as complicat
ed as ,it‘ sounds, said Stockell, as
thp pay is based on a point for
mula which pays the reservist
2V4% of the base pay in the high
est grade for every year of active
service.

W. R. Cowloy huh been
made superintendent of the
Lower Rio Grande Valley Ex

Director R. D. Lewis of the
Texas Agricultural Experi

In announcing the appointment,
Director Lewis) said: “Under Mr.
Cowley’s quiet,’ modest but effec
tive leadership^ the program and
services of the Lower Rio Grande
Vailey Station have moved steadi
ly and constructively forward.
While at first reluctant to under
take the superintendency, he so
demonstrated to his coworkers,
to the, people in the Valley and to
us, abilities to lead an expanded
research program for the future
agrjculture of the Valley, that we
have'persuaded him to accept, the
job.”,
Born and reared in Wise county,
Cowley attended North Texas State
College at Denton and North Texas
Agricultural College at Arlington
before entering A&M in 1937.
Following his graduation here
in 1939, Cowley became an in

tion ns soil chemist in-4947, and
in 1948, he wiw asked to assume
temporarily the duties of superin
tendent of the Weslaco station.

Job Interviews
Slow-up Here
Summer graduates are not
going to get the benefit of
job interviewers as has been
the case be/fore. At present
there are no interviewers on
the campus and not more than,
six are expected to appear be
fore the summer is over, said
W. R. Horsley of the place
ment office.
This is a decidedly different sit
uation than that which existed on
the campus during the lust few
days of the Spring semester when
there were five or six interviewers
on hand every day. > ■ i
The lark of Interest on the part
of thp employers is nothing to be
alarmed about however, said Hors
ley, as there are two important
reasons why this condition exists.
First of all the country is in
the midst of a seasonal slump which
began around May 16. This is an
annual occurence,- and hirings us
ually starts up again as sooh as
the employers are certain that
there is nothing permanent in the
lack of business.
Secondly the price situation in
general has big business worried,
and until there is a stabilizing of
prices the job situation is going
to remain fairly critical, Horsley

added.
