By CHARLES KIRKHAM
“The Army’s experiment with a
trial Universal Military Training
program at Forfc Knox, Ky. foj-
lowing the second World War has
revolutionized the Army’s way of
training men,” Lt. Col Joe Davis,
assistant commandant, told the
YMCA Cabinet last evening. “Prin
ciples learned at Ft. Knox will be
used ultimately . throughout the
Army.”
Davis described^Universial Mili
tary Training as: the bill that
Congress didn’t pass.” The bill
was defeated,by the 81st Congress.
Anticipating passage of the bill,
the Army established an experi
mental training unit at Fort Knox
employing principles and techni
ques that would be used generally
should the bill receive Congression
al approval. Many of these prin
ciples were “about faces for the
Army,” Davis said.
The battalion chaplain became
a very busy man. He was the first
man to interview new trainees.
After his interview, he wrote let
ters. to trainees’ parents. Davis
pointed out that our tactical offi
cers at the Annex this year have
interviewed freshmen and have
written letters to their parents.
The chaplain was called in on
all discipline cases. In fact, he
handled the minor ones before the
company commanders, Davis said.
A blanket order covering offi
cers, cadre, and all trainees forbade
and form of swearing, gambling,
and drinking; The PX f * served
tioft drinks. ’“They war* really
corner drugstores," added Davis.
An hour dally was spent with
trainees by the chaplain In lec
tures on cltlsenship. The Army was
trying to make them democratic as
well ns soldiers, Davis told the
group.
Trainees during their first, month
at Ft. Knox were ordered to the
churches of their choice. Then
afterwards, they could attend or
not. Always their officers attend
ed church, setting' examples for
their moo, Davis emphasized.
This atmosphere of citizenship
and clean living made the “days
of the rugged old first sergeants
long past,” Davis said. “Men were
treated as human beings,^ and
New Standards
Set for Club
Future membership of the
Saddle; and Sirloin Club will

ident, said. /"i’T
Sophomores may become asso
ciate-members and participate, in
club activities but will not be al
lowed to. vote in any of the club’s
business matters. U.pon becoming
a i junior, sophomores who have
shown interest and make applica
tion to the club membership com
mittee will be accented as mem
bers, unless rejected by a two-
thirds vo’te of the club. A “C” aver
age will be respired for all in
coming members.
The purpose, of this move is to
stimulate interest in club activities
and serve as a : means of eliihinat-

trained on a sound, wholesome ba
sis.”
Trainees lived in regular Army
barracks. . They ate in mess halls,
family-style. Two meals daily were
preceeded by prayer. Saluting and
other Army discipline was en
forced, but officers were leaders,
hot dictators, the assistant com
mandant added. /
Col. Davis cited an example of
officer leadership by telling of
the commanding general at Fort
Knox. Each d the general’s aide

Steen Elected Head

was a different trainee. This
trainee would eat dinner with the
general iii his home.
The UN T experiment lasted for
30 month) . Since then, principles
used there have been employed in
other Army camps. Camp Hood is
an example where many of the
^lessons the Army learned on
“UMTees’’ are practiced.
In consideration of UMT, the
Army decided that its trainees
develops inentally, physically and
spiritually during training. To
steer the le lines of development
along wholesome paths, the Army
sought to guide Its trainees in an
environment most favorable to a
receptive frame of mind, Davis
said. The trainee’s mental develop
ment was hastened by classes of
high school and junior college level.
Reading and discussion were en
couraged.
Spiritual development was stim
ulated by insisting (on strict per
sonal integrity, keif reliance) self
discipline, and discipline from oth
ers. These combined to give the
trainee iiidividualism as well as a
spirit; of group participation.
Physici l development was en
couraged by a broad intramural
program of sports and vigorous
basic training in the trainees’ com
ponent branch of j the Armv.
Davis Observed
Col. Davis, who spent several
days observing the experiment
while It existed at Ft. Knox, said
with emphasis, “We (the Army)
were not trying to develop war
mongers, but to 1 teach democracy,
and better educate men. They were
also trailed ini case of another
war."
When asked if the

By JOHN WHITMORE
There is one man in the United
States who parlayed a losing*
horse into a money-making af
fair. This man is Winstead Shef
field Glendenning Dixon Weaver,
star comedian with Spike Jones’
“Musical Depreciation Review of
1960,” coming to Guibn Hall this
Thursday.
If you don’t recognize the name
it is because he goes by the handle
of ■ Doodles. .
Doodles was at the race track
at Santa Anita and asi usual, he
had lost quite a load of cash on
the nags. While he was absorbing
the atmosphere he listened to the
drone of the announcers voice, as
the announcer: rolled out the posi
tions of the galloping horses, j
To make the long Story short,
Doodles started .to imitate’.utbe
track announcer and worked oilLta
comedy - act using- this - idea*.site
tried it out on sortie of bis friends
and they liked iL They he tried, it
on Spike. It clicked and came out
as one of Spike’s best selling plat
ters, “William; Tell Overture.”
Comedy comes naturally to
the 33 year-old Californian. His,
father claims he gave the stork
that delivered him s hot foot.
Next to Spike Doodles is in on
more of the funny buiiiiieSs than
any other members] of the troupe.
When he isn’t on Sta re, h« is in
the wings laughing at ihe act or
practicing his jugglirig. One of his
major accomplishment is the back-
bounce on a ball. He hits a rub
ber ball forward with a spin that
causes it to return to him on
the bounce.
Doodles is the son of a well-to-
do California family. His father
gave him all of the educational
advantage possible. At Stanford,
Doodles was known qs the “Mad
Monk.” - ... L

Auto Industry
Will Increase
Car Production
New York (AP)—The auto
industry plans to build more
cars than ever in the next few
months, and says it isn’t wor
ried about finding buyers. But
Home observers wonder if the sup
ply of customers for new: cars
won’t dwindle by next full.
Industry optimists apparently
count on continued prosperity and
relaxed installment c rep it term*
to provide the public with the
wherewithal to Inly.
They add that some 12 million
tars (about 40 per cent- of the
cars now on the road) utq 'h* or
more years old, and that morn than
IVx million of these are going to
the (scrap heap eaeh year. Detroit
feels that even more ,of these
jalopies should—and probably
would, If new ear prices weren’t
so high.
w As the new 1950 models go into
high-gear production, there Is the
hope In Detroit that many ojf the
more prosperous citizens who
bought new cars in 1946 and 1947
will put these into the used car
market and buy the latest autos.
This hope is based on the prewar
practice of the better-heeled of
turning in a car every two or'three
years. There is still, however,! little
indication that this prewar habit
has been resumed generally) and
some dealers fear that car own
ers will lengthen the turn-in; cycle
to four or five years.
Used car dealers, meanwhile,
say their sales have stayed Com
fortingly high for this time of
year, a trend partly explained by
the mild,- open winter most df the
country has had.
About half of the cars jlO or
more years old are owned bjt fam
ilies with cash Incomes of between
$2,000 and $4,000 a year. Tradition
ally, this group is a mainstay of
the used car dealer. These families
sell their 12-yeaf old buggy and
buy one discarded by upper bracket
families after three or four pears.
But this pattern is far from
universal, ana it may have changed
since the war taught people to take
better care of their cars.

nold, dead at 6.'!, once almost quit
the U. S. Army because they
wouldn’t let him ride a horse,
This is one of many odd quirks
in the career of the genial airman
who never fired a gun in anger
himself but commanded the might
iest armada in history—the globe-
ranging U. S. A nn y Air Force In
the second World War.
The only wound he suffered in
two world wars—he saw combat
action in neither—came when be
was struck by some shotgun! pel
lets during a pheasant hunt
Yet the American Air Force of
today stands as a monument to
his jri° neer courage aloft and his
cheerful but diplomatic toughness
in winning a top place for airpower
in Washington^ behind-the-scenes
military struggles.
Two examples of his pioneeriiig:
1. As a young flier Arnold neat
ly zoomed down and plopped a bag
of mail In the front yard of a
postoffice to prove the Army could
deliver airmail. ■. - L j
2. In 1945 he commanded the
-airforce that opened * new tom
of war and peace by dropping two
atom bombs on Japan.
The story of “Hap’a” adult life
parallels the growth of the air
planes as a chief instrument of mil
itary decision.
But whea he was graduated
from West Point tho big lieuten-

ant—he stood six feet, weighed
185 pounds—was so crazy about
horses he threatened to quit the
Army If he was assigned to the
Infantry instead of the eavhlry.
Naturally, the Army assigned
him to—the infantry.
Hap swallowed his
steyod in service. Four
in 1911, he was the
in the Army chosen to study fly
ing at Dayton, O., under ! the
Wright brothers. \-
It is interesting to! conjecture
what would, have happened to Ar
nold—and to American airpower--
If he had won his first heart's de
sire assignment to the cavalry.
For throughout his career Hap
was aligned with; "Billy’’ Mitchell
and the other Army rebels of the
years between the wars who sought
a more important role for airpow
