Three File
For Council
Election April 7
Three men have filed for
College Station City Council
positions. The election will be
April 7.
They are J. A. Orr, 400 W.
Dexter, Ward One; G. W. Black,
205 Walton, Ward Two; and Er
nest Seeger, 305 Patricia, Ward
Three.
Orr and Black have served on
the council before.
Deadline for filing is Saturday,
March 7, a month before the elec
tion.
Out-going councilmen are W. H.
Badgett, Ward One; Joe H. Sor
rells, Ward Two; and W. D. Fitch,
who moved from Ward Three.
These men are eligible for re-elec
tion to the council but have not
filed.
Remaining on the council are
Marion Pugh, Ward One; Harry
Boyer, Ward Two; and A. B. Boy-
ett, Ward Three. Their terms will
end next year along with' Mayor
Exnest Langford’s.
Candidates for the council must
be qualified Texas voters and resi
dents of College Station for two
years. They also must not owe any
back taxes.
There will be no referendum is
sues in the April 7 election, said
Ran Boswell, city manager.
AF Survey
(Continued from page 1)
many of the forms filled out by
those not desiring flight training
was the fact that the Air Force
was over-emphasizing the pilot
program.
One senior said, “If a person
doesn’t want to fly, no amount of
persuasion will make him want to
fly.”
Time Should Be Equal
Many felt that the time requir
ed for active duty should be the
same. Either equalize it at four
years or make both flying and
non-flying enlistments three years,
was one suggestion.
A senior who intends to go to
flight school feels the AFROTC
should give more preliminary
training in “everything from Link
Trainers to jets. “Another flight
senior thinks the program would
be “swamped” with applicants if
both enlistments were made the
same.

Over 1,100 Cadets
Take ROTC Tests
More than 1,100 cadets took part
in the ROTC surveys and tests. In
cluded in this figure are 750 sen
iors and 400 underclassmen.
“There were no totals or re
sults tabulated here,” said Col.
Taylor Wilkins, assistant com
mandant, “The tests for the Air
and Ground Force will be sent to
Lackland Air Force Base in San
Antonio.”
Orders for the testing came
from the Departments of the Air
Force and Army. Six schools are
taking these tests which may serve
as the basis for a revised ROTC
program.
The tests will be completed
when the make-up physical tests
are completed. Only seniors are
taking these. The other three
classes took written tests or sur
veys.
Results of the physical testing
covered a wide margin. The num
bers of push-ups ranged from 0 to
22. Darrow Hooper took tops in
basket ball throwing. He threw
one nearly 155 feet.
