Reduction in Rank
(Continued from Page 1)
The excuse did not cover the
drill period.
Soon after leaving Fort, the
Army officer went to the Military
Science building and searched the
rosters of both H Company, the
freshman chemical corps unit, and
A company, the upperclassmen
unit, trying to find a cadet first
lieutenant with the name he had
been given.
The officer could find none and
thereupon supposed the name he
received was false.
He then notified the senior
Chemical Corps instructor that he
would like to observe a class and
see if he could spot the cadet under
suspicion.
While entering Friday morning
the building where Chemical Corps
military science classes are held,
the Army officer saw Fort, the ca
det in question, approaching.
He stopped Fort and asked him
why he was late to class. Fort
said he could not find the military
in his room and had been to the
hospital to get a new one.
Thereupon the officer asked to
see Fort’s identification card.
The name Fort had given the of
ficer did not agree with the one
on the ID cai’d.
When the officer asked Fort
why he had lied, Fort said, I just
panicked.”
When asked by a Battalion re
porter why he had lied, Fort said,
“When the officer stopped me
Thursday afternoon, I just said the

first thing that came to my mind.”
“I was pretty excited and I just
lost my head,” he said.
Fort has had a good record at
A&M, Myers said.
He has had no more military de
ficiencies than the average cadet.
He had a better than average sum
mer camp record and has not pre
viously been in any major diffi
culty with the military, Myers
said.
Sepulveda told investigating of
ficers that he tried tp get Fprt not
to skip drill, but th^t Fort asked
him to not report him absent.
Sepulveda’s record ie also with
out a major flaw, said Myers.
A new commander and executive
officer for A Chemical Corps have
not yet been selected, said Col.
Myers, but the tactical officer for
the company has be en asked to
submit recommendations.
It is not a crime or a breach of
regulations to cut drill, Myers said.
Fort was reduced because he lied
and Sepulveda was reduced for
submitting a false report.
It is, he emphasized, the com
pany commander’s responsibility to
report all absentees, including
those men who are excused from
drill.
Unless an advanced student has
too many cuts in drill, the only
punishment he receives is a $1.80
reduction in pay for every absence.
Otherwise, said Col. Myers, cut
ting drill is just like cutting any
other class.

Calls
No matter when you need to make a telephone
call, at any time of the day or night, you expect
your telephone to work. And the chances are,
you’ll find it hard to remember when it didn't
give you the service you expected!
What is the magic that has so much to
do with your telephone’s dependability? Tele
phone people call it “preventive mainte
nance.” Actually, it’s finding and eliminating
troubles before they happen.
Of course, occasionally it may be neces
sary to report trouble on your line. When you
do, you’ll find the repairman courteous, effi
cient and neat in his work. And you’ll also
find him tremendously interested in keeping
your telephone the dependable servant it is.
