Summer Camp Dates
Announced by Army
Eight summer camps to be at
tended by Army ROTC cadets will
start June 23 and end Aug. 3. said
Col. D. P. Anderson, PMS&T.
“These dates will prevent cadets
from being released early at camp
to attend the second semester of
summer school”, he said.
Deferment from camp will be
considered if it is necessary for a
student to attend summer school
to earn credits necessary to grad
uate at the normal time, or to com
plete prerequisite courses needed
prior to next fall.
“In either case,” Col. Anderson
emphasized, “it is mandatory that
the student obtain a letter from his
dean showing the vital need of en
rollment in summer school.”
Deferments will be considered
for students whose attendance at
camp would create a financial
hardship.
“The Army has no desire to
force a hardship upon ROTC stu
dents,” he explained. “However,
those seeking a deferment on this
basis must submit in writing an
itemized financial statement show
ing how much money is available
for the next school year, how much
the cadet owes, the amount to be
earned over the summer and where
he will work. Deferments for fi
nancial hardship will be granted
only when the student will be fi
nancially unable to return to school
next year because of camp attend
ance,” he added.
Geology students who must at
tend geology camp may also be de
ferred.
Requests for summer camp de
ferment must be submitted to the
cadet’s senior instructor.
Summer camps will be held at
Fort Hood, Tex.; Fort Lee, Va.;
Fort Sill, Okla.; Fort Leonard
Wood, Mo.; Fort Eustis, Va.; Fort
Knox, Ky.; Camp Gordon, Ga. and
Aberdeen Proving Ground, My.

News of the World
By The ASSOCIATED PRESS
PARIS—The United States yesterday gave its full sup
port to France in her search for a ‘“liberal and equitable”
solution of the Algerian rebellion and other North African
problems. Ambassador C. Douglas Dillon announced Wash
ington’s position in a speech to the French Diplomatic Press
Assn. He made clear he was speaking for the entire Eisen
hower administration. French officials who heard Dillon or
read his speech were enthusiastic, almost jubilant, at this ex
pression of support.

Council was expected to meet late this week or early next
week.
