to students who play and who are
interested in flamenco guitar mu
sic.
, Montoya gave his first full con
cert of flamenco guitar music in
1945. Since then he has traveled
widely in Europe, the Far East,
South America, Canada and the
U.S. At the present he is giving
concerts at colleges and universi

Topic For Speech
“Spacecraft Guidance and Con
trol” is the announced topic for
a graduate lecture scheduled at
8 p.m. Friday in the Biological
Sciences Lecture Room.
John Scull, chief of the guidance
and control analysis and integra
tion section, jet propulsion labora
tory, California Institute of Tech
nology, will be the lecturer. The
public is invited to attend, Grad
uate School Dean Wayne C. Hall
said in announcing the lecture.
Scull is one of a series of lec
turers invited to A&M by the Aero
Geo Astro Corporation to lecture
to the spacecraft technology class
on the important problems of
space technology.
He will discuss the guidance of
satellites and lunar and planetary
spacecraft, and the lecture will in
clude a summary of the art for
Unmanned lunar and planetary
spacecraft.
Scull received a Bachelor of Sci
ence degree from the California
Institute of Technology in 1947.
He has been an employee of the
Jet Propulsion Laboratory since

a noted musician. Several years
later, he took lessons from an ex
perienced teacher in Madrid.
At the age of 14, Montoya was
playing in “cafes cantantes,” for
such well-known artists as An
tonio de Bilbao, Juan el Estampio,
La Macarrona and La Camisona.
Montoya’s real chance came,
however, when he was chosen by
Antonia Merce to accompany her
as a guitarist on a three-year tour
of Europe.
From that time until 1945 Mon
toya accompanied other famous
artists of the time—La Argentin-

Citizen Soldiers
May Be Released
In Late August
WASHINGTON (^)—The Penta
gon reportedly is planning Aug. 25
as the date to start releasing more
than 155,000 Reservists and Na
tional Guardsmen called into uni
form last fall at the height Of the
Berlin crisis.
Informed sources said Tuesday
night the aim would be to have
all or virtually all the Reservists
and Guardsmen back home by
about Sept. 25.
This would be just short of the
one-year limit Congress author
ized for their active service tour.
Release much earlier than this
is considered unlikely, largely be
cause of the continuing Commun
is threats in Berlin and South
Viet Nam.
Earlier Tuesday, Gen. George
H. Decker, Army chief of staff,
made public a stern letter to his
top commanders in the United
States, saying this country is “in
a very real sense at war” and that
“prompt and effective steps” must
be taken to make Reservists un
derstand why they must remain
on active duty now.
Decker’s letter was prompted by
a new rash of “we want out”
activity among some Army Reser-
vits at Ft. Bragg, N.C., and at
tached to the 49th Armored Divi
sion, a Texas National Guard unit
based at Ft. Polk, La.
President Kennedy hinted at an
August release target date at his
news conference Feb. 15.
