A&M University’s Freshman
Drill Team returned Sunday
from its largest competitive
venture—the fourth annual Aero
space and Arizona Days celebra
tion at Davis-Monthan Air Force
Base near Tucson.
The Aggies went winless in
the contest, which pitted them
against 28 more experienced
teams. With a few exceptions,
most of the teams came from
ROTC units at schools in the
western third of the United ^
States.
Top honors went to Howard
University in Washington, D.C.,
Colorado State University and
the University of Colorado.
THE A&M GROUP, the only
outfit made up entirely of fresh
men, gave a good account of
themselves. Capt. Calvin Reese,
assistant to the commandant and
drill team advisor, said the
Aggies drew vigorous applause
from the thousands of persons
attending Arizona Days.
“Our boys looked good out
there,” Captain Reese added.
“We are well pleased with their
performance.”
The contest had three phases
in the class for men’s teams with
arms. They were personal and
arms inspection, basic drill, and
precision or exhibition drill.
The Aerospace and Arizona
Days event was sponsored by the
Davis-Monthan Air Force Base,
Tucson Chamber of Commerce and
the University of Arizona Air
Force ROTC.
STATES REPRESENTED in
the contest were Texas, Oregon,
Utah, California, North Dakota,
Montana, Colorado, New Mexico.
Washington, Wyoming and the
District of Columbia.
Captain Reese said the Fresh
man Drill Team plans to com
pete in a large invitational drill
meet Feb. 22 at Purdue Uni
versity and the Louisiana State
University Southern Invitational
Drill Meet March 21. The Aggies
have won the LSU contest for
the past two years.
The team is commanded by
Richard W. Grossenbacher of
San Antonio, and Marvin Simp
son III of Forth Worth is execu
tive officer.
Transportation to and from
Arizona was provided by a C-119
of the 446th Troop Carrier Wing,
an Air Force Reserve unit at
Ellington AFB, and a C-54 from
Davis-Monthan AFB.
