\&M Grad Leads Air Commandos John Teague, Congressman’s Son, Is Member Of Special Force i A young Air Force officer who tended A&M is on the path to a tinguished military career—fol- wing the indelible World War II otprints of his famous father. First Lieutenant John O. Teague, College Station, Tex., is a leader one of the U. S. Air Force’s os t elite groups—Tactical Air ommand’s unique Air Commando >mbat control team. Its members, 1 handpicked volunteers, are nong the most highly trained and ersatile airmen in the world. Lieutenant Teague’s father, Con- ressman Olin E. Teague, was warded the Silver Star, Bronze tar and Purple Heart—three me s each—while earning his Lionel’s eagles commanding com at infantry units in World War II. uthor and sponsor of the Korean far Veterans Bill, the distin- uished U. S. House of Representa- ves member from Texas was sub- quently elevated to the chairman- iip of the Veterans’ Affairs Com- littee, which he has now headed >r more than half a decade. Congressman Teague and Air ommando Teague are both alumni ' Texas A&M, where father and jn earned their service commis- ons through the ROTC program, asses of 1932 and 1959, respec- vely. However, many of the ghly specialized skills the lieu- mant must have for his present ob have been acquired since he ■ceived his A&M sheepskin. The commandos are always >ady in any degree of strength id special skill needed to fly any- here their unique talents in )ecial air warfare may be required —as advisers, trainers or combat ants if the need should arise. Lieutenant Teague and his Air Commando combat controller team mates are trained for a role in special air warfare. Their combat job is to parachute near or into enemy areas minutes to hours be fore paradrops and assault airlift landings of troops, equipment and supplies. On the ground they secretly set up portable communications and other guidance equipment brought with them and accurately direct Air Commando asault airlift air craft into the airdrop and assault landing zones. When required, they can also direct airstrikes. Team members must develop unusual proficiency in making pin point paradrop landings into ex tremely small areas — such as jungle clearings. Every Air Com mando combat controller must be a qualified control tower operator and radio repair technician. All team members must be in prime physical condition; expert in survival measures in any climate, any type of terrain or in the water, anywhere in the world; highly trained in escape and evasion tech niques and exceptionally proficient in the use of maps and compass. Even though successful mission accomplishment in their combat operations dictates that they avoid contact with the enemy, every Air Commando combat controller must be a merciless individual fighting man, expert in lethal use of his rifle, pistol, knife and his hands and feet when close ground combat is forced upon him.

In showing this latter device, Emanuel Mittleman of Brooklyn, N. Y., said it could be activated by direct dialing of a number from a distance — even from as far away as Hawaii. Earlier, Harold K. Lipset, a San Francisco private detective demon strated a variety of other devices used for surreptitiously picking up and transmitting conversations. One was a martini glass in which he placed an olive that was a radio transmitting unit. Stuck in the olive was a tooth pick that served as the aerial. Linset said the device works “when It is covered with the liquid in the glass.” C of C Drive Going Well Early responses from cards mailed to A&M staff and faculty members urging them to invest in the Bryan-College Station Cham ber of Commerce during 1965 has been encouraging, Clark Munroe, director of the A&M Personnel Office and campus drive chairman, said late Thursday.

Th ’here are four sound reasons why every person should attend services regularly and support the Church. They are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For his chil dren’s sake. (3) For the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the sake of the Church itself, which needs his moral and material support. Plan to go to church regularly and read your Bible daily. No, not a single thing! Mom always shops carefully for her family. She watches their health. She makes sure they have a clean, comfortable home. She sees that they get prac tically anything they want. What more can she do? Well, how about their spiritual well-being? A family needs a religious framework in which to develop moral re sponsibility and steadfast faith. If Mom and Dad set a fine example of Christian love and regular church attendance, the family cannot help but be influenced. Today’s young peo ple, strengthened and inspired by Church teachings, are the leaders that our country will need tomorrow. Remember, Mom . . . “Man’s life consists not in the abund ance of things which he possesses.” Don’t deprive your family or yourself of the many precious values the Church can give.
