Col. D. L. Baker, Corps Com mandant, announced the new seating arrangement at the Com manders’ Conference this week. Under the new setup seven freshmen will eat with one jun ior, while sophomores and seniors will eat with their classmates. In the past all four classes have been included at each table. Baker said harassment of fresh men in the mess hall, particularly by sophomores, was the primary reason given by 30 to 40 per cent of freshmen who leave the Corps at the end of the first semester. Aggie Record Tops At Summer Camps Texas A&M senior cadets turned in a performance un matched by any other university during summer ROTC training camps. Aggies were named the out standing cadet at both Army and Air Force camps for the second consecutive year. Aggies were chosen the top two cadets and six of the top 10 at Army summer comp at Fort Sill, Okla. Joseph K. Bush, a 1966 grad uate, was the outstanding cadet among the 1,800 attending from the Fourth and Fifth Army areas. Second place cadet was Gary W. Menzies. In addition, Aggies Kenneth W. Krob, William E. Markham, Eloy Garcia and Ter rell Mullins were among the top 10 cadets. Of 10 cadet companies, six Aggies were rated number one and four placed second. Eleven A&M students placed first in their platoons and 15 ranked second. Corps Commandant Col. D. L. Baker said 60 per cent of the 146 Aggies who completed Army camp were designated tentative Distinguished Military Students by the camp commander. Fifteen Air Force cadets were honored, including three com mander’s awards for best in camp and 11 vice commander’s awards for best in flights. Wayne B. Fudge, Student Sen ate president, received the Air Force Times Award for outstand ing leadership and morale traits during training at Mountain Home Air Force Base, Colo. Commander’s awards for the outstanding cadet in camp went to Noble C. Wyninegar Jr., Tom my C. Stone and Patrick K. Gam ble during separate camps at Alt- us AFB, Okla. Vice commander’s awards went to David J. Cruz, William C. Haseloff Jr., Jerry Don Stevens, Arturo Esquivel, Gary W. Foster, Kern D. Kelly, Eugene Riser II, Gerald A. Teel Jr., John P. Tyson, Neal C. Ward and Dennis Hoh- man. Of 86 Air Force Aggies in sum mer training, 61 were rated above average and 26 achieved out standing status. Marine cadet Michael J. Saba tier was named company honor- man at Marine Platoon Leaders Class training camp at Quantico, Va. The Office of the Commandant has announced that 84 Army ca dets have been designated Dis tinguished Military Students and approximately 24 Air Force Ca dets will be named Distinguished Air Students. The cadets will be formally recognized later this fall. “We’ve tried for three years to improve conditions,” he added, “but last semester conditions were worse than the preceding year.” Baker said about 50 less fresh men than last year’s 1,400 are expected to enroll in the Corps this fall. But the percentage of fresh men joining the Corps will drop a sizable 13 per cent, from 78 per cent to 65 per cent. “If we can’t build up a Corps with the draft on everybody’s back we won’t have much luck when things get settled down,” he said. Baker announced that the basic policy regarding passes would re main unchanged from last year, with freshmen and sophomores not to be denied weekend passes because of poor grades or cadet classification. Unit commanders will be au thorized to refuse pass requests for one weekend at a time if they consider the cadet’s conduct for the week justifies disapproval. Junior pole vaulter Harris Wagenseil from Palos Verdes, Calif., will captain Dartmouth’s track teams next season.
