Main 822-6000 A &M Ju n ior Hopes To Realize Dream The Texas Aggie Band would welcome other members of the Herman Focke family of Mexia. John H. Focke III will be an Aggie Band senior next fall and accompanied the large military organization to the Cotton Bowl. His father, a Mexia insurance agent and U. S. Army VIII Corps Reserve Headquarters command er, marched in the New Year’s Day football extravaganza in 1941. Both played, the piccolo. His mother is also a musician and teaches music in Mexia schools. Johnny, as he’s known to friends, has yet to step off with the Aggie Band. THE JUNIOR CHEMISTRY and pre-medical major was se verely paralyzed by a childhood disease and is working on regain ing full use of his legs. Focke’s efforts will reach a peak this summer. In less than a month he will wear senior boots the first time and he’s planning to win a marching slot on the outside file for the 1969 season, his last with the renowned band directed by Lt. Col. E. V. Adams. “It depends on therapy this summer,” remarked the Distin guished Student who wants to enter medicine and study the dis ease that paralyzed him from the shoulders down. His efforts—in the classroom, band practice room and at build ing his strength—are faultless. Realizing walking would aid his 3 Women Give Horse To A&M Texas A&M officials didn’t have to look their gift horse in the mouth Monday to know they had a good deal. The animal, a thoroughbred race horse named Jedgar Ruler, was recently appraised at $100,- 000 and has an insurance policy for the same amount. Jedgar Ruler, a 14-year-old named in honor of FBI Chief J. Edgar Hoover, also has some powerful ancestors and relatives, including its sire, Nasrullah, and half-brothers, Nashua and Bold Ruler, all great stakes winners. The bay horse, which had a good record as a three-year-old and whose offspring have won approximately $250,000 to date, was donated to Texas A&M by Mrs. Wofford Cain and Mrs. Clint W. Murchison Sr. of Dallas and Mrs. B. G. Byars of Tyler. The three women formerly operated the Murcain and Byars Stables in California. Mrs. Cain and her husband, 1913 graduate of Texas A&M and a member of its board of direc tors, have long been among the institution’s most generous don ors, having provided financial support for several major uni versity projects and more than 100 scholarships. The Murchison and Byars families also have pro vided A&M scholarships for many years. A&M officials emphasized the university is not entering the racing business, but rather will use Jedgar Ruler in its breeding program for teaching and nutri tional research. comeback, the all-regional piccolo player took up golf in 1960. He shoots to a 12 to 14 handi cap with consistent low-80s scores in a game that requires firmness and control. “Johnny can really wear that golf ball out,” noted. Adams. FOCKE, WHO WILL MAKE medical school application this summer, also works 15 minutes daily on an exercise program set up by Dr. C. E. Williford of Mex ia. The Exer-genie program is similar to that used by the SWC champion Aggies and numerous professional teams. This year’s Maroon Band schol astic sergeant, Focke has a 2.08 grade point ratio which should get him into med school. A&M’s pre-medicine curriculum is a three - year program, but Focke is going a four-year route for a chemistry degree that also fulfills pre-medicine requirements. “If I get into med school and discover I don’t want to be a doctor, I’ll have a degree,” the 21-year-old Aggie explained. “MY MAIN INTEREST is this disease that crippled 1 me,” he went on. “I was in the hospital 57 days and saw so many people suffering with the same thing. I’d just like to see if there’s something I can help do about it.” Focke plans to commute from Mexia to Waco for summer school this year, “to help lighten the load somewhat for next year. It won’t hurt me when I get into med school either.” One of three pre-medicine ma jors in the band, Focke serves as a special assistant to the di rector. He played for the recent taping for a stereo album of Aggie band music. While indoor practice is under way, he is armed with a stop watch to check cadence, which in corps march-ins and reviews must remain close to 120 beats per minute. 800 Students Seeking 80 Scholarships Texas A&M’s Faculty Scholar ship Committee is becoming more selective in choosing award win ners. The reason is simple, explains Dr. Wayne C. Hall, academic vice president and Faculty Scholar ship Committee chairman. Appli cants are becoming more astute and numerous. A record 800 high school seniors filed applications this spring for Opportunity Award Scholarships. Of that number, 80 were selected. “Members of the Faculty Schol arship Committee are greatly im pressed,” Dr. Hall commented, with the outstanding scholastic achievements of high school stu dents applying for scholarships and admission to the university this year.” Robert M. Logan, Student Fi nancial Aid director and secretary of the Faculty Scholarship Com mittee, said cut-off scores on the scholastic aptitude test were 291 points higher than last year. In 1967, the committee consid ered seniors who scored a mini mum 983 on the SAT test, per haps better known as the college entrance exam. The score soared to 1,274 this spring. Logan said a Corpus Christi youngster scored 1,579—just 21 points away from a perfect 1,600. Necessity for financial assis tance also is considered in choos ing Opportunity Award Scholar ship recipients, Logan pointed out. Opportunity Award Scholar ships range from $250 to $800 per year. The committee has announced 134 high school seniors as winners of Educational Opportunity Grants. Financial need, Logan noted, plays a more important part in the committee’s final de cision although scholastic achieve ment is considered. Logan said the SAT cut-off score for Educational Opportunity Grants was 985, an increase of 125 points over last year. Board Of Directors Accept Loans, Grants Of $889,180 Texas A&M’s Board of Direc tors Saturday accepted $889,180 in gifts, grants, loans, scholar ships, fellowships and awards to the A&M System.
