Bozardt Named Page 4 College Station, Texas Thursday, August 29, 1968 THE BATTALION n Corps Advisor John M. Bozardt of Houston has been appointed a civilan corps advisor in the comman dant’s office at Texas A&M Uni versity. Vet Student Had “Shade-Tree” Practice P The 1961 A&M graduate will work with Malon Southerland of Houston in cadet corps advisory affairs, announced Col. Jim H. McCoy, commandant. An Army reserve captain, Bo zardt served three years and commanded the 196th Ordnance Detachment in Worms, Germany. A Texas A&M veterinary medi cine major who vaccinated live stock amid ancient lean ruins and worked among head shrinkers says Peace Corps volunteers get an education that can’t be bought. Joseph W. Burkett III of Kerr- ville, admitted to A&M’s veteri nary medicine school in spring, spent 22 months in Ecuador as a corps volunteer. “It was a shade tree practice to vet medicine,” he smiled. The 24-year-old student fought foot and mouth disease in south ern Ecuador during most of his tour. He worked with Indian na tives and landowners through the Ministry of Agriculture at Cuen- tipped sierras of Andes-split Ecu ador. Mr. and Mrs. John Wyss of Denton, also in vet medicine at A&M, were in Ecuador at the same time. Burkett and other volunteers ranged the South American coun try from steaming coastal and interior jungles to the snow- “If you think we’ve got humid ity problems here, take off your boots in an Ecuador jungle,” the former circuit rodeo cowboy com mented. “Next morning, moss is growing in them.” Burkett said Peace Corps vol unteers gain perception in their work. “I learned to become more aware of what is going on around me,” he added. “The work also makes volunteers realize how lucky we are to live in the U. S.” “Ecuador is potentially weal thy, mainly in minerals,” the stu dent observed. “Actually, it’s very poor.” The lawyer’s son, whose parents reside at 504 West Main, Kerr- ville, said U. S. foreign aid prob lems are brought into focus. “Knowledge is hard to beat,” the 1962 Kerrville T i v y High graduate remarked. “Money and supplies are not good enough by themselves. The natives must be taught how to use them.” Burkett said he had a “million jobs in two years” after attend ing Schreiner Institute and Trin ity. “I shod hor-ses and followed the Rodeo Cowboys Association circuit.” Then he joined the Peace Corps and acquired 30 hours vet medi cine schooling at Montana State, through corps training. Arriving in Ecuador in Septem ber, 1964, he spent four months in a livestock betterment pro gram in the northern corner of the country. ■4 !
