Berths Still Open For Cruise
On ‘Summer School At Sea’
THE BATTALION
Wednesday, April 9, 1969
College Station, Texas

Although applications have al
ready exceeded accommodations,
students still have a chance to
climb aboard the “Summer School
at Sea” program, a 10-week Medi
terranean cruise that combines
college credit with high sea ad
venture.
Adm. James D. Craik, super
intendent of the Texas Maritime
Academy, said students may still
apply for one of 90 berths aboard
the
her
-ler,

the “Texas Clipper” despite the
140 applications already received.
“Summer School at Sea,” joint
ly sponsored by the College of
Liberal Arts and TMA, offers
spring high school graduates and
college freshmen opportunity to
earn six hours of college credit
during the June 5-Aug. 10 jaunt.
Sailing aboard A&M’s 15,000-
ton oceanliner-classroom, students
will depart from Galveston and
call on Las Palmas, Canary Is
lands; Barcelona, Spain; Piraievs,
Greece; Naples, Italy, and Fun
chal, Madeira. To complete the
13,700-mile voyage, the “Clipper”
also will make one U. S. stop en-
route and return via New Orleans.
Craik said TMA has arranged
several top but economical tours
in the foreign countries, particu
larly Greece.
Qualified male students may
enroll for two courses in fresh
man English, history or mathe
matics, the admiral noted. Credit
may be applied to a standard
degree from A&M or another
college or university, or to a
TMA course of study leading to
a B.S. degree in marine engi
neering or marine transportation.
Fees and expenses for the five-
year-old program are $550 for
Texas residents and $700 for non
residents. The charges include
tuition, room and board.

Establishment of a $406,000
Jesse L. Easterwood Scholarship
Trust Fund has been jointly an
nounced by A&M President Earl
Rudder and Miss Eva Easterwood
of Dallas.
University officials said the
trust fund is the largest ever
established here for scholarships.
The gift, presented by Miss
Easterwood, was made from the
estate of her brother, the late
Col. W. L. (Bill) Easterwood,
prominent Dallas businessman
and philanthropist. The fund hon
ors their brother, Lt. Jesse L.
Easterwood, class of ’09 and the
second American to qualify as a
Naval Aviation pilot in World
War I.
Easterwood Airport at Texas
A&M is named in his honor.
COLONEL Easterwood, who
contributed to many worthy
causes, devoted much of his time,
money and talent to the develop
ment of air power in memory
of his brother.
The trust fund will be used
to continue and enlarge the Jesse
L. Easterwood Scholarship pro
gram which Miss Easterwood
initiated in 1955. Eleven A&M
students have received financial
assistance under the original pro
gram.
Rudder said the new trust fund
will be a vital part of the Oppor
tunity Award Scholarship Pro
gram, used to help highly quali
fied high school graduates who
need financial assistance to study
here. Approximately 110 Oppor
tunity Award Scholarships will
be presented this year.
After qualifying as a naval
aviator, Lieutenant Easterwood
was detached for duty with Eng-

which he flew a bomber and made

Aggie Awarded
AF Cross For
VN Bomb Raid
The Air Force Cross, second
only to the Medal of Honor, and
Distinguished Flying Cross have
been awarded three Texas A&M
graduates for aerial heroism in
Vietnam.
Capt. Tracy K. Dorsett Jr. of
Coolidge, who commanded Squad
ron 16 here, was recognized with
the Air Force Cross for extra
ordinary heroism as an F-4
Phantom pilot. In poor weather,
he went in for low-level, visual
attack against one of North
Vietnam’s most heavily defended
air fields.
ANTIAIRCRAFT fire severe
ly damaged his Phantom, but
Dorsett made additional passes,
destroyed several parked planes
and finally ejected from his own.
The captain evaded enemy search
parties and was rescued by allied
helicopters. He was with the
8th Tactical Fighter Wing — the
top MIG-killing unit of the Viet
nam war — at Ubon Royal Thai
AFB, Thailand.
Captain Dorsett, who studied
mechanical engineering here, is
now working toward a master’s
degree in aerospace weapons at
the University of Dayton (Ohio)
through the Air Force Institute
of Technology.
DFCs were awarded to Capt.
Joe A. Bowles III of Austin, a
1965 graduate, and 1st Lt. Jerry
A. Jacobs of San Antonio, who
completed A&M studies in 1966.
BOWLES WAS cited for a suc
cessful radar bombing mission in
North Vietnam. Also an F-4
pilot, the captain is currently a
C-141 Starlifter pilot at Charles
ton, AFB, S.C. The management
major and Ross Volunteer was
Second Wing Staff liaison offi
cer.
Lieutenant Jacobs received the
DFC for successfully navigating
an F-4 through opposing ground
fire, missiles and MIGs to com
plete a mission. Now an instruc
tor navigator at Shaw AFB, S.C.,
he studied aerospace engineer
ing here, was a Distinguished
AFROTC Cadet and member of
Squadron 7.
Gvil Defense Responsibility Lies
With Local Leaders, Bodine Says
Civil defense is a mutual agree
ment between local government
and the public, an A&M educator
declared.
Dr. W. R. Bodine, a 1926 A&M
graduate who now heads its civil
defense training program for the
state, pointed out a strong, local
program is contingent upon local
leaders.
“Some leaders are very strong;
some could care less,” said Bo
dine, who serves as Civil Defense
University Extension Program
coordinator for Texas.
Bodine named Brazos County
as an example of what can hap
pen with close-planning and
training.
He praised a December, 1968,
Emergency Operating Simula
tion exercise in Bryan and Col
lege Station.
“It was one of the best ever
held in Texas,” he commented.
Bodine attributed its success
to the participation of local gov
ernment leaders — including
mayors of both cities and judges
— who participated in advance
training as well as the actual
exercise.
“They were there!,” he ex
plained.
Bodine described civil defense
as “local government in action.'
He pointed out, too, the gen
eral philosophy behind civil de
fense is for local government to
prepare itself to continue to oper
ate in any emergency.
He added the major, or county
judge automatically heads civil
defense when elected to office.
“They become civil defense,”
he continued, in compliance with
the Texas Civil Protection Act of
1951.
Acknowledging civil defense is
usually associated with nucleai
attack and what could happen
Bodine added it also applies ti
natural disasters involving tor
nadoes and flooding as in the
cases of Hurricanes Carla and
Beulah.
Lyne Elected VP
Elizabeth Lyne, Gamma Alpha
Chi president, was named GAX
Southwest Student Vice-president
