27 Air ROTC Cadets Take
Top Summer Camp Ratings
Highest ratings were taken by
j" Air Force ROTC cadets at
summer camp.
Commandant and vice comman-
lant award recipients are deter
mined on a competitive basic by
Air Force officers at the respec
tive training sites, announced Col.
i, C. Hanna, professor of aero
space studies.
Selection is based on leadership,
military bearing, mastery of
tlassroom subjects and drill com
mand capabilities. The awards are
tonsidered in selecting cadets to
receive regular Air Force com
missions.
Commandant awards, made to
the top cadet at each training
Imse, were awarded Hector Gu
tierrez of Laredo, corps comman
der of 1968-69, and Roy E. Sewall
of San Antonio, a Squadron 10
junior and Air Force financial
issistance grant recipient.
Gutierrez attended summer
training at Hill AFB, Utah. He
rompeted with 250 cadets for the
ward. Sewall, who trained at the
Air Force Academy was in com-
[etition with a similar number.
Vice commandant awards are
made to the most outstanding ca
dets in each 25-man flight.
Recipients include Lawrence P.
Gravis of San Antonio; Charles
A. Parada, Houston; Bryan R.
Thompson, Texas City, and Janies
S. Wilbeck, Hungerford. They
were seniors in the corps last
year.
This year’s seniors receiving
the awards are James A. Fyock,
Alexandria, Va.; John L. Grum
bles, Squadron 7 commander of
Bedford, Mass.; Billy J. Hall Jr.,
Squadron 6 CO, Sherman; Gre
gory L. Hennings, Tampa, Fla.;
Charles E. Holt, Center; John M.
McNabb Jr., Second Group CO,
Sheppard AFB; Frank Montal-
bano III, Squadron 1 CO, Beau
mont; Gerald F. Perryman Jr.,
Squadron 12 CO, Freeport; Rex
E. Stewart, San Antonio, and
Richard E. Taylor Jr., Fourth
Group CO, Santa Fe, N. M.
Financial assistance grant ca
dets who are 1969-70 juniors and
sophomores also were tops in
their flights.
They are Thomas C. Bain Jr.,
Dallas; John M. Conrad, Fort
Worth; Jon E. Imler, Grand
Prairie; Robert H. Matthews, Am
arillo; Barrett J. Smith, Pearland;
Gregg K. Weaver, Midland; Mich
ael L. Wiebe, San Antonio; David
A. Woods III, Fort Worth and
Charles H. Shipman, Hurst.
Colonel Hanna noted the 27
outstanding cadets were among
130 Aggies in 14 different sites
for summer field training.
“These achievements are quite
meaningful when it is realized
that Aggies constituted only four
per cent of those in the training,
yet they walked off with 15 per
cent of all Comandant’s awards
and 22 per cent of the Vice Com-
mandannt’s Awards,” the officer
commented.
He said 83 of the 130 were
rated among the top five cadets
of their respective flights and
78 were similarly rated for drill
and ceremony performance.

CLEANERS
January and May graduates are
urged by Placement Director
Robert Reese to sign up as soon
as possible for the university’s
free placement service.
He said two orientations for
1970 graduates will be at 4 p.m.
Wednesday and Thursday in
Rooms 2 A-B, Memorial Student
Center.
All the free services and inter
view tips will be presented during
the program, Reese noted.
Company recruiters will start
fall interviews Oct. 1 on the cam
pus.
Reese explained the placement
services include compiling a per
sonal file with references and a
copy of the student’s academic
record. All a student has to do is
report to the office and register.
Interview schedules are avail
able and impending recruiting is
announced on academic depart
ment bulletin boards.
“There is usually no limit on
the number of interviews, but we
discourage shopping,” Reese said.
He added that once a student
schedules an interview he is ex
pected to keep it, unless he noti
fies the office he will not inter
view that company.
He estimated about one-third
of the projected January and May
graduates have already signed-up
at the office.
Coeds also are urged to use the
placement service. Several female
graduates have been employed
through recruitment from the
Placement Office and Reese de
clared that their starting salaries
are competitive to a male’s.
The office maintains a library
of company literature and place
ment annuals are distributed free
to graduating seniors. The place
ment annuals for 1969-70 will be
available at a later date.
A&M also offers an active
placement service for former stu
dents who are in the military
service or are interested in
changing jobs, Reese said.
He suggested that 1970 gradu
ates who plan to enter the armed
forces also take advantage of
the recruiting service while they
are in school.
“It gives the student experi
ence in interviewing and connec
tions that can be used after leav
ing the military,” he observed.
The majority of the major
companies recruit both seasons.
If a firm is interested in the
student, he usually is asked to
visit the company’s facilities,
Reese pointed out.
“The nice thing about facilities
here,” Reese said, “is the student
has a choice of the top companies
without leaving the campus. It’s
just a few minutes walk to some
great opportunities.”
