ASHINKTON UP) — The
ed services surprisingly are
ing their enlistment quotas—
then some — despite Presi-
jent Nixon’s moves to reduce the
impact of the draft,
f Enlistment figures from the
Amy, Marines, Navy and Air
Force show they have had no
trouble reaching their volunteer
ob ectives.
IThis comes as a surprise to
e Pentagon manpower offi-
s. They anticipated a drop
enlistments after Nixon more
a month ago canceled No-
iber-December draft calls and
|d he would order Selective
ice reforms about Jan. 1.
I'he draft long has been con-
red a stimulus to enlistments
many youths preferring to
up for the service and some-
es the assignment of their
ice rather than being hauled
md put where the Army needs
m.
fficials said they don’t know
.tize the end oh
will meet from
each Monday
pointed out the
«dial help for
trouble with s|
, grammar, cli
ness in their
how to explain what’s been hap
pening. But they are particular
ly pleased because enlistments
haven’t slackened amid rising
public ferment over the war in
Vietnam.
The Army recruiting command
reported it signed up 20,525
young men during September —
114.7 per cent of the objective of
17,900.
Nixon made his announcement
Sept. 19, which left more than a
third of the month in which a
downtrend in enlistments could
have taken hold.
October Army enlistments ran
ahead of schedule for the first
12 days of the month, the latest
period for which figures are
available. A total of 6,027 men
volunteered, nearly 38 per cent
of the month’s goal.
The Marine Corps said its Sep
tember enlistment quota of 6,100
was exceeded by 68 men and its
October quota of 6,200 was more
than half filled as of Oct. 11.
The Navy reported it planned
for 8,000 volunteers in Septem-
Off The Record
ber, and 8,046 signed on.
The Navy’s October objective
of 7,482 enlistments also was
more than half subscribed as of
mid-October.
The Air Force asked for 7,342
volunteers in September but fell
9 men short. No Air Force fig
ures are available as yet for
October enrollments.
Although the bulk of draftees
go into the Army, the presence
of the Selective Service has an
impact on the availability of vol
unteers for the other services.
Secretary of Defense Melvin
R. Laird canceled the Novem-
ber-December draft calls total
ing 50,000 and ordered that the
October draft call of 29,000 be
spread over the three-month
period.
He has forecast a January
draft call of 35,000 men, but has
said that this will be reviewed
during December.
If enlistments remain up, the
January call need not be in
creased and possibly could be
decreased.

-v fwk is a long-time Donovan fan,
w tmi a bit disappointed in this
urn. It is not bad mind you,
it is by no means outstand-
The content is just too
through Nov.’# 1 * and shallow.
Academic buildi J 1 i ust seems to be an album
ditties. “I Love My Shirt” is
ply too cute. At first it seems
a nice enough thought, but
|at reason is there for lisen
te it more than once. The

proficient to any great degree,
it is a likeable album. They are
not the kind of group that will
make any significant impact on
the music scene, but they will
be enjoyed by many people for
dancing and having a good time.
Then, after an album or two,
they will probably break up or
just fade into the oblivion of
similar rock groups.
Grand Funk Railroad makes a
self-conscious effort at playing
hard and heavy rock. This album
gives both the rewards and short
comings of that kind of effort.
Among the assets of this style
are energetic blues numbers like
“Time Machine” and hard rock
ers like “High On A Horse”.
The deficiencies include the
heavy gruo’s almost mandatory
heavy handed drum solo and the
monotonous and sluggish, a la
Vanilla Fudge, “Heartbreaker”.
If the lesser groups like Grand
Funk Railroad can continue to
produce music like this, the rock
scene should remain healthy.
“On Time” is really likeable if
you do not think about what you
are listening to, but do not be
surprised if you tire of it
quickly.

M0m when you needed a shave, that
VHImI would be one thing.
But you aren’t.
You’re all over the place.
So you need a shaver that goes where
it’s happening.
A shaver like the brand-new battery-
operated Norelco Cordless 20B.
With floating heads that fit the curves
of a man's face.
And self-sharpening blades inside those
floating heads that shave close and smooth
ACTUAL
SIZE
every day. The Norelco unique rotary ac
tion keeps the blades sharp while it
strokes off whiskers. Every timeyou shave.
The Norelco Cordless gives you close
shaves anywhere. Up to 30 days of shaves
on only 4 penlight batteries.
Handsomely styled in jet black and
chrome, there’s even a mirror inside the
cap. So you can see what you're shaving.
And it’s small enough to fityour pocket.
Very self-sufficient.
All ready to sock it to your beard.

A&M’s 1939 national football
team will mark its 30th anniver
sary reunion here this weekend
during the Aggie-Baylor football
game.
Forty of the 51 living players
and coaches are expected to at
tend the three-day reunion, ac
cording to the Association of
Former Students.
A Saturday noon luncheon at
Briarcrest Country Club will hon
or A. G. (Bert) Pfaff, Tyler in
dustrialist and “father” to the
team. Pfaff was a member of the
late Coach Homer Norton’s
coaching staff when the Aggies
won No. 1 rating with its 11-0-0
record in 1939.
More than 140 persons are ex
pected for the luncheon, with
Houston Chronicle columnist
Morrjs Frank serving as master
of ceremonies.
H. B. (Mac) McElroy, A&M
sports publicity director during
that era, will receive the Helms
Foundation Athletic Hall of Fame
Award during the luncheon, with
A&M President Earl Rudder
making the presentation to the
College Station resident.
This is the first year sports
information directors have been
included in the honored group.
Six members of the 1939 team
named to Halls of Fame also will
be honored. They include the late
Coach Norton, the late Bill (Jit
terbug) Henderson, the late
Coach W. N. (Uncle Bill) James,
John Kimbrough, the Rev. Joe
Boyd and Coach-Trainer Lil Dim-
mitt.
J. Howard Shelton, President
of the Gateway National Bank in
Fort Worth, is president of the
1939 National Champions Team.
Registration starts at 3 p.m.
Friday in the reunion headquar
ters, College Station’s Sands Mo
tel. A poolside buffet will start
at 8 p.m. with continuous show
ing of the 1939 game films held
from 7-10 p.m. Friday and 2-4
p.m. Saturday.
The group will attend the 7:30
p.m. A&M-Baylor football game
at Kyle Field, a hospitality room
will be open after the game and
a brunch buffet-business meeting
is planned for 10 a.m. Sunday.
The undefeated, untied 1939
team set a national defense rec
ord that has stood the test of
time. The national record still
stands today.
A&M allowed its opponents
just 76.3 yards per game rushing
and passing. This figured out to
1.71 yards per offensive play and
they limited the 11 teams to a
total of 54 first downs that sea
son.
Of 175 passes attempted
against the 1939 Aggies, 48 were
completed and 28 were intercept
ed for a .274 completion percent
age. Twelve of 16 opponent fum
bles were recovered by A&M.
Three of the team members
won All-American honors with
fullback John Kimbrough making
the teams in 1939 and 1940;
tackle Joe Boyd in 1939, and the
late Marshall Robnett, a guard,
on the 1940 team. Including those
three, the team also produced 10
All-Southwest Conference play-
