CADET SLOUCH
by Jim Earle
Air Force cadets score
high in summer training
The accomplishments of A&M’s
Air Force ROTC cadets at sum
mer field training has been com
mended, by Acting President A.
R. Luedecke.
“The excellent performance of
all the cadets, and their winning
50 per cent of the awards cer
tainly reflects great credit upon
the individuals, the Corps of
Cadets and the Department of
Aerospace Studies,” Luedecke

Editor:
Once upon a time there was a
top twenty team,
When it came to football they
were really mean;
As you walked on their field
they’d yell “Tiger Bait,”
But on September 19th they
had a pretty rough date.
It seems the “Youth Brigade”
from Aggieland
Went to Baton Rouge with
their world famous band.
They had what we call “esprit
de corps;”
When they left that field they
had a lot more.
As the clock ran out the fate
was seen;
The score as it stood was 20-18.
Now as this poem draws to
a close,
I’ll bet you one thing as sure
as your nose;
Next week when they pick the
top twenty teams,
Those rough, tough Tigers
won’t be on the scene.

Editor:
As Aggie parents (class of ’73)
we have been very interested
in the recent comments on be
havior on campus, especially dur
ing yell practice and football
games. Since we live in enemy
territory (Texas Tech) about the
only news we get from our local
paper is bad stuff.
We have learned over the years
to take abuse and criticism from
Soviet craft takes samples,
heads back toward earth
MOSCOW (A*)—Luna 16, Mos
cow’s versatile moon machine,
scooped up samples of the lunar
surface, loaded them aboard a
rocket and then fired the missile
and its precious cargo toward
earth Monday.
The rocket capsule is destined
to reach the earth Thursday.
The unmanned Luna 16’s
achievement gave Soviet scien
tists a morale boost after they
lost last year the race to put a
man on the moon.
The rocket’s capsule presum
ably will land somewhere in the
Soviet Union, but one British
scientist said he believed it would
splash down in the Indian Ocean
with Soviet ships standing by to
pick it up.
Tass, official Soviet news
agency, predicted a difficult re
covery. “As the region of the
touchdown territory is rather
large, the search for apparatus
will represent a complicated
task,” the agency said.
Sir Bernard Lovell, director of
Britain’s radio-astronomy observ
atory at Jodrell Bank said Luna
16 “opens the possibility of auto
matic recovery of Martian sam
ples during this decade.”
Luna 16 was launched Sept.
12, went into moon orbit Thurs
day — five days later — and
landed in the Sea of Fertility on
Sunday.
It transmitted pictures to earth
while digging up moon rocks “at
a depth of up to 350 millime
ters” — nearly 14 inches — tass
said.
The machine, duplicating much
of the work performed by U. S.
astronauts, who first landed on
the moon July 20, 1969, hermet
ically sealed the moon samples in
a container for the voyage to
earth Tass stated.
The rocket blastoff apparently
did not damage Luna 16. Tass
said the mechine would continue
to perform temperature and ra
diation experiments.
It said the electric drill that
dug for moon samples and the
arm that gathered the rocks
were automatically operated by
Luna 16, with only the landing
and rocket launch controlled
from earth.
When the rocket enters earth’s
atmosphere, the capsule contain
ing the rocks is to separate and
parachute to the ground.
Luna 16 accomplished what its
predecessor, Luna 15, failed to do
14 months ago.

the Red Raiders somewhat grace
fully, however, since they will
never forget that famous 3-second
touchdown not so many years
ago. Every time the fightin’ Tex
as Aggies come to Lubbock for
any kind of athletic contest, I
am embarrassed and ashamed of
the treatment they receive from
the townspeople and college stu
dents here. I sincerely hope that
the Aggies do not allow them
selves to be placed in this same
category.
On our visits to the campus
(Mother’s Day, Final Review,
etc.), we were very impressed
by the good manners and friend
liness of everyone we met. We
are looking forward to the A&M-
Tech game Oct. 10, and plan to
attend midnight yell practice.
So, please, Aggies, when the
Red Raiders come to Texas A&M,
show them and the many fans
who accompany them, that Ag
gies are not rude, foul-mouthed
drunks (as they like to believe),
but clean-cut, decent young men
who love their country and their
school.
And beat hell out of Texas Tech !

said.
“At the Eglin AFB, Fla., en
campment, a special enriched
camp for cadets from the four
military schools of Texas A&M,
the Citadel, VMI and VPI, Ag
gies won eight of the 16 major
awards available,” Col. Keith C.
Hanna said.
“About 25 to 30 per cent of the
cadet population at Eglin was
from A&M,” the professor of
aerospace studies added. “In
this instance, many Aggies were
competing against each other for
the same award.”
Hanna said results from other
field training camps are also
noteworthy. Sixteen A&M cadets
attended camps at other Air
Force bases, where the cadet pop
ulation numbered around 1,000.
“These 16 cadets, representing
about three per cent of the total
cadet population, won five — 16
per cent — of the 40 major
awards presented,” he said.
The Vice Commandant’s Award
was made to the top cadet of
each 23- or 24-man flight on the
basis of leadership capabilities
and military proficiency exhibit
ed. Cadets serve in various
flight command position during
the training.
At Dover AFB, Del., Billy M.

received the award. Jimmy L.
