Texas A&M Army ROTC sen
iors dig in with Regular Army
troops at Fort Hood this month
to get a close look at jobs they
will have after graduation and
tommissioning.
Three-day orientation visits are
with the 1st and 2nd Armored
Divisions stationed at Hood.
'Our seniors have received
their branch assignments,” said
Col. Jim H. McCoy, commandant.
“At Hood, they will be paired off
with officers of their branch.
They will spend the majority of
the time with that officer to see
how he operates in his position.”
The orientation visits also will
enable cadets to acquire at the
post exchange and quartermaster
stores uniform items for May 8
commissioning.
Friday morning briefings by the
commanding generals of the two
divisions are also scheduled. Ar
rangements for the visits were
made through the III Corps, 1st
and 2nd Division staff operations
sections.
the Texas Aggie Band’s equip
ment in the new band hall.
Furnished by the Texas Aggie
Band Association, the walnut-
wood instrument was selected by
Lt. Col. E. V. Adams.
The Yamaha studio model was
placed in one of the second floor
ensemble practice rooms in the
band hall. It is played by the
band director and numerous mem
bers of the 300-musician organi
zation.
Adams, Aggie Band director
for 25 years, uses the piano for
arranging and for checking new
music to be played by the famous
marching and playing band.
“We’ve got 25 to 30 men in the
band who play real decent piano,”
the director said. It has figured
in numerous jam sessions of band
members.

Nixon tells conference
speedier trials a must
WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (/P) —
President Nixon called Thursday
for “genuine refer m” of the
American judicial system to make
sure the guilty are quickly tried
and punished for their crimes.
He told a national judiciary
conference Americans are losing
their respect for the courts as
they see justice delayed and
mocked, and the appeals access
misused to obstruct justice.
“A system of criminal justice
that can guarantee neither a
speedy trial nor a safe communi
ty cannot excuse its failure by
pointing to an elaborate system
of safeguards for the accused,”
Nixon said.
“Justice dictates not only that
the innocent man go free but that
the guilty be punished for his
crimes.”
The President’s remarks, open
ing a four-day judiciary confer
ence, touched off hearty applause
from his audience of 600 or so
judges and court officials. What
he said recalled his 1968 cam
paign statements against deci
sions of the Warren court, as the
Supreme Court was called when
Earl Warren was chief justice.
At the same time, the Presi
dent squarely supported efforts
to streamline the judicial system,
which is the object of the meet
ing. As techniques, he suggested
clearing the courts of “victimless
crimes” and turning them over
to “parajudges,” establishment of
a national center for state courts
to conduct research into problems
of procedure, and more money to
finance the reforms.
“Throughout a tumultuous gen
eration,” the President said, “our
system of justice has helped
America improve herself; there
is an urgent need now for Ameri
ca to help the courts improve our
system of justice.”
Nixon said the courts must be
protected from publicity seekers.
For this reason, he said, he op
poses the filming of judicial pro
ceedings or the introduction of
live television into the courtroom.
“The solemn business of justice
cannot be subject to the com
mand of ‘lights, camera, action’,”
the President said, and this
brought another round of ap
plause. In all, his speech was ap
plauded a half-dozen times.
“Neither the rights of society
nor the rights of the individual
are being protected when a court
tolerates anyone’s abuse of the
judicial process,” he said.
“When a court becomes a stage,
or the center ring of a circus, it
ceases to be a court. The vast
majority of Americans are grate
ful to those judges who insist on
order in their courts and who will
not be bullied or stampeded by
those who hold in contempt all
this nation’s judicial system
stands for.”

FT. BENNING, Ga. <A>>—A
beribboned brigade commander
told Lt. William L. Galley Jr.’s
court-martial jury in windup
testimony Thursday that Gen.
William C. Westmoreland con
gratulated the troops that as
saulted My Lai.
The trial’s final witness, Col.
Oran K. Henderson, said that a
few days after the operation
Westmoreland, who was top
American commander in Vietnam
at the time, sent the participants
“a congratulatory message.”
Henderson, 50, a slim man with
light brown hair and wearing
glasses, is awaiting court-martial
on charges of covering up atroci
ties at My Lai. It was a year
before reports of a massacre of
its villagers leaked beyond the
command level of the participat
ing Americal Division.
Henderson said his watchword
to his commanders for the March
16, 1968, combat sweep through
My Lai was “aggressiveness.”
However, he testified his was
a clouded view from the top of
the operation—in a command
helicopter 1,500 feet above the
Vietnamese hamlet.

from anyone concerning an in
cident in or around a ditch at
My Lai 4?” asked the court-
martial judge, Col. Reid W. Ken
nedy.
“I did not,” replied Henderson.
Henderson was the last witness
in a court-martial that began
Nov. 12, one of three called at
the request of he jury after the
government and the defense
rested.
Galley, 27, is charged with the
premeditated murder of 102 un
resisting Vietnamese villagers
while leading an infantry platoon
of Charlie Company through the
hamlet on a combat assault. The
maximum penalty upon convic
tion is death.
Kennedy scheduled an after
noon session Sunday to go over
with attorneys his proposed
charge to the jury. It is to be
delivered just before they retire
to deliberate a verdict.
The six-man panel was excused
until Monday when Kennedy is
hopeful summations may begin.
The government makes its final
argument first, followed by the
defense.
It was less than 24 hours be
fore the My Lai assault that
Henderson was elevated to com
mander of the 11th Brigade,
which had provided three infan
try companies to form Task
Force Barker, the assault unit
at the village.
For that reason, Henderson
said he took part in a task force
briefing concerning the impend
ing operation on the eve of My
Lai, and had a few words for
his junior officers.
As he flew above My Lai the
next morning, Henderson said he
saw eight to 10 bodies outside
the village, but that foliage
obscured any view of the hamlet
itself. He told of spotting 300
to 600 villagers fleeing the ad
vancing Americans along High
way 521.
It appeared to be a fairly or
derly evacuation of the village,”
Henderson added. However, the
brigade commander said he left
about midmorning for a protocol
date with a South Vietnamese
division commander.
