570-52,]■( to the university originated in
l spring semester of 1976, during
Kentuch |e class’s sophomore year. The
30-482;\|nior Class Council appointed
fennessee Irstin Archer chairman of the class
489-446 ill committee to research ideas,
abama fiiMveral ideas were submitted for
)5. ■nsideration by the council, which
consisted of all interested class
members. Among these ideas were
a Texas A&M endowed scholarship,
a statue of Gov. Richard Coke, re
novation of the All Faiths Chapel,
and the seal of A&M to be placed in
a building on campus. For various
reasons, the first three ideas were
rejected and the council voted dur
ing the fall semester of 1976 to in
stall the seal in the Academic build
ing.
Three bids and sets of plans for
the seal were submitted to the gift
committee. The project was
awarded to Hutchinson on the basis
of price and because he was as
sociated with Texas A&M. Total cost
of the project was about $5,100
which was taken from money raised
by the class during the previous
three years.
The dedication ceremony Satur
day will include a reading of the his
tory of the seal given by Miss
Kerstin Archer.
Class President Andy Dufhe will
present the seal to Texas A&M Pres
ident Jarvis Miller. The program
will conclude with the singing of
“The Spirit of Aggieland” by the
Singing Cadets.

Do you want to f lyP
Face it . . . you've always wanted to fly! Most of us remember that
feeling . . and for a lot of us it has never gone away.
You’re in luck. Air Force ROTC can set you winging. Our Flight
Instruction Program (FIP) is designed to teach you the basics of
flight and includes flying lessons in light aircraft at a civilian-
operated flying school.
The program is an EXTRA given to cadets who can become Air
Force pilots through Air Force ROTC. Taken during the senior
year in college, it is the first step up for the cadet who is going on
to Air Force jet pilot training after graduation.
Air Force ROTC also has a scholarship program to pay for books,
fees, and full tuition, along with $100 a month. This is all reserved
for the cadet who wants to get his life off the ground . . . with Air
Force flying.
