Corps plans commissioning,
Final Review for Sa turday
Saturday will be a busy day for
members of the Corps of Cadets,
with Final Review for the entire
Corps and commissioning of the
senior members accepting military
positions.
The Corps will step off from the
itali Quad at 2:30 p.m. to march to the
main drill field on Old Main Drive.
Final review, in which 269 senior
members bid farewell to the Corps,
will begin at 3:30 p.m. During the
first review Gen. Bennie L. Davis,
commander of air training command
at Randolph Air Force Base, will re
view this year’s Corps of Cadets as
led by Cadet Col. William B. Dugat.
After the first review, freshmen
will change into sophomore uni
forms, sophomores will change into
junior uniforms, and juniors will put
on their senior boots for the first
k time.
Preceding Final Review is the
commissioning of senior cadets,
which begins at 1:30 p.m. in G. Rol-
lie White Coliseum. Commissioning
documents will be presented to 122
graduating cadets by Davis.
Davis will then swear the commis
sioned officers into service. All will
be commissioned as second lieute
nants, except naval cadets, who will
enter the service as ensigns.
Dale Laine Jr., staff assistant
Office of the Commandant, said most
of the cadets have already been given
their orders. Some will enter active
duty in May, while others will be
delayed entry dates.
Laine gave the breakdown of
cadets receiving commissions as 52
in the Army, 40 in the Air Force, 11
in the Marines and 19 in the Navy.
Not all seniors who leave the
Corps at Final Review will receive
commissions, because some have not
completed their degree plans and
others have decided not to pursue
military commissions.

More than half of the student
volunteers vaccinated against the

ing in the students’ blood sam

Drive-in fire
‘definitely set,’
under probe
Fireknen are still investigating the
cause of the fire which destroyed the
old Circle Theatre drive-in movie
screen Tuesday afternoon.
Inspector Ron Garrison said, “It
was definitely a set fire, but it’s still
unknown if it was intentional or not. ”
The drive-in was located on Nagle
Street and was scheduled to be torn
down later.
The fire started at 2:35 p.m.
around the bottom of the screen and
engulfed it entirely.
The blaze lasted about 20 minutes,
and Fire Marshal Harry Davis said
the only potential danger was to a
row of nearby houses.
Garrison said the case will remain
open.
