In fact, we’ll even pay you more than $600 a month while you attend. That’s in
addition to paying for your tuition, required books and fees.
It’s all part of the Armed Forces Health Professions Scholarship Program.
And here is how it works!
If you’re selected for a Physician’s Scholarship—from the Army, Navy, or Air
Force—you’re commissioned as an officer in the Reserves.
While you’re in school, you’ll serve 45 days a year on active duty, gaining
valuable medical experience. After graduation, you will serve three or more
years, the length depending on the requirements of the Service selected and
years of scholarship assistance received.
As an Armed Forces physician you’ll receive officer's pay and benefits, and
enjoy the advantages of working regular hours. You’ll also see a diversity of
patients and have opportunities to use sophisticated medical technology.
But most important, while you’re in medical school we’ll help pay the bills.

Murderer
to narrate
own death
Associated Press
HUNTSVILLE — Convicted
killer Roger DeGarmo, who is to be
executed next week, says he’ll pro
vide play-by-play commentary for
people watching him receive a lethal
injection in the Texas death cham
ber.
“I’m going to be narrating my
death when I die,” DeGarmo said
Wednesday in an interview. “I’m
going to narrate this whole thing
down to the point where I can’t talk
anymore to show I’m an experimen
tal animal.
“That’s the way I’m going to go
out. . . . They will know how long it
takes and what it’s doing to me in
side mentally.”
DeGarmo, 31, a drifter from Cali
fornia, was convicted of killing a 20-
year-old Houston woman in 1980 af
ter abducting her from a parking lot.
He has asked that no efforts be
made on his behalf to stop the exe
cution, scheduled for the early
morning hours of March 12.
Since the last execution in the
state, Sept. 11, 1985, many con
demned men have won court delays
of their executions, primarily with
appeals based on the argument that
people who were opposed to the
death penalty were excluded as ju
rors at their trials — an issue now
under consideration by the Supreme
Court.
DeGarmo has gained notoriety
for his unique plan to auction three
of the Five witness spots a convict is
allowed in the death chamber. He
said seven people have offered bids
— two of them at $1,500 each. The
money would be divided between
DeGarmo’s family and the family of
the woman he killed, he said.
Prison spokesman Charles Brown
said according to departmental
rules, any witnesses selected within
14 days of the execution must be ap
proved by Corrections Director O.L.
McCotter.
“I don’t think McCotter will ap
prove them,” Brown said.

Teachers' union blasts Clements
AUSTIN — Former Gov. Bill
Clements is trying to mislead voters
with television commercials that say
teachers’ salaries rose 49 percent
during his term, a teachers’ union
official said Wednesday.
John Cole, president of the Texas
Federation of Teachers, said,
“Bluntly put, that claim is hogwash.”
Clements, the state’s first Republi
can governor in a century, is seeking
the GOP nomination again this year.
He recently began airing TV ads
touting his record on education is
sues, saying teachers got the largest
pay raise in history during his term.
George May, a Clements aide, said
actual teacher salaries increased 49.9
percent from the 1978-79 school
year through the 1982-83 school
year.
But Cole said those figures aren’t
fair, since Clements wasn’t elected
until November 1978, after the
1978-79 salaries already were set un
der the administration of then-Gov.
Dolph Briscoe.
Cole said salaries also rose because
of higher local school district pay
ments.
“Faced by growing teacher short
ages, rising inflation and increased
•competition for teachers' services
during those years, most school dis
tricts found that they could not hire
teachers for the salary stipulated in
the minimum (state) program,” Coje
said.
Clements was traveling Wednes
day, and his press aides weren't inv
mediately available, said a secrijtan
in the Dallas campaign office.
