You-Tomorrow instills life-long lessons
By SELINA GONZALEZ
Of The Battalion Staff
The tragic death of Col. Sidney
L. Loveless’ 14-year-old niece
prompted him to create an orga
nization that would provide to
day’s youth a better tomorrow.
Loveless’ niece was shot by a
friend who believed her father’s
gun was not loaded.
You-Tomorrow, a non-profit
organization developed in 1957
by Loveless, Class of ’38, began as
a gun safety school at Pleasant
Acres, located just off Farm Road
2818 close to the A&M Cavalry
stables, to prevent accidental
deaths.
Loveless provides educational
opportunities in gun safety,
horsemanship and camping to
students between 11 and 19 years
old 52 weeks a year.
Loveless said the purpose of
You-Tomorrow is to:
• teach riflery, according to
the National Rifle Association
specifications, stressing safety,
marksmanship, sportsmanship
and training in democratic prin
ciples.
• teach equitation on the flat
saddle, placing emphasis on the
care of the horse.
• instill in the youth of today
the lessons that can be learned in
such activities to be better citizens
tomorrow.
• prevent juvenile delinquency
by providing an outlet for interest
in such activities.
• provide leadership opportu
nities to young people.
“You-Tomorrow and the Na
tional Rifle Association share in
the goal that every individual who
should ever handle a firearm be a
trained individual, thereby con
serving our most valuable re-

source - our people,” Loveless
said.
Loveless, an Army Reserve
Colonel, began the riding pro
gram in 1959 and the camping
school in 1962.
All riders are expected to carry
out the stable routines which they
are taught, he said. All grooming,
cleaning of equipment, care of
horses, and cleaning of stables
and paddocks is performed by
members of the school under the
guidance of instructors.
Loveless said the goal of the
camping school is to develop a
leader who not only can take care
of himself in the outdoors, but
who can step forward and help
others to fina their way if lost.
“We put young people in posi
tions of responsibility so they can
learn to be leaders if they want to,
because you don’t teach lead
ership out of a book,” Loveless
said.

Volunteers at rape crisis center offer support
Classes begin Feb. 26
By JILL BUTLER
Of The Battalion Staff
The Brazos County Rape Crisis Center begins
training classes Feb. 26 for those interested in be
ing rape crisis center volunteers.
Betsy Purcell, coordinator of volunteers for
the rape crisis center, said they’ve had the classes
about three times a year since 1983. Classes cover
the medical, legal and psychological aspects of
rape.
Class members learn how to work with rape
survivors in support groups, to talk openly about
rape with survivors and to counsel rape victims
who call the rape crisis hot line.
Members of the Bryan-College Station com
munity and Texas A&M faculty speak to the
classes about subjects ranging from sexually
transmitted diseases to pornography’s possible
connection with rape.
People interested in becoming volunteers must
apply and be selected to attend the classes.
“It takes very special people to volunteer here,
because rape is a very sensitive topic,” Purcell
said.
Interested volunteers must call the rape crisis
center for a mailed application. Crisis center em
ployees carefully study these applications and
check references.
Employees interview selected applicants and
choose 25 prospective volunteers to attend the
classes.
The selection process takes about two weeks.
Not everyone who completes the classes automat
ically becomes a volunteer. A screening commit
tee observes students in class before selecting vol
unteers.
“Volunteers should be able to empathize with
rape survivors and be able to discuss this ex
tremely sensitive topic comfortably, whiclnsrai
hard to do,” Purcell said.
Volunteers stay with the victim throughojl
medical examinations, take the victim to the p
lice station and accompany the victim throught
any legal proceedings.
“The volunteer’s main purpose is to makes,
the victim is treated with dignity and respettl
Purcell said.
She said the rape crisis center has many voki
teers who are A&M students but admits there;
problem with some students’ motives.
“We want students to volunteer because iltl
want to help, not just to benefit themselves wb
they move away,” Purcell said.
The 36 hours of classes end March 8. Clad
meet from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Monil
through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdavasi
