AMA corps preserves November traditions Sounds of silence eminated from all of AMA's grounds as the corps formed for its sol- emn observance of Veterans’ Day. Addressing the corps was the SAI, Major Paul Quattrocioc- chi, who pin-pointed the sacredness of the day with his meaningful speech. Raucous laughter changed the mood when the corps began to leave on busses for the annual Harrisonburg Veterans’ Day parade. Boxed suppers, courtesy of Major Peduto, were another innovation. The corps picnicked out- doors after having lead the patriotic parade. Yet another mood was apparent when the boys made for the Madison campus after the supper break. ‘X’ movies prevented corps par- ticipation in the down town flick department. Victory! Reversing the ignoble defeat last year at the hands of Fishburne, the Blue Streaks pounded the FMS lads into the ground with a 41-0 revenge. The scene was Thanksgiving at AMA, and the next night echoed with happy gurgles as the corps partook of the typical feast. NO SOUR NOTES come from Phil Meyers when he sounds ‘Taps’ in observance of AMA‘s heros of this century, GRAY LINES form to honor the war dead of Augusta dur- ing two World Wars and two undeclared conflicts.
