COLOR GUARD L. Clapp, L. Wilson, E. Davis, W. Easton. The Army ROTC Program of Panhandle A. M. College was established by a contract between the Col- lege and the U. S. Army in 1952. From 1952 to 1960 only the Basic ROTC Course (Freshman and Sophomore years) was taught here. In September 1961, the Advanced Course (Junior and Senior Years) will be added making Panhandle A M College the only small College in Oklahoma to offer the full four-year ROTC program. The Reserve Officers’ Training Corps of the United States Army exists for the purpose of developing officers in sufficient quantity to provide a corps of well- educated, all-around leaders for an Army that would have to expand rapidly in the event of a national emergency. In this present period of “limited” emergen- cy it produces new lieutenants for the Active Army, for the Army Reserve, and a limited number of Dis- tinguished Military Graduates who are offered com- missions in the Regular Army. America has depended on its reserve strength for security in time of war from the time of our ancestors earliest struggles for independence. It is fitting that the product of our colleges, mainly through ROTC, have provided leadership which contributed outstandingly to our military success in past wars. Panhandle A. M. College can be proud of its Corps of Cadets and the fact that the college is doing its share in our nation’s defense. Regular Army instructors at PAMC are Major William R. Ellis, Assistant Professor of Military Science, ably assisted by Master Sergeants John E. Clifford and Paul E. Filteau and Specialist Harold D. Stewart.
