ARMY ROTC Future Security The United States Reserve Officers ' Training Corps exists for the pur- pose of developing officers with lead- ership and service qualities. Texas Tech ' s Army ROTC program has been bigger than ever this year with a record 618 enrolled for the first semester. The Army department has grown 600% in the pass 41 years and there is no sign of slowing down. There are several organizations with- in the ROTC framework. The music- ally inclined may participate in the ROTC band. Cadets may qualify for the Double T Rifle Team and take part in marksmanship contests which are held throughout the area. Tyrian Rifles is the precision marching unit which represents the school in march- ing competitions throughout the coun- try. Tech also has a counter-guerrilla imit which was supported by the ROTC department for the first time this year. This support came after the unit was recognized by the Fourth U.S. Army District. Army ROTC started out the year with a second place float in the over- all division in the homecoming parade. Their theme was Happiness Is a Secure Texas Tech. A record num- ber of cadets turned out to work on the float. One of the outstanding social events is the annual military ball. Eleven ROTC Sweethearts representing the various units vie with one another for Queen of the BaU. Flight training is provided for the senior cadet who is interested and can qualify. Approved civilian flying schools under instructors certified by the Federal Aviation Agency provide 70 hours of flight training without COLONEL B. W. PADEN Professor of MIlitatY Science cost. Successful completion of the course, which includes about 35 hours of actual flight time, quaUfies the ca- det to take the examination for a FAA private pilot ' s license. During the summer vacation be- tween the junior and senior years, advanced course cadets attend a camp for six weeks. All cadets are per- mitted to serve in command positions during the summer camp training, as emphasis is placed on leadership de- velopment. The camp has been labeled a concentrated laborated course in military tactics. The cadet puts to work all that he has learned in three years of classroom instru ction. Upon completion of the program and graduation from Tech, the cadet is commissioned a Second Lieutenant in the United States Army Reserve by the President of the United States. (He may qualify for and desire a Regular Army Commission.) The new second lieutenant will serve in one of 14 branch assignments which corre- sponds to his major in college. The Army will need 30,000 new officers during this calendar year. At least half of these officers will come from ROTC. Tech is proud of its Army ROTC program which, through its various types of training, teach cadets to serve their country well if the need ever anses. « «l , ' .W Tech Cadets practice techniques using the Ml -Rifle.
