Quota Increase
Slated in ROTC
The college military deferment
picture appeared “brighter” to
day as the enrollment quota for
first year ROTC training was in
creased to exceed the number of
students now in classes.
Simultaneously came an announce
ment from Dean William Tate that
two draft exemption examinations
have been scheduled for the 1551-52
term.
The ROTC quota serves to regulate
military enrollment in order to pro
duce a set number of officers at the
end of each four-year training period.
Col. Wilkie C. Burt, coordinator of
the armed services department, said.
Adjustments Made
Adjustments on the quota are made
each year. The quota set for the
University this year was above the
number of freshmen who enrolled
for first-year ROTC courses.
Second year basic enrollment pass
ed the quota set for that group, how
ever, Col. Burt said. A flexible
clause in military regulations, he ex
plained, allows first and second year
basic enrollment to exceed the quota
in colleges where ROTC training is
required.
Under Quota
First and second year advanced
enrollment was slightly under the
quota for these groups, Col. Burt
said.
The draft exemption examinations
are scheduled for Dec. 12 and April
24.
.'GUY YOU CAN'T FORGET'-
Veteran Red and Black Printer
Embarks on 20th Year at Stone
By Walter White
A greying printer this quarter begins bis 20th consecutive year at
the intricate job of composing The Red and Black.
A man who has seen some 50 dif
ferent shifts in the staff of ‘•Ameri
ca's Pre-Eminent College Weekly”
this morning was quietly, but busily
doing his usual Friday stint of com
posing The Red and Black.
The 53-year-old printer is Raymond
Richards, a native of Athens, who
accumulated printer's ink in his
blood during high school days. He
began to pursue a printing career
while working as a printer's devil
after classes.
Fondly called "Mister Raymond”
by The Red and Black staff, he holds
a place considered dear in the Hearts
of many journalists now scattered
over the nation.
When in Athens, University alumni
that once worked on The Red and
Black remember the paper’s veteran
compositor and often visit the Mc
Gregor Company to chat with him.
But unlike most printers, "the
Board members voted to substitute
a resolution introduced by Regent
Charlie Bloch which would delay a
probe into football operations until
the Nov. 14 board meeting. *
Bloch's resolution culled for a
special committee to meet with of ft
cials at the University and Georgia
Tech to “carefully study all angles
of the football setup.”
Regent Sandy Beaver had earlier
introduced a motion that football be
discussed. He had contacted Pres
O. C. Aderhold and Georgia Tech
Pres. Blake Van Leer, who had fur
nished him With reports on suggrs
tions for "bringing football in line.’
Regent Rutherford Ellis declared
he was “afraid to discuss the foot
ball proposition at this time because
its dynamite.”
May Not Get Far
"Should we take up the football
probe at this meeting people would
be reading of a crusnde which may
or may not get very far,” he said.
Beaver termed football at the Uni
versity and at Georgia Tech respon
sible for tort conditions.
Chairman Robert Arnold said
Beaver "acted without the request
to the board in contacting Presidents
Aderhold and Van Leer.”
Expected to be discussed at the
meeting was the policy of giving ath
letic scliolarsl^ps at the two univer
sities. Regent James Peterson Hald
“I’m not against scholarships, for I
feel we should grant them as long
as we have the money."
Qualifies Statement
Arnold interrupted Peterson In an
attempt to qualify his statement by
saying “that is—If we can afford it."
We can afford to give 140 schol
arships at each university and I feel
we should do so,” Peterson said.
Peterson added, however, that he
was “In favor of an athletic director
who would be head football coach
and the University president." The
coach "should adhere to policies
formed by the board," he said.
Bloch said the board "at least has
something to do with football even
though certain legal technicalities
exist.”
“My only objection" said Regent
Francis Stubbs Sr., “Is Georgia’s aud
Tech's policy of buying players.”
