\ambler Staff Goes To
Hillsboro And Edds Pape
r
By Beth Daniell
Jf you missed the members of
The Rambler staff the Tuesday
before Easter holidays, it wasn't
solely because they were afraid to
face you after that April Fool
issue. They were in Hillsboro put-
ting out the Hillsboro Daily Mir-
ror that day.
Owner-publisher of the Mirror
is Jim Barnhill, an optimistic
young man who sees great things
ihead for the town he serves; Jim
Carmichail, editor, is a sandy-
haired ex-congressman who repre-
sented a district north of Lake
Whitney for two terms in the state
legislature.
Society editor is Mrs, Bonnie
Langford, sports editor is Harry
Woods and advertising managtr is
Bobby Younger. Photographer
Robert Hollingsworth is a P.J57
graduate of TWC.
Bright and peppy at (> o'clock
that morning, staffers met at
Manson's Restaurant for break-
fast. Then they wei0 off to Hills-
boro. George Kirkpatrick, who ncv-
gets enough to eat, was still
hungry\and ordered more biscuits.
When
more biscuits out,
Kirkpatrick,
generous as always, passed them
around. When the plate got back
around again, George was handed
an empty platter.
Wever Is Wire Editor
When they arrived, assistant
editor, Miss Georgia Wever, was
put right to vViOi'k, as wire edi-
tor, writing headlines for the
stories coming off the AP machine.
Editor Linda Boon was supervis-
ing the staff as she does at TWC.
Miss Jean Abernathy started writ-
ing her stories for the society
page. Before Kirkpatrick could
turn around, he was sent to the
high school to get a sports story.
While Miss Jane Scott got a j
story over the telephone, Mike j
Wood and Miss Beth Daniell ac- ;
companied on of the Hillsboro re-
porters to cover the local police !
and fire station. There they met !
Kirkpatrick, paying one of the j
over-parking fines he was awarded
during the day.

vertising manager, assisted the

Rambler photographer, in taking

Georgie Porgie ran away. Well,
George Kirkpatrick, sports editor
of The Rambler, felt like running
away to parts unknown when the
staff went to edit the Hillsboro
newspaper recently.
Kirkpatrick, at the end of the
day, had received not one, but two,
parking tickets from the fair city
of Hillsboro. Completely infuri-"1
ated, he vowed that he absolutely
would not pay the second one.
The group headed for home with
the ticket still in their possession.
Just past the city limits sign o1"
Hillsboro, Kirkpatrick, w s str'i 'k
by a pang of conscience or a h >lt
of lightning. Because all of a sud-
den he wheeled the car around and
headed back for town. He just had
to go back and pay the ticket.
Well, it's refreshing to see such
a display of pure honesty every
now and then. (We won't tell them
what else you did that day in Hills-
boro, George.)
Speaking of refreshing, isn't
it just wonderful how versatile
the dramatic students of TWC
are? How many people are there
who can read parts in three dif-
ferent plays in one night, without
knowing what any of the plays
were about?
Another refreshing thought —
there are more than four people
running for cheerleader. We have
outdone ourselves, and it's won-

The student education associa-
tion will meet Tuesday, April 11,
at 7:30 p.m. in the MSM center.

mately 300 guests will be expect-

Just after his election in 1912,
Woodrow Wilson visited an aunt
who was almost deaf. She asked
him how he was now employed,
and he bellowed into her ear trum-
pet that he was now tne
President.
"Of what?" inquired the old
lady.
"Of the U.S.A.," Wilson shout-
ed back.
The aunt closed the discussion
by snorting, "Don't be silly!"

Decidedly not. In fart most executive jobs are on
the ground. 01 course, all officers may appl> for pilot
and navigator training if lliey meet the eligibility
requirements. There will al\va\> be a need for piloted
aircraft. And it is foreseeable that in your working
lifetime, there will be piloted spacecraft —piloted and
navigated by Air Force officers.
But right now, there is also a big future for college-
trained Air Force officers on the ground. New and
exciting technical jobs are opening up. Important ad-
ministrative positions must be filled as World War II
officers move into retirement.
How can you—a college .student—become an Air
Force officer? First, there's Air Force KOTC. Then
for college graduates, men and women in certain
fields, there is Officer Training School. The graduate
of its three-month course wins a commission a> a sec-
ond lieutenant. Other ways are the Navigator Train-
ing program, and the Air Force Academy.
Some benefits that go with being an Air Force
officer. Starting salary plus allowance-- compare
with the average in equivalent ci\ilian jobs. Then
there's free medical and dental care, thirty-day vaca-
tion. the chance to win graduate ^cgiee- at Air
Force-expense, and liberal retirement provisions.
No, Air Force officers do not need wings to move
up. There's plenty doing on the ground. Perhaps \ou
could lie one of tlie-c >oung executives in blue. A-k
