He pointed out that qualified

ed services of the DPS, and that

increasingly successful in re-
cruiting persons from minority
groups.
During the training period,
cadets participate in some 850
hours of law enforcement
classes on a wide variety of
subjects such as criminal and
traffic law, human and
community relations, and in-
vestigative techniques. The
schooling includes rigorous
physical training, marksman-
ship, and skills related to

uates receive credit for six
semester hours of college work.

be commissioned as Probation-
ary Trooper I at a salary of $743
monthly and assigned to the

increases to $768 per month
after six months. Upon
completion of 12 months
commissioned service, Proba-
tionary Troopers are promoted
to Trooper I at a salary of $820
monthly. Officers electing to
remain in a non-supervisory
uniformed position are eligible
to compete for promotion to
Trooper II after 60 months
commissioned service.
All DPS officers receive
fringe benefits including hospi-
talization and life insurance,
paid vacations and sick leave,
and holidays as for all State
employees. Uniforms, vehicles
and equipment are furnished
and Troopers receive a uniform
cleaning allowance. Expenses
are paid when away from home
station.
In addition, personnel are
members of both the State
Employees Retirement System
and social security.
Bell said prospective appli-
cants should contact any DPS
office or Trooper for application
forms. The completed material
should then be taken to the
nearest Regional, District or
Sub-District Department of
Public Safety office where the
competitive examination is
given each Tuesday and
Wednesday of the week.
Arrangements will be made
for a physical examination. A
character investigation will also
be conducted and applicants
who are selected for the
Academy will be notified prior
to the start of the recruit
school.
