that's Debatable
How do you like ROTC? If
this question were asked of some
of the young men on the Hardin-
Simmons campus a few of the an-
.swers might be unprintable. In'
spite of this attitude however the
'Congress is considering (enlarging'
-the ROTC program inthe high
.schools' as it has recently done in
the college ROTC units. ;
A fight has developed over this
issue between the Pentagon and
th6 Congress. The Pentagon feels
that the high school ROTC pro-
gram in force is a waste of time
while many congressmen feel that
it encourages young men to join
and stay in the armed forces.
To get a better idea of how the
army feels about this matter we
interviewed two o fthe H-SU
ROTC staff members.
Capt. Albert Maroscher said
that he felt that the expansion of

the "Pledge of Allegiance."
After singing "America" and re-
ceiving the morning prayer the
student body settled back and list-

"Taps."

the high school program would
be "a fine thing" and that per-
sons who had had ROTC training
in high school would do "better in
college KROTC.'f Sgt. Clell Form-
by said that he thought that "the
high school ROTC program was a
good deal and could eventually
raise the college ROTC standards
by 50 per cent."
Whether or not Congress will
get its program passed or not
seems to be in doubt but there is
one thing for sure: it has a long
long way to go if the Pentagon
has anything to say about it.
H-SU Debate Teams
Enters TCU Tournament
Three Hardin-Simmons debate
teams entered the annual Texas
Christian University Debate Tour-
nament November 6 and 7.
With 4 wins and 2 losses each
two freshman teams made a good
showing. Don Wyatt from Hern-
don Virginia and Grady Stevens
from Abilene composed the first
team. Team two was Terry
Broxson of Midland and Martin
Lotz of Abilene. Scoring a 3-3
record were Frank DePeri sen-
ior from New York City and Edd
Sewell of Altus Oklahoma in
their first debate experience.
Hardin-Simmons debaters com-
peted with some 140 teams rep-
resenting 44 schools from 20
states. Outstanding debate
schools represented were Dart-
mouth University of Alabama
Air Force Academy and the
United States Military Academy.
The proposition for debate was
"Resolved that the federal gov-
ernment should establish a na-
tional program of work for the
unemployed."
A novice tournament at Abi-
lene Christian College is next on
the debate agenda for Novem-
ber 21.

Purveyors of the "my one vote
won't count" theory might ponder
these facts: In 1960 the presi-
dency was decided by less than
one vote per precinct; only
91 votes cost the governor of
Minnesota his reelection.
