ROTC Commission Fight Continues

Members of the Air Force ROTC here began sending out letters yesterday to similar units throughout the country to enlist support for the administrative cadets scheduled to lose their promised commissions.

The letters, calling for other AFROTC units across the country to "organize in one effort to secure support," were sent to 100 colleges yesterday. It is excepted that over 200 groups will be contacted by the beginning of next week.

A committee composed of George S. Abrams '54, James V. Cammisa '54, and Walter M. Ulin '54, met with Dean Leightton yesterday to discuss the seniors' problem and attempt to clarify the University's stand on the matter.

Seek University Aid

"We were just trying to get some information from Dean Leighton and see if there was any possibility of help from the University, either unofficially or officially," Abrams and Cammisa said last night. "We think we got some valuable information, although nothing definite has come of the meeting yet," they continued.

The cadet group plans to have another meeting with University officials within the next few days.

In addition, arrangements are being made for a representative group of seniors from Air Science 4 to travel to Washington, D.C., over spring vacation in an effort to see top Air Force and government officials about the problem.

Abrams indicated that letters would be in the mail tomorrow requesting appointments during vacation with Secretary of the Air Force Talbott, Draft Director Hanna, and the heads of the Air Force reserve officers program and Air University.

AFROTC Seniors Meet Friday

A meeting of the AFROTC seniors has been scheduled for 2:30 p.m. Friday in Apley Court to iron out further plans and arrange for a group of speakers to begin touring New England AFROTC units in an effort to extend organization.

Students of the University of Maryland AFROTC have assured the local committee of their complete support, and it is expected that this group will join with the University men in Washington during vacation.

A similar organization to the one at the College was started at Maryland during the past few days.
