YMCA Appoints Secretary for New Position
William H. Allaway of Denver will lead a revitalization program for the University student YMCA. His appointment as the organization's general secretary is the first time since 1951 that the University "Y" has had a full-time man in that position.
Two additions to the "Y" program have been planned. A retreat will be held at Lone Star Lake the second weekend in September and a program of assisting the foreign student adviser will be set up.
Allaway has worked for several years with various divisions of the United Nations. Since 1951 he has been field representative of the Institute of International Education, Denver. Duties were visiting educational institutions and counseling with foreign student advisers and foreign students on problems related to foreign student exchange programs.
From 1947 to 1949 he was traveling secretary for the World Student Service fund, visiting colleges and universities, lecturing and organizing relief drives. During the next two years he was a special assistant to the chairman of the United States National Commission for the United Nations Educational, Social and Cultural Organization.
He received his bachelor of science degree in humanities and his M.A. in education from the University of Illinois in 1949 and 1951, respectively. In 1950 and 1951 he studied in France and Austria, and has been working on a doctorate in education at the University of Denver.
He served in the Army from 1913 to 1945 and spent a year and two summers in western Europe.
The number of employees engaged in crude oil and natural gas production in Texas in 1953 was 113,400.

Air Force adjutant Maj. Robert R. Council said the Campus AF-ROTC will have essentially the same curriculum, but that more emphasis will be placed on using the ROTC ranks as a source of
flight personnel. There still will be a small quota of non-flight technical workers, though, he said.
The program as it now stands permits any male student, provided he is not physically or otherwise handicapped, to enter the freshman program. There is no quota limitation on freshman enrollments, and any students completing the freshman program may enter sophomore training.
The advanced AFROTC course for juniors and seniors requires that students be physically qualified for flight. Veterans and a quota of 12 engineering or technical students will be admitted to the advanced Air Force course.
Maj. Council said the majority of students entering the advanced course this year will receive commissions after graduation, and those who do not receive commissions will be awarded certificates of completion which entitle them to commissions when they become available.
Campus Navy officials said there will be no changes in the Naval ROTC curriculum.
