Continued from page 3
True. Millions have gone through what you are about to do. Probably most of them have made it through, too. Probably. Anyway, chances are you won't have time to be discouraged or afraid. But if you do become discouraged or afraid, see your friendly sergeant and he will make everything well again with a few choice words.
There is one thing about the Army's basic training program. You find out quickly that your mind and body can take immense amounts of punishment. You need only pull a 12 or 14 hour shift of K.P. (and everyone does at least once) to find this out.
Other than mentioning the fact that the basic training day begins at 4:30 a.m. and ends about 14 hours later after bayonette training, hand to hand combat training, rifle drill, marching, marching and more marching, numerous calisthenics and class periods in which you fight to stay awake or sleep in a manner a sergeant won't catch you, this has been a general outline of what you should expect as a recruit — in ANY branch of the service.
See your recruiter now. He will advise you and help you and recruit you. And after you are in uniform you will remember him. Oh, how you will remember him.
Reds plan protests
Guatemala says prelate kidnaped
WASHINGTON — (UPI)— The House Committee on un-American Activities Tuesday said Communists are planning 10 days of demonstrations next month against U.S. policies in Vietnam.
GUATEMALA CITY—(UPI)—Guatemala was placed under a 30-day state-of-siege Tuesday as the army took over the search for the nation's kidnapped Roman Catholic archbishop, the Most Rev. Mario Cascarioe.
Newspapers in Guatemala City blossomed with a variety of messages from the rightwing and leftwing terrorist groups in the country denying responsibility for the kidnaping.
An estimated 1,000 persons have been slain in Guatemala in the past year as a result of terrorist activities from both the right and the left.
The state of siege imposed by the government Tuesday supplanted the state of alarm decreed in the country last Jan. 16 in the
wake of a rash of terrorist acts, including the slaying of two U.S. military aid mission members.
Soldiers and police meanwhile continued what was virtually a house-by-house search of the capital for any trace of the archbishop.
The Physical Therapy Club will hold a business meeting at 7 p.m. Thursday in the Kansas Union Meadowlark Room, Franklin C. Shontz, KU professor of psychology, will be the guest speaker.
P-T Club to meet
Twenty thousand Americans have been killed in Vietnam.
Riots rock Antigua
ST. JOHN'S, Antigua—(UPI) The government Tuesday night declared a state of emergency and mobilized this Caribbean island's 200-man defense force to halt rioting which has almost paralyzed the capital city. U.S. tourists were reported safe inside resort hotels.
