...armed forces. About 45 per cent of all Army officers currently on active duty are ROTC graduates; 65 per cent of our Ist lieutenants and 85 per cent of our 2nd lieutenants come from the ROTC program. The Army needs 18,000 new 2nd lieutenants each year to meet normal attrition. We met that goal last year and expect to meet it again this year. For some years before that, we had serious shortfalls. There is little question that the current wave of anti-ROTC sentiment, unless reversed by exemplary action on the part of ROTC host institutions, will have...

Though most of the loss came before April and the U.S. gold stock has stabilized since the two-tier system was set up, the total is low enough to cause concern. Warns Vice President Harold
...handsome blond Orphan (Michael Glenn-Smith) has been expelled from a celestial garden, but he has brought with him the stained-glass eye of God, his personal token of hope in the essential goodness of things. He meets an Angel (crestfallen) with grave dark eyes. This lovely girl (Susan Watson) tells the Orphan that she is tired of being a Nobody and wants to be a Somebody. Together they meet Potemkin, a master of ceremonies and revelers, played with winning guile by Keith Charles. Potemkin tells the Orphan that he has read that God is dead, so survival has become...
