Pershing Society
Organized Here
A University unit of the.Na
tional Society of Pershing Rifles
is now being organized and should
have its charter soon. Junior Oli-.
ver Huff, executive officer of the
newly-formed group, made this
announcement last week.
According to Huff ,the unit is:
waiting for an o.k. from national
and regimental headquarters.
Huff added that the charter
should come “in the very near fu- j
ture.”
The University organization
will be known as Company G and
is open to basic ROTC students
rather than advanced course ca
dets. Huff said that it would be
similar to Scabbard and Blade,
the advanced cadet honorary.
Twenty-eight basic ROTC ca
dets are pledging. Huff said. Elig
ible are freshmen with a 3.0 ac
cumulative grade point average
who have an A in ROTC, and so
phomores with a 2.5 and at least
a B over-all ROTC average.
An initiation date for new
members hasn’t been named yet.
Huff said. It will probably take
place as soon as the regimental
commander comes down from
11th regimental headquarters at
Oregon State college.
The unit held an organizational
meeting last Thursday. Huff said
that the group would meet again
Thursday, when Lt. Col. R. D.
Evens, profeasor of military sci
ence and tactics, will give a tajk.
Lt. A. T. Smith is advisor to the
group.
The company will drill toge
ther, separate from the regiment
and drill team. Huff said. They
will have one meeting per week,
plus drill.
Members are to receive, upon
qualification, service stripes,
chevrons, and special national
awards.

A Campus-to-Career Case History
*4
Cliff Downer (right/, -f Jt. in Mathematics, '41, M.S. in Citil Engineering,
’.SO, Harvard, on the site oi it building construction project.
“Projects you can sink your teeth into”
Clifford J. Downer started his tele
phone career in the building engineering
department of The Southern .New Eng
land Telephone Company. At present he
is working w ith the Bell System’s manu
facturing unit. Western Electric, helping
to build facilities for housing a Conti
nental Air Defense project. His assign
ment: a key liaison job in supervising a
subcontractor’s work on a several million
dollar Construction operation.
‘'One of the most interesting features
of my present job." says Cliff, “is making
decisions on the spot. For example, draw -
ings showed where bedrock for footings
would be reached. Excavations revealed
a poor grade of rock. How much further
down do we go? A hundred workers and
tons of equipment are waiting for the
decision.
‘There’s a lot of future for a civil en
gineer in the telephone business. New and j
smaller types of telephone equipment will ■
probably change our ideas about how
telephone buildings should be built. It’s s
fascinating work, all right. And broaden- l
ing. too, because it's leading me to other i
engineering fields.
‘‘It looks to me as if there are real ;
challenges ahead — projects you can sink ;
your teeth into. Besides, I’m convinced >
the telephone business recognizes and s
regards personal industriousness and »
drive.” !
■ Interesting career opportunities of all kinds are
| also offered l»y other Bell Telephone Companies
j and Western Electric Company, Bell Telephone
* Laboratories and Sandia Corporation. Your
placement officer has more information about
' these companies.
