Of his medical career,
Meriweather has said, ‘ ‘ A
black man lias no business at
this point giving up clinical
care because there are so
many blacks who couhl not
otherwise receive medical
aid.
I like tlie la to ra to ry
but I ’ m obligute«l to hold on
to the clinical end. Academic

"T h is IS tlie A rm y, M r.

And it's a fa r cry from the
days gone by! Ask some of the
men taking basic training at
F o rt Knox, Ky. They're being
asked to rate their instruc
tors, the training and the faci
litie s .
The trainees who f ill out the
evaluation f o r m s
remain
anonymous. As a m atter of
fact, the evaluation form s are
not even read until the basic
training company has gra
duated and left the post.
A s a result of the evaluation
questionnaires, the Arm y has
made improvements in the
dining room sat Fort Knox, and
in the individual counsel ing of
fered to the basic trainees.
DOING SOMETHING
RIGHI
We must be doing something
tight.
That’ s the conclusion we
reached after hearing a b o u t
Captain Arnold Freheim of
F o rt B liss, Texas. The Gar
den Grove, C a lif, native re
cently turned down a profes
sional baseball contract with
the C alifornia Angels Inonder
to remain in tlie Army and at
tend the An Delense School.
Capt. Freheim , who le»l the
F ort B liss baseball league in
batting w it h a .480 average,
has been a much sought after
ha seba 11 prospect. W h ile still
in high school, he turned down
14 offers to try out fo r various
pro baseball clubs.
some, it is the opportunity to
live away from home, o r to
tra ve l. Toothers, it ’ sachance
to serve th e ir country. And, to
s till others, it ’ s the chance to
learn a useful vocation, or
continue th e ir education.
To everyone who joins, the
A rm y offers a goaf salary, re-
ti i ement at half pay a f t e r 20
years, long vacations, free
medical care, and other out
standing benefits.
If you are a young man or
woman about to step off into a
career, o r if you are unhappy
about your present job, you
might want to "lo o k us over.”
