Pershing Rifles Provide Color for Campus Functions

By DICK SNYDER
"Triangle halt ... Queen Anne's
right shoulder arms . . . Queen
Anne's salute!"
These words form a small part
of the extra vocabulary neces-
sary for all members of Pershing
Rifles, national military honorary
fraternity. With constant prac-
tice, their translation into action
gives one of the many drill for-
mations for which they are noted.
Blue and White Insignia
F A blue and white fourragere
worn on the left shoulder is the
distinguishing insignia of PR's
at the University. Company D,
Third Regiment, with headquar-
ters on campus, participates in
drill, field maneuvers and special
functions regularly during the
course of each semester.
Under the command of Cadet
Capt. Robert A. Miller, '55 BAd,
Company D has taken part in
many military activities and serv-
ices during this school year.
Since its beginning in 1948, it
has had a high record of partici-
pation in such functions. Most
recent of these services was dur-
ing registration when members
acted as aides to the regular mili-
tary officers.
Flag Raisers
The color guard which raises
the flag high over Michigan Sta-
dium on football afternoons in
the fall is a familiar sight to the
student body. This ceremony is
performed by ex-Pershing Rifle-
men in conjunction with Naval
ROTC students.
Typical of the special services
which the group undertakes is the
honor guard. In October, six men
commanded by C/Capt. Miller
served as a grave-side firing party
at a serviceman's funeral.
PR will supply ushers for ROTC
cadets and their dates when Ralph
Marterie provides music for the
coming Military Ball.

Among the drill meets in which
Company D participates are the
Detroit Field Day, Illinois Invita-
tional Rifle and Drill Meet and the
Third Regimental Drill Meet at
Bloomington, Indiana. At the lat-
ter convocation, commanding of-
ficers of the various companies in
the regiment hold conference.
Precision Personified
Fancy white helmets, belts,
gloves and spats and marching
drill ,movements have been a
part of more than a few Ann Ar-
bor parades. University PR men
took part in last year's Michigras
parade, drawing applause for their
precision performance.

At TEMCO a two-fold opportunity awaits
engineers, physicists and mathematicians
who want to grow professionally.
First, the entire engineering department is organized
under the systems concept. This necessitates the combined
services of civil, electrical, mechanical and aeronautical
engineers, physicists and mathematicians, all of whom will
have the opportunity -indeed, will be required - to be-
come familiar with all areas in the aeronautical sciences.
Highly specialized work will be demanded, of course, but
it will be conducted within the stimulating framework of
a broader background in related fields. Your opportunities,
here, for professional growth are unlimited.
Second, TEMCO offers a Master Engineering Training
Program designed to develop today's engineering grad-
uates into the systems engineers of the future. This program
includes a Graduate Study Plan leading to Master of Science
degrees, and a Job Rotation Plan which permits you both
to specialize without confinement and to diversify without
loss of direction.
