think we can handle it very

One sign road: "Soul
brothers, a time has come
for us to get better food, so
we are going to boycott

This is for a better demand
for food. Don’t eat in the caf-

Dr. Hale said none of the

him even though "we have

he had held meetings with

Hale said.
"I think they have been

the cafeteria protest has
been seized upon by the mili-

campus issue to promote
their cause.
Barr said he feels the pro-
test movement is “just for
those students who are not
satisfied with the cafeteria
situation.’
"Some are satisfied and
we are happy for them," he
said. "Let them go and eat

authorized by law."
Reserve and guard units
which were mobilized will
be reconstituted in the
backup forces beginning in
January 1970, the army
said.
Less than a month ago,
November 18, the army
announced that 30 basic
combat training compa-
nies at Fort Bliss, Texas,
and 18 advanced individual
training companies at Fort
Dix, N. J., would be
eliminated.
Since then, sources said,
it was decided to set a tar-
get and get prepared for
release of the 20,000
guardsmen and reservists
ordered to active duty last
spring to supply support
troops for Vietnam and to
plug some holes in the
army’s forces in the Unit-
ed States.
The January draft call
has been set at 26,800. it
was not known immediate-
increase will show up in
later months.
A total of 38,000 army,
air force and navy reserv-
ists and guardsmen were
mustered in the wake of
the enemy’s winter offen-
sive in Vietnam and a
flareup of tensions in Ko-
rea stemming from the
seizure of the U. S. spy
ship Pueblo.
The air force already
has started freeing 16,127
reservists and guardsmen.
All of them are due back
in civilian life by June 30.
Mobilized pilots and nav-
igators will be replaced

lar training output and

The navy also has re-

reservists It ordered up
earlier this year.
Most of the 13.600 ar®|v
guardsmen and 6,400 army
reservists were ordered |

Some 7.600 of them have
gone to South Vietnam in
76 units.
These units began arriv-

Normal precautions

donation of platelets as in

The technique is unique,

even necessary to type

The man who resigned as
manager of Fountainhead
Lodge last month to take a
job in South Carolina has
been rehired for the same
position, it was announced
Friday.
Robert Breeden, director
of the industrial develop-
ment and parks department,
said James W. Cargile will
return as manager of the
lodge December 16.
"He called me Sunday and
asked if the position was still
open.” Breeden said. "I told!
him it was and that we
would be happy to have him
back.”
Cargile will return at the
same salary he was making
when.he left — $685 a month.
Before leaving, Cargile
had managed Fountainhead
Lodge for a year. Prior to
that, he was manager of
Western Hills Lodge near
Tahlequah for four years.
At the time he quit, Car-
gile said he was leaving
mainly because of salary
and that in South Carolina
he would have more freedom
in private enterprise.
