580 New Students Arrive for Spring Term
A total of 580 new students, including 60
freshmen, have been admitted to the Univer
sity for the Spring Term which begins Monday.
T. Sherman Stanford, director of academic
services, said that in addition to the new fresh
men, there will be 170 students admitted with
advanced standing as transfers from other
colleges and universities; 200 transferring to
Marines Lag In
DA NANG, Vietnam VP) Some call it "the chopper
gap." They mean the U.S. Marines, pioneers of helicopter
warfare against guerrillas, have fallen behind the Army in
capacity to launch and supply large combat operations by
air,
The Marine ground commanders who complain about
this say a shortage of helicopters and the stringent safety
rules governing pilots have cost them opportunities for
victory and sometimes meant needless Marine casualties
because not enough helicopters were available.
The controversy has bubbled and occasionally raged
at the middle level in the Marine command for three years.
Recalling past rivalries between the Navy's "battleship
admirals" and the Air Force "bomber generals," the officer
said, "I guess we have our jet generals."
Senior officers in the Ist Marine Air Wing, which con
trols the Leathernecks' air effort in Vietnam, say their mix
ture of choppers, jets and transports is fixed under the
basic Marine role developed in World War 11. This calls for
assaulting beachheads, pushing inland to secure them and
then turning the whole thing over to the Army.

Copter Warfare
ditionally road-bound units to fight the Vietnam war.
In 1962 the Marines had a squadron of H 34 helicopters
in the Mekong Delta, while the Army struggled along with
the clumsy, outmoded H2l Flying Banana. Then the Army
switched to the modern UHI Huey and rapidly spawned
aviation companies and battalions with the fast troop
transports and gunships.
When the Marines came ashore in 1965, their basic
helicopter was still the H 34, by now older and less capable
than the modern Hueys. They had no gunships. Today the
H 34 is still the largest single part of the Marine chopper
inventory although the Marines say Huey Cobras will be
added soon. The Cobra is the fastest and hardest-hitting
helicopter available. It was developed for the Army, which
uses it in increasing numbers in Vietnam.
300 Copiers
At the present the Marines have about 300 of their own
helicopters to serve nearly three, divisions in the northern
provinces. The Army's Ist Air Cavalry Division, operating
in the same area, counts 425 choppers. It is the single most
mobile unit in the war and fills a role the Marines con
ceived during the Korean War.
In the category of fast7hitting'helicopter assaults the
Marines recently were averaging one every day or two,
often with Vietnamese troops. The Ist Cav averages . two
assaults per operational battalion a day.
Even conventional Army units fare far better than
the Marines. In the 3rd Army corps there are about 1,000
helicopters to handle the needs of less than three 'U.S.
Army division plus Vietnamese troops.
Marine ground officers say money is the key reason
for what they call the deficiency in Marine choppers.

said that the journal has been
completely revised to include
research and findings on con

Some subscribers work in

"In this journal they won't

wade through lengthy papers

Articles are written by ed

article—written by a social
worker— is critiqued by a
sociologist and a court judge.
Such symposia are planned
for future issues, Smith said.
Other plans include "theme
issues" in which most of the
articles will concern a spe
cific interest area such as sex
education and family plan
ning.
The deliberate emphasis on
contemporary problems was
necessitated by what Smith
called "the nationwide inter
