Nine R.O.T.C. students received awards for distinguished conduct and four others fainted in the hot sun yesterday to mark the annual Board of Overseers' visiting committee inspection of the three College service units.

Major General Hanford MacNider '11 headed the visiting committee which reviewed all three units on the lacrosse field. Colonel S. E. Stancisko, professor of Military Science and Tactics at Yale, led the Army reviewing party. Captain Gladding (above, left), presented the awards.

Earlier in the afternoon, a special Air Force drill team won a competitive drill with arms over a similar Navy group. The Army field artillery battery also put on its own howitzer show.

The award winners from the Army were the following; Harris Burns, Jr. '54, Lee D. Cunningham '51, Richard W. Finch '52 (above, second left), and John J. Shes, Jr. '52. Naval awards went to Carl D. Bottonfield '51, Charles J. Keever '51 (above, right), and Glen M. Ream '52 (above, center). The Air Force honored Richard E. Matthews '53, Thomas S. Nye '52, and Robert A. Russell '51.
