Davis received his commission from the Army upon graduation on June of 1964, from A&T. He was a Sociology major who was working as a counselor at Cherry Youth Center, Goldsboro, North CaroUna at the time of his induction in the Army. As Lt. Col. Harold Lanier, professor of mUitary science, presented the Davis Family with the outstanding merits of achievement Lieutenant Davis received for services "above and beyond the call of duty," Lt. Col. Herbert Parker, assistant professor of military science, read the citations presented by Headquarters Department of the Army, Washington, D. C. Lieutenant Davis received the "Purple Heart" for the wounds he received in action in Vietnam on December 10, 1965.

Lieutenant Davis and his com pany were in the midst of intense fire when Davis took it upon him- seU to crawl within 15 meters of the deadly shelling by an estimated 20 Viet Cong. He unsuccessfully threw one grenade failing to neutralize the bunker. Upon his second attempt, Davis crawled closer to the range of fire and raised to throw the grenade only to be struck down immediately with a shower of buUets kiUing him. Davis was commended for his outstanding display of aggressiveness and devotion to duty and personal bravery keeping with the finest tradition of MiUtary Service by the United States Army in receiving two of the most distinguished medals to be awarded to a soldier. The HaU of Fame Dedication, which also featured Davis, marked the beginning of a memorable event. The Hall of Fame was established to honor those officer graduates who have contributed outstanding achievements in the enhancement of the ROTC Program and image of the Agricultural and Technical CoUege whUe on active duty. There are two plaques hanging in Campbell Hall in dedication to these outstanding officers. One is engraved with the following inscription — "Dedicated to the Army ROTC Graduate Officers of this institution whose scholastic performance at their Branch Orientation Schools has contributed to a better image of A&T College."

Tutorial Program Offers Help To Elementary And High School Students A Tutoring Program known as GUTS — The Greensboro United Tutorial Services — has been offering help to elementary, junior high school, and high school students who wish to be tutored in any subject. Students who participate in GUTS as tutors come from many of the coUeges and universities in the Greensboro area. The coUege students meet with their individual "tutees" for two hour sessions once a week in one of several tutoring sites in the community. Teaching in subjects of their own interest, the tutors most often help students who are having difficulty with their reading skills; other popular subjects are social studies, mathematics and science. GUTS was established because of some major educational problems existing in the Greensboro Public Schools. The reading levels of these students do not measure up to those in other communities. GUTS is attempting to combat these problems through a one-to- one tutor-tutee relationship. GUTS offers an opportunity for college and elementary, junior high school, high school students of different backgrounds to get together for their mutual advantage. YOU are welcome to participate as a tutor. It can be discouraging at times, but it also has proved to be an exciting and rewarding experience for many tutors and "tutees."
