"It would be a dual serv ice," says Ratts. "Not only would the ROTC students aid the people trying to get home, but in what better way can these military leaders of to morrow gain that invaluable experience that will 'help them to prepare their men for combat and lead them into it."

Although he's the idol of mil lions of teen-agers, he has nothing in common with them. He's been accused of reducing the quality of popu lar music to the level of comic books. Most of his proteges can't carry a tune. Many of the teen-agers on his pro grams look like adolescent hoodlums . . . and act the same way. This is thestrange world of Dick Clark, almost impos sible to believe, described with amazing frankness. In the March issue of Redbook Th Mac aziae for Yoaar Adult.
