Establishment of a model passenger
airline between Los Angeles and San
Francisco as an actual demonstration
of performance and safety which will
be available as an incentive for
further development of passenger air-
lines in the United States, has been
made possible by an equipment loan
to Western Air Express from the'
Danlel Guggenheim Fund for the Pro-
motion of Aeronautics, according to
Harris M. ianshue, President of the
Western Air Express, Inc., Los An-
geles.
Planes prchased with money ob-
tained under the equipment loan plan
'will be of the most modern, multi-
engined design of maximum safety
and comfort. They will have cruising
speed of about 120 miles an hour with
a capacity cargo of nearly two tons.
Distance Is 365 Miles
't'he airline distance between Lo
Angeles and San Francisco is 365
miles and the time necessary for
flight over this route wiU be approxi-.
inately three hours. Planes will leave
either terminal at 10:30 o'clock in the
morning and will arrive at the other
terminal at 1:30 o'clock in the after-
noon. Airports in both cities are
situated within 30 minutes from the
business section so that ofice-too-
office movements may be completd
within four hours, as compared with
the 13 1-2 hours now required by
railroad.
This arrangement, it is pointed out,
will permit business men in either
city to attend their office in the morn-
ing, disposing of important details,
'and then leave for the airport to keep
2 o'clock afternoon appointments in
the other. city. 3y combining this
service 'with return by fast night
trains the round trip can be com-
pleted in a period of 24 hours.
Western Air Express will provide
the latest convenienees for its pas1
sengers on this airline. Lunch will
be served in the air and magazines,
the latest editions of newspapers and
ralio entertainment and market re-
ports will be available.
To have Modern Planes
Negotiations will be 'entered into
immediately with American aircraft
manufacturers in order to purchase
the most modern and up-to-date air-
planes for this route. Because the
Los Angeles-San Francisco line is de-
signed as a practical experiment in
aerial passenger carrying it is be-
lieved that all aircraft and accessory
manufacturers in the United States
will cooperate to make this an out-
standing success so that it will be
an incentive for expansion in this
modern field of transportation.

CONCEPTION OF COLLEGE LIFE, BEGUN IN OPENING
YEAR, IS MEASURE OF SUCCESS, ANGELL DECLARES
"The opening of a new college year are doubtless forms of spiritual ex- ship in col '(e life offers an oppor-f
is an event of extraordinary human
interest and significance, one fraught
with suggestions of romance and ad-
venture not less than with anticipa-
tions of hard and prosaic work," Pres-
ident Angell, of Yale, declared in an
address given recently at that Insti-
tution in which he pointed out that the
conception of college life measures
later success. "Through it all run
the tangled strands of the individual
student life, each with plans and am-
bitions, anxieties and fears, doubts
and perplexities."
"At such a time when our minds
turn inevitably to the immediate fu-
ture and what it holds of weal or woe,
it is su-rely becoming that we should
thus come together in public recogni-
tion of the faith in which our insti-
tution was founded. It is an occasion
upon which we extend a most sincere
and cordial -welcome to the new mem-
bers of our sfudent body. Coming lit-
erally from all parts of the earth,
many of you are far from home and
friends, some of you are perhaps
lonely and depressed by the strange-
ness of new surroundings and untried
tasks. In the few words I shall speak
I shall have these new members of
our student community especially in
mind.
"For my text I take the parable of
the talent read in the lesson a few
moments ago. I do not propose to
advise. Advice unsought is rarely
welcome and more rarely heeded.
Nor have we of ihe older generation
made such anunmitigated success of
out own lives, or so rectified and
beautified the times in *hich we live
as to warrant our dictating to others
with any great confidence concerning
the arrangement of their affairs. But
age and experience do bring a certain
detachment of outlook and a certain
maturity of evaluation of which you
of the younger generation may wish
to avail yourselves. Moreover, we
have some knowledge which you do
not possess. In any event, we cher-
ish only the most disinterested desire
to be of help to you.
What One Coneives
"As in almost all important human
relations, so in one's relation to col-
lege, the real crux of the matter lies
in one's conception of the problem,
whether, for example, -one thinks of
his college life merely as a series o
events from which he is to gain all
that he can of pleasure and profit, or
whether he conceived it as an oppor-
tunity to play a man's part in a com-
plex human situation calling for all
kinds of capacity and affording in-
numerable chances to grow through
the exercise of one's power and
through the rendering of service to
the institution and to one's fellows.
Never was it more imperative than
today that one should be quite as
clear as to why one is connected with
a college, what one means to bring
to it and what, on the other hand, one
hopes to take from it.
"But now what are the talents most
essential for an honorable, profitable
and happy four years of life at Yale
and wherein consists their judicious
use?I
"I do not hesitate to put in the
forefront physical health and vigor.
The ascetic and emaciated saint is a
bona fide historic figure, and there
perience which accrue to a completeI
mortification of the flesh. But, unless
one is prepared to defend the morbid
view that life itself is unworthy and
gladly to be left behind, one must look
to bodily health as. a blessing to be
devoutly sought and %crupuldiisly
cherished.
A Sympathetic Generation
"Our generation is peculiarly sym-
pathetic to the distinctly Greek con-
ception of .a complete symmetry in the
development of our human powers,,
with due regard to those of a physical
character., In historic Christianity, as
in certain other religions of the East,
there has at times been much effort to
choke and starve the bodily appetites.
But, so far as I am aware, when car-
ried to an extreme, this has always
issued in psychic and moral abnor-
malities which clearly look in the di-
rection of mental disease. It is true
that Christ taught the subserviency
of bodily to spiritual needs and ideals,
but it is also true that He was ever
healing the sick and that He came,
and He Himself said, 'that men might
have life and have it more abundant-
ly.,
"From its inception, the college has
been directed to creating conditions
that will foster the intellectual talents
which its students bring. And this,
has, in general, been conceived, as its
principal, and sometimes as its sole
function. Here lie spread out for
their benefit, to be interpreted by
skilled 'scholars, the great literatures
of both the ancient and the modern
world, and the languages in which
they are preserved. Through thesel
media one may have contact with that
which is best and most enduring' in
the greatest souls in human history.
"Or one may turn to the products of
man's creative industry, his art and
the objects of his scientific produc-
tion. One may learn of his institu-
tions and his thought-political.
Moulds Character
"Men come to college with charac-
ters for the most part still fluid and
it is of the utmost consequence, both
for their own sakes and for the sake
of the college and the larger society
beyond it, that they shall be so cir-1
cumstanced as to have exery oppor-
tunity and incentive to develop fine,
strong, stable personalities.
"Without exception every relation-
tunity for moral d(evelopinent, the
classrooms, the clubs, the playing
lield -where you will. The first con-
dition essential to real moral growth
is freedom to go wrong. The man
who is kept straight simply because
he has no chance to go astray is not
necessarily gaining moral strength
thereby. If he is to be a reliabte indi-
vidual, he must ultimately learn to
stand on his own feet, and this he can
only do by facing temptation and
mastering it''
