Being Designed by
Stoughton
Following a summer of highly
I successful competition and exhibi-
tion flights in Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania, the Glider section of the
Aeronautical society is planning
for the current college year an am-
bitious program of building and fly-
ing, both primary and secondary
types of ships, according to Robert
B. Evans, '30, chairman of the sec-
tion. Aamembership of 100 is the
j the goal of a drive which will start
Monday night with the first gen-
eral meeting of the section to be
held at 7:30 o'clock in Room 348
West Engineering building. The
i meeting will be open to all inter-
ested in gliding.
Work Nears Completion.
Work yesterday was nearing corn
pletion on the rebuilding of the
section's training ship which was
jcracked up during competition at
the Cleveland air show last August.
It will probably be flying Sunday.
A second primary training ship
manufactured by Gliders, Inc., of
Orion, has been donated by the Ex-
change club of Detroit and will be
delivered soon to Ann Arbor. The
section is also planning to build a
third primary ship as soon as the
new membership can be organized
into working groups, Evans said
last night.
Milton Stoughton, '28E, techni-
cal section of the section, is de-
signing a secondary ship with en-
closed fuselage aid greater wing-
spread which will be used by the
more expert pilots in their efforts
to qualify for the National Glider

section's pilots have already earned
the third class license which re-
quires a flight of 30 seconds dura-

cider and doughnuts were furnish-f
ed the guests, and cigarettes werel

7:20. Then Kenneth M. Lloyd, '30,l
president of the Union, introduced
Stanton Todd, '30, 'Varsity cheerI

yell for the band.I
Lloyd then proceeded to intro-
duce George E. Simons, '30, news
editor of The Daily, who spoke on
student activities, declaring that
they were the second most import-
ant phase of college life. Schol-
arship comes first, Simons declar-

Ernest C. Reif, '30, president of
the Student Council, made a plea
to the freshmen not to engage in
riots or wild celebrations after theE
football games. ,
Harry Kipke, 'Varsity football!
