HAS BRILLIANT RECORD Michigan One of Few Colleges to Have Society Included in Engineering Field. By Richard L. Tobin, '32. Gliding is making history daily in the United States. Should one' doubt it, one might glance at al- most any newspaper during the last six months and discover the amount of publicity being given at the present tie to the art of motorless aviation. In Captain Frank Hawks and Colonel Lindbergh, gliding has found two world-renowned de- votees whose names have given the art a prestige which it formerly lacked. It may or may not be ex- plained by just such prestige that the University glider section has become so tremendously important at Michigan, and it may or may not be due to the tremendous im- petus given the art of tireless effort on the part of the University engineering department. Whatever it was, it has developed gliding into one of Michigan's foremost engi- neering projects within the short space of two years. Several Licensed Pilots. During the school year of 1928- 29, the organization bought one primary training glider and built another. One of the members had received glider pilot training in1 Germany and he served as instruc- tor to the other members. As a result of the training, the club had a number of licensed pilots at the beginning of the 1929-30 school' year. The glider section of the Uni- versity of Michigan Aeronautical society consists of approximately 100 members who are all students in the University. It has operated throughout the last year a Franklin training type glider and has con- structed a seconhary training type of glider. It owns at present two modern automobiles, one the gift of Edsel Ford to the organization. These autos; are used for towing and inmtruction and have sup- planted the shock-cord launching method formerly used. ' E ight to "Balance." The auto-towing method consists of towing a glider with a cable fastened to the rear of one of the cars. The length of the cable used depends upon the ability of the pilot to handle the glider behind a car and varies from 300 to 800 feet. The auto-towing takes place on Barton pond in the winter and t the Ann Arbor airport during the summer. With each student, the method pursues' is first to learn how to Glider Section S SPAIN I- FACED WITH GRAVE POLITICAL CRISIS AS KING AND FOLLOWERS STRUGGLE WITH NEW GOVERNMENT + rr- T., .,r., - - --, Research' REE TO ADDRESS ADELPHIMEMBERS Professor of Political Science Department to Speak at Smoker Tuesday. Adelphi's third semi - annual smoker will have for its principal speaker Prof. Thomas H. Reed, of the political science department. The affair will be at 7:30 o'clock Tuesday night, in the AdelDhi room on the fourth floor of Angell hall. Professor Reed is an authority on municipal government, and has done practical work in the field for many years. Last year he was not' on campus, having spent half a year in St. Louis, where he drew up a new charter for the city, and a semester at Harvard lecturing. This charter, however, was defeated in I a vote by citizens last September. He has also drawn up charters for Pittsburgh and other cities, and at one time he was city manager. of San Jose, Cal. Adelphi has extended an invita- tion to all students interested in debating to come to the smoker, which is being held partly to ac- quaint prospective members with the organization. Smokes and re- freshments will be served.

Then the student is taught to combine lateral balancing with the longitudinal balance which enables him to make normal take-offs and landings. Lastly, he is taught to combine with both of these the use of the rudder which enables him to maneuver in any direction while in the air by the proper combina- tion and coordination of the con- trols. Each student progresses as fast as he satisfactorily demon- strates his ability to handle the glider while in the air. Michigan is one of the few Uni- versities in the country to have a glider section in it's engineering field. lY- -LAST TIMES TODAY ~~-- WON MUWOMRW Im 'ARA" ARM qmw fh Continuous Shows 1:30to 11:00 LILA LEE JOE FRISCO IN "THE GORILLIA" Out go the lights.
