German Essay

'Annual Contest Is Slated
For Late In March
The annual competition for the
Bronson-ThoLas Prize in German, of
x$35 will take place late this month,
according to Professor Henry W.
Nordmeyer of the German depart-
m-nt. This award was established by

Bronson, '81, ihr the memory of Calvin
Thomas, '74, Professor of German
language and literature here from
1878 'o 1896.
The competition, which will last

on the question: "Do you think it ad-
visable to graduate the members of
the Class of '42E next February?"
Opinions were almost evenly divid-
ed with a slight majority of the facul-
ty opposed to such a change.
Here are some of the typical ans-
wers:
Prof. Benjamin F. Bailey of the
electrical engineering department: I
think it would be a big mistake to
make so radical a change in our nor-
mal procedure. The country does
and will need engineers, but it would
not be advisable to send unqualified
men into posts requiring trained,
competent technicians.
Donald Naulin, '42E: The sugges-

Helicopter Would Bring Flying

By MORTON MINTZ
Prof. Edward A. Stalker, chairman3
of the aeronautical engineering de-a
partment, predicted yesterday that aj
new kind of easily operated, low-cost
helicopter would make flying prac-I
tical to greater numbers of people
than ever before.

Though many attempts have been
made to overcome the third problem
of tor(uue, or the tendency of the
body to spin in the opposite direction
from that of the revolving blades,
Professor Stalker was the first to con-
ceive the idea of rotating the blades
by low-speed jets, an answer that
