CPT Trains-

training programs are any indication
of a trend. *
With lady lathe opetrators and as-
sembly-line. workers doing' a man's
work L, at least two local factories,
it was revealed yesterday that three
University coeds have enrolled in
ground school work with the Civilian
Pilot Training program here.
Ground school courses are still the
only CPT activities open to the girls,
since present regulations prohibit
them from any actual flight instruc-
tion. But meteorology, navigation,
and general servicing of aircraft
Cprevigusly reserved for male 'grease-
balls') are included in their curricu-
lum.
Some ielea of the long-term im-
portance of this work can be gained
from a. recent statement by the Ca-
nadian Air Vice Marshal Harold Ed-
wards. Edwards, anticipating a
shortage of manpower for war tasks,
declared in New York that "as a con-
sequence we are developing the wom-
an's air force."
The Vice-Marshal made a special
point of dispelling any suggestion
that women be used in combat work,
but he pointed out that "we are com-
missioning women officers and eI-
listing women to occupy the same po-
sitions that men occupy today."
Edwards stressed the possibility of.
placing women in air mechanics
work, a field in which Ann Arbor's
CPT girls are receiving six 'hours
of training. The local group. will
put in a total. of 72 hours, on navi-
'gational and mechanical phases of
flying with 18 hours in Civil Air reg-
ulations' study. 0
The girls already registered for
the CPT work here are Rosebud
Scott, '42, Catherine Osborne, '43Ed,
and Bea. ColUins.

Instead of choosing the Chopin
ballade to end the program, as might
commonly be supposed, and which
is a brilliant enough number, he
chose the Beethoven sonata in A-flat.
His reason for this is, that the
Chopin ends with such an air of fin-
ality, while the Beethoven concludes
on a hopeful, joyous note, and is more
apt to leave music continuing in the
listener's mind afterward. "The Bee-

Literary works by former Hopwood
headliners ar-e in great demand, if
the current output is any gauge of
popularity.
Willard A. Hanna, 1939 winner of
a major award in essay, had begun
a novel, "Destiny Has Eight Eyes,'
but was unable to finish it in time
for last spring's competition.
Now, in publication, critics are
lauding this story of the war in
China, giving special praise to
Hanna's "alert characterizations"
and splendid pictures of the con-
flict. The author is an authority
on the subject, too, having taught
school for four years in China.

from snapping or ' flourishing his
whip. The ordinance is of the 1889
variety.

On many of the defense projects encountered by the Bell
System, the work sheets -showing telephone facilities
needed and time allowed-would make a good, conservative
engineer's hair stand on end.
For example, take the Navy's huge new air base near
Corpus Christi, Texas, which covers 14,500 acres, includes 29
separate flying fields and 481 buildings. Closely connected
ivith the base are Defense Housing projects for 1700 families.
