i THE MICHIGAN DAILY Randolph Field Will Graduate University Men Former Michigan Students Included Among Cadets T Get 'Wings' Friday Six University men are included in the class of Aviation Cadets to be graduated from Randolph Field/,Fri- day, a class which represents 30 sttes and 150 colleges and universi- ties. The six are: Edward J. Horder, '41, of Evanston, Ill.; Richard M. Mansfield, '43, of Buffalo, N.Y.; Mar- shall R. Case, '39, of Moline, Ill.; John '. JFattock, '44, of Grand Ra- pids; Marvin R. Taylor, '40, of Ann Arbor, and Robert F. Watt, '40, of Birmingham. Members of the tenth class to re- ceive their basic training at the "West Point of the Air" during 1941, these pilots-to-be came from all walks of life. Some were clerks and salesmen, others, football heroes and engineers, but all are now vital cogs irt the United States' fast-growing Air Arm. Randolph Field trains 4,500 stu- dent pilots, annually as a part of the present pilot training program that calls for 30,000 military pilots each year. Classes report ever five weeks, and the huge Texas field, manned by 550 officers and more than 3,500 enlisted men, is operating on a 24- hour basis. Ticket System Needs uChage Tillotson Says (Continued fBom Page 1) all the seats from the 50 yard line On around one corner on one side of the field. As may happen in the case of the Ohio State game one- fourth of these more desirable tickets will be out of Michigan's control al- together. Student Quota Cut Other fixed obligations such as seats for bondholders, "Mi" Club memters, and, alumni cut the stu- dent's ticket quota of between-the-' goal-line seats to about 6,500. Since there hre approximately 10,000 stu- dents it becomes at once obvious that all students can't occupy the better, seats. Under the present arrangement the best seats' go to seniors and their guests. Under the system employed by Ohio State and considered by Mr. Tillotson, as much of a single bloc as could be put in.these seats accord- ing to class preference would be given the good tickets. Any who wish to 'buy guest tickets under this system would be forced to take less deir- abletseats outside the student bl. In a questionnaire sent to all zig Ten ticket managers it was dis- covered that at most schools no class1 preference or guest ticket arrange-t ments were made. It is in Michigan's attempt to compromise between the student bloc and the desire for guest privileges that much of our difficulty lies, said Mr. Tillotson. The problem of. the dispensing of1 tickets is also an' important problem left over from last week's mad rush on the ticket office. Forced by schedule conditions this year to dot away with the mailing system, Michi- gan found to its surprise that it was the only school in the Western Con-t ference that was still using the anti- quated system.t Unprecedented Situation The change combined with the Minnesota sell-out brought about an unprecedented situation here, and' the need now is to find some system9 that will prevent an occurrence oft the now almost forgotten "Monday1 mob." The arrangements made for1 Ohio State game' are merely tem-t porary and will not necessarily be used in the future. Here, then, Mr. Tillotson said, is a chance for constructive student assistance of a worthwhile kind.

The centennial birthday of this fortunate alumnus, Artemas Roberts, was observed in Dade City, Florida. These first hundred years have been good to both college and alum- nus. Both have had a long, full and useful life. The many achievements of the College are well known, those of Mr. Roberts, although less f am- ous, have been equally satisfying. Mr. Roberts has prospered, he has raised a family which today includes many grandchildren and great- grandchildren. Another Century Unfortunately, while the Literary Ann Arbor College enters its second century with its accustomed energy and spright- fulness, its "twin" prepares for the dusk of his life. A letter received by the Alumni Association from " him tells his story: "I'am about to celebrate my birth- day again; that is on October 28. I will be 100 years old if I live that -long. As my dear wife went some years ago and my health being poor, I have been unable to attend anyof the reunions and will not need your very interesting paper longer. Would be glad to meet you some time, but it is not likely that I can. Glad to get The Alumnus so far and you have my best wishes always." Mr. Roberts last visited the cam- pus in 1927 when he attended his Sixtieth Class Reunion. Now, al- though he will not be able to see the University again, he !is still remem- bered with pride and respect by ev- eryone connected with .the Univer- sity. Ruthven Congratulates Today he will receive a letter of cohgratulation from President Ruth- ven, which speaks for everyone con- nected with the University: To you belongs the rare distinction of being the oldest living alumnus of the University of Michigan and of reaching your own hundredth birth- day in the same year that the Col- lege 'of Literature, Science and the Arts of this University, which opened its doors for instruction in Septem- ber, 1841, also becomes a centenarian. My owhl heartiest felicitations and those of the Regents, Faculty, stu- dents and alumni of Michigan are yours today.
