Inter-Allied Conference
Meets For Discussion
Of Manpower-Pool
OTTAWA, May 16.-OP)-Repre-
sentatives of 13 of the United Na-
tions meet here Monday for the In-
ter-Allied Air Training Conference,
which aviation authorities rate as a
major event in the war effort and a
tribute to Canadian hard work and
resourcefulness.
Participants are to be the United
States, Canada, Britain, Australia,
New Zealand, South Africa, China,
the Netherlands, Belgium, Norway,
Greece, Poland and Czechoslovakia.
The importance attached by the
United States to the discussions is in-
dicated by the presence in its dele-
gation of Lieut.-Gen. H. H. Arnold,
Commander of the Army Air Forces;
Robert A. Lovett, Assistant Secretary
of War for Air; and Artemus Gates,
Assistant Secretary of the Navy for
Air.
Contribution Expected'
On the word of Canadian Air Min-
ister Charles G. Power, the confer-
ence is not expected to produce dis-
cussions of the higher strategy, but
will strive for pooling of manpower,
as aircraft are pooled, despite na-
tional pride and differences of lan-
guages and customs.
Canada is expected to make a val-
uable contribution to such a system
because since Sept. 26, 1939, the gov-
ernment and Royal Canadian Air
Force have carried almost the whole

extent its physical training facilities
for conditioning students so that they
may be more nearly fit physically

The conditioning program, as'

cal Education and Athletics, calls for
three one and on-half hour periods
per week divided into equal parts as
follows:
1. Forty-five minutes to be de-
voted to a hardening program, con-
sisting of mass participation in cal-
isthenics, obstacle racing, mass
combat activities and drills;
2. Forty-five minutes to be de-
voted to competitive activities, in-
cluding boxing, wrestling, gym-
nastics, weight lifting, track, hand-
ball, squash, tennis, touch football,
soccer, Rugby and speed ball, with
special emphasis on swimming.
A non-credit course, the physical
training program will be open to
other students who may volunteer for
enrollment and may be substituted
for the present required course in
physical education. Students may be
excused by the Health Service' from
taking the course because of physical
defects.
The Regents deferred to a special
meeting May 28, action on the Uni-
versity budget for the year July 1,
1942 to June 30, 1943.

The United States needs geologists,
and the combined demands of the
government and private industry are
greater than the universities can
supply.
According to Prof. Kenneth K.
Landes, of the Department of Geol-
ogy, "Geologists, unlike members of
needed in the military services but
are needed in the services of supply."
Although the United States holds
first rank among mineral-produc-
ing couintries, there are a number of
mineral resources essential to the
war effort in which this country is
deficient. For the past several
months the entire staff of the United
States Geological Survey has been
engaged in searching for supplies of
manganese, quicksilver, tin, tungsten,
chromium, mica and other strategic
minerals, both in this country and
in Latin America.
Many more able and trained men
-are needed by the Geological Survey
in its work. In order to obtain more
geologists, the Civil Service Commis-
,,v11 recently realaxed its regulations
concerning assembled examinations.
Now any graduate geologist can get
on their payrolls by merely filling otit,
an applicatioi form.

discoveries be made continuously if
the present rate of production is to
be maintained. The oil companies
have lost many of their geologists
who were Reserve Officers. It will
be necessary to replace these men
and others whom local draft boards
may not defer.
Students planning to take a cur-
riculum in geology are required to
announce their intention at the be-
ginning of their freshman year. Upon
completion of the curriculum the de-
gree Bachelor of Science, together
with a certificate indicating the
phase of geology in which the student
has specialized, is awarded. Students
who decide to enter a curriculum in
geology after the freshman year may
be recommended to receive the ccr-
tificate in geology in the Graduate
School in connection with the degree
Master of Science.
