Society for College Work, Bloomfield The letters are to be written in Hills, Mich.? reply to an article by William B. Stout, who is a pioneer in the latest1 developments of the helicopter, ands head of the Stout Research Division- of the Consolidated Aircraft Corpora- tion. Writing to The Church Review Magazine, Mr. Stout declared that "the day of emotional medicine men has passed-and the day of emotion- al religion is almost out." "The greatest safety for the boys in this war is not in accepting man- made laws and rules set down by some. one Church or another, but in knowing facts and initiative and res- ponsibility, and the ethics and morals which science enforces," he added. "If the Church expects to carry on with what they were handing out to youth-when the war started, without recognizing what has happened and is happening to the world, they will! get in return a group of emotional- ists, a worship of tradition and a holding back of progress," he main- tained. "Youth must have something or the church as we now see it will die.

Hopwood Notes The annual prize award number of "Poetry" came out in November, and two of the six prizes went to Hopwood poets. John Malcolm Brinnin (major award in poetry, 1940) received the Levinson prize of $100 for a group of eight poems entitled "Spring Ritual" which ap- peared in the April 1943 issue. The Oscar Bluenthal Prize for Poetry, also $100, was awarded to John Ciardi (major award fi poetry, 1939) for "Three Poems" published in the October 1942 issue, and "Five Poems" in the April 1943 issue. Three more poems by John Ciardi were in the November issue- "Night Piece for My Twenty-sev- enth Birthday," "Mission," and "Night Celestial." In the outskirts of Stalingrad, Russian soldiers arimed with rifles fire from behind piles of rubble in street fighting that turned the tide against the Germans and started Hitler's long retreat to the west. In succession the Nazis were driven out of the vital Caucasus region and the important Russian cities of Rostov, Dnepropetrovsk, Kharkov, and Kiev. - -- --- - - - -- RECONVERSION BLUEPRINPTS: OffiialsDiscss hiftto Pace rod ei Pollock IBeieues I,. ernuiionual Germai.
