Adams Mouse claimed the resi-
dence hall second place 'B' team
crown in intramural basketball ac-
tion last night with a 22-12 victory
over VanTyne.
Joel Koenig and Bill Lewis paced
Adams' scoring with six points
each in a slow, cautiously played
game. David Maker was also high
with six for VanTyne.

In the independent league Men-
no-Mice triumphed over the Evans

game, 30-28.

Colorado Trip
Plans are progressing for the

Vacation at Aspen, Colorado.
Final arrangements for the trip

By JIM BENAGH
Everyone in the crowd viewing
the 1956 Big Ten Indoor track meet
focused their attention on Michi-
gan's big Finnish pole vaulter,
Eeles Landstrom, as he roared
down the runway, and went up
and over the bar with ease.
Landstrom had just broken the
Jenison Field House record at East
Lansing, and the partisan fans re-
sponded with one of the day's
finest ovations.
But for Landstrom this leap of
14'2" was just another addition to
the archives. The "flying Finn"
has bettered 14'9" on one occasion,
14'8" on another, and 14'7" at least
three other times.
The Michigan sophomore will
seek more laurels when he repre-
sents Finland in the 1956 Olympics
as a member of the Finnish armed
forces. After 1956 Michigan spring
season, he will leave for Finland
to serve in the armed forces -- a
surprising knock for Wolverine
track followers to digest.
Landstrom announced, however,
that he will be back here in spring
of 1958, when he will begin his

junior year. At the present time,
the 24-year-old is nearing the end
of a deferment.
The trip to Melbourne will be
Landstrom's second crack at the
rugged Olympic competition. His
first chance was in 1952 when Fin-
land hosted the games.
Eeles was thrown into the pack
of Olympians as a decathalon man
and finished about 14th among
28 contenders, despite lack of prac-
tice.
"Competing in the Olympics has
been my biggest thrill, you know,"
he says with a Scandinavian ac-
cent. "All the people in a little
country expect you to do only your
best performance all the time, you

know, so you just have to try
harder."
He went on to tell about the
pride his country takes in track.
The best vauer in European
history, Eeles did not come to
Michigan just for track. He is
thinking seriously of making a
career of television, and wants to
help his native land establish its
first station. He is enrolled in
pre-business studies.
The popular 611/2", 178-1b. vault-
er is a good friend of the president
of Finland, also a former athlete.
Eeles participates in many other
sports, and is a member of the
three-time Finnish baseball cham-
pions.

T HE development of a new airplane such as the Crusader, the World's Fastest
Navy Fighter, cannot be credited to any one engineer. Each engineer, how-
ever, is invaluable because this truly new high-performance airplane is only the
final result of the creative thought and teamwork of a large number of engineers.

_t11 Opportunity
for technical graduates with Goodyear
Representatives of The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company will be
here on the date shown below to interview Seniors who will receive
B.S. or'advanced degrees in the following fields of technical study:

The individual ideas of each engineer are most
important. In aircraft design, the time lag between
discovery and the utilization of knowledge is
extremely short, shorter perhaps than in any other
major industry. The solut ns to the most stimu-
lating problems which arise in the industry are
frequently dependent upon the daily utilization of
new ideas and new knowledge.
The graduating engineer considering his first
career decision may choose whether he will enter
this field of work - the design of airplanes and
missiles - that progresses hand in hand with new
discoveries in all facets of science and engineering,
or choose a less aggressive industry. Of course, it
follows logically that greater and more rapid ad-
vancement opportunities lie in a field that does not
stagnate, in a field that is bounded by the creative
imagination of man alone. At Chance Vought, air-
craft design draws capable engineers to positions
of greater responsibility in developing new ideas
and supervising the additional technical manpower
needed to "practicalie" the ideas. Starting sala-
ries are commensurate with education and expe-
rience for partieuer- specialization and are also
competitive with other industries as well as
other companies. Advancement, as one would

expect, is based upon demonstrated performance,
not seniority.
The future of the aircraft industry is equal to, if
not brighter than, that of other industries. The
complexity of modern aircraft and missiles, the
investigation of new fields of knowledge as air-
craft fly higher and faster, the possibilities of
man's further use of science and engineering for
conquest of the air in the second half of the 20th
century, all emphasize the challenge and oppor-
tunity to the young graduate.
We urge the graduating engineer to investigate
these opportunities at Chance Vought. He will
find a stable, 38-year-old aircraft designer and
builder with young ideas, a designer and builder
noted for advancing the state-of-the-art of air-
craft and guided missile design. He will discover
that Chance Vought offers career opportunities,
not merely impressive titles, and that he will
join an engineering organization that thinks
and operates as a team rather than as a random
collection of individual engineers.
We have the usual fringe benefits including an ex-
cellent graduate study program, group insurance,
retirement income plan, paid vacation, sick leave,
moving allowance, and numerous paid holidays:
