MOTORLESS
FLYING

G LIDERS, the forerunners of the
motored plane, popped into the
news again the other day when
Lieutenant Crane established an
unofficial gliding record of 16 hours
and 38 minutes in Hawaii. Exhaus-
tion forced his descent and there is
no way of knowing how many more
hours the Lieutenant may have
been able to keep the glider in the
air, but the commercial possibil-
ities of motorless flying are becom-
ing increasingly real as new rec-
ords are established.
With five long air flights now in
progress (trans-Atlantic, polar, and
otherwise) glider stories are being
relegated to obscure corners of the
nation's newspapers, and yet Lieu-J
tenant Crain's flight, and that of
Rudolf Kronfeld who recently
crossed the English Channel in a
glider, point to practical benefits
chiefly concerning themselves with
air trains. Air train enthusiasts
predict a realization of their dreams
in the not far distant future, when
western air expresses will uncouple
a train of gliders one by one as they
passover "depots" along the line
of flight. The individual gliders will
spiral slowly to earth with their
load of passengers and the "locomo-
tive" will continue toward its des-I
tination. Even conservative engin-
eers. admit the technical plausibil-
ity of such a prediction.

What Others Say
THE DIPLOMATIC
MYTH
(Daily Ilini)
The sooner that university stu-
dents realize that a diploma is not
a certain protection against fail-
ure, the sooner will a great percent-
age of the college graduates of to-
day who are less successful in their
respective fields of business, begin
to prosper. One of the greatest disil-
lusionments for the young diploma
holder comes at the moment when
it is impressively inculcated in his
mind that the parchment or sheep-
skin that he possesses does not
mean that he s infallible.
Men and women today should
strive to alleviate this mythical be-
lief. When parents begin to realize
that a diploma from this university
or that does not assure their child-
ren of success in life, a perceptible
betterment in conditions will be ex-
perienced throughout the collegiate
world.
Colleges and universities are find-
ing one of their greatest questions
of educational policy in the alle-
viation of this diploma myth, and
the aid parents may give in this
direction would be invaluable.
The diploma myth, more likely
than not, owes its existence to the
beliefs and attitude of the parents
of college men and women. Regis-
trar Frank O. Holt of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin says that "par-
encs are all too often to blame for
the attitude of a university stu-
dent that a diploma is a certain
protection against failure."
What today is the most urgent
need to be satisfied in the student's
mind is an answer to the question,
"Where do we go from here?" when
the high school training is finihed.
Mr. Holt feels that the chief cor-
rective influence lies in instilling
into the young minds a definite de-
sire to accomplish some definite
good in the world. Unfortunately,
there has developed in America the
idea that the boy or girl who com-
pletes a high school course is well
on his or her way to success. But
if they go through college that suc-
cess is assured.
Parents need only change their
opinions and the ideas they im-
part unto their children to do much
in clearing up this difficulty. They
are sadly mistaken if they believe
that there is any disgrace attached
to the fact that their children are
not of college calibre. Many child-
ren have native ability in some
special line that enables them to
make a success in the world, where
they could not in college.
It is the responsibility of parents
to frankly and sympathetically con-
fer with their children in an at-
tempt intelligently to understand
them. This will aid their chances
of success and happiness.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE

Dear Pltsch,
See what I found in your sil-
ly old newspaper today:
In 1926 Dr. Hubbs with Schultz
collected several Pacific coast fish.
Now they are completing their work
with Alan DeLacy who is a student
at the University of Washington.
Menacingly yours,

But the thing isn't all one-sided.

IGNORE THE CHILE REVOLUTION
SANTIAGO, July 28.-(NG)-
The cry of "Donde Est El Para-
gua De Tia Mia?" which means
"Where is the umbrella of my
aunt?" sounded throughout the
Press building today as the
Rolls staff settled down to nor-
mal after two days of celebrat-
ing the discovery of Lake
Whoofle.
The rest of the dispatch is
pretty dull.
All of which reminds us that to-
morrow is the big day-Rolls' Sum-
mer Session Excursion to Lake
Whoofle, behind Natural Science
auditorium.
More than 100 students will
take the trip, according to a
statement issued yesterday by
Carlton F. Whoofle, secretary of
the Rolls' Summer Session.
Those taking the excursion
will assemble in front of An-
gell hall at 1:30 o'clock. From
there, they will be transported
by campus sidewalks to that
driveway that goes under the
building just west of the audi-
torium. They will then simply
walk in, and view the valuable
Americana-especially the row
boat which dots Lake Whoofle.
The unusual popularity of
this excursion may cause Rolls
to be requested to repeat it
next week, or maybe even cut
out all that tomfoolery.
