There's a lot of it these days at Grand Rapids airport, when LT. RICHARD KEEVY and other pilots arrive to pick up and tow new gliders to a transport command base. The "swoose" and her "s weese" are the transport command's insignia. (Associ- ated Press Photo.) I Colonels Will Address JAGs Visiting Dignitaries To Be Honored by Parade Col.

High Calisthenic Record Made by Army Air Corps Showing the results of their physi- cal hardening programs, Army Air Corps students at the University of Michigan have compiled records that made the Army calisthenic standards appear Lilliputian in contrast. In one of the outstanding instances, Schonewald of section B holds the record here in push-ups, doing 68, while the Army standard is 23. He is also tied with Hyman of the same section for the sit-up mark, having done 510 to the standard 33, but this mark has been excelled many times all over the country. Dexter of section A also garnered two records for himself, doing 130 squat-jumps to the standard 32, and also marking up 22 pullups to the standard 8. Another student from the same section, Carlisle, took only 17 seconds for the pick-a-back, the standard being 26 seconds. Levantis, from the A section also, turned in another of the more nota- ble feats, running the 300-yard dash in 32.5 seconds. i I. NEWS ...by THE ASSOCIATED PRESS INSIDE, WASHINGTON ... by DREW PEARSON OPINIONS .. by SAMUEL GRAFTON We'd bet our last dollar that Drew Pearson and Samuel Grafton are angling for top honors on Hitler's list of Americans-to-be-executed. Well, Hitler should be hopping mad at this year's Michigan Daily -.we've signed both of them. Der Fuehrer knows that Drew Pearson gives us a steady diet of inside, exclusive Washington news. He breaks into a cold sweat whenever he sees a Grafton column, slugging it out day after day with the men and ideas that are this nation's enemies. r t i C t r 4 ti C }C 1 r p i s. a Z s] Y Grad IStd(enit Tells Panama War Policies Velasquiey Slates tfis Co irtry Ieogn zed ap pThreat Long Ago By MAVIS KENNEDY "My country was one of the firs in America to declare war against the Axis," Osvaldo Velasquey, Grad., stu dent from Panama, said yesterday "Since the Pan-American ConferencE which was held in Panama City in 1939, shortly after the second Worli War began, my country has follower a marked anti-axis policy. "We realized," he continued, "tha sooner or later Japan would be ir war against the democracies. HencE we considered the Japs as our ene mies and we began to treat them at such. Pearl Harbor was not a sur prise for us; we expected something like that. "As we are a very small country with a population of 600,000, we havE not the capacity to organize an arms and send it to the fighting fronts, bu our cooperation with the Unitec States to win the war is unlimited we have provided bases for the de fenSe of the Canal; we have provider thousands of men to work in defensE work, and all our natural resource; are being used for defense work." Velasquey also stated that "Sinc the construction of the Canal, Pan- ama has cooperated with the United States in a loyal and effective man- ner for the maintenance and defense of the Canal. Since then some dif- ficulties have arisen between both countries which as yet have not been resolved. The main difficulty that we have encountered is the marked difference of rights which exists in the Canal Zone between our people and the people of the United States. "We are fighting for freedom and democracy," he added, "hoping that when victory comes, democratic prin- ciples will rule the relations between the countries."
