Jx is urgent, according to Mr. Stovall, that all students who in tend to take the course either this summer or fall, should in form the GPT office to facilitate compilation of next year’s “flying fifty” list.

The chart, compiled by Loyal Lang, junior In architecture, was turned in as part of a lecture on officers and corps insignia in Captain W. E. Reed’s advanced military class Thursday. One of the awkward situations that may arise when cadet offi cers go to summer camp is, ac cording to Captain Read, the blunder of calling an officer by the wrong rank. The distinguish ing mark between a major and a lieutenant is only a small metal insignia on the left shoulder, and sometimes serious difficulties arise when a young officer fails to notice the rank of a superior. About 60 juniors will go to Fort Lewis for a six weeks train ing period. Captain Read is using the remaining class time in pre paring the students for life in an army camp.
