Opportunity Raps; On the Boat\ Lads! By BOB WHITELY In Wednesday’s Emerald there was a sterling article on the gal’s side of this Mortar Board situation . . . how they rack what brains they have to take the right boy, etc. . . .

Oregon Leads In Pilot Output Fall Fliers Should Sign Immediately; Classes to Close “Only three universities in the United States have turned out more private pilots through the civil pilot training program than has the University of Oregon,” it was announced by J. C. Stovall, assistant director of the CPT pro gram. Mr. Stovall revealed that of the 674 institutions which have sponsored the program, only eight beside the top three—Stan ford, University of California, and the University of Alabama, have even tied our record of 210 students in the last two years. Of this number 21 girls took the course. No one will be able to register for the fall term primary course here after the end of this term, Mr. Stovall stated, since the of fice will be contacting accepted applicants during the summer and the classes will begin immediate ly after school starts. In regard to the national CPT program, Mr. Stovall said that recent changes and expansion have formed three new courses— cross country, student instructor and a review course which will take the flyer up to his commer cial pilot license with 200 hours in the air.

To Go to Sleep Footlights to Shine On Broadway Hit May 16, 17, 20 A rusty plow, a garden hose, and an old oil can are some of the problems of property men for “George Washington Slept Here," Kaufman-Hart hit to open in the University theater May 16, 17, and 20. In addition to these, property men must handle a barrel of china, a hammer and chisel with which to demolish it, fireplace soot, dripping rain, and clouds of smoke. Even harder to keep on hand than smoke clouds are a bag of candy, a woman’s purse contain ing 10 cents, and five bottles of Scotch. Sound effects men have their worries, too. They must repro duce the sounds china makes when smashed inside a barrel, radio static, thunder, rain, wind, banging shutters, and clattering doors. No difficulty should be experi enced in the recreation of the familiar “razzberry,” and only slightly more with the call of the yellow-breasted barn swallow, a saw, and a lawnmower. But the sound effects men may be pardoned if they quail slightly when they find “well-drill" and “fly buzz" on the list of sounds to be reproduced.
