Dr. Pap Has
Book Published
Dr. Arthur Pap, new University

has recently had his book, “Ele

innovation in the philosophy world
as it brings the subject within
reach of those at the college level.
“Logical positivism” is the name
given to this movement in present
day philosophy. Formerly informa
tion in it was available only in
very technical works.
Dr. Pap has taught both physics
and philosophy. He taught physics
at Yale and at City College of New
York, and philosophy at Columbia
university and the University of
Chicago. In 1946 he received the
Woodbridge prize for the best Ph.

torate.

ROTC Totals
1042 Men
Total strength of the ROTC de
tachment this fall is 1042 accord
ing to figures released by Col.
Frank R. Maerdian, head of the
Military Science Department. This
is an increase of nearly 16 per
cent over last year's enrollment of
890.
Although the enrollment in the
first year basic course tops last
year's by 139 there is a ten man
decrease in the second year's
course. The first year Advance
class is increased by 26, with 69
men enrolled.
Lack of veterans in the under
graduate schools this fall was con
sidered one of the principal rea
sons why the enrollment in the
Basic class jumped.
Statistics show that a little over
half of the student officers chose
the Ground Forces instead of the
Air Forces, in contrast to last
year when the Air Force led by a
large majority.

The University Book Store now
has available cellophane bags
which may be utilized in keeping

Previously the store had been out
