Test Flight Device
Now Developed
Los Angeles, (UP)—A device
that makes “test flights” on air
planes before they are built was
revealed Thursday by Dr. James
R. Killian Jr., president of the
Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology.
“This elaborate and sensitive
calculator, known as the ‘flight
simulator,’ handles in 10 seconds a
problem that it would take an ex
pert operator 100 hours to carry
out by hand,” Killian told an MIT
alumni dinner.
The machine was developed in
three years’ research by MIT and
the Navy.

Pegged Ducks
Improve GPA's
Ten, or 6.8 percent, of 147 men
students placed on pegged grades
fall term made above a 3 point
GPA, a survey compiled by the
Office of Men’s Affairs revealed.
Nine men made above a 2.75,
while 13 drew grades over 2.5
GPA.
On the other hand, 28 percent
of the 147 did not make their peg
and were disqualified from the
University.
Students with cumulative GPAs
below a 2 after several terms at
the University are given specified
grades to make which will gradu
ally bring their cumulative up to
a 2.
Those who are given pegs and
fail to make a 2 point as well as
their peg are disqualified from the
University, but those who make a
2 point, although failing to make
their peg, are allowed to remain
in school.
Out of the total, 72 percent made
their pegs, while 15 percent failed
to, but did get a 2 point.
Any men now on pegged grades
are welcome to contact Roy Bab
cock or Si Ellingson, counselors
for men, in the Office of Student
Affairs, 201 Emerald Hall, for
advice, Vergil S. Fogdall, director
of men’s affairs, reports. 'Students
who failed to make a 2 point fall
term may also come in to the
office for aid.
Nd such compilation has yet
been made for women.

later. For bridgework or inlays there is a
mighty economical way to get the work done.
Any rumors or figures you have heard
quoted that sound like all the men on the
campus are flunking out of school are evi
dent erroneous and slightly wrong. Mr. Fog
dall says the figure of 875 men under a 2.00i
is much lower than last year and the year be
fore. There were 1300 plus below “C” level
last fall term. A lot o fthis improvement can
be traced to the Office of Men’s Affairs with
its counselling service. Do you suppose the
thinning out of the old soldiers is responsible
for the better grades? Impossible !
