Collegians Do Think TRY THEIR WINGS To further the giant air training program it is now sponsoring for col lege and university students, the Civil Aeronautics Authority has set aside a 100,000 fund for research work on the aptitude and reaction of student pilots. Already more than 355 col leges have enrolled over 8,480 flyers in the new course, and it is fast ap proaching the quota of 10,000 to 11,000 students eventually to be trained with the 4,000,000 fund handled by the C.A.A. Of 333 University of Oklahoma co eds answering a questionnaire, 313 checked to make friends as the reason for coming to college. Robert E. Bcnchley has a literary cir cle dedicated to him at Loyola college in Baltimore. Members will study modern American humor, and will first examine the works of the new dean of American humorists. Twenty colleges are this year co operating to improve teacher education in the United States. We Don't Want To Fight in Europe This is the slogan of an all-college Peace F'ront, being organized by Stan- Icy Frankcl, editorial chairman of the Daily Northwestern. Twenty-three of the leading eastern universities and 53 of the leading middle west col leges arc now working under the Peace Front banner. The purpose of the Peace Front is to keep this nation out of war. Through campus newspapers it wants to propagandize for peace, pointing out to the 1,350,000 American college students that the present war is none of their business, that democracy's dangers lie in this hemisphere, and that they have nothing to gain by fight ing. TALK ABOUT MISSIONS In the Apostolic Academy of the Col lege Sodality which met Nov. 28, Royce McFayden discussed the Catholic Medi cal Missions. Catherine Coleman spoke on the Maryknoll Missions, and Janet McCarty on the Patna Missions. Lor etta Calnan, chairman, introduced the speakers. A foot of land in the Pas- sionist Colored Mission was sold to each sodalist who contributed seven cents. Summarizes College Program Isabel Molloy explained the new plan for the Cisca College meetings to EOL delegates, and summarized the discussion of the last meeting on the Existence and Nature of God.

Helen Sheahan reviewed The Delusson Family, and Clare Ander son led discussion on the character istics of great, and of popular literature. Mary Ellen Kelley, chairman, intro duced John Cogley, of the Catholic Worker, to the Social Action academy. Mr. Cogley stated that if some of the poor are not considered respectable, neither should that society that allows them to be poor, be considered respect able. Cisca Collegians Meet What Is Man? is the subject of the next Cisca College meeting to be held Sunday, Dec. 10, at 3 p. m. in the Marquette Institute, 155 N. Clark St. At last Sunday's meeting, Isabel Molloy, starting with the premise that there is a Creator, proved that an indi vidual must accept the teachings of the Catholic Church. Mary Margaret Mit chell, Clare Anderson, Ruth Mader, Ruth Klodzinski, Phyllis Fuencr, and Marie Kioebge attended. HEAR FATHER LORD At Father Lord's Day oi Motiva tion in the Morrison Hotel, Nov. 19 were Betty Shanahan, Eleanor Buckley, Dorothy Homan, Frances Butt, Phyllis Fuener, Isabel Molloy, Mary Margaret Mitchell. The Loyola News in a column called Catholic Collegiate World is broad casting the Catholic activities of col leges all over the country. Investigate the Future (University of California) If the citizens want their students to get from the university all that is in it to give, they must be prepared to re cognize that the road to intellectual achievement lies through the high road of freedom. They must recognize that a new world is being created before our eyes, and that we cannot map its frontiers without the risk of a voyage of exploration. Discover the Past (University of Chicago) Progrcssivism has become so ab sorbed with the study of contemporary world that it forgets human culture has traditional roots. With but very few ex ceptions, we have no truly great teach ers in this century. It is up to us, as good teachers, not as great teachers, to teach our students to read, write, and speak so that they will be able to read the teachings of the great teachers the classicists and learn their philosophy not for the past's sake but for the sake of the present and the future. Desirable Scholastically, Socially The college press is campaigning for no curtailment of N.Y.A. funds. It cites the fact that N.Y.A. work is done by scholastically desirable students on socially desirable projects. A collegian writer declares: N.Y.A. not only will build for the future a more educated America, but also an America with stronger character.
