Churchill was taken to a promon-'tory overlooking a "possible land- ing field," surrounded by woodland terminated by a large pond.

Parachute troops were to fly in and assume control oi trie area. A "walkie-talkie" two-way hand radio was given Churchill. Through the ear-piece he could hear the commands of the flight leaders of the annroachine planes, which sud came over the horizon and downed in, wave after wave, at 300 feet. It gave one a tingling sensation to hear, through the walkie-talkie each trwper above shout "Geron imo:" as he stepped out into space and was instantly whipped with a snap like bull whip aa his parachute billowed open. In a matter of seconds, the air was full of descending troops.

A strong cross wind made control of their 'chutes difficult and tossed and dragged dozens of them over the ground but almost without exception they were up and running to their pre-arranged combat positions. One trooper was unfortunate enough to hang his 'chute on the 'P a tall tree, and there he Churchill climbed upon the plat- form behind the officer. When the exercises were completed he said. I thank you very much indeed for showing me this interesting exercise. I've often seen it before this is the first time I've seen this calling out of all the motions, 'one by one.

It is all propaganda Allred said, "that statement gave aid and comfort to all our enemies who would like to see the United States become complacent, thus slowing down the efforts of our fighting men and our program to rush the materials of war to our allies on the far-flung battlefronts of the world.

Flight training is given at the University airport. Ground school courses in the full-time course will include navigation, meteorology, civil aviation regulations, aerodynamics, power plants, radio code, aircraft identification, pure math and physics, physical training, and military discipline. All equipment and methods now used in training are military in character, even to the first basic maneuvers.

After completion cf secondary, students are sent to training centers for advanced instruction in the particular fields for which they are adjudged best suited. Present quotas, set by the gov ernment, are about twice the size of last fall quotas. Of the 70 who will be taking the newly set-up course, almost half fall into the over-age group. The present course, set up for at least eight months, may be joined by anyone meeting the necessary qualifications. Applications must be made at Room 221, engineering building.

University of Texas, by Tuesday, when applications will close. Further continuing their policy of keeping as many flying as possible, civil aviation authorities have recently announced a pre-flijht aeronautics course for high school instructors. High school seniors and juniors are to be taught pre-fllght courses commencing next fall, and extending long past the duration of this war. Beginning July 6. and continuing for eight weeks, the course for instructors will include 200 classroom hours in methods of instruction, air traffic rules, meteorology, navigation, aircraft maintenance, aerodynamics, and airplane engines.

The university has made arrange ments to allow four semester hours of credit to all who successfully complete tne course, and the state high school accrediting commission has approved courses in high schools to carry one-year full credit. The courses, however, go far beyond the war itself. Definite moves are being made in the direction of coordinating aviation into all modern school classes, as befitting its increasing importance in the world. History, geography, economics, designing, English, arts and science classes are all to include some phases of aviation. CPT instructors describe their aim as "to control aircraft, instead of allowing it to control civilization.

An increase of 2 1-2 cents a gallon in the retail price of Gasoline and 2 cents a gallon for ordinary domestic fuel oils and kerosene was approved for the Eastern seaboard Saturday by the Office of Price Administration.

Leon Henderson, admitting that ''price increases of this sort have a bad dislocating effect on the whole cost, situation of industries operating under our ceiling." declared that it was necessary to pass on the price rise to consumers because of the lack of subsidy legislation.

"The Office of Price Administration is keenly aware of the inequity of making consumers of petroleum products bear the entire cost of the submarine warfare against tanker movement along the east coast," Henderson asserted.
