PLACEMENT BUREAU Association of Former Students MODEL AIRPLANE CLUB TO MEET MONDAY NIGHT Monday night, March 3rd, the A. & M. Model Airplane Club will hold its initial meeting for the year 1941. This club wag formed in 1939 by a group of the A. & M. students who were interested in building and flying model aircraft. The club at that time mainly consisted of about thirty members who had gasoline engine models. Each year on Engineers’ Day this club has held a Model Contest (statewide). Prize money has usually been around $60 at each contest. Model builders from all over the state have attended these meets and many of them have since become students at A. & M. mainly because of the favorable impression made on them by our Model Builders at A. & M. In holding this first meeting it is hoped that everyone interested in model air craft will attend the Aero Society meet ing and stay over for the Model Air craft meeting which will be held right after. All of last year’s club officers are ex pected to be there.

Barlow at once of their intentions to attend this ban quet. H. W. BARLOW FACULTY LUNCHEON Religion is a necessity, denomination- alism sometimes a hindrance, and tolera tion a virtue.

This petition was approved by a practically unani mous vote of seniors present at the meeting last Thursday night held in the DeWare Field House when the matter came up for discussion. Votes on the matter were also taken at a meeting of the fresh man class and at a joint meeting of the junior and sophomore classes, and the same unanimous approv al was given at these meetings as at the senior class meeting.
