New Market Seen
For Texas Cotton,
Insulation Material
There is a new, almost untouch
ed market for cotton that will use
around 750,000 bales a year if only
ten per cent of the potential market
is captured.
The field is that of insulation.
Use of cotton for this purpose
is apparently past the experimental
stage. /
Most cotton insulation to date
has been used in home construc
tion. Tests, however, show that the
lightness and cohesiveness of cot
ton insulation make it a natural
where settling by vibration is a
factor.
For this reason manufacturers
are turning to cotton insulation
in refrigerator cars and trucks
and in household refrigerators. The
product is now being tested for
use in marine and airplane con
struction.
The Department recently an
nounced that its Surplus Market
ing administration would provide
payments of nine cents per pound
to holders of approved applications
who manufacture and sell insula
tion made of cotton, cotton card
strips, and cotton comber waste.
This payment takes the place of
indutsry’s “introductory offer.”
The 1941-1942 payments are limit
ed to the equivalent of 27,600 bales
of cotton.

The corsage maker for the gar

and ties them with a ribbon which
will blend well with the costume

Each step requires considerable

This Collegiate World
rACP:
One of Columbia university’s
best known and best loved charac
ters, who watched Columbia change
from a “country college” into a
metropolitan university, has resign
ed at the age of 79. After 30
years of service as grounds keep
er, Joe Mozzeo retired “to take in
the sights and try to keep track
of this crazy world.”
At a farewell party given by fel
low employees, “Old Joe” remi
nisced: “I saw them tear down the
old Bloomingdale Lunatic asylum
to make way for the college build
ings. At first you could hardly
tell the difference between the
lunatics and some of the students.”

ings, such as Ensign, Lieutenant,
Junior Grade, or Lieutenant. The
Navy has no vessel better fitted
to try a sailor’s “Seagoing stom
ach.” Often for days at a time
destroyer crews eat their meals
standing, holding to a staunchion
for dear life, as the sturdy little
vessels plow into green seas and
come up with white spray flying.
Yes, the man who has rounded the
Horn on a tin-can may truly be
called Father Neptune’s God
child!
—CPT TRAINING—
(Continued from Page 1)
contemplating joining the Air Corps
in preference to being taken as a
selective service trainee are recom
mended to participate in the C.P.T.
program since this gives them an
opportunity to continue with their
school work while learning to fly.
The Army and Navy Air Services
allow 30 hours of credit for suc
cessful completion of the secondary
course.
Students who have R.O.T.C. con
tracts are urged to participate in
this program also. After receiving
commissions upon graduation, they
can apply for transfer to the Air
Corps and receive the pilot train
ing with officer’s status rather
than as flying cadet. The Army
has rendered excellent cooperation
in this matter by facilitating this
transfer.
Age Limit Reduced
The age limit for entrance into
the primary course has been re
duced from 19 to 18 years in view
of the similar reduction made by
the Air Corps. Notice of this
change has just been received, and
any applicants who have been re
jected because of age limitations
are urged to apply at once.
Secondary Trainees Needed
A sufficient quota of secondary
trainees has been received so that
there is excellent opportunity for
all aplicants to receive this train
ing. Any student interested in eith
er the primary or secondary course
is urged to apply immediately at
the Department of Aeronautical
Engineering, Aeronautical Engi
neering Building (Old Laundry
Building). Ground school classes
will start the first week of school.
