Courses of study have been radi cally altered with emphasis on all fields of technical training. Engi neering and drafting courses have been opened to women. Students have put on uniforms. Dormitories, dining halls, and classrooms have been taken over by the Army and Navy. Campus on the March is a panorama of the outstanding schools which are cooperating whole heartedly with the war ef fort. Of particular interest to this locality will be shots made at Tex as A. and M. and the University of Texas. The concluding short on tonight’s program is Air Raid Warden. The hero of the piece is Jim Blake, who, like many civilians, joined the Air Raid Warning Service early in 1942. The film shows the Air Raid Warden performing his duties, making the rounds of his beat, out lining to his friends and neighbots the precautions they must observe when the alarm sounds. The finish of the film shows a practice black out with a demonstration by Jim Blake of the many things he has learned during his training.
