Police Salute as General Passes (Continued from Page 2) Mrs. MaeAithur bowed, choking back tears. The general followed. He was stern faced, a pose he uses to hide emotion. Somebody in the crowd yelled, “Job well done.” Mrs. MacArthur waved again. There was loud applause from the great crowd. And the band played Old Lang Syne. The roof of the airport terminal was jammed with people. They stood on terminal counters and on every height. MacArthur acknowledged their cheers with a smile and lifted his famous old “scrambled eggs” cam paign cap as the Bataan started taxiing down the runway at 7:15 a. m. Overhead, jet fighters swooped in an aerial salute. At 7:31 a. m. the Bataan roared off the runway and was airbome. It quickly disappeared in the east ern sky. !!!S:S!!SS!SS!!SSS!SS3Si USE BATTAMON CLASSIFIED ADS TO BUY, SELL, BENT OR TRADE. Rates . ... 3c a word per insertion with a 25c minimum.

These rings will be de livered at the Registrar’s Office to the owners after August 5, 1951. They may be mailed to the student for an additional charge of 25 cents. These rings can not be mailed to summer camp addresses. All rings must be paid for In full when the order is placed. The ring window is open each week day from 8 a.m. to 12 noon. H. L. Heaton Registrar The School of Military Science and Tac tics is studying the advisability of offering one semester for credit of MS II and AS IX to be completed during the two summer school terms of twelve weeks total to only those cadets who will be academically qual ified for advanced contract next fall except that they lack only one semester of Basic Military Science. Accordingly, any student in this situation is requested to report in writing to his MS or AS instructor by 9 April 1951 whether he (1) will probably take or (2) will definitely take such a course, if offered. The report should also include expected academic standing (hours, grade points," ratio, classification, and ma jor course) and completed Military Science semesters as of the end of the present spring semester. Th feasibility of offering such a course can only be determined from a study of these reports. It must be borne in mind that the spirit behind the offering of summer school ROTC work is to bring into step the academic and military instruction of our students or to shorten the duration of their college car eers. The operation of the Selective Service Act and the reputation of this college makes us look with disfavor upon any innovation in our Military Science instruc tion which would prolong the college car eer of any individual beyond the normal duration.

Roeber, Auditor A veteran officer remarked, “This will never happen again.” MaeArthur’s last ride through Tokyo was fairly swift and paced by 12 white-helmeted military police mounted on motorcycles. The crowd, estimated at 500,000 to 1,000,000 was interspersed with 10,000 uniformed Japanese police. The crowd was courteous. Some of them bowed in the old custom of Japanese paying respect to royal ty. Most of them, the short stocky common people and the tall aris tocrats alike, gaped just like Amer icans at the passing celebrity. The police turned their backs on MacArthur when he landed on Sept. 30, 1945 at Atsugi Airport. It was the custom of the land for guards to face outward, towards the crowd and away from the man they were protecting. Today the police faced MacAr thur and proudly saluted him in dividually, as if to symbolize the turnabout he has made in Japan ese life. He waved back, and Mrs. Mac Arthur brandished a white hand kerchief. For all its pomp and color, the ceremonial departure of MacArthur was compressed into? a crowded 53- minutes. End of an Era Thus ended an era that had last ed five years, seven months and 15 days. Yet MacArthur left with his two main jobs still incomplete: restor ing independence to Japan and halting Communism in East Asia. MaeArthur’s plane, the “Bataan” —newly renamed from its old title of “SCAP” (Supreme Commander, Allied Powers) is due to reach Honolulu some time after mid night, early Monday morning Hon olulu time. Story said a layover of about 24 hours was planned in Honolulu. Air Force forecasters predicted the weather to Honolulu “in gen eral will be good.” Most of the MacArthurs’ house hold furnishings will be sent to the United States by ship. Some of the enlisted men on his staff and the wives of officers making the flight also will travel by ship. In cluded in this party will be Mrs. Phyllis Gibbons, Arthur’s tutor during the occupation, and Ah Cru, the Chinese nurse who escaped with the MacArthurs from Corregidor in 1942. Sadness at Embassy An air of sadness was evident at the American Embassy mansion Sunday afternoon when Mrs. Mac Arthur received about 50 intimate friends at open house—her last social function in Japan. The MacArthurs plan to live in New York “for the time being,” Mrs. MacArthur told a friend. But they have not decided where they will settle permanently. “It is with genuine sorrow that the Japanese people will bid him farewell,” an editorial in the Jap anese-owned Nippon Times said Sunday. Emperor Hirorito called on the general at noon Sunday in an un precedented, 45-minute visit—un precedented because, unlike his 10 previous trips to the embassy, this was purely social. Japanese Regret Departure The Nippon Times recalled that he arrived when this country was beaten and floundering, and re mained to see it back on its feet. “We are sorry to see him leave,” it said. “Hq will always hold a warm spot in our hearts. We wish him well, wherever he may be. Our doors and our hearts will always be open in welcome.” One Japanese letter-writer sug gested that a collection be taken to purchase a house for the MacAr thurs in Kyoto, the beautiful old capital. The purpose: so they “may come and live in it in their peace ful old age and see how Japan is assuming democracy.” Graduate Students Take Field Trip Nine graduate students of the Civil Engineering Department, ac companied by S. J. Buchanan as faculty advisor, began an inspec tion trip yesterday to important civil engineering projects in Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi. The group went to Tyler to view that city’s Whitehouse Reservoir project, as an example of how a Texas city has provided a super ior fresh water supply for itself, Sunday. The Wateiways Experiment Sta tion, Vicksburg, Miss., will .be vis ited today and tomorrow, as the group observes current engineer ing investigation and research in the use of hydraulic engineering, river hydraulic, asphalt pavements, concrete and soil mechanics. On Wednesday the group will be guests of the Mississippi River Commission, also at Vicksburg, and will make an inspection of the channel revertment and levee con struction between Vicksburg and Angola, La.
