Austin, co-editor of The Battalion, and seconded by Junior Class Pres ident T. B. Fields. Two Problems The subcommittee report pre sented two problems which must be solved. These are (1) students feel censored by their fellow stu dents if they go to an instructor for help and (2) student and in structors do not have a close enough relationship. Four suggestions offered to cure both problems were: • Cadet officers should encour age underclassmen to become bet ter acquainted with instructors and go to them for help. ® Each student in the unit should be allowed to ask a profes sor over each week to visit his dormitory and eat the evening meal in the dining hall. • Stronger emphasis should be placed on departmental coffees. © Assign students to faculty members, who will act as individ ual counselors for this group. Earlier, the SLC approved Dec. 17 as the date for the second an nual 12th Man Football Bowl game.

College Station’s airline flights have been reduced from six to two per day, following an order by the Civil Aero nautics Board to Pioneer Airlines. Criticized for buying new Pacemaker planes to replace the pre-war DC-3’s and ordered to reduce service to the 21 cities in Texas and New Mexico, Pioneer President General Robert J. Smith announced the airline’s action. “We are grievously shocked that the Civil Aeronautics Board in Washington has declared that Pioneer must provide a second class service to the people on its 21-city system in Texas and New Mexico,” Smith said. “This new and latest edict from the board can mean -♦•orie thing—the board would have Pioneer be a second class ariline Bloodmobile Unit Sets Goal At 200 Pints Two hundred pints of blood will be the goal of the South east Texas Bloodmobile Unit’s second visit to the campus, March 24. More than 200 pints were don ated at the Bloodmobile’s first visit, Dec. 17. First sergeants have been given donor forms for distribution to their units. Anyone between the ages of 21 and 59 may donate. Donors between the ages of 18 and 21 must have the consent of their family.

Trans-Texas wants to make College Station a stop for flights from Austin to Tyler and from Austin to Beaumont. The CAB hearing in Washing, ton D. C. last Thursday was to determine whether or not there is need for additional air service here. • Smith said that he was “both shocked and stunned” that the board had placed “an iron curtain on the service Pioneer can render to the people of Texas and New Mexico.” He said that the board’s trial examiner had reported to the board that Pioneer’s change of aii’craft had met “the standards of honest economical and effici ent management” but had evident ly set aside this finding “as if to punish Pioneer for its progi’ess.” Must Reduce Service As a result of the order, Pioneer must reduce sexvice, dismiss many of the company’s 450 pei’sonnel, stop purchases, study possible sus pension of other services and con sider sale of Pacemaker planes. Flight 45, departing Easter-wood Airport at 3:53 p. m. for Dallas, and Flight 64, departing at 8:40 p. m. for Houston are the only two flights leaving College Station daily, since the cut. Two other flights to Houston, one to Dallas and one to Austin have been can celled. College Station Postmaster, T. O. Walton, said yesterday that he had heard nothing about the cut. It is not known exactly how the action will affect local air mail service, he said, but it cer tainly will be affected. FSA Executive Board Okeys $40,000 Budget The Former Students Associa- lection.
