Children Al Rec Hall Hinder Military Program Local parents were urged today by Dean Carl P. Schott to keep their children away from Recrea tion Hall at all other times when no special events are taking place. The dean revealed that many of the children are a source of con stant nuisance and as such are im peding the progress of the ex tremely busy military program in Recreation Hall. "We must all remember," he said, "that Recreation Hall is to all intents and purposes a military reservation - and that civilians should be there for stated pur poses only." Those in charge have been pa tient with the .intrusion of the youngsters, Dean Schott said, and warned that if the situation does not improve, policing measures will have to be adopted.

Kinney, formerly professor of chemistry at the Uni versity of Utah, has been appoint ed professor of fuel technology in the School of Mineral Industries at the College, according to an an nouncement by President Ralph D. Hetzel. Dr. Kinney received his under graduate training in chemical technology at lowa State Univer sity, and did his graduate work in organic chemistry at Harvard un der the late Professor E. P. Kohler, receiving his Ph.D. degree there in 1925. The same .year he joined the chemistry department at the Uni versity of Utah as an instructor, and was successively advanced to the position of professor of chem istry. While at Utah, he published about 30 research papers on vari ous phases of organic chemistry and fuel technology. Dr. Kinney has also done con-. siderable work on the cracking of Utah coal tar oils and tar acids. He served as a member of the execu tive committee of the Utah Con servation and Research Founda tion which investigated the low temperature carbonization of Utah coals. In addition to teaching courses in fuel technology, Dr. Kinney will be in charge of the research pro gram at the College on the non fuel' uses of bituminous' coal. Dye stuffs,' wood stains, carbon blacks, and plastics have been made from coal, and further research is need ed in order to expand this field of coal technology. Air Corps Instructor (Continued from Page One) tees may apply for ASTP if they achieve a score of 115 or better on the Army General Classification Test, which will be given at the first reception center. Lt. Weaver, of*the 3rd Service. Command, sug-. gests that such students remain in their status quo until notifica tion of complete instructions which will be issued shortly. • Naval Aviation is still open for the same age group as the Army Air Corps, but students. must go to Philadelphia for all interviews and examinations. The date of call to active duty for successful candidates, though still uncer tain, will probably come between now and next March. Some of these boys will be appointed to the V-12 program for at least 2 semesters, while others will go di rectly to Pre-Flight School. Probable date for the next V -12 and A-12 examinations is sometime in November, which will permit qualified applicants to enter these programs for assign ment in March. Those who took the examination •in April were . enlisted about June 1 and assign ed to college in July. Scores of the November test will probably be announced in December with interviews scheduled for January, and February. Applicants for Ma rines will enter through the V-12 program. The only category still open to upperclassmen is SV-7 and is for engineering students only. The vision requirement for this class is 12/20 uncorrected, 20/20 cor rected, although, in exceptional cases, those with lower vision acuity may be accepted. General service is still open to men up to 28 years of age with 2 terms of college mathematics and 18/20 eyes. Ski Troops and Mountain Troops have reopened and are soliciting applicants. Interested selectees and ERC enliistees may secure applications from Gal braith and, if accepted, may be transferred to Ski Troops upon induction or call to active duty. THE COLLEGIAN 3oerlin Announces New FHm Library, Projection Service On the recommendation of its Committee on Audio-visual Aids, the College announces a new Film Library and Projection Service which will meet both campus and off-campus needs under the joint sponsorship and supervision of Central Extension and the College Library with Irving C. Boerlin in charge. The acquisition of film will include gifts, purchases, loans, denosits, and rentals. Six hundred and sixty films on approximately 300 subjects are now on file in the Film Library, Room 9, .Central Li brary, and are available for lend ing. It is expected that College de partments as they realize the value and availability of the Film Library and Projection Service will make increasing use of it and will gradually order films in their own fields through funds provided by the College, in much the same way-as library books are now ob tained. If the local Film Library proves inadequate, other' rental film serv ices will be consulted. Inasmuch as films are more expensive than books, it is essential that purchase of films receive the approval of the departments and schools con cerned, the librarian of the Col lege, and the film executive. Sim ilar approval will also apply to films otherwise obtained. It is hoped that, as the film service de velops, College departments may see fit to deposit film now in their possession in the Film Library and add to its usefulness. One College department has already deposited 19 such films.. Films will be serv iced by the Film,,Library . staff. Projection service' has thus far been offered under separate or ganization for ,campus. service , and off-campus service, arid union in a joint program should more such service man.* times more effective. Applications for purchase of film for the Audio-visual Aids Li brary should be addressed to the College librarian. Requests for projection service or for information concerning available films should be directed to the Film Library, Central Li brary Building. Chance Vaught Aircraft interviews Students Engineering students will have an opportunity to be interviewed by Mr. Charles Garratt, of Chance Vought Aircraft Company, Mon day, according . to Miss Charlotte E.
