Forster Given
History Award
Dr. Kent Forster, professor of
European history, has been
awarded a lectureship in history
at the University of Helsinki, Fin
land, under the Fulbright Act.
He will be in residence at Hel
sinki during the academic year
1956-57, contributing to the Ful
bright American Studies Program
with offerings in American His
tory.
Dr. Forster joined the Univer
sity faculty in 1941. He has spent
time in Europe. accompanying
the University's Summer Semi
nars there in 1940, 1950, and
1952. He is currently a member

What's doing
at Pratt & Whitney
Aircraft
Today's leadership . . . a
reflection of policies established
in aviation's infancy
Back in The Roaring Twenties, the magic dream pictured Ameri
can families someday using the light personal airplane as freely as
the family car. Among the realists, however, was a handful of men
who were unshakable in their conviction that the real future of
aviation lay with bigger aircraft, higher speeds, greater ranges—
all possible only through engines of higher power and more relia
bility than those of that era.
In the spring of 1925, six of these men of vision founded a
company in Hartford to undertake the development of a new air
craft engine—an air-cooled type. The year's end heralded their
first success—Pratt & Whitney Aircraft's "Wasp".
This talented group of men continued to improve their power
plant designs, developing engines of steadily mounting power that
operated efficiently and dependably_ They contributed much to
Aviation's progress —so much so that currently three-quarters of
the world's commercial airliners and many of our nation's first line
military aircraft are P & W A-powered.
Today's P & W A powerplant designs are supported by the
very finest research facilities and equipment, and a technical staff
that is continually being strengthened. That nucleus of six men has
grown into one of the world's leading engineering organizations.
Yet to this very day, engineering achievement at Pratt & Whitney
Aircraft is guided by its founders' simple policy ... the best air
planes can be designed only around the best engines.

Originates in Studio
The course, taught by *Dr. R.
Wallace Brewster, professor of po
litical science, originated the first
four weeks of classes in the studio
without a student audience. His
lectures were aided with pictures,
chairs and blackboard work which
were easily seen on the TV screen.
L. P. Greenhill. associate direc
tor of the project, said that many
things contribute to these prefer
ences. They may include attitude
toward the course, use of visual
aids, the instructor's performance
on television, and atmosphere of
the classrooms.
The primary interest of the pro
ject this semester, Greenhill said,
is that of adapting courses to
