Baldwin-Wallace College succumbed to the modern flying bug last fall. The C.A.A. ICivil Aeronautics Authorityi Training Course was set up on the campus and our first class of student pilots took to the air. An exhaustive physical and mental examination was given to all applicantHnly a small group surviving to take the course. This selective group went through a rigid ground school course of seventy-two hours, given by members of the faculty. All flight instruction was handled by Major Barnhill at Cleveland Airport. The college is giving two hours credit for this course. Each successful parti- cipant will eventually hold a private pilotts ficense. Nine boys and one girl are enrolled in this first class. Burke Frees had the honor of being the first student to solo. The B-W class was fortunate to be able to train in a new Stinson-i 05.

24 HlPHH SIGITIH PHI.. Alpha Mu Chapter of Alpha Sigma Phi saw its beginning on the campus of German Wallace College in 1883 in the form of the Goethe Society. in 1925 this same organization was incorporated as a fraternity with the name of Gamma Lambda Sigmo. In 1926 it was accepted as Mu Chapter of the national fraternity, Phi Pi Phi. Today the merging of Phi Pi Phi with Alpha Sigma Phi brings Alpha Mu Chapter of the latter to the campus. The year-off to o Hying start by holding a bung-up rush dance at the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce Boilroern. Next, a stag smoker at which the tending features were up- pearances of several of the Cleveland Roms; Pro football team. Then, to round out the year, two Bob Suhr productions, both held at the house: first, a Bum's Dance; second, a Christmas Kidis Party. Highlights of the Kid's Party were: the short dresses worn by the girls, and the ten minutes it took someone to fix the main fuse. Brother Bomgurdner whipped up several serenades that were appreciated by the girls at Emma Long. Next, we properly beat it out at our midwinter dance, again at the Lakewood Chamber of Com- merce Ballroom. Of course all this had an effect on the average grades of the fraternity, by giving us the highest fraternity point average. Wait a minuteethere goes the fuse again! So 'mid soft candlelight, quiet cussini, and pleasant thoughts of the coming spring formal, We leave Alpha Sigma Phi, nature's IPi wonder spot of the B-W campus.
