and Old . . . Air cadets are valuable G.I. substitutes for our Butler men who are now in the various branches of the armed forces. These air cadets have filled and refilled the shoes of our college Joe ' s many times as they have come and gone from our Fair- view scene. The cadets have been fine strolling company for those little v alks around the campus and down by the old canal. They have helped to make our school dances and mixers possible. Their band, the Kay- dets, have given out with some swell music to liven up our jive sessions. The marching, singing columns have be- come a real port of our everyday lives. The air cadets have adopted our college as their very o n and can sing the Butler War Song with as much gusto as any Butlerite. All in all they have helped to make our school year a happy one.

The school cafeteria was the scene of many jolly times during the year when the Air Corps dances were going full swing. These dances were sponsored by the A.W.S. and were held monthly. They served to introduce the air cadets to Butler and incidently the coeds! Jell hHall would hove seemed quite bare this year without a poster advertising one of our various drives to help with the war effort. The Book for a Yank drive urged the students to bring books for American boys in German and Japanese prison camps. Other campaigns were for blood donors, the Community Fund, Red Cross, scrap, and war bonds.
