ROLLINS (continued) Instructor Wilson Mills goes over final details before petite Carl Good takes-off. C. A. A. PROGRAM When the United States government decided upon training collegians in the art of flying, Rollins College was one of the first educational institutions in which this program was established. Aided admirably by good flying weather because of its climate, and one of the best landing fields and instruc- tion schools in the south in local Or- lando Airport, Rollins made a grand start in this new venture last fall with 40 student pilots. The course was an extensive one. Ground school work was held three nights a week, while the students prac- ticed their flying during the day. By mid-winter, all students had soloed, and were learning technical turns and complicated maneuvers.

Gypsy Fiesta is annual fun festival for Rollins and Central Florida friends. Staged each year by the Rollins Women ' s Associat : on, the money raised from all the side shows, dinner at Beanery, concession stands is used for some needed addition to Rollins. Petty games of chance, like that pictured above, are easy means of money-raising. This year a new record was set when over $1,000 was obtained, although rain drove most of the concessions inside of Recreational Hall.
