'Y' Q U fa like most things that grow into some consequence our Navy prograiii had a small beginning. In peace times there was only the Civil Pilots Training course whigh had as its purpose to teach civilians to fly and to en- able then to receive pilot's licenses. lt was carried on in collaboration with the Munici- pal Airport.

JUHN XAN said, The first commandment is 'Subdue the earth'. By studying chemistry we learn to control and subdue the elements of the earth and thus carry out God's first command and fulfill his purpose for man on earth , making his science his religion and his religion his science, because of all these things and more, we lovingly dedicate this Entry Nous to Dr. Xan.
