Connecticut Is a great State for outsiders. Our industrial plants fall over themselves to engage help arriving at the employment bin in out-of-state cars. Our in stitutions pass over good materia at home and fetch in improved personnel from distant placesl Even the slightly battered "Merit System is busy waiving the resi- dentiaI requirements for certaira advertised exams such as sOciaT worker and other technicians.
 The State of Connecticut is something like the higher conn mand of the A. r. F. When tho ground troops complained that protection overhead wns lacking and that the enemy planes had their way with horse and fool and guns, some brass hat alway assured us that Tank planes wer busy over enemy territory spread ing havoc and great destruction They were-both of them. Perhaps our folks are over the State line5 making raid on the good jobe in other territory, too.

 MANY BUILDINGS
 WERE UNTOUCHED ,
 But though the damage was great, and trying to calculate the extent in dollars was impossible, 1t could have been much worse. Because in- terspersed with this damage were vast areas untouched by German bombs. In fact, so glaringly big were some of the buildings as they loom- ed clear in the moonlight you won- dered how enemy bombers had missed them and hit less apparent targets.
 But just then German plane swooped low and dropped a flare. Later on its return from central London, 1t would release high ex- plosive, providing that the flare had landed on wooden rooftop and had succeeded in starting Q beacon fire.
 The Commanding Officer said: Here's where you see some real marksmanship." But before the words were out of his mouth the Lewis gun on the stern opened up. Each fifth bullet was 8 tracer, and you colud follow their course as they traced & staccato white pattern through the black sky to the flare, hanging about seven thousand feet above a group of warehouses on the east bank of the Thames.
 Then suddenly, from concealed positions up and down the river in that area, Lewis guns opened up. Every gunner seemed to be trying to get that flare first. It was the little Yorkshireman and his mate in the stern, though, who put 1t out. A direct hit, after missing 1t by inches, did the trick. OUTFIT ORGANIZED

 It was the silence which imme- diately followed that was the sur- prise. One minute there was a chat tering barrage and the next deafen- ing silence. And if you hadn't seen all those gus in action you'd have swore there was not Q soldier or gun within ten miles of che place.
 The young commanding Officer, who formerly had been with the Irish Channel mine sweepers, told how this patrol was first organized. After Dunkirk it was, when every

knowledge of this countrys actual military
strength, what must be done to increase 1t and
why British victory is vital to Americas safety.
Non-mlitary students tend to be more pessi-
mistic about Brtains chance of victory and Ger
many's invincibilty, and they are more apt to
absorb the no-danger-to- America propaganda re-
leased by the Axis powers.
This year approximately one-haf of the gradu-
ating class of Georgia Tech have received reserve
commissions and have either been called to active
duty or expect to be called into service very soon.
Other graduates who will not receive commissions
and have not already been drafted are taking their
chances on being deferred from military service
and have accepted positions in civil life. 1t would
thus appear that their military training is of more
immediate value to most of the graduates than Is
their formal education.
What the final effects of this war will be, or
what we can expect during the next few years
none can say. Most Of us look forward to several
years of continued strife before any kind of peace
is forthcoming. We hope and believe that whatever
effect this may have on the political, economic
and social life of the world there will still be as
great a need for the educated man then as there
is now.
At any rate the future should be anything but
boring For those who had laid out and anticipated
a life neatly planned and we'll ordered, the next
few years can be very demoralizng. But for those
who do not mind uncertainty and continued
change, the future should be filled with opportun-
ity

Whether the British ship
which took the IS to Capetown
had picked them up In response
to any such wireless notification
was not at once known.
The Robin Moor. headed for
Capetown with what Washing
ton held to be q non-contraband
cargo, was halted by the wink
ing lights of the U-boat's blinker
signal at 6 o'clock, Greenwich
time, May 21.
The position was south of the
Cape Verde Islands. in the At
lantic about midway between
Brazil and West Africa. She car
ried eight passengers, four of
whom were Americans. All four
were among the group reported
reaching Capetown.

ship was making the request and
was answered.:

The freighter then lowered
a lifeboat in charge of the
chief officer, who was rowed
about a mile and a half to the
submarine. He carried no ships
papers but identified the Ameri-
can vessel for the submarine
commander.
VISITED U.BOAT
The chief officer went into the
submarine, conferred with the
commander and was given 20
minutes for crew and passengers
to abandon ship. Upon request,
this time was extended to half
hour from the time the lifeboat
got back to the Robin Moor.

This years college graduate is in a position en-
tirey different from that of the graduates OF the
past ten years. The problem of job-finding no
longer exists. There are now more offers OF Jobs
than there arc men to fill them. But most OF the
graduates will receive little benefit from this con-
dition, for they must spend the next year and
very probably the next few years in uniform.
These thousands of ex-students, like other
citizens are very concerned over how the present
world crisis will affect their lives. Most of them
will 60 directly from college into the army or navy
leaving no job to return to upon their demobiliza-
ton. Those with specialized training-the scien-
lists and professional men-have the added prob
lem of retaining their skill without ever having
had the opportunity of putting it into practise.
STRONGLY BEHIND DEFENSE PROGRAM
The attitude of the college student toward Sc
lective service and other items of the defense pro-
gram has been put in false light through demon
STATIONS staged by a few radical organizations
falsely claiming to represent student opinion. The
great majority of students are Fundamentally IN
favor of the defense program, and they are at
tempting to work out their personal problems in
dividually as we'll they can.
There is marked variance of opinion between
military and non-miltary students as to what the
foreign policy of the United States should be-
Those who have received military instruction are
usually better informed regarding this country
relation to the European war. They have better
