 Enlisted Reserve Corps
 The accredited colleges and universities of the United States have been called upon to parti- cipate in the program for the voluntary enlistment of college students in the Enlisted Reserve Corps. The call IS for 30,000 first year men, 57,000 second-year men, and 4l,000 third-year men. The quotas assigned To the Uni versity of Alaska are 28 first year men, 20 second-year men. l 22 third-year men and 2l seniors. The plan provides for the enlist ment of male students over l3 at enlistment and under 45 al time of graduation. who can meet physical requirements for en- i trance to Officer Candidate Schools in the Enlisted Reserve Corps. During the next school year students of all classes may be enlisted; in future years only incoming freshmen will be elg- ible.
 Enlisted freshmen and sopho- mores who qualify by exanma- ton taken prior to the end of the sophomore year, and those who originally enlisted as jun iorS or seniors, will be permit ted to continue their college course until graduation if SatIs- factory college standing Is main tained and if exingencies of the Service permit. Upon gradua- ton from college, those who have taken the ROTC advanced course, will be commissioned; others will be ordered to active duty and will be commissioned upon graduation from an Officer Candidate School. Enlisted fresh men, and Sophomores who do not qualify by examination taken prior to the end of the sOpho- more year, and all those who do not maintain satisfactory college standing, will be ordered to ac- tive duty in an enlisted status provided they have no valid req son for deferment.
 Enlistments
 Enlistments under this plan can be made in any of the fol- lowing branches: Army, Navy, Naval Aviation, Marine Corps, , and Army Air Forces. Since ROTC is compulsory upon all physically qualified male stu dents of first and second year standing at the University of AL aska, all enlistments of these classes will be in the Army En- listed Reserve Corps. Students who desire to enter other serVic- es may signify their intention at , the time of enlistment, and, sub ? ject to passing successfully the l examination near the close of l their sophomore year, will be dls

Air Battleship Makes Successful Test Flight
New Epoch In Commercial And Military Aviation
 Is Opened
Establishes New Concept of Bulk
lCincinnati Enquirer)

kCnSlnndJl EnqulFer)
 A new epoch in both military and commercial aviation was op ened the other day when the 70-ton flying boat Mars lifted its bulk from the chop of Chesa- peake Bay and scared into the air in seemingly effortless flight It was the first successful test flight of the so-called "battleship of the air The original test was marred by the breaking of a pro peller blade, which caused one of the flying ships four 2,000- horsepower engines to shake out of its nacelle.

charged from the Army Enlisted Reserve Corps and enlisted in the branch of their choice En- listments in the Naval Aviation and Army Air Forces will be de pendent upon meeting the phys ical, educational and citizenship requirements of those branches.
 Students desiring to take ad- vantage of this plan should se- cure birth certificates, consent of parents if minor, proof of cit i2enship if not native born, and other papers necessary to accom- plish enlistment.
 Pledged To Help
 The Secretary of War and the Secretary of the Navy have ag- reed upon the program for the enlistment of college students in the Enlisted Reserve Corps. Ev- cry facility of the University of Alaska is pledged to help our Ma ton and our Allies win this war. The Nation must have an assured supply of men trained for ser vice in technical fields.
 The call comes to undergrad uate college men in Alaska. If further information is required write at once to Registrar, Uni Versity of Alaska, College, Al aska.

of the flying ships four 2,000- horsepower engines to shake out of it's nacelle
 Equal to 14-ROOm House
 Size IS no Oddity in flying boats, because the various Clip per planes which have been in transoceanic service for a num- Der of years have not been small craft, but the Mars establishes a new concept of bulk, Its wing span is 200 feet, or tWo- thirds the length of a football field. Its propellers are the largest in the world, measuring l76 feet -- as high as the second floor of the average house. And to carry this comparison q little further, the cubic content of the hull alone exclusive of the wings-is equal to that of a fourteen room house. As Much Gas As A Railroad Car
 The Mars can carry as much gasoline as a railroad tank car, and in use as a military trans port could carry l50 fully armed soldiers on a nonstop flight to Europe and return. The navy has not disclosed to what use the Mars or the XPB2M-l-will be put, but 1t is indicated that ii will be used for emergency trans port and fast shipment of crit ical freight.
 Cannot Be Shot Down
 The very size of the flying boat seemingly would make il an easy target for attack Gas was said about the early United States Army Flying Fortresses). But, as in the case of the latter, hitting and disabling are two different things. The Flying Foruesses have demonstrated an ability to withstand a fearful amount of enemy fire, and Glenn L. Martin, designer and builder of the Mars says that she cannot be shot down unless her wings are lit- orally shot off"
 Five Years In Building
 The Mars has been five years in the designing and building. MT. Martin says that he has de- signed a plane twice the size of the Mars, but that the emphasis now will be on getting the TO- ton craft into production The designer says that they can be produced at the rate of one month. But, he indicated, deliv- cries cannot start for two years. That. however, is an estimate likely to be radically revised as America appreciates the uses of these flying battleships.
