SAFETY COUNCIL NOTES

What 1t Is
The Delaware Safety Council is
the hub of the safety movement in
| Delaware. 1t is an association OF
organizations and individuals which
for twenty-three years has been
working to reduce the number and
seriousness of all kinds of acci-
dents. The Council is a coopera-
tive, non-profit association interest
ed in the developing of a safety
atmosphere in our business and
social activities which will tend to
reduce and prevent accidents.
Through education it seeks to DEM
onstrate that the safe way is the
right way and best way from the
standpoint not only of human salts
faction but of social efficiency and
economy.
What 1t Does
The purposeful endeavor of the
Safety Council i s demonstrated
through a practical program of
education that accidents do not
happen but are the result of some
one failing to think or act in
safe manner. The Delaware Safety
Councils specific task, therefore,
is to point out to the Delaware
people why they should avoid acci-
dents and how they can avoid them.
In other words, the Council is en-
deavoring to create safety con-
sciousness in our citizenship.
This has been the basis of the
Councils activities since its Or
ganization in 1919.
What Ii Needs
Briefly and simply this - the
moral support of every citizen of
the State of Delaware and the fl
nancial aid of everyone who can
afford to support this vital work.
Do your part and put the Della
ware Safety Council at the top of
the list of the organizations of this
type and help to promote safety in
every industrial plant, in every
nome, and on every street and
in the State of Delaware.

ALL UNIVERSITY MEN WILL BE
IN ARMY BY NEXT SPRING
toontInued from FIrst Pagel

N0N@@N~~@AN~
In addition, the Army probabl!
will detail to the university somt
soldiers who have outstanding rec
ords but who lack college training
Many factors are expected to en-
ter into the Army's decision as tc
continuing or interrupting a stu
dents college studies, DR.. Hullihen
said His past record at the uni
versity, and examinations to be CIV
en- are likely to be used as a guide
in determining whether a student is
to enter service Immediately or to
stay at the college.
Drilling May Be Light
In either event, DR.. Hullihen en-
phasized, the program calls for ev-
cry male student who is physically
fit to go into the armed forces. They
are expected to wear Army uni
forms, but actual drilling probably
will be at a minimum.
/ Men who are not eligible for the
Army because of any disability may
continue in the university as civil
lians, while the course of study at
Women's College will continue as in
the past.
Anticipation of the program is
the motivation for a year-round
classroom schedule that now is be-
ing mapped, DR.. Hullihen explain
ed. The university now operates on
an accelerated schedule for 10
months of the year, with longer
classroom and laboratory periods
providing as much study time as
other colleges provide in eleven
months.
Since most of the men students
are to be enlisted, and will be on
Army pay, DR.. Hullihen said, it
would be impossible for them to be
given a two-month summer vaca-
tion that the university would pro-
vide. They must be on constant SER
vice, and so the university will
adopt the Army's program for
classes on a 12-month basis.
Women's College will follow that
schedule also.
When graduation will be held un-
der the new plan has not been
decided, DR.. Hullihen said. Under
the present plan, the June, 1943,
class was to have been graduated
in March, and the June, 1914, class
next December.
At a College Hour meeting this
week the president chided the stu
dents for helping to circulate ru-
mors concerning the future of the
Is and 19-year-old drafted men.
mot even the assistant secretar-
les of the War and Navy Depart
ments are able to make statement
on that yet" he told the students,
so you are very foolish to believe
a story someone told you ne heard"
