Memorial Mass Hop Cancelled:
The plans for over so Civil Air

World War II. Sunday was also
the 18th anniversary of the estab-
lishment of the first CAP anti

both and Atlantic City, N. J.
Col. Louisa S. Morse, the ma
tiOn's only women CAP wing COM

whether the memorial flight would
take place at another date. The
colonel is commander of CAPS
Delaware Wing.
CAPS Functions:
The Civil Air Patrol is chartered
by the Federal Government as a
non-prOfit organization devoted to

tiOn in all its phases. It organizes
public spirited, air-minded Ameri-
can citizens into a volunteer, semi

equipped to assist in meeting local

forming volunteer missing-aircraft
search and rescue missions and
other emergency operations. 1t also
contributes to special projects such
as air marking, airport develop
ment, survey of dangerous flying
areas, survey and marking Of emer-
gency landing fields and the pro-
motion of private flying.
How To Join Civil Air Petrol:

Air Patrol welcomes nOn-fying
personnel who are interested in
aviation, as well as experienced

Howard Univ.
Announces
Transfer OF
Stowe Hall To
Men Students

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Howard
University officials announced to-
day that Lucy Diggs Slowe Hall,
it's off-campus dormitory for wo-
men, at 1919 Third Street, NV,
will be transferred to male occu-
pancy beginning in September.
The announcement followed a
meeting of the executive commit
tee of the University's Board of
Trustees where the action was
voted.
Stowe Hall, which can accommo-
date 321 residents, is currently oc-
cupied by female graduate and
professional students at the Uni
versity and other women, princi-
pally employees of Freedman's
Hospital and the Federal Govern
nlent. The occupants have been
asked to vacate the building by
August 31st.
According to DR.. Mordecai W.
Johnson, president of the Univers-
ity, the building construction pro-
gram currently underway at How
ard has made the transfer of Stowe
Hall facilities to men necessary
Clarke Hall, one of the two perma-
nent dormitories for men on the
Howard campus, is scheduled to be
razed this year to make room for
new buildings. With the discon.
tinuance of use of two other TEN.
porary structures built in 1916
only one on-campus dormitory will
be available to Towards 1000 un.
dergraduate male students, the
president said.
There is no other way of &C.
commodating the male students
thus displaced except by using
Stowe Hall as a mans dormitory,
the president declared.
Stowe Hall is one of two war.
time government dormitories trans
ferred to Howard by the Defense
Homes Corporation in 1913. The
other building, George Washington
Carver Hall, at 211 Elm Street
NV, has been occupied by male
graduate and professional students
since 1863.

The action became necessary af-
ter the Prince Edward Board of

budget which contained no funds

of Supervisors acted a few hours
after the Supreme Courts desegre-

Prince Edward, located in south

University required that their ia
cilities be available to government
workers through 1852, according to
DR.. Johnson. Although there has
been need for the space occupied
by non-students, the University
has permitted them to stay on for
the past three years, he said.
"The necessitous action in the
interest of our undergraduate male
students is facilitated by the fact
that there have been recent ex-
pansions in the housing accommo-
dations in the Washington area
available to employed women, a.
well as in the University dormi-
tories for women Students" DR..
