A ground-pulse navigation unit
and an air-surveillance tower now
undergoing tests will enable plane

Service During War
Was Not Wasted,
Test Center Says
NEW YORK —OP)— Most veter
ane are better prepared to succeed
in their jobs because of their mill- j
tary experiences, the New York 1
University testing and advisement
center announced.
Dr. W. D. Gleen, director of the
center, said tests and guidance '
fiven to 12,500 veterans and a large
number of civilians proved that
the veteran was in error In con
sidering service time as time lost.
"In reality,” he said, "it probably
has pulled him out of a civilian rut,
given him some kind of education
or training, or given him self-con
findence, initiative and maturity.”

1947 Freshman May
Be Nervous But He
Is A Solid Citizen
NEW ORLEANS — i© — Today’s
college freshman may crink more
ccffee than his dad did. And he
may be a little more neivous than
the first-year student of a decade
ago.
But the freshman of today is in
no danger of becoming a physical
wreck of psychoneurotic than his
grandad was.
Dr. Lloyd J. Kuhn, director of
student health at Tular.e Univer
sity, has studied the life and habits
of the young men. He has decided
they are solid citizens.
Kuhn says the chief difference
between the freshman of today and
20 years* ago is that “they are com
in S to school a little younger and
slimmer," and possibly a bit more
nervous.
