National Air Transport Is the contract operator for airmail between New York and Chicago, carrying passengers between these two cities as well as between Chicago and Dallas.

Boeing operates between Chicago and San Francisco; Pacific Air Transport between San Diego and Seattle, and Varney Air Lines between Pasco, Seattle and Salt Lake City, across the Rocky Mountains.

Dr. Denbigh said the girls' action in tabooing the fashion parade was to lend a note of more simplicity to the Class Day exercises. Several girls said it means the return of the "sweet, simple graduate" of the old-fashioned days when fashion parades were not mixed up with commencement week.
