The question of speeding and campus traffic violations will probably be brought up before the Men's Student Council at the regular meeting to

St. Louis, Feb. 15.—A quiet converse shouldered here today be between the pioneering spirit of Cail Charles A. Lindbergh and those seek to curtail his future flying activities.

"I have no comment to make until our personal from Secretary Lloyd Austin leaves, and Secretary late yesterday, following his return from a three hour welcome home visit."

"I may do some more experimenta-
flying later, but on the whole I do not
consider aviation in the experimental
tissue.
"I do not consider the flying I have
lone recently in the nature of stunt
lying, but rather as carefully planned
entures.
