This point was emphasized by Frank Mitchell, Cessna Aircraft's Air Age education supervisor in a speech last night before the KU chapter of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.
"THE POSITION OF general aviation is in the cradle, it hasn't even begun to develop," young Mitchell said. In speaking of general aviation, Mitchell meant all "flying activity in the United States with the exception of the commercial airlines."

"Sixty-one years ago, the high speed flying record was held by the canvasback duck, the high altitude record by the bald eagle. The air was free from airplanes.
"The aviation industry is still in the cradle and Kansas is right in the middle of it. Over 70 per cent of the world's airplanes are built in Kansas." Mitchell said.
"This industry accounts for 10 per cent of the state's income." Mitchell said. Mitchell expressed optimism for the continued growth of general aviation in the state and throughout America.
KU Student Nurses Plan Variety Show
The student nurses at the KU Medical Center have their own Rock Chalk Revue called Caduceus Capers. "The Vat and I" or "How to Have Purple Feet and Love Every Minute of It" is the title of the 13th annual production of Caduceus Capers, to be presented at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday in Battenfeld Auditorium at KUMC.
The proceeds of Caduceus Capers will be used to send student nurses to state, national and international nursing conventions.
"We are the only people in the world who spend more on wants than needs. Personal disposable income (the money that is burning a hole in your pocket) has increased since 1954. Since the major consideration in buying an airplane is cost, we feel that there will be much more of a market for these planes."
MITCHELL SAID the fastest growing market in general aviation was the airplane bought for personal pleasure. At the present, most planes are bought for business. They are either privately owned by the small businessman or farmer or owned by a company whose executives use the airplanes.
Mitchell gave three ways in which people are being encouraged to take up flying. "Start more people, start them younger, and retain them by making it economically feasible."
Asked if he thought a "Volkswagen of airplanes" would be built within the next 10 years. Mitchell said, "No. With breakthroughs in fabrication of airplanes though, we will be able to turn them out in volume as the automobile manufacturers are doing now. When we are able to do this, the price will go down."
MITCHELL SAID there has been talk of establishing a state aeronautical authority who would coordinate and assist in making the industry better understood. His position would be financed by the tax collected from aviation gasoline.
MITCHELL CONCLUDED by saying the potential market for aircraft of this type is great. "If we could only capture 10 per cent of the available market instead of the three per cent we have now.
"New pilots are motivated by early interests and associations, by friends and relatives, and by the excitement offered by flying. Price is still the greatest problem. The average age for new pilots is 31; the average age of a person who buys an airplane is 43, and his average income is $22,500 a year."
There is a possibility of becoming infected with the Sports Car fever! The SP fever will doom you to years of pleasure and excitement. If you are brave and full of red blood, bring that great mass of Detroit Iron in and become infected with a happy little Sports car.

In the opinion of the president or the Civil Rights Council, Neil Stone, Shawnee Mission freshman, further demonstrations such as the one staged last week will prove nothing.
Lawrence, Kans.
CRC To Consider Further Protests
"This demonstration did not effectively arouse students and administrative action." Stone continued. "Student action can be interpreted by the number of supporters. Administrative action is termed as an official proclamation in alliance with demands."
A special meeting of the CRC has been called for 7:30 p.m. Sunday in the Kansas Union to consider the proposals of the committee.
A meeting for those interested in chaperoning a bus tour this summer sponsored by American Field Service will be held at 7 p.m. tonight in the Kansas Union. Applicants must be 21 years old and U.S. citizens.
A three-man committee was organized last night to plan for further action by the CRC with respect to future demonstrations. The committee will be headed by Stone.
Chaperones To Meet
Officials to Assess Cars March 12 in Union Lobby
Students with cars on campus who have not been contacted yet by the Douglas County Assessor's office can register their car March 12, in the main lobby of the Kansas Union.
Darwin Rogers, Douglas County assessor, said that two deputy assessors will be there from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Rogers said that the law calls for the payment of this tax to the county in which the car is located on or before Jan. 1.
Both in-state and out-of-state students should have their cars assessed if they have not already done so. The out-of-state students will possibly pay a double personal property tax unless their home state grants them a waiver.
Rogers said that his office will notify the assessors in the home county of each in-state student who has also been assessed there for payment of the Kansas personal property tax. In-state students will not pay double.
"Those students we have already
