PSYCHOLOGISTS AID GOVERNMENT.

A plan has been formed by which certain members of the Psychology Department of the University will carry out for the Government a series of tests on prospective army and navy aviators. The work, which will be under the direction of Dr. E. H. Burtt, of the psychology staff of the University, will be carried on in connection with the United States Aviation Corps, and will have as its main object the establishment of data upon which to base future examinations.

In an interview with a CRIMSON reporter, Dr. Burtt stated that he could not divulge the exact nature of the experiments to be carried out, as he and his associates were doing Government work, which was to be kept secret. He added that the men engaged in making the experiments might be commissioned by the Government within a few months to devote all of their time to the work.
