The two Boiling Field "officer- -pri-
Yates" are among many Reserve Off
GERS who now serve as enlisted men in
the Regular Army. OF the "a enlisted
pilots now on duty in the Army Air
Corps, every one holds commission
in the Air Reserve and has had active
duty as an officer.
One of the best-known enlisted
officers" is John Bishop, who, with
Lieut.. Wilfred j. Paul. piloted Army
balloon No. to victory in the ma
tional elimination balloon race in
1892, and later represented the United
States in international competition.
Bishop. who holds the Litchfield
Trophy jointly with Lieut.. Paul, is a
lieutenant in the Army Air Reserve,
but an enlisted man in the Regular
Army Air Corps, with the rating OF
master sergeant. He has flown in
national contests in both capacities.
Congress May Act.
AS in the case of Way and Hurst.
a number of the Reserve officers who
now are serving as enlisted men are
doing SO in the hope that they may be
given priority in examinations for
commissions in the Regular Army.
Congressional action probably will be
necessary to create vacancies in the
Regular service for which these men
may be candidates. it was pointed out.
In the meantime, Way, Hurst and
their comrade enlisted officers" oc-
cupy a strange position in the service.
They are alternately enlisted men and
officers as they fiuctuate between
Regular duty and the brief periods of
Reserve training. AS enlisted men,
they get no favors not shared by
their fellow enlisted men and they get
their full share of work.

~ YER at Boiling Field are two
4 chaps who just cannot keep
I out of the cir service-not
~ even if remaining in it has
meant sinking to the very bottom from
the once-proud position Of second
lieutenant.
Today, just like any other privates,
they go through the routine OF day
that is quite different from that they
knew before their wings moulted.
The two are John A. Way and Her
man Hurst. The War Department
lists them as ieutenants in the Air
Reserves, and as privates attached to
the active force at Boiling Field. They
still can hear the whine of propellers,
the roar of engines, and are identified
with all the sights, sounds and smells
of military aviation. Both are on flight
status and both are assigned to the
operations Office. That is not so bad,
and the pay of private is something.
Await Chance.
That, let it be said, is not the rea-
son why Pvts. (and Lieuts) Way and
Hurst are walking along the bottom
of the Air Corps after two years as
commissioned officers. They re-en-
listed in order to be on priority status
in the event examinations are held
for appointment of additional second
lieutenants in the Air Corps, Regular
Army. Priority usually is given Air
Corps enlisted personnel when such
openings occur.
Lieut.. Way, a native of Prague,
Okla, was graduated in 1881 by the
University of Oklahoma, with the de-
gree of bachelor of science. He was
graduated by the Advanced Flying
School, Kelly Field, Tex, February "A,
1888, specializing in pursuit aviation.
Commissioned second lieutenant in
the Air Corps Reserve, with the rat
ing of airplane pilot, Way was assigned
to active duty for two years as a flight
officer in the famous 1st Pursuit Group,
Selfridge Field, Mich. AS an enlisted
man, he now is helping out as safety
pilot in connection with the blind
flight training of Air Corps officers
at Boiling Field and in the War De-
partment.
Lieut.. Hurst won his wings and his
commission upon his graduation from
the Advanced Flying School in Oc-
tober, 1888, and completed his two
years of active service as an officer
pilot, last October, Less than month
later he applied at Boiling Field for
enlistment in the Air Corps and was
accepted November 6.
Eligible for Training.
Both Way and Hurst, serving as
enlisted men, are eligible for two
weeks of active-duty fight training
as commissioned officers each year,
provided funds are available for such
training.

juries to five persons when he
struck their car on highway II on

The accident occurred about
7::30 p. m. when an Iowa car was
sideswiped by the truck which
was travelling north. The side of
the car was smashed.
Occupants were taken to a
nearby farm for first aid and then
went on to Window, their desti-
nation.
Mrs. Sam G. Lowe, So, Of VIM
dom was most severely injured,
sustaining broken ribs, laceratins
of the face and a bad cut on her

ceived lacerations of the face,
bruises and are suffering from
shock. Ross Eckert, So, also Of
Carpenter, Iowa, suffered cuts
about the face.
Potato sacks which fell off the
truck led officers to believe that
the man had apparently sold a
load of potatoes recently. Over
shoes, an overcoat and other ar
ticles were also found at the
scene, some of them providing
clues to the drivers identity. A

Hundreds of hot dogs, scores of
sticky candied apples lots of rides
on department store elevators and
what they termed "peskulators"
were apparently much more i'm
portant and pleasurable to % Boy
Scouts from Redwood Falls than
the Minneapolis-Texas football
game which they were taken to
Minneapolis to see Saturday.
The boys were guests of the
University with 1000 other
Scouts from Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin, and South Dakota.
"Holy Cow, the hot dogs!" was
about the only statement return
ing scouts would make to the
press, although they admitted the
game was swell" Chaperons and
drivers, however were willing to
talk, describing the furor of try
ing to round up their charges in
time for the game at which the
boys were anything but mute.
Cheer leaders unfortunate enough
to have positions in front of
Scouts sections were showered
with sticks from the devoured ap-
Piles. Previously Dayton's eleva-
tor operators had been surprised
to see several youthful passengers
taking the same trip to the top
floor and down again without any
apparent purpose except that of
enjoyment. The "pesculator" at
another store also proved a thrill.
