Greene Says Army
Will Improve
Tells of experiences a
training camp

Corstan Greene, principal of the
local Junior high school, was the
speaker at the Kiwanis program on
Tuesday noon. Mr.. Greene is a
lieutenant in the officers reserve
and participated in the recent army
maneuovers at the Battle of Che
halls.
MIR. Greene rather expects to be
called to active service next month
but confesses that he really knows
no more than the man on the street
about just what will happen. His
talk on army life and what the re-
cent experiments were all about was
interesting in the extreme. He
summed his talk up by saying that
while there were many glaring
faults brought to light, neverthe-
less when the time came the coun-
try could absolutely bank upon the
efficiency of its military. -.

chez, since they are giving a COL

prevail from Washington within the

have everything in readiness so
that we can go without delay. The

ground instruction will be contract
ed by the school district. The Cen
trail Aircraft, Inc. of Yakima will be
the flight contractors to take care
of that part of the training.
The school will be open to boys
between the ages of 18 and 26; that
is, they must be 10, but not 26, by
October 1. One girl will be admitted
for each nine boys. Applicants
must be in sound physical condition
with no defects of vision or hearing
They must also be high school
graduates. The instruction covers
70 hours of class work and all
classes will be held in the evening

ton will, of course, be given at the
airport. There will be no charge to
applicants other than the physical
examination which must be given
by certified GAIA physician.
While we do not as yet have the
formal application blanks, we are
asking that all those who wish to ap-
ply turn in their names and adj
dresses to. me. This can be done by
telephone or in person. just as soon
as blanks arrive we will then be
in position to pass them out with
