training appears to be wide
spread, particularly among
younger enlisted personnel, a
brief summary of the nature
of the course and of the re-
quirements for admission to the
flight class is here presented
for general information.
In order to be eligible for
recommendation for aviation
pilot training, enlisted candid
ates must meet the following
requirements: (a) Maximum
age not over 20 years on July
l, 1910. (b) Physically qualified
and tempermentally adapted for
aviation training, as determined
by a medical officer qualified in
aviation medicine flight sur
geon). (c) Have good records
and character. Cd Men of avia-
ton ratings and radiomen are
desired in nomination for this
training. Seamen first class,
who have been attached to the
aviation units for a period of
at least six months and who
are especially recommended by
their commanding officers; who
are capable of passing the eX-
animation for radioman, third
class, or third class aviation
ratings, and who are of petty
officer caliber, are also desired
for this training. No chief pet
ty officers are desired. ~ Have
four years obligated service re-
naming from date of compile
ton of course. Extension of cur
rent enlistment in order to meet
this requirement is permissible,
but men already serving on an
extension who have insufficient
obligated service are not ELI
gible.
The course in flight training
for enlisted personnel lasts for
approximately ten months. Dur
ing the greater part of this
period, one-half of each work.
ing day is devoted to flight in
struction and the other to the
study of ground school subjects.
Students who successfully
complete the course have two
hundred odd hours in the air

old by his brilliant naval battle
on Lake Champlain delayed the
British drive southwark for a
full year, thereby affording the
Continental Army opportunity
to concert measures which re-
suited in the capitulation of
Burgoyne at Saratoga. This cap
itulation, in turn brought into
the contest the naval forces
abroad, Transforming the local
into a universal war, and assur-
ing the independence of the
Colonies.
Decrease and his French fleet
prevented English aid from
reaching CORVALLIS when he
was surrounded at Yorktown.
Defeated in all but one land
battle during the War of 1872,
it was the naval victories on
Lake Erie, Lake Champlain, and
on the high seas that ultimately
brought about a treaty of peace.
The battle of Manila Bay and
Santiago in which the Spanish
navy was swept from the seas,
decided the outcome of that war

EDUCATION BOARD
UPHOLDS SIMMONS;
NO ONE is FIRED

The tsate board of education
ended its investigation into the
row at the state university at
Missoula by upholding the ad-
ministration of PreSd d e n t
George Finlay Simmons and by
resembling its order asking for
the designations of five profess
sors. A statement issued by the
board after a meeting at Mis-
soula urged all members of the
schools faculty to work in har-
mony for the good of the dnsti-
tuition.
The statement said evidence
presented at a two-week hear
ing held at the university in
February disclosed that the in
ternal dissension at the insti-
tuition had not affected its
scholastic standing or the gen.
eral welfare of the students.
insufficient financial support
for the university was given by
the board as one of the main
reasons for the trouble. The in
vestigation also showed that
there had been no restraint on
academic freedom or censorship
on faculty or studtnt publica-
lions, it was stated. It was also
brought out that members of
the faculty had been free to
join labor organizations, and
would continue to be allowed
such freedom.
The board issued an order
last September asking for the
designations of Librarian P. o.
Keeney; C.EF. Mollette, dean of
the pharmacy school; E. A. At
kinson, psychology professor; N.
J. Lennes, mathematics profess
sor, and H. G. Merriam, head Of

Nautical Novelties
Did You Know

There has always been lot
of argument about just where
the Stars and Stripes first went
into battle. OF all the claims,
the strongest is probably that
of Colonel Peter Ganseveoort.
In TIT he was defending Fort
Stanwix against a force COM
posed of Indians and British
when reenforcementS managed
to reach him-bringing news
that the Stars and Stripes had
been adopted. From their des-
cription, a flag was fashioned.
Soldiers gave their white shirts,
officers wives gave their red
flannel unmentionables, and
Captain Abraham Swarthout
gave his fine blue cloth coat.
A flag was fashioned from these
contributions and raised over
the fort. The tide Of battle was
turned, and Old Glory was
launched on a string Of wins.
Captain Swarthout was later
rewarded for his generosity and
patriotism by grant Of Congress
buying him a new coat.
Who Controls The Sea,
Controls the World
Sea power has ultimately cast
the deciding note in every great
war. From the beginning Of his
tory to the present day, the
control of the sea has been
the deciding factor in interna-
tional conflicts. In the naval
battle Of Salamis, the Athenian
Triremes thrust back the on
rushing Persians into Asia and
saved the Greek civilization for
the world. To the little Chris
tan fleet at Constantinople
must go the credit of not only
repeatedly beating back the
Saracen wave which threatened
to engulf all Christendom, but
also of checking the Caliphate
at its peak of power and start
ing it on its decline some four
teen years before the land bat
tie of Tours and Polictiers in
western Europe.
Nelson's famous victories over
the fleets of France and Spain
saved England from invasion
during the Napoleonic wars. Ir
the World War I, had the allies
not controlled the sea, defeat
would have been swift and Ger
tain.
The history and development
of our own country illustrate
the same truth.
