DR.. Walter E. Hager, newly-ap-
pointed president of Wilson Teach
ers' College, yesterday made his
first address to colleagues in the

ton in the pupil guidance program.

sized that a guidance program de-

Civil Air Patrol P!arc
Being Perfected on
Nationwide Basis
Reserve Flying Force
For Thousands Expected
To Be Announced Soon

Plans for establishment Of
Nationwide civil air patrol, with
thousands of private pilots enlisted
in a reserve flying force to aid in
policing the skyways and preventing
possible sabotage and spying from
aircraft, have been virtually COM
pleted by the Office of Civilian
Defense and are to be announced
shortly, it was learned today.
The new organization Is 10 be
built around civil air defense units
already formed in 20 States It's
personnel would be recruited from
the more than $1,000 persons now
holding pilots licenses. It's basic
equipment would be the some 23500
private, small airplanes currently
in use throughout the country.
Membership is to be open not
only to licensed pilots. but also to
mechanics, radio operators and
other qualified ground personnel.
Both men and women are to be
eligible.
Light Planes Aid Troops.
Experiments with "grasshopper"
airplane fleets in recent Army
maneuvers have convinced military
authorities that light planes at
tached directly TO troops are an
invaluable help. The small craft,
it was demonstrated. can land safely
IN COW pastures and on highways,
and thus can transport staff officers
speedily to units in the field They
can locate lost squads and spot
enemy raiding parties. Their direc-
tons on artillery fire greatly IN
crease accuracy.
Each State organization Of the
patrol, according to the plan, is to
be called a wing" The New Jersey
wing, already operating, is likely to
be model for other State groups,
1t was said. Each State wing will
be divided into squadrons and pos
sibly smaller units, for which train
ing and instruction would be ar
ranged.
All applicants would be finger
printed and checked. and American
citizenship likely will be one OF The
eligibility requirements.
Conferences Held.
Representatives of existing State
civil defense groups have held re-
peated conferences with Capt. Gill
Robb Wilson, president Of the Ma
tional Aeronautic Associa ton and
chairman Of the o. c. DIS Com
mittee on Civil Air Defense. about
the projected national patrol.
Sessions have been held, also,
with officials Of light aircraft and
plane engine manufacturers through
cooperation of the Aeronautical
Chamber of Commerce.
Some priorities assistance has been
worked out by o. P. NJ. to enable
these manufacturers to continue TO
turn out planes. And, since they
require comparatively little scarce
material and provide q means OF
training civilian pilots, the chances
are that there will be little cartaAl-
ment in production OF such planes.
AS yet there is no State civn cir
organization in Maryland, but VIZ
ginia has an active Civn flying
Corps created through tho ad3utant
general
Besides the 10 States now haxkng
civil air units, a number OF others
have completed nearly all necessary
arrangements. They have been re-
quested by o. c. D. officials. how
