desire to enter airplane factories
after graduation.
The course covers virtually every
phase of airplane production, includ-
ing riveting, bending, forming and
hammering out metal, filing. drill
ing, center punching, welding and
lathe work. In addition, students
draw their own blueprints.
While the work has been prelim-

students go into actual production
OF plane parts soon in cooperation
with airplane factories.
THE entire class has shown tre-
mendous interest in the work." Mr..
Bender declared, with the girls
being even better than the boys in
some respects. They seem to have

3-Doy Hearing Ended
After Engineer Asserts
Diesel Changed Signal
BY the Associated Press.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 2.-The Inter-
state Commerce Commission today
began studying testimony taken in
three-day hearing into the causes
of the triple train wreck on the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad near
Dickerson, Md, that cost IA lives
The hearing ended yesterday after
Engineer Raymond R. McClelland,
SO, declared he believed his Diesel
locomotive had changed railroad
signal from green to yellow.
The Ambassador, Detroit-to-
Washington Express piloted by
Engineer McClelland, plowed into
the rear of the Cleveland Night Ex-
press. also Washington bound and
tossed its rear Pullman car into the
side of a passing freight train
Twelve of IA victims have been
identified. e"
Statements on Signal.
Mr.. McClelland told Montgomery
County officials shortly after the
wreck that he had seen the yellow
signal. At the hearing Wednesday
he testified he had not seen it and
tainted. Then yesterday he said he
didn't remember making such a
statement Wednesday.
. His new statement about the yel-
low signal, made shortly after
Trainmaster C. H. Norris had said
that 1--WE know you haven't told the
whole story" was:
"As came to signal No. E-3834
(the Yellow I was passing under
that signal and I looked up and
saw that signal in a yellow position
which thought was green and COM
ing down to yellow. After I spied
the fusee, it popped in my mind
that that signal must have been
yellow. That's the truth"
When General Manager F. G.
Hoskins asked Mr.. McClelland how
he got out of the wrecked Diesel
without injury. the engineer said
"All know is the blow knocked me
fiat on the floor of the cab"
isn't is fact that you got in
the clear and did nothing?"
mo, sir. I stayed right in my
cab. Besides, the door there is hard
to open, and if I had jumped I
would have slid under the engine. ~
Shoulder Scared.
Mr.. McClelland declared that he
had "a big scar on my right shoul-
der to show 1 was knocked on the
floor. How I got out of there, !
don't know"
The engineer said he did not re-
member telling a county police
lieutenant and later a Baltimore &
Ohio railroad official that he had
thrown himself on the cab floor
when he saw that the crash was
inevitable.
Freight Engineer Gus Richards
testified that he always knew him
(McClelland) as one of the safest
engineers in the service"
Mr.. McClelland also testified that
bridge guards did not wave violently
at him trying to stop his train, but
that he only saw the guard plainly
saluting me as he always does.
always salute them as I pass. I've
been around this railroad long
enough to know that if any one
waves violently it means a STOP"
The engineer has been charged
with involuntary manslaughter.

Then in September, 1941, girls were
employed for the first time by the

the decision to discontinue the err

Concert Rehearsal

Mile o Dimes Today
Kinder Puts Orchestra
Through PAGES in
Novel Benefit Program

There is more to a symphony
concert than the matter of 80 men
playing the notes they see before
them. This much, at least, was
learned by the audience gathered
In the Hall of the Americas at the
Pan n-American Union yesterday
afternoon to attend rehearsal OF
the National Symphony Orchestra,
open to the public as Mile o Dimes
benefit.
And DR.. Hans Kinder, conducting
the rehearsal, learned that an audi
ence can be just as quiet for a prac-
tice session as for a concert.
The open rehearsal, the most novel
event so far in this years Mile O
Dimes campaign, was arranged
through the cooperation of DR..
Kinder, Nine. Guiomar Novaes, the
noted Brazilian pianist who will be
soloist with the orchestra at to-
nights concert, and the Pan-Amer-
lean Union.
Receipts Are Presented.
Today Dr.. Kinder appeared at
the Mile O. Dimes stand at noon
to turn over the proceeds of the
rehearsal seat sale to the infantile
paralysis fund. Expressing his hap

pate in the campaign, DR.. Kinder
said: Don't thank Inc, thank the

Trade Commission, the United
States Tariff Commission and the
keystone Automobile Club on the
same radio broadcast at 1915
o'clock brought contributions OF
their groups to the red. white and
blue stand at Fourteenth street and
New York avenue NV.
Later today the American Red
Cross was to be represented on the
AS o'clock broadcast over WMAL.
If the audience at the symphony
rehearsal expected to see any flare
up, they were disappointed. DR..
Kinder apologized for that when he
was finished.

told the audience after the last
selection I'm sorry there were no

Later he reiterated that this had
been a regular rehearsal and not a
