bunch of instructors ever whipped together overnight.
 The Miami Beach OTIS. literally was started on shoe string. A few short months ago the instructors were civilians reading the head lines even as you and in those days before Dec. 2, 194I. Products of the early classes at the OTIS, many veterans of the first World War, they were manipulated to form the faculty of a military college on the shores of Miami Beach which already is taking on touch of ivy before its first birthday.
 Who wants to teach school with a war going on all around the world? Every one of the OTIS. in- structors would like to be right in the thick of 1t but their present duty -calls for them to convert greenhorns into future Air Force officers and only A days in which to do 1t. Brother, they have their hands full but what Q job they're doing.
 Results Amaze Washington
 They have produced officers at a pace that the brass hats in Wash ington never dreamed possible They have turned out men who are going to play outstanding roles in the big battles of the sky which1l be fought in Egypt, Australia, India and over the far-hung battleflelds and skyways from the White Cliffs of Dover to the endless steppes of Russia. Some of them will wind up heroes, but when you first see lem come trouping into Miami Beach to report, looking like a bunch of run down-at-the- heel travelling sales- men, you have your doubts.
 That August graduating day in the ey-Plaza patio when a lieu tenant stood at the mike and read of each graduating officers name and his next station of duty is one I'll never forget. It was a dramatic scene even for hard -boiled re- porter who thinks he's seen and done everything. A bunch of old guys from 30 to 50 who had been retreaded whipped back into men, tai and physical condition and rushed through tabloid military course sat there on the edge of their chairs waiting in silence to hear where they were to begin the biggest tasks of their careers.
 The lieutenant's sharp staccato voice parked of the names and as- signmentS--
 The names exploded out of the mike and the old guys with smiles on their faces and songs in their hearts were on their way to the wars-a gang of officers who'll do the vital work on the ground so the pilot and the bombardier and the gunner and the rest of the air crew can blast the NaziS and the Japs out of the sky and oil the earth.
