Classes
rs Students Seek
To Finish Before
August IS Bon

The August Is deadline set by the
Army for the end of civilian pilot
training along the East Coast today
found approximately 1875 students
at four airports around Washington
rushing to complete their courses be-
fore the ban goes into effect.
OF the four airports. including
College Park. Schrom, Beacon and
Congressional, all but Schrom have
definitely chosen site for a new
field outside the forbidden territory.
Meanwhile, 1t was understood Civil
Aeronautics Administration officials
were comforting In New York with
officers of the Eastern Defense Com
mand in an effort to have the dead
line postponed long enough for some
of the students to finish their course.
Work for Army.
All the training now being done
under the civilian pilot training
program is for Army pilots for laision
work, artillery observation. trans
port, glider or instruction and Navy
pilots, who are taking elementary
and advanced flying courses.
c. A. A. officials said % schools
were in the area affected by the
Army order, which stretches from
Maine to the Carolinas. Approx
mately $50 students are now in
training at airports which have to
move or shut down by August IS
Besides stepping up their training
program and hoping for good
weather, the airport managers are
busy making plans for the move,
which has to be carefully laid out
in advance. Not the least of the
problems is moving the planes.
Ground School Problem.
On the West Coast, the ban, which
came soon after war was declared,
sent one flying school from Oak
land, Calf, to Douglas. Ariz., 900
miles away. Fourteen of the Cali
fornia schools set up business again
in the eastern part of the State,
nine went to Arizona and one to
Nevada.
One of the main problems is giving
the students their ground school as
we'll as flying training. At Schrom
Airport, an official said some ar
rangement would have to be worked
out whereby the students would
spend few weeks at ground school
and then go by bus to the flying
field for a few weeks there.
OF the go students now training
there, it was expected that the ma
jority would finish by August 15
Those in the instructors course
there, however, may have to finish
at the new location.
Going to Martinsburg.
Congressional Airport is moving to
Martinsburg, w. Va, and hopes to
have its IA students through with
their course before the deadline
Beacon Airport is moving about 30
miles away to Catlett, Va, and has
stepped up its course to get Is men
graduated by the deadline.
With IS students to rush through
courses, College Park now starts its
flying at $40 am. and keeps it up
until pm. The students are al
lowed to fly only an hour at time,
with two-hour rest between flights
under CAA rules. The stepped-up
program calls for the students to
fly IA time week The time in
ground school is cut down, so stu
dents can finish those studies when
the planes are grounded. The Col
lege Park school plans to move into
Virginia.

Prince Georges
Board Approves
Bond Issue
$500, 900 Will Be Used
To Purchase Lund
For Improvements

Prince Georges County officials
today pushed plans for the floating
of a $500,000 bond issue for public
improvements in the Metropolitan
area, following approval of the prof.
ect yesterday by the county COM
missioners. j

chase land and rights of way. al
though actual construction work
will not begin until after the war,
according to William A. Carson,
board chairman.
At the last session of the Legis-
lature, the commissioners we're au-
thorized to issue 100000 worth of
bonds for public Improvements dur
ing 194l and 1912. Last year the
group floated a s3O0,OO issue, leav-
ing a balance of s500,000 (
Advisory Board Approves. #
Issuance of this balance was urged
last week by the Advisory Board to
the commissioners. At that time,
DR.. Harry J. Patterson, chairman
OF the advisory body. pointed out
that floating of the bond issue would
create a public works program that
would aid in postwar adjustment.
Oliver Metzerott, another member
of the Advisory Board, and Fred w.
Tuemmler, director of planning OF
the Maryland National Capital, Park
aand Planning Commission. also
emphasized the desirability of pur-
chasing land now for future i'm
provements. I
The commissioners also authorized
the Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission to sell $1,000, 900 worth
Of bonds, Series w, and $500 900
worth of bonds, series II.
Urges Fourth Clinic. K
A plea for additional health clinic
space was voiced by DR.. John M.
Byers, county health officer. Declar-
ing that. present facilities at the
three clinics in Upper Marlboro,
Hyattsville and Laurel are made
quate to meet the conty's needs, DR..
Byers suggested the commissioners
obtain an abandoned school in
Aquasco for use as a fourth clinic.
He added that the State Health
Department had promised to fur
nish equipment for a new clinic.
The commissioners took no action.
The donation to the War Produc-
ton Board of the countys half in
terest in the abandoned Priests
Bridge over the Patuxent River for
salvage purposes was approved by
the, group. Anne Arundel County
of1ciAls already have turned over
their half interest in the bridge
to the WPB.

guns and uniforms for Minute Men
in the county would have to be
considered at the next session Of
the Legislature

bach, agent, for the rezoning of
lots /, 2. and 4, block S, Riverdale,
from residential A to G, was
granted
