Elliott Mozee Graduates From Air Force Officer Candidate School

SAN ANTONIO, Texas Elliott Mozee, son of US. Marshal B. Mozee of Nome, was graduated from Air Force Officer Candidate School September II and awarded a commission as a second lieuten- ant in the Air Force Reserve.
 Graduation ceremonies were held at Lackland Air Force Base, in San Antonio, Texas, site of the Air Forces OCS. More than 800 new officers heard Maj. Gen. Rob- ert w. Douglass, commander of the 18th Air Force, deliver the principal address. Diplomas were presented to Class 53-C by Brig. Gen. Wycliffe E. Steele, base com mander.
 Mozee is 1947 graduate of Nome. High School, and attended the University of New Maxico, where he received his B.A. degree in 1852. He enlisted in the Air Force in 1852, and was assigned to Walker Air Force Base, Ros- well, NM., prior to receiving his appointment to OCS last March.
 Awarding of the commissions eliminated six months of study and practical application in Air Force administration and leader ship. Many graduates will report directly to active duty assign ments as administrative officers. Others will enter flying training. A number will serve in an enlisted status or return to civilian life to await. active duty in a commis- stoned status.
 Air Force OCS, only institution of it's kind, is under the supervi- sion of the Air Training Com mand and is a part of the Techni- cal Training Air Force. It gradu- ates four classes a year into the commissioned Reserve.

The appointment Of Samuel

To the Islanders it is more
than just a choice between
two men. Likewise it is more
than just getting a native-born
Governor. Behind both OF
these questions is the more
fundamental one of how and
for whom the Virgin Islands
are to be governed. Is the vel
fare and natural political aspi-
rations of 80 to 95 per cent OF
the population to be para

run as a resort by wealthy
mainlanders. The native popu-

is the case, the President must
appoint a native; # the latter
IS the case then the appoint

spoils system and this wealthy
Texas adventurer will get the
nod.

The National Lutheran Chorus
presented it's annual Christmas
concert in Constitution Hall last
night before a well-f1lled house.
The performance proved again
that "the letter kllleth but the
spirit giveth life"
The group projected the words
so clearly that no one in the
audience really needed the pro-
grams, which provided a written
record of them. The singers were
at their best in pieces which were
not contrapuntal. but even in
these polyphonic works the words
were not lost in the interWeav-
ing of the voices. In hymn
style music the choral blend was
best: soft passages Jared better
than loud; fortissimoS called for
all that each singer could muster
and some mustered more than
others.
In the folksongs and carols,
the chorus displayed a loving
sound that was truly moving.
The Chinese Carol" had a de-
lightful melody, with a flavor
that Western music rarely
achieves; the harmonic back
ground was Western, but 1t was
not obtrusive and did not inter-
fere with our enjoyment OF the
piece.
The christmas Story Accord
ing to St. Luke" was moving.
Mr.. Evans honey sincerity was
inspiring. The chorus occa-
sionally failed to enunciate
clearly in "The Christmas SYM
boil" Joy, Joy. Joy" and From
Heaven Above" but it was
expressing musically the spirit
ual emotion it lacked earlier
and the effect was measured in
goosef1esh.
The Junior Choir of some 200

band of angels. It's diction
was as perfect as that of its
elders: It's enjoyment of the
occasion was spontaneous; its
behavior would make any parent
proud. This group stole the show
hands down.
The performance of these
showed again that the public
school system could well afford
to spend better portion of its
money on music in the lower
grades. In many parts of this
Nation youngsters easily handle
three and four part music, un-
accompanied. The churches can
not do it all.

by the concerts of the National
Lutheran Chorus are used to
promote the better music in the

area. To this end they are plan
