He said the course is worked

they could witness or go through
the course just as Air Force per-
sonnel do.
Allegations Denied
AS for specific allegations made
in stories about the school, Maj
Oliphant denied that any inter-
lrogation lasted longer than AZ
minutes and said that no man
had ever been made to strip
naked" and that the officer who
was reported to have broken
down in tears actually was one
Iof the best students the school
had ever had and one who
laughed at his "captors" all
through the Interrogation. He
explained that this man had
tears in his eyes as the result OF
prolonged period Of doing
pushups.
Col. Casey, asserting that
this thing has been brought
way out Of focus" said the Air
Force is trying to teach its per-

their roles as prisoners Of war.
He said the Stead Schools
course on POW training "is
looked on as a vacation--a sort
of cops and robbers game" by
the students.
Maj. Oliphant. who empha-
sized that the students are not
forced to undergo any degrada-
ton, said that any of them Is
subject to call for immediate
combat flying duty and must be
ready to respond.
He said the new code for
POWs, announced by the White
House on August 10. is being
studied in connection with the
schools training and that
changes in the curricula may be
brought about.

Council Prepares
To Act On Plans

The planning commission for the
village of West Jefferson has sub
mitted to the council for their ap-
proval recommendation for the
zoning of the city in the near fu-
ture.
The recommendation include
seven classes of use districts, or
areas where only certain types OF
construction and business are per-
mitted. These are: II Residential;
p Residential and business; -
Central business district; a. Civic
center district; 81 Manufacturing
distrist; g. Public park district; y
Public school district.
Due to the actual and expected
growth of the village, it has been
the wish of the present council to
establish rules for the protection
of property owners, the safety of
the public, and the orderly growth
of the village as we'll as the inn
provement of existing facilities.
The planning commission was es-
tablished to accomplish these ends.
The recommendations as submit
ted are calculated to establish an
overall plan which will result in
no individual hardship or unfair
ness, but which will prevent the
mushrooming and disorderliness
common in similar cases of rapid
expansion.
Notices of public hearings on the
proposal will be published in this
paper in the near future. Council
must listen to all who have good
cause to be heard at the public
hearings. Following these, Coun.
Gil will act in their best judgment
on the proposals. If adopted, the
recommendations become law.
