Last Chance to
Enroll in Federal
Flying School
Unusual opportunity
offered to young men
to enter newest field
Faced with the problem of furn
ishing'two thousand instructor pilots
quickly the government has present
ed .the best opportunity for yoxmg
men bet-ween the ages of 19 and 26
to get into a paying career in avia
tion that has yet been worked out. ‘
Brains, ambition and aptitude}
plus normal physical assets, are all'
that are now required to gain en-1
trance into a flying career for any
young American, and the education-i
a 1 requirements are lowered. Native
ability, interest and perseverance
in studying the ground school course
is of more importance now than col
lege hours, and any student who en-‘
rolls in the summer session civilian‘
pilot training school now being con-i
ducted for Eastern Washington at!
Pasco will have an opportunity 'to go,
straight thru primary and secondary!
courses to a commercial or instruct-l
or’s ticket, if he can pass the com
petitive examination and shows ap-‘
titude in handling an airplane.
The class is not full yet for this.
section of the state, and any young
man who would like to take his fly
ing. at government expense should
find out the requirements as soon
as possible, ‘by applying to Dr. J. ‘L.
Greenwell at Pasco for his physical
examination, filling out an applica
tion blank such as we have on hand
in this newspaper office, getting
down to Pasco Tuesday or Thursday
evenings at 7:30 in the high school
or Saturday evenings from 6:00 to
830. Girls are not eligible for this,
governmentasponsored training, but
they can enroll in the ground schooll
non-competitively and if they pass
the 1342 test, are granted a private‘
pilot’s certificate which when the
required flying hours have been
made and the physical passed, gives
them the same right as any other
private pilot to fly a plane any
where in the United States, and to
take friends along with them.
There is the immediate possibility
that if an insufficient number of
students are enrolled in the Eastern
Washington ground school it will be
taken west of the mountains. Gom
petitors are already enrolled from
Walla Walla, Grandview, Sunnyside‘,
Connel, Kennewick, Othello and
Pasco, but there is time for any
young fellow who meets the quali
fications to get into the class. ‘
The secondary training center
forthispartof thestateislocated
at Spokane. EBolb Green of Pasco,
who passed first in the Fall Session
ground school, is eligible for this‘
training and has taken his secondary,
physical examination. He, with 12
other young men from all over the‘
district, will get 160 hours of flighti
training which will enable him to
:become an instructor or commercial(
pilot, either profession ,being welli
paid and assuring the holder of the‘
ticket to a position immediately. The
total cost is around $l5O which in
cludes living expenses and text books
along with the secondary physical.
The secondary enrollees put in all;
their time at a course in ground
work and flight training, which gives
the non-college OPT student the ad
vantage of the college phase com
petitor who has his college class
work to get done. '
Any young man interested should
see Dr. Greenwell or some certifiedl
GINA physician to get his OPT ex-;
amination completed, then apply for.
enrollment at the office of the cityl
superintendent of schools at Pasco,
or he can fill out an application
blank at the Eranklin county air
port where Forrest ‘Hart has the gov
ernment contract for training the
free flight scholarship winners {from
the first two ground schools held in
this district. The cost of physical
examination is $6.00 and it re
quires normal physical ability, being
not nearly so rigid as the army
physical examination.
It is imperative that any would
be competitor get started right away,
as the class work now deals with
Civil Air Regulations, one of the
most important parts of the course.
Information can be obtained at the
office of your local newspaper or by
writing ’to CP’l‘ Coordinator, Pasco
Public Schools, Pasco. 1
Open Federal School
For Airplane Work
Rapidly expanding airplane manu
facture is calling for more skilled
workers than are available in the
west. Classes in riviting and sheet
metal work are being opened in
Walla Walla for properly qualified
young men between the ages of 18
and 35, with assurances of positions
as soon as qualified.
The classes ars sponsored by the
federal government in cooperation
with local school districts. At pres
ent the only school in eastern Wash
ington is at Walla Walla, but there
are openings there at the present
time.
The school will require 30 hours a
week for 12 weeks and anyone in.
omested should contact the state em
ployment office at .Walla. Walla,
There is no charge other than fou
the examination and possibly for
{.tools.

Now Harvesting
Horse Heaven’s
Largest Crop
Bumper ields reported
in every section; about
one-third bulked.
- Harvest in the hills this year will
see the greatest bumper crop that
this vicinity has had for quite a few
years. Predictions this spring for.
the yield were far from reaching
the actual mark-some are boasting
of 40 and 45 rbushel—and to most
of the ranchers that is almost too
good to the true.
Probably about one-third of the
ranchers are bulking this year. Out
fits that are sacking are running in
second and third and a jigger is
necessary to keep pace with the
wheat pouring into .the sacks. Ex
perienced sack sewers are finding
it a job to keep up and even the best
are forced to call ‘for a rest now and
then.
When asked what they believe
their wheat is running, a few of the
optimistic ranchers remark, “Oh,
we’ll probably average between 35
and 40." One rancher reports a sack
a minute-another, one every 40
seconds. The dumps are closer and
larger, and to see them lying in
uniform rows with the straw dumps;
is gratifying even to one who lmows
little of wheat. 3
There are only a very few who;
have not begun their harvesting yet,
'due to the late weeding, but 'by the;
middle of next week there probably:
will not be an uncut field in Home!
Heaven.
