CLEARANCE SALE REDUCTION On 'Every Item in the Store at the BO-KAY SHOP 811 Wall Street Phone 283 FIELD TRAINS ARMY PILOTS All Cadets Go Through Randolph Field 7,000 to Be Taught Basic Flying During Current Year handicap. 7,000 in First Year Washington IP All young men won to the glamour of the air service aristocrat of all the military branches find their way ultimately to the "West Point of the Air" at Randolph Field, where they are taught basic fly. Ing.

Most, of the cadets come from 18 private training schools where they have received 65 hours of ele. mentary pilot training. The number 6f such schools soon will be increased to 29. In this connection, the army is now conducting tests with youths who received their elementary training under the civil aeronauties bureau to determine whether they, too, have sufficient preliminary work to make them eligible for Randolph Field training. It is believed that with a few minor changes the civil aeronautics bureau training might do very well.

But in any case there is no lack of men to build up the The proposed expanded air force. army's worry is over the number air. planes available for the task ahead. Possible future engine shortages seem the most likely The present schedule calls for the training of 7,000 pilots in the fiscal year ending next June. The rate is expected to be stepped up even before this time to 12.000 a year.

But to do this planes are needed. At the present the army concedes it has not enough basic training planes at Randolph Field. The (number of men being trained per ship is above what they consider desirable. They have developed a relay system whereby maximum use is made of available planes. When the young cadet arrives at his flight stage in the morning he looks at a chart.

He sees just when he gets his plane, whether he is to be accompanied by an instructor or to solo. He is at or in his plane at the moment his fly. ing time begins. If he is due to go up later, he spends the intervening time in class. But when he lands at the end of the class period, he is ready and waiting to take it.

Each plane is used between three hours and forty five minutes and three hours and fifty minutes out of each four hours the length of morning and afternoon training periods. Train in Monoplane The cadet's basic training plane at Randolph -the BT-14 -replaces the slow going elementary commercial plane used in the previous 65 hour flight hours he had. It is a low wing monoplane of horsepower which will do 170 miles per hour, is capable of loops, slow or snap rolls and Immelman, turns. Each cadet must learn to execute these as well as to become familiar with the 60 gadgets on the instrument panel. He must learn to read maps, fly cross country and obey orders.

Each infraction of rules through his own fault is marked in stars against his name classroom. For each star he is fined 25 cents. The kitty is used at graduation time to give a party for the class. On conclusion of his course, the cadet goes to Kelly field nearby to be schooled in the army plane in which he will specialize the bomber, pursuit, observation, etc. Shortly the schedule will be changed so that he will go to his troops at once and receive this training there.

In anticipation of speeding up of the pilot training program, 11 new commercial schools will soon be given training contracts by the war department. The basic school will then have to enlarge its schedule but by then, officers hope, the new training planes will be available. The basic training school ultimately will accommodate 1,000 cadets at a time, in classes of 500 each. New classes will be spaced five weeks apart in the training period of ten weeks. Supreme Court May Have to Pick Judge Salem, Jan.

2 (tP The Oregon supreme court was faced today with deciding whether Circuit Judge George Tazwell or Newton C. Smith, Portland attorney, shall sit on the circuit bench, Governor Charles A. Sprague challenged Judge Tazwell's right to continue in office by appointing Smith to that bench. District Judge John A. Mears defeated Judge Tazwell for the circuit court in last November's election.

Judge Mears was killed in an automobile accident, before he had been sworn in. The governor appointed Smith after he had been informed that Judge Tazwell intended to continue on the bench until 1912. Sprague explained that there was difference, of opinion among lawyers on the question of filling the court vacancy and that he had taken action to secure a speedy settlement of the question.

UTAH CREWS SEEK BODIES OF SKIERS Four Persons Believed to Be Under Avalanche Alta, Utah, Jan.

2 (P) -New crews of trained workers today took over a search through tons of snow, ice and rock in Wasatch mountain's Rustlers' gulch, searching for bodies of possibly four New Year's day skiers who ished under an avalanche. Salt Lake county sheriff's officers, directing the search at this winter sports resort high in the mountains above Salt Lake valley, said it still had not been definitely established how many skiers were I trapped. Only one skier was known to be missing. He was Kenneth Wright, Salt Lake City. He had separated from friends and gone into the area where the si slide hit to experiment at cross country skiing.

Wright did not return to his home last night, had not been seen since he left his friends and broken skis found in the debris had been iden-1 tified as his. Witnesses reported seeing at least three other skiers swept away as the snow cascaded down the steep mountain side. But authorities had received no reports of anyone else being missing. Nearly 400 workers were at the scene of the slide today. One man, experienced at searching through debris left by snow slides -which are frequent in this area- -said it might be days before the exact toil of the slide was known.

He said it was possible the toll would not be ascertained definitely until the spring thaws.

TOWER LAST TIMES TONIGHT DANGER IS WHAT THEY LIVE SOUTH BRENDA GEORGE MARSHALL BRENT TOBIAS ET PAT LAMES LEWIS SEILER STEPHENS.OW A WARNER A COMING! ARIZON Mattress Bees Held In Arkansas Counties Little Rock, Ark (P)-The quilting bee, log-rollings, ings of a century ago have given way to "mattress making" in rural Arkansas. Several years ago the matrons of rural neighborhoods gathered around quilting frames to do their bit of chit-chat. Today the basie idea is the same, but of making quilts, the are winstead turning out mattresses, and, incidentally, helping to use up some of the south's cotton surplus.

The mattress making projects were launched by the agricultural extension service and the works progress administration with a double -to improve the quality of bedding in rural homes and to dispose of more cotton. Rural women took to the idea immediately and from one county to another the projects spread until now they are operating all over the state. A half dozen women can turn out from three to four mattresses a day, allowing for the time that their needles are idle while the latest gossip is being passed around. Fifty pounds of cotton and 10 yards of ticking are required for each mattress. Home demonstration agents of the extension service provide the instructions on how the mattresses should be made.

They are being assisted by leaders from each community who are taught the principles of mattress making at special schools. "Electric Brains" Made For Boulder Dam Use Pittsburgh (IP.

PNEUMONIA DEATH RATE STATIONARY Little Chance Seen for Further Reduction Philadelphia (P) -The outlook for further reduction in the pneumonia fatality rate is "pretty bad," according to Dr. Perrin H. Long, professor Johns Hopkins preventive university.

sitedleine Dr. Long blamed the pessimistic outlook on economic factors and public interest, as he spoke before the Philadelphia County Medical Society. "We have just about reached our low mortality rate," Dr. Long said. "First, people don't go to see their doctors enough, because they don't have the money to spend.

Second, people don't want to spend their money. "If we could treat every pneumonia patient within 24 hours, through some drug or serum, the fatality rate would be cut to less than 5 per cent. But our education program is pretty hopeless, I think. and I don't feel that the mortality rate will go much below 8 per The nationally known pulmonary expert praised use of sulfapyridine and sulfathiozole as "really about the least dangerous drugs you can use as far as toxic effects are concerned." He said that in the five years prior to the introduction of sulfapyridine at Johns Hopkins hospital, the pneumonia death rate was lowered 21 per cent. In the year following during October, 1938, when the drug was introduced, the mortality rate fell to 7.2 per cent.
