AIRPLANE EQUIPMENT ORDERED FOR A. & M. Meeting to be Held Soon To Ex- plain Training In Air Unit A general meeting of the whole cadet 22, when the second term begins, at which time President W. B. Bizzell and Major Clinton Russell will explain the training that will be given in the ~ir Service unit, after which 100 cadets who are qualified to become officers in the air service will be permitted to transfer to the Air Service from the other branches of infantry, caval- ry, field artilery and signal corps. Fresh- men and sophomores are eligible for the new unit and such juniors as have already served an enlistment in an aviation ground school. There are a few of the latter in college at the present time and they will be allowed te enter the advanced course. Those freshmen who transfer to the Air Service from the other branches will con- tinue to spend most of their training peri- ods taking infantry drill. Sophomores- .will get less infantry instruction than the freshmen and will spend more of their time in learning the various parts of air- planes and motors. They will also have radio work as a part of their training. The juniors taking the advanced course will in addition to this get instruction in laison or communication work which will be car- ried on in connection with the field artil- _lery unit. The equipment for the Air Service unit has been ordered. Itis expected that this will be shipped from one of the flying fields in Texas and will be received here within the next few days so that work in this branch of the service may be started with the beginning of the second term Jan. 22. The government authorizes the college to requisition for equipment to the value of $200,000 for the training of 100 students in the Air Service unit,but the college will not order all this atonce.. The requisition sent out by Major Russell last week is for two biplanes of standard type without mo- tors; two Liberty twelve cylinder motors, two Hispano-Suiza motors, two Lerhone motors, propellers and other airplane parts, tools of all kinds, all those different kinds of technical instruments used in an aviation ground school, together with broken parts of instruments, planes and motors such as scored crank shafts, injured bearings and other material from‘ ‘unserviceable stores’’.
