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’’.

IS COMING MONDAY
A. & M. Band Will Introduce
Something New into the
Community
An innovation in entertainments will be
given next Monday night in Guion Hall

been planned to provide the greatest vari-
ety of amusement possible to be obtained

tor Fairleigh wlll appear as the merry mu-
sicians in a comedy musical act and pro-
duce music out of things that seem impos-
sible such as tin cans, cotton gloves,black-
smith bellows, rubber tubing, bottles etc.
in all kinds of fantastic positions. ;
‘‘Hello! Hello! Back’’ is another head
liner wichyis guaranteed to produce twenty
minutes of pure unadulterated fun in a
Telephone Office. It is being advertised
as a gloom chasing riot.

lows: Mr. Brown, Owner of a public pay
station; J. E. Lewis, Y.M.C.A. Secretary;
