ing, they were given another 65
hours dual and solo flying on basic
and training planes with 450 horse
power engines.
After successfuly completing this
training, they came to the air
corps advanced flying school at
Kelly Field. Here, they received 70
hours of flying in basic combat
planes with 650 horse power en
gines, bringing their total flying
hours to at least 200. This instruct
ion and experience includes flying,
formation, navigation flying and
those other duties an officer is
called upon to perform. These ca
dets have completed this final
phase of training and have dem
onstrated that they are qualified
both as officers and pilots.
Frozen Food—
(Continued from Page 1)
dairy products in relation to lock
er plants.
In order for the men and women
of College Station and Bryan to
fully realize what services they
will receive and how their products
will be handled a complete display
of the fresh and frozen items will
be shown. The display will include
pork, beef, and mutton carcasses
cut exactly as they are in regular
food locker fashion. The students
who are now taking the course
that deals with these lockers will
be on hand to answer any ques
tions that may arise in the visitors
minds.
Movie Review—
( Continued from Page 2)
larly Brennan’s penetrating char
acterization of the old judge is
good, and even if Cooper is the
model of the old time hero, he is a
good model, and the show is well
worth seeing.
Another bit of historical fiction
which lends itself as the basis of a
better than passing fair movie is
used in “THE SEA HAWK." It
concerns the escapades of gallant
Errol Flynn as the captain of an
English privateer in the days of
Queen Elizabeth, who raided the
Spanish fleet whenever and-where-
ever it could be found. His actions
severely strain the relations be
tween the two countries. One of
his expeditions to swipe some
Spanish gold from Central America
is foiled by the actions of a lace
collared fifth columnist who is
further trying to stir up a war.
Flynn dramatically steals the whole
ship upon which he is held as a
galley slave and flees home in time
to warn the Queen that the Armada
is on its way.
Errol Flynn has nearly every
chance on the books to show his
swashbuckling knavery and he
doesn’t miss any of them.. The re
sult is a picture which is perhaps
too hazardous to sound reasonable
and too much like the comic strips
m that the main guy can get him
self out of anything if given enough
time. Even so, too much life is
better than too little, so “The Sea
Hawk” is still better than passing
fair.

“Miss Cherryblossom,” a three-

November 22, by the high school
glee clubs under the direction of
Euell Porter, vocal director. The
matinee will begin at 2 o’clock and

The part of Cherry is played by
Cleota Ann Bullock, and her Amer

Billy Eads. Bill Andrews is the
villian, and John Riley provokes
most of the laughs. Others in prin
cipal roles are John Huggins and
James Henry.

large, heavy furniture.
