Hundreds of these cadets, near completion of their basic training
at Randolph Field, Texas, soon will be graduated to more powerful
single-engine planes or multi-motored ships which will constitute
the last leg in their training. After ten weeks of this advanced
flying, they will receive their “wings” and be commissioned second
lieutenants.

Campus on the March, as its title
suggests, pictures the moving m
of war activities on American col
lege and university campuses.
Courses of study have been radi
cally altered with emphasis on all
fields of technical training. Engi
neering and drafting courses have
been opened to women. Students
have put on uniforms. Dormitories,
dining halls, and classrooms have
been taken over by the Army and
Navy. Campus on the March is a
panorama of the outstanding
schools which are cooperating
whole heartedly with the war ef
fort. Of particular interest to this
locality will be shots made at Tex
as A. and M. and the University of
Texas.
The concluding short on tonight’s
program is Air Raid Warden. The
hero of the piece is Jim Blake, who,
like many civilians, joined the Air
Raid Warning Service early in
1942. The film shows the Air Raid
Warden performing his duties,
making the rounds of his beat, out
lining to his friends and neighbots
the precautions they must observe
when the alarm sounds. The finish
of the film shows a practice black
out with a demonstration by Jim
Blake of the many things he has
learned during his training. His ant August 5, 1941
