“USED TO TRAIN ARMY'S FLIERS
. Speeded Program Enlarges “Scope of Defense Air Project.
ONTARIO, Cal., Nov. 15 (U. P.)— Fort -five days after a crop of hay had been cut from broad grain fields adjacent to thisy thriving Southern California town, a permanent army base had been established and was in operation, train- ». ing pilots for the army. : The Cal-Aero Academy, established as a private flying school by Maj. C. C. Moseley, offers primary instruction to army cadets and is one of nine such institutions established under the intensified national defense program The school uses’ army training planes and equipment and takes each student on a contract basis whereby the Government pays all the student's expenses. The academy is under the personal supervision of the army but employs civilian instructors and personnel. Life at the academy is based on army military disipline. : Cost Is $325,000 * Army officials believed the transformation of a grain field into a rermanent air base in 45 days was a record for speed and efficency n construction. : The base consists of two large hangars, four barracks, a canteen, a mess hall, a classroom building and administration building. The entire unit was erected in 40 days at a cost of $325,000, Five days after construction was completed the first class of 80 men began the 10-week training course. Cadets at the academy are army recruits who have shown a preference for the air arm of the service. Here at Cal-Aero they receive ground school training and pre“liminary flight instruction. After completion of the 10-week course the graduates are transferred to Moffett Field in Northern California, where they receive 10 weeks of basic training. From Moffett Field the cadets go to Stockton for their annual 10 weeks of advanced training, from which they graduate as second lieutenants in the army air corps reserve. West Point Men There Included among the trainees at Cal-Aero are graduates of [West Point ‘who have sought a transfer from ‘one of the other branches of service into the air corps. Thess trainees are regular commissioned officers in the army and are ranked above the regular enrollees. Should they flunk ‘out of the air corps they resume their regular status in the army. Fifteen flight instructors are included in the personnel of 57 in charge of operations at the academy. Lieut. Arthur Strunk is chief instructor at the academy and is

Ten minutes later she walked out, minus the Marquis Henry De La Falaise De La Coudraye, her third husband. The Marquis Henry De La ete. last was heard from in Paris, where he was serving as an interpreter in the French Army. Miss B. spent most of hre six weeks in Reno knit~ ting heelless sox for British soldiers. Miss Patrick, the Birmingham, Ala., girl who got her start in the movies as a “Panther Woman,” gave as one reason. in Los Angeles court for getting a divorce from Bob Cobb, the fact that they both were Irish. Mr. Cobb is president of the Brown Derby Restaurants and vice president of the Hollywood Baseball Club. His marriage to Miss Patrick was régarded—like Mary Pickford’s and "Douglas Fairbanks’—as the ideal match. In neat black suit and hat to
match, the beauteous Miss Patrick told Judge William S. Baird that her husband’s disposition humiliated and embarrassed her and made her nervous and ill. Brod Crawford, the newest heman of the movies, an expert actor specializing in bone-headed parts, led Miss Kay Griffith, one of Hollywood’s lovelies, to the City Hall and plunked down his $2 for a marriage license. “We don’t want ours to be a Hollywood marriage,” quote Miss G. “We want it to last. So I am going to quit the movies and let Brod bring home the bacon.”
