PERU SCHOOL READY JULY 1

Preliminary Training Center To Have Facilities for 800 Students.

Times Special BUNKER HILL, Ind., May 21— Across the road from this town with the historically - significant name the navy is building another plant

to train men who fight in the sky for liberty. By July 1, the 2000-acre preliminary flight training base on Road 31, seven miles south of Peru, is expected to be in operation. Then 800 men will be given 12 week’s preliminary training prior to their shipment to final training bases as naval aviation cadets.

Spring Planting Halted

Other navy training stations in Indiana, which will compare in size to the one here, are the V-7 indoctrination at Notre Dame university, the yeoman school at Indiana university, the electrician’s school at Purdue university, the signal school at Butler university and the radio school at the naval armory in Indianapolis. Three weeks ago the land here was under cultivation, ready for late spring planting. Then came the news that the navy was taking over. Construction of runways, hangars, administration buildings and barracks is progressing rapidly under the direction of Lieut H. H. Holmberg, construction officer, and Lieut. Comm. P, T. Stonemetz, who probably will be base commander. Lieut. Comm. William C, King is likely to be the executive officer.

Brings Family Along

Lieut. Comm. Stonemetz came to Indiana from duty in the navigation bureau, Washington, and he brought along his wife, his mother, and his daughter, Anne. Youths sent here already will have been put through the navy’s indoctrination and physical hardening program of 14 weeks and be ready to start learning to fight in the air. : Upon graduation, they will be appointed aviation cadets and sent to advanced flight training bases.
