Air Force Orders Ry CARI HENN MORE: than 300 Indianapolis members of the Civil Air Patrol are getting ready for ‘big things.” : From Lt. Col. Merle 1. Denny, commanding officer of the Hoosier CAP 52d Wing, down to the newest CAP cadét, apeculation is rife on what those “big things” might be. = Although some good guesses are being made, nobody is sure his guess is correct. But something is in the wind, according to the U, 8. Air Force officer who commanded CAP members here on a practice rescue mission flown from Schoen Field at Ft. Harrison recently. “The Air Force doesn't give away 14,000 gallons of expensive gasoline for nothing,” said Lt. Robert 8. Wardner, observer from the 10th Air Force's

Nothing specific was mentioned. But, say members of the Indianapolis 527th Group, It might mean wholesale expansion of CAP cadet training Into high schools throughout Indi ana and the United States, and award of credits for courses taken, similar to present ROTC
