THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
Air Force Team
To Inferview
Persons Here
Opportunities for a eareer as an
officer in the United States Air
Force will be explained to college
men and women of this locality
during the next four days by an
Air Force officer team that arriv
ed today.
The team, composed of Capt.
Harry Burney and Lt. Robt. Pitt
man established local headquar
ters in the “Old College” building.
They will interview all persons
interested in a career with the Air
Force and will give examinations
to applicants for Aviation Cadet
training. Students who qualify
will have their papers processed
so they will be ready to begin
training with the Air Force after
they finish college.
In addition to interviewing Uni
versity of Georgia students, the
officers will explain Air Force of
ficer training programs to other
interested college graduates and
applicants in this area.
Type of Training
Three types of training availa
ble to qualified civilians follows.
1. Aviation Cadet Pilots Train
ing. Young men selected as Avia
tion Cadets receive 1 year of fly
ing, academic, and military train
ing. Graduates are commissioned
ag second lieutenants in the Air
Forces and are awarded the sil
ver wings of a pilot,
Outstanding graduates receive
Regular commissions. All others,
who receive Reserve commissions,
have opportunity to compete for
Regular commissions while on 3
years of active duty in flying as
signments with the Air Force.
To be elegibile for pilot training,
men must be single, between the
ages of 20 and 26 1-2, . citizens,
must have completed two years or

2. Aviation Cadet Navigator

need for navigators, the Air Force
has opened an Aviation = Cadet
navigator school at Ellington Air
Force Base, Houston, Tex. Quali
field young men are trained for 1
year in the latest techniques of
radar navigation. Classes begin
every month.
Graduates receive Reserve com
missions as second lieutenants,
with aeronautical rating as navi
gator. After a 30-day leave with
pay, they are assigned to naviga
tion duty on the new long-range
bombers and transports of the Air
Force.
Opportunities Same
Opportunities for Regular com
missions are the same as for Avia
tion Cadets taking pilot training.
The eligibility requirements also
are the same except for the physi
cal examination which is less
stringent for those seeking careers
as navigators.
3. Air Force Officer Candidate
School. Young men and women
seeking nonflying careers in the
Air Force receive military leader
ship training at Lackland Rir
Force Base near San Antonio, Tex.

1-2 and 26 1-2, either married or
single, citizen, must have comple
ted 2 years of college, must be in
good physical condition, and must
meet high moral and personal
qualifications.
In any of the training programs,
the Air Force officer team ex
plained, students who for any rea
son fail to complete the course are
returned to civilian life.
Chances Good
.
Quintuplets
.
Will Reach 50
NEW YORK, N. Y. — As the
Dionne quintuplets reach sweet 16
on May 28th the chances are two
in three that they will all live to
celebrate their 50th anniversary
together, statisticians of the Met
ropolitan Life Insurance Company
calculate.
The chances are 97 in 100 that
all five Dionnes will attain their
majority, and 27 in 100 that they
all will live to their 65th birth
day.
These figures are based on the
average survivorship for girls in
the general population of Canada.
But because of the special care
being given the guintuplets, their
prospects for exceeding the aver
age figures are excellent,
The Dionnes and the Diligentis
of Argentina, born in 1943, are the
only known cases of quintuplets
in all medical history who have
survived infancy.
Pension for United States war
veterans was first authorized in
1776.
In June, 1949, there were two
living veterans of World War Two
between the ages of 80 and 84 list

NEWS FROM THE
VETERANS CORNER
Here are authoritative answers
from the Veterans Administration
to four questions of interest to
former servicemen and their de
pendents:
Q. My brother was divorced
from his wife a short time before
his death. His NSLI policy naming
her his beneficiary had not been
changed at the time of his death.
Can this be done after his death
or will payment have to be made
to his divorced wife?
A. The beneficiary can be
changed only on the written con
sent of the veteran who pays for
the insurance. Since he did not
change his beneficiary before his
death, payment will have to be
made to his divorced wife. ,r
Q. I am a veteran of World
War I. Is there any limit for filing
a claim for compensation for dis
ability caused by my war service?
A. There is no time Imiit set for
filing a claim for compensation
under existing legislation.
