Civil Air Patrol Playing 1 Important Role In National Program, Says Maj. Sellers (I "The Civil Air Patrol is playing ? a big part in our national aviation program," Major J. M. Sellars, . AshevUle, told Rotarians here Fri I day. ' The visiting executive officer of ? Group Four of the CAP, explained the founding of the organization t in the early days of World War II, . and the important role the CAP , now plays in the national program. The program is two-fold, the speaker explained; search and rescue, and training of cadets, who are between 14 and 18 years of age, and both boys and girls. All officers of the CAP are trained by the Air Force, and are trained In every phase of aviation, Major Sellers explained. "It is not necessary to fly in or der to be a member of CAP," the executive officer explained. "There are from 10 to 20 work ing personnel on the ground for every flyer," he continued. The cadets %re taken on orienta tion flights, but are not given any | trafntng as flyers, as that la left to special instructors. The cadets are shown the principal of flight, and all other phases of aviation. Cadets who are CAP cadets can go directly into the Air Force as first class airman, at a higher rate of pay than those without the cadet training. Since there are so many cadets now in CAP. the screening of those seeking admission has been stepped up, Major Seller* said. Members of CAP receive no pay, except when on actual rescue or search misaion, and during such training courses as was staged a bout a week ago. The members pay for their uniforms, and are called on for any type of emer gency. Major Sellers discussed the crash of one of the search planes which hit a mountainside near Soco a week ago. "An average of one plane is lost in three search missions," he explained. About 600 persons and 60 to 70 aircraft took part in the recent search program in this area. Plans are being made for the CAP to drop flowers on cemeteries during Memorial Day ceremonies in this area, the officer said. Want ada bring quick results I ADELINE BEST I ?

GOVERNOR I regret that it has not been possible to visit everyone personally and tell each citizen individually how I stand on the important problems facing the state. Of course, the most important issue is integration in the public schools. As 1 stated when 1 announced my candidacy on March 12th, I am opposed to Integration in our public schools I believe in protecting racial integrity. We have the resources to educate children of all races under any system we deem best for the welfare of the state. Restoring the small farmer to his former position in our agriculture should have our Immediate attention. Unless some action is taken now, the little farmer is on his way out. I am for 90% of parity for basic agricultural crops. 1 am against any further tax on tobacco. Clean water is one of the great needs of this state. I have fought for that since 1947. We are making progress, and will within the next few years, have our streams in a healthier condition. Please remember that in all my legislative career I have never dodged an issue. I served as Pender County Representative in the General Assembly four terms (1945-1951). State Senator one term (1953). Chairman State Stream Sanitation Committee. Member North Carolina Farm Bureau. President Forest Farmers Association. Vice Chairman National Fruit and Vegetable Committee of the American Farm Bureau. 1 am a member of the Baptist Church and teacher of the Men's Bible Class. If elected Lieutenant Governor of this State, the welfare of all the people will be my first concern. Vote for the man who never dodges an issue. g. v. wutyji
