Pre-Flight School
Course At Athens)
The course at the Pre-Flight School
at Athens, Ga., includes military and
academic programs as well as physgical
training1. Included are infantry
drill and military tactics, seamanship,
navigation, ordnance, first
aid and signals. Academic work will
consist of mathematics, physics and
an intensive study in nomenclature
and recognition of both allied and
enemy planes and. warships. Another
course covers essentials of Naval
Service which will indoctrinate cadets
with the traditions of the Service and
American Naval and Military history.
To produce a body-hardened, alert
prospective aviator, the Pre-Flight
Schools have installed a physical
training program rated' the most
strenuous and complete ever undertaken
by any college or organization
in this country. In a nine-sports curriculum,
the cadet will learn the teamwork,
coordination and timing of
football; experience the strain, body
contact and individual courage of boxing
and Wrestling; attain the speed
and involuntary accuracy of basketball,
soccer and tumbling; become
proficient in attained swimming under
abnormal conditions; toughen
himself with cross-country hikes and
hard, manual labor. Supervised mass
calisthenics is a part of the daily
routine.
Patterned after the( U. S. Naval
Academy as far a4- possible, the
school will produce likely flying officers
who know how to give commands
as well as receive and execute
orders. Strict discipline is in force
with each platoon under an experienced
officer.
In addition to taking over certain
facilities of the University of
Georgia, the Navy has added considerable
equipment to create a complete
pre-flight school. Among these
are medical, dental and supply departments.
There is a Navy Chaplain
assigned to the station.
Hie cadets are quartered in modern
dormitories on the University of
Georgia campus. A carefully-supervised
diet supplies and abundance of
program. ' ;

News Regarding
Cadet B. B. Turnage
Athena, Ga—The rapidly-increasing
cadet ranks at the new U. S.
Navy Pre-Flight School here include
Bernice B. Turnage of Farm vi lie, N.
C.
Cadet Turnage, attached to Company
C, Platoon Three, was a member
of this year's graduating class at
Davidson College where he was a letterman
in wrestling and soccer and
active in track.
In addition, he completed the CAA
primary training course and is credited
with 20 dual time hours and 25
solo hours. He has two years RGTC
instruction.
Successful completion of the work
here will send Cadet Turnage to one
of the Navy's primary flight centers,
then on to advanced instruction and
finally an operational base. The entire
pilot trianing period1 covers 12
months. , . The
four new Pre-Flight Schools
are the Navy's answer to the need
for physically-toughened, conditioned
airmen to whip the Axis. In addition
to the southern school, located on the
University of Georgia campus, others
have been established at the University
of North Carolina, East; University
of Iowa, Mid-West, and St.

State College Hints
J?or Farm Homemakers
By Rath Current,
State Home Deatr otratton Agent,
' N. C. State College.
Every garment in active service ia
a good slogan for the patriotic homemaker.
Keeping this slogan in mind, why
not divide the family clothing into
the following groups; (1) Those garments
ready for use; (2) those garments
needing repairs; (S) those
garments that can be remodeled; and
(4) those which can be used for
other purposes.
Not even hopeless garments should
be discarded.
When buying materials be sure
what the fabrics are made of and
whether they will fade, shrink or
lose their finish when cleaned or
washed. (
Appropriate, comfortable, durable
clothes are necessary to every family's
efficiency and /norale.
In view of the shortage of new
pressure cookers and the absolute
necessity of canning all food possible,
pressure cookers—both old and new—
should be looked upon as a trust
from the Nation. Patriotic {dans
should be made, therefore, so that
each pressure cooker available will
serve several families. Not only
will you be patriotic to lend your
pressure eooker but help your neighbor
or friend use it if she does not
know now.
