Fourteen former University stu-
dents were among the thousands of
graduating pilots of the Army Air
Forces who recently won their silver
wings at 11 Advanced Pilot Schools
in the first graduating class of 1944.
Following on the heels of a year of
peak production of combat flyers,
this latest graduation of new fight-
ing pilots, from every state in the
Union and from foreign countries,
was the largest group yet turned out
at one time by these eleven fields.
Graduating from the bomber pilot
schools at Blackland Field, Brooks
Field and Lubbock Field, Tex., and
Altus Field, Okla., were Lt. Ulric O.
Allen, Lt. Robert J. Orr, Lt. John D.
Van Veen Jr., Lt. William J. Lalley,
Lt. Kenneth L. Kardon, Lt. John H.
Blumenstock, Lt. Robert H. Bellairs
and Lt. Charles W. Decker.
Graduating from the fighter pilot
schools at'Foster Field, Moore Field
and Aloe Field in Texas were Lt.
Benjamin S. Bricker, Lt. Milton F.
Coulson, Lt. John R. Corson, Lt.
Kenneth J. Finlayson, Lt. Dean D.
Willard and Lt. Arnott F. Tait.

customers can throw wet sponges at
girls.
Mick was flying around the DG
house one day when he suddenly ran
into what on the outside looked like
a large brown cloud, inside looked
like catacombs, and actually was a
sponge. Mick had always avoided
sponges because like an apple-pol-
isher they were mushy and like
Mick's publicity agent they were all
wet. And he was no match for a big
sponge, because he was only a little
squirt.
Inside of the sponge Mick met the
soupiest weather in his career, and
soon, having turned himself into a
combination airplane - ship - subma-
rine he was able to keep the motor
going, but he couldn't navigate out
of the sponge. The entire Michi-
bomber depended on Mick's getting
out of that sponge . . . will he make
it?
