CLINTON BOWLING ALLEY >448 s ` Clinton Airwoman Operats Radar "Scope" Airwoman June Bailie is operating the Radar "receiver" and passing the information on air- craft on to the "Sur- veillance Room", where this information will be plotted on a large map a to b 1 e and identified. Until recently, Air- Woman Bailie was a stenographer employed by the Household Fin- ance Corporation in London, and was re- cently posted to Clin- ton to receive training there. (RCAF Photo) RCAF Station Clinton, Trains Recruits "Air Defence of Canada" Programme To the instructor in the Fighter Control trade of the RCAF, teach- ing young trainees from all over Canada in the various phases of detecting, identifying and inter- cepting enemy aircraft, the slogan is the "Air Defence of Canada." On a portion of RCAF Station Clinton a small temporary struc- ture houses the administrative anct training headquarters of Air De- fence training. It is from this building that the instructorstep forth to the classrooms to mold arid guide the inexperienced young men and women. Instruction is given in "the theory of Radar, Meteorology, Navigation, Proced- ures and Organization", all of which play an equally important part in enabling our fighter pilots to intercept and destroy enemy aircraft before they reach indust- rial centres and heavily populated areas. To Airwoman June Bailie, a re- cent addition to the Fighter Con- trol, this is an entirely different life. June,, was a stenographer employed by the Household Fin- ance Corporation in London, Ont. She decided that she would be interested in what • the Airforce had to offer young ladies of 18, like herself. She became familiar with barrack life, the mess hall and the drill sergeant at Manning Depot. Then June was selected for Fighter Control and was post- ed to Clinton just as summer ar- rived. June found a station under constructive enlargement and has since been pleased with such im- provements as a new and bigger mess hall and a new training build- ing with the latest in classroom LONGER WEAR WITH CHRYCO Cycl4ebond LININGS They're rivetless!

CHRYSLER—PLYMOUTH FARGO DEALERS stylings. The training of June and the many, others on course with her, consists of five weeks of classroom lectures and terminates with four weeks of practical demonstration and application. In organization the student is taught the Air De- fence system, the reporting chain of information and the responsibil- ities of the various personnel em- ployed on the warning stations. Procedure teaches her the correct methods of speech and the words -used between combat pilots and ground controllers. Navigation in- structs how to determine an air- craft's position ahead if necessary and to determine the point and time of interception. In meteor- ology the student is taught to read weather reports and fcrecasts and to interpret weather maps. To citmplete the classroom instruction the trainee learns the basic prin- ciples of how the radar equipment operates, beginning with the elec- tron theory and ending with sta- tistics of the various equipment. The first five weeks move fairly fast and the students are required to be on their toes if they are to be successful in making good grades in the many tests encount- ered with each subject. June must spend a lot of time on her own studying the material from each day and•cramming before the ex- aminations, but still finds time to attend the Saturday night dance in the "Roc" Centre, play minia- ture golf, attend the Stai:ion Thea- tre and swim in the Station pool. The students are well aware that consistent failure will mean re- selection to some lower position in the RCAF. Having listened to the instructor lecture for five weeks, the students are ready to be shown the equip- ment and taught how to operate it properly. They start in the Radar Reporting Room where through a system of synthetic trainers, they see their firist "track", either friendly or hostile, on the Radar tube. Reading the Radar tube is similar to watching television at home. In the Radar Reporting Room they are demonstrated the differences between aircraft, tall buildings, clouds and ships as they would appear on any radar "scope" at any warning .mit.. They are taught to pass this information correctly to the Surveillance room: In the Surveillance room the in- formation is "plotted" on a large map table and is identified as either friendly or hostile. The stu- ' dents spend a lot of time in this room before they are thoroughly familiar with their responsibilities in the many positions that they must fill. Near the completion of the nine week course they move into the Operations Room. It is to this room that the filtered in- formation is passed from the Sur- veillance room. The information could consist of enemy aircraft, unidentified aircraft or aircraft in distress. As this information is displayed on the map table, the Controller prepares and sends up our fighter aircraft to intercept and destroy or to assist as may be necessary. The trainee should now be ready to be'einployed in the "field" where the Radar Warning Unit are already at work night and day. In order to ensure that the stu- dent is prepared, one more test is necessary; a final conclusive test that covers all phases. If they succeed here, they are 'on their way to any of the Air Warning Stations where their a5sistance•is required. When the graduates of Fighter Control take their position in the field and begin to gain confidence in their ability, theydare first of all amazed at the immensity of the system. The training establishment at Clinton cannot possibly simulate an actual Warning Unit, although it does prepare the students, on a smaller scale. Here, in the field they see efficiency at work. They are a witness to the different ser- vices, such as Anti -Aircraft Artil- lery and the civilian operated Ground Observers Corps with their many outposts, participating in providing the Controller with as much information as possible a- bout aircraft movement. Some of the graduate operators, after some experience, may be sent out to assist the formation of Ground Observer Centres. This voluntary group of civilian observers must be highly commended for their assist- ance in the Defence of Canada, working on their own time and on a limited budget. With the experience of a month or so in the field and with a chance to work many "shifts", the Fighter Control Operator is no longer a student but an eager par- ticipant in the overall work of pro- tecting Canada from attack by air.

TNECOVPf SPORTS GOLUNNW if &owe ?elefredefe 1 got a chuckle the other day over a story which said the new pin-up boy in Ireland. is a horse, and that "A Day in the Life of Tulyar" is the rage of the Sunday supple- ments, This, we think, could happen only in Ireland, a country that not merely loves its and in fact, owns oneoinethe pers n of T yamagnii:icent animals, For Tulyar is the nation's horse. A few months ago, the Irish Parliament, or Dail, approved the expenditure of $700,000 for the purchase of a stallion named Tulyar from the fabulous Indian sportsman, the Aga Khan. Tulyar is reputed to be the horse of the century. He was undefeated as a 3 -year old in the British Isles, where a racer has to run more than six furlongs and with as much as 150 pounds on his back. The purchase of Tulyar didn't argument. After all, it happened in members of Parliament contended price" for an animal in a country But the more liberal members won Tulyar was a good investment in the dustry, pass the Dail without an Ireland. The Conservative $700,000 was a "luxury facing an economic crisis. their point, 60 to 23, that national horse breeding in - So Tulyar became a property of the government. He be- longs to the Irish National Stud Farm in Tully, County Kildare. The Irish are individualistic, if any race is, and they see nothing inconsistent in nationalizing the noble horse. Imagine the consternation on Ottawa's Parliament Hill if some sporting member advocated the purchase of Native Dancer for a million or so, for the purpose of improving the breed of racing animals in Canada. But, of course, race -horses don't mean so much to Canada as they do to Ireland. In Ireland, the horse is big business. Export of horses is to Ireland almost what General Motors is to the United States or the gold, silver, lead and zinc products to Canada. Tulyar, the people's horse, will bring many a pound into Ireland. Not so many as the Irish sweep -stakes net, of course, but quite a tidy sum, you may be sure. An American syndicate headed by Jack Dempsey, Los Ang- eles insurance man (not the ex -pugilist) bid more than a million for Tulyar. The Moslem Aga Khan may have felt in conscience that the steed belonged to Ireland and took a cut in price. The Aga Khan was criticized in London for allowing Noor to get away from him. Hence he was sensitive about Tulyar. Noor was Irish -bred, and beat Citation every time out. Tulyar is held to be an Irish horse, because he was trained on the emerald green grass of the Ould Sod for his English victories.
