basic training, and graduates with the
rank of pilot officer. He undergoes a
six week course in officer develop-
ment, and a 36 week basic course be-
fore graduation.
The Radio Officer is an airborne
electronics specialist, His training is
more technical than any other air-
crew course because he must be pro-
ficient in the operation and airborne
maintenance of all radio and radar
gear in the aircraft. In order to reach
this level of knowledge he must learn
the fundamentals of radio and radar
and learn a great deal about all types
of electronics airborne equipment.
This training is assisted by various
synthetic electronics trainers, wherein
the Radio Officer conducts simulated
flights to any point in the world. Here
he sends and receives the internation-
al Morse code, receiving weather re-
ports and aircraft safety messages;
he simulates the blind bombing of a
target; he synthetically navigates an
aircraft by using various radar;• aids.
The culmination of his professional
training is when he undertakes his
flying training at RCAF Centralia,
where a number of AROS aircraft are
lodged. These flights range through.
out Canada, with the embryo radio
officers under the instruction of ex-
perienced radio officers.
In addition to technical training,
the radio officer receives considerable
military and executive training in or-
der to fit him for his career as an
RCAF officer. As part of this train-
ing, the flight cadets control their
own daily routine, with the senior
cadets being executive of "the Flight
Cadet Organization." They handle
their own officers' mess, parades and
minor discipline. They are governed
by an honour code, and are required
to adhere to high standards of deport-
ment and discipline. This training
parallels the military training of
Royal Military Colleges insofar as is
possible. Considerable attention is
given to instruction in sports and
drill,

\Vingham is a town which is more than ordinarily
fortunate in its natural endowments. Situated as we are
on the forks of the Maitland River, there are many spots
about the town which in their natural state could be most '•
attractive. The entrances to the community from north,
south and west bring the traveller in over one or other
branches of the Maitland.
Ilt)wever, in their present state these natural attrac-
tions do not add a great deal to the appearance of the place,
for they are practically unimproved. In fact on one of
the roadways into the town there is a healthy and thriving
dump. It was good news to hear that the local Lions
Club has undertaken the project of improving the northern
entrance to the town and we wish the men the very best
in their endeavour. The rebuilding of the bridges south
of the town, which should be completed this summer, offers

The dances which the arena commission has been I
sponsoring on the new floor in that building shonlii be
appreciated by the general public and patronized by as !
many as possible. The commission has been bringing- the
better class dance bands to Wing-ham, and it is their !
avowed intention to discourage attendance by the rough-
er element.
tated baldly as we have just done, the commission I
appears to be somewhat on the choosy side-hut we are
In: hearty agreement with their effort. There are many I
young people who like to dance, but who simply can't be
bothered doing so if it entails getting mixed up hi a rough I
and unruly crowd. They aren't killjoys .. . they are I
simply the people who don't get any fun out of the foul
language, incipient fights and general lack of manners
-which characterizes so many dances today.
There is a definite need in this community for regular
daiwing on an enjoyaMe plant, and we are happy to see
fhe arena commission making the effort. However. it
must be remembered by th , :•te who like to dart,!e tr.,:v1;
musk that these better bands cost money-quite a l"s of
money. The dances won't last long unless the attendance
