ball would have to be increased
to that of a football. Adding
insult to injury, the umpire was

glasses and a white cane. --
In more serious vein, the

military brushes for his splendid
effort end unselfish contribution
of time to the difficult task of
umpiring the Intersection League

Staff Officer Course
Members Graduate
Seven members of the ; second perieneed aircrew member must
expect to exchange the cockpit
or crew compartment for an of-
fice desk when he has proved his
ability to handle a larger job,
"that we may ensure that the
flying viewpoint is kept in the
forefront' of all Air Force ,activ-
ities, administrative as well as
operational."
His only regret about these
staff courses was that they were
not started sooner.
The Staff Radio Officer Course.
has been designed to meet the
changes in organization required
by the concept of the increasing
part radio is playing in military
aviation. These changes have
made evident the need for air-
crew officers specializing in air-
borne radio and radar operating,
to assist in the staff planning
of air operations. To fit these
officers for their future role the
course provided instruction in
radio theory, pedagogy, staff plan-
ning, effectivespeakieg and mili-
tary organization and personnel
management.
Following the graduation cere-
mony, tea was served in the
