AMORY TO ADDRESS AERONAUTS

Will Explain Requirements of Government Aerial Reserve Corps.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Roger Amory '10, chairman of last year's Undergraduate Aero Training Corps, will speak to all men interested in learning to fly at government schools next summer in Randolph 43, tomorrow evening at 7 o'clock. The government has recently made public the requirements for admission to the aerial reserve corps, which will be explained then.

The report of the committee in charge of the Undergraduate Aero Training Fund, as recently published, follows:

"The men who completed their courses are now desirous of additional training to qualify them as expert military aviators. Recent legislation at Washington has provided for an aerial reserve. Whether or not the War Department will take advantage of this legislation in such a manner as to make it practical for these Harvard men to become members of this reserve is still a matter of conjecture.

"The committee is now endeavoring to get co-operation from the government. Whether or not in the opinion of the committee the work should be continued another year depends largely on the attitude of the government in regard to the further training of the men who have already qualified as pilots.

"The committee wishes to express its appreciation of the interest extended by the sponsors, of the generous financial support of the Aero Club of America, graduates and others, and of the assistance and valuable advice given by those interested in the movement. Also the committee especially appreciates the co-operation of the schools and instructors, and above all else, the earnest, unfailing energy, patience and determination of those undergraduates who devoted their summer to this work and who are primarily responsible for the results obtained. ROGER AMORY '10.   ALLAN FORBES '97.   G. H. BALCH '12." The financial statement follows:

Contributions,  $9,028.06 Aero Club of America and Robert Bacon,  500.00 Undergraduate deposits,  900.00 Interest and bank balance  12.08 Total,  $10,440.14 Tuition and equipment,  $7,835.41 Administration,  845.74 Refund of deposits,  600.00 Exchange charges,  1.50 Cash balance,  1,157.49 Total,  $10,440.14
