Mead said that many Communists who formerly ran from dcor to door scattering their handbills are now working for the good of the country but the reason is not their love for Cang@da ut only because their awn country, ‘which is their inâ€" spiration, has become a victim of the implacable Nazi war machine.

A 1941 Ford sedan, driven by Forâ€" tunat Cote of Hearst, Ontario, was travelling west on Third avenue when two boys were crossing the street.

These six places are ‘Winnipeg, Eximonton, Vancouver. Woodstock, Timâ€" ming and Montreal. That Timmins has taken up the idea with enthusiâ€" asm is proven by the fact that already | 229 boys have registered at Timmins. 229 Registered Here It is an odd fact that the Air Cadets have not yet been organized in Toronto. ‘This is not because the boys in that city fail in enthusiasm for the idea. On the contrary there have been inâ€" numerable enquiries from Toronto boys as to how they might enroll. The fault lies in the fact that no organizaâ€" tion or group of aduits in Toronto have yet sponsored the plan. Under the regulations in regard to the Air Cadets of Canada it is required that service clubs or similar organizations, or groups of businessmen, must sponsor and orâ€" ganize the units of the Air Cadets for their communities. In Timmins the sponsored and organized the Air Cadets here and already there are 229 living proofs of the soundness of the Sponsoring a Squadron According to Bruce Keiih, editor, Canadian ‘Air Cadet, the official A.C. of C. Magazine that will have its first copy on the newsstands in a few weeks, the job of sponsoring a squadron is important but not onerous. Recognized by R.C.A.F. "The Air Cadets of Canada," he said, "is the only organization recognized and supervised by the Royal Canadian Air Force. It forms a vital and farâ€" reaching movement that will be im=â€" portant, not only for the war effort, but insofar as the future of commerâ€" cial aviation in Canada is concerned. "Its plan is one of complete decenâ€" tralization. Each unit is responsible only to the board of directors of the Air Cadet League of. Canada, and to the RCAF. offticers charged with supervision of air cadet training." Whenever there are 50 or more young men 15, 16 or 17 years old, an air cadet unit can be established, Mr. Keith said. "Thei first step is to form a commitâ€" tee to sponsor a unit," he said. "If five or more responsible men band together, they can get permission from the deâ€" partment of national defence for air to form a cdommnittee. By applyâ€" ing to the honorary secretiary, the Air Cadet League of Canada, 122 Wellingâ€" ton St., Ottawa, and meeting the basic requh'emenis, they can get their unit going in a week." Cost Not Heavy Cost of running an air cadet flight is not heavy. Aithough the boys‘ undâ€" forms are cut from regulation air force oloth, and tailored to R.C.A.F. regulaâ€" tions, $15 will provide an AC. of C cadet with all his uniform. The govâ€" ernment, through the league, provides a grant of $1 per active senior cadet per year, and in many cases the cadets will share the uniform cost. oOonce a flight of 50 or more senior Air Cadets is running, a junior Air Cadet branch can be started, to take in boys of 12, 13 and 14 years of age. ‘The instructors, meantime, can be getting the senior Air Cadets stanted on their training, beginning with physiâ€" cal training, «drill and model building, taking two or more one or twoâ€"hour periods per week. ‘The training iplan is based. on 216 hours of instruction over a term covâ€" ‘ering two school years, with a final year for advanced specialized training. In these two years the cadets will have studied the same subjects that are provided in the intensive eightâ€" week ground training provided at initial training schools and elemenktary fiying training schools of the R.C.AJF. Administration, aircraft recognizaâ€" ~tion, armament ‘ (including shooting practice), and knotsy and splices are each sixâ€"hour subjects, based on eight study periods of 46 minutes each. Airframes, airmanship, first aid, maps and map reading and theory of flight are nineâ€"houw MJechs with 12 46â€" minute periods in each subject. _ Aero engines require 16 study periods; mathematics take 24 periods; there are 24 hours of games and physical training; signals take 36 study periods; there are 30 full hour periods at model building, and 36 hours of the two years qtstudyaremendinsquad,mmand squadron drill. PFPromoted After 108 Hours After the first 108 hours of training, the cadet rises from an air cadet secâ€" ond class to air cadet first class, and when the full basic training has been completed he becomes a leading air Information Available Any boys here interested in the Air Cadets of Canada can secure any inâ€" e y WE o{ruce i;mxrsmmmmbund- ing, or from any member of the Boys‘
