said, is the great progress in such
things as atomic power, rapid
communications and
transportation, and the lack of
control over these things.
"Man," he said, "has the power
to control everything but
himself." We must renew our
true faith ..... if we are to have
the wisdom to control ourselves,
he added.
Another factor in the
present-day conflict and

confusion, Dr. Judd stated, is
internal conflict--on the age
front, the educational front, the
economic front, the racial
scene--within our own country.
However, he said, these same
things exist around the world.
Dr. Judd disagreed with the
assertion that "we must create a
moral order for our time." "We
already have one," he sa~
pointing out that following t'ne
moral order we always have had
is the only way to settle our
confusions and conflicts.

of the wing commander, will
continue to collect additional
dues needed to finance local
squadron operations. The NEC
stressed that wing commanders
have unlimited scope in
establishing policy for collection
of dues within their wings.
In conjunction with the new
system, each wing commander
was asked to advise National
Headquarters of the amount of
wing dues to be collected for
cadets and seniors within the
wing. The data pertaining to
these dues were reported by
wing commanders and included
in the mechanized system.
Accordingly, members due for
renewal will be notified to pay
the amount of dues specified by
the wing commander.
The new system requires
National Headquarters to notify

due to renew 60 days in advance
of his expiration date. Another
reminder is sent 30 days in

Maryland Gets
Financial Aid
FREDERICK, Md.--The
Frederick Composite Squadron
of the Maryland Wing reeently
received a financial shot in the
arm from two unexpected
sources in time to support its
summer s p e c i a l a c t i v i t i e s
program.
Frederick County
Commissioners appropriated
$300 for fiscal year 1970 after
receiving a letter for financial
support from the unit's former
commander, Lt. Col. Alfred C.
Denn, now serving as official
advisor to the Maryland Wing.
Another $300 donation was
made by the Frederick Women's
Civic Club who gave the money
to support the cadet activities.
This donation was made possible
through the efforts of a new
squadron member, SM Portia L.
Hutton.
Maj. Jeannie Maire, squadron
commander, said she is hopeful
the county appropriation will
become a source of annual funds
and thanked the two agencies
for their contributions to the
unit.

Summcr Activities A Success
Because of Members Support
I)) Brig. (,en. F. ~Xar(I Reill)
National (:hairma,,
We have just closed out a summer filled with productive
activity .... a summer which has seen this organization complete one
of the most successful summer activity programs ever undertaken by
Civil Air Patrol. Improvements were made in existing programs while
new ones such as the Nurse Orientation Course, the Communications
Electronics Course and the Survival Course were instituted. Virtually
every other cadet special activity course was expanded this summer
to increase substantially the numbers attending.
This is, without a doubt, the most encouraging
and promising aspect of the entire summer activity
program. It bespeaks a vigorous and dynamic
organization, a Civil Air Patrol advancing in tempo
with the swift thrust of the Space era.
On the Senior side, we had good response from
our pilots to the Federal Aviation Administration
courses at the FAA Academy at Will Rogers Field
and an equally gratifying response at the Senior
Member Staff College at National Headquarters. But these summer
activities just didn't happen. They had to be carefully planned,
closely supervised and efficiently administered.
And for the accomplishment of these functions, we hasten to
express sincere thanks and appreciation to the many Senior members
who volunteered for these demanding duties, as well as to the
highly.motivated and capable Air Force Reserve officers who helped
us make this summer program the huge success it was.
This spontaneous enthusiasm, the outstanding cooperation of all,
and in particular, the willingness of each CAP member to assume
individual responsibility in helping make the summer activity
program go is a source of great pride and satisfaction to myself and
members of your National Board.
On behalf of the Board, therefore, I want to extend to every
member who participated and helped, sincere appreciation and
thanks and urge that you continue to contribute, with pride and
with motivation, toward the goals and objectives of this
organization.

which has a nationwido
readership of more than 70,000.

Purpose of the school was to
develop the members' leadership
skill while teaching the group
ground search and rescue
techniques. The training was
divided into four categories
which included basic instruction
for beginners; an advanced
course for those with one
summer school and some ground
rescue experience; a special
advanced course for those
desiring more intensive training
and a course for senior members.
Those attending the course
were required to build
para-shelters, were given little
food and were taught how to
live off the land. They were
instructed in navigation; river
crossing; survival; cliff
rappelling; mountain climbing;
communications; first aid; and
securing crash sites.
The training activities began
daily at 5:30 a.m. and classes did
not end until I0 p.m. Those
beginning the course began the
day's activities with a brisk run
through an obstacle course and a
two-mile run before breakfast.
Robert

G.

Bartlett,

Pennsylvania State Secretary of
Highways and officials from
Pennsylvania State police, visited
the school to watch the training.

Those who attended the
training will have an opportunity
to test their skills at the Ranger
Competition to be held Oct. 4-5.

MONTGOMERY, Ala.--With
telephone and radio lines twisted
and devasted by the furious
attack of Hurricane Camille, two
Mississippi communities have
been relying on a Civil Air Patrol
father.son team in Montgomery
to relay messages between the
two areas.
The neighboring communities
of Ocean Springs and
Pascagoula, both on the
Mississippi Gulf coast, were
among the hardest hit.
By 1:00 a.m. Aug. 18,
Charles Brown, an air controller
at Dannelly Field, and his
19-year-old son, Turk, both
members of the Maxwell
squadron, began monitoring
radio messages out of the
storm-struck area.
Brown learned that CAP units
in Ocean Springs and Pascagoula
could send messages but could
not make contact with each
other. The Browns, who live at
3614 Berkley Drive,
Montgomery, provided the link
between the two cities, relaying
messages through their CAP
radio station.
They monitored more than
150 messages and relayed about
40 to and from these units.

Utah Wing Rescues Three Survivors Crash

COACH TALKS TO CAP-Ray Eliot, center, Associate

Maj. Gen. Walter B. Putnam, right, national commander of
Civil Air Patrol, following Eliot's address at the second annual
Civil Air Patrol National Staff College at Maxwell Air Force

160-odd senior members of CAP attending the gathering.

SALT LAKE CITY
Utah--Flying in the rugged
mountain country of Southern
Utah and Northern Arizona by
an experienced pilot proved fatal
recently to three persons.
A Cherokee Six aircraft
carrying six persons was found
crashed after a three-day search
by the Utah Wing of Civil Air
Patrol. Three of those aboard
the plane survived.
The Utah Wing utilized 96
rated CAP personnel, four
corporate and nine
privately-owned planes in the
search.
The missing Cherokee Six had
been rented from Dixie Air
Service at St. George, Utah, by
John Bury who was not
experienced in mountain flying.
He left St. George with four
passengers and landed at Cedar
City to pick up a fifth.
The party took off from

the meantime, one plane was
dispatched from Cedar City to
search in the Grand Canyon
district.
Since Bury was not
experienced in mountain flying,
Maj. B. C. Morrison, mission
coordinator, assumed that his
route would be up Cedar
Canyon from Cedar City into
the high mountains. In addition,
he assumed that, since the plane
was heavily loaded and the
density altitude high, the plane
would not be able to climb as
fast as the valley floor under it.
The search, therefore, was
confined to the high country.

MAXWELL AFB, Ala.--Based
on the success of the 1969
International Air Cadet
Exchange officials are already
planning to expand next year's
program to include additional
nations to the 25 already taking
part in the program. It is
planned that three countries will
be added annually to the lACE,
said Maj. Joseph E. Wierzbicki,
CAP-USAF IACE chief.
Inc~ded in this year's
program were cadets from Asia
and the Pacific areas who joined
hands with those from Europe,
Near East,"North and South
America in the International Air
Cadet Exchange.
The Exchange, which this
year involved participation by
more than 200 Civil Air Patrol
cadets and a similar number of
their foreign counterparts, is
designed to foster international
good will, understanding and
fellowship among the youth of
the world through a common
interest in aviation.

organization which sponsored the international
dinner at the Press Building for visiting cadets
and their escorts.

The program which began in
1948 with an exchange of cadets
between the Air Cadet League of
Canada and the Civil Air Patrol,
has been conducted annually
since that date. The 1969
Exchange marked the largest
total number of cadets ever to
participate as well as the greatest
number of countries. The
visiting cadets came from 25
foreign countries and the British
Crown Colony of Hong Kong.
This was the 22nd
consecutive year the CAP cadets
have participated in the
Exchange, one of the national
highlights of CAP's Special
Activities program. It was also
the second year female cadets
participated with visits to Great
Britain, Belgium, Israel and
Switzerland.
The cadets were selected
from wings in the 50 states,
Puerto Rico and the District of
Columbia to travel overseas.
Great Britain exchanged 44
cadets, Canada 17 and France

Kong. The three were among a contingent from
the British Crown Colony visiting the United
States under the CAP-sponsored International
Air Cadet Exchange.

years and some 6,000 cadets
have taken part in the program.
Funds for the program in this
country are provided by the
Civil Air Patrol and the United
States Air Force. Air Force

"and the United Nations kept the
group busy the remainder of the
time.
A gala international ball, held
in the grand ballroom of the
lavish Waldorf Astoria Hotel,
closed out the visit to New York
City.
United Nations dignitaries
representing those countries on
the exchange were among the
more than 300 persons attending

Maj. Gen. and Mrs. Walter B.
Putnam. General Putnam lauded
the members of the New York
Wing of Civil Air Patrol for their
part in hosting what has become
the international social
highpoint of the exchange.
Each year Civil Air Patrol
sponsors the exchange to
promote international goodwill,
understanding and fellowship
among the youth of the free
world through a common
interest in aviation.
After touring their various
host Civil Air Patrol wings
throughout the United States,
the foreign cadets assembled in
Washington, D.C., Aug. 5, and
had dinner at the Everglades
Room of the Mangar Annapolis
Hotel at 6 p.m. Senior escorts

The visitors left the United

Washington, D.C. for
Rhein-Main, Germany, the Canal
Zone or their home countries
with a better understanding of
America, aviation, and the Civil
Air Patrol.
Approximately 450 Cadets
from 15 nations gathered at
Rhein-Main Air Base, Germany,
Aug. 12, in the return phase of
the 1969 International Air Cadet
Exchange.
Upon their return to
Rhein-Main the cadets were
guests at a farewell banquet at
the Officers' Open Mess. Guest
speaker at the banquet was Brig.
G e n . C h a r l e s E . Ye a g e r ,
vice-Commander of 17th Air
Force.
General Yeager spoke to the
cadets about aircraft and flying,
brining with him the best
credentials any speaker can
have--expfrieqc~., ~The. general,,
who made Air Force hist, oD' in

1947 when he became the first
man to fly faster than the speed
of sound in the Bell X-l, related
many of his experiences as one
of the nation's leading test
pilots. He demonstrated,
through the use of a film, how
work that he and other test
pilots and researchers did as
much as 10 years ago, laid the
groundwork for missions such as
Apollo 11.
In this age of space flight and
Moon walks, General Yeager's
talk impressed upon the minds
of the young cadets the
significance of research and
development in the area of
astronautics.
One of the many Civil Air
Patrol units hosting foreign
cadets was the Michigsn Wing's
Clarkston Composite Sq. which
o pened its headquarters at
Oakland-Pontiac Airport
Terminal for a luncheon meeting
in their honor. While Michigan
Wing Cadet Council greeted the
Belgian visitors, Col. Charles
Klann, wing commander, Harold
Richardson, Pontiac Airport and
Clark Crydermann of Cryderman
Air Service, gave them an aerial
sightseeing tour of the area.
Welcoming the visitors to
Oakland County was Michigan
State Representative Loren
Anderson. The cadets were given
a demonstration of a helicopter's
capabilities by Lt. Don Kratt
a n d Te r r y C r a n s t o n o f t h e
Oakland County Sherriff's
Department.
Sunday afternoon the cadets
and council members swam in
Crangerry Lake and then were
the guests of Col. and Mrs.
Charles Klann at a picnic
featuring grill steaks. The cadets
toured Control Data
Corporation, Rochester, Mich.,
the next day, to see how line
printers are manufactured for
computers. They later lunched
at the Rochester Elks' Club and
went on a walking tour of
Clarkston's business district.
The next day the group bid
farewell to their Michigan hosts,
promised to write and expressed
their appreciation for the time
of fun and friendship and took a
flight to Washington, D.C. The
group said that its members were
impressed with the friendliness
of the community, thanked host
families for their courtesy and
liked the American Way of Life.
