Adopts Couple
ANDREWS AFB, Md. -- The
Andrews Composite Squadron
[National Capital Wing) continues to stand out in its
program of humanitarian efforts.
The squadron has adopted an
elderly couple located in
southern Prince Georges County
who were in need of assistance.
Although extremely proud, the
couple found themselves in the
position of not being able to do
heavy physical chores.
After reading about the
couple's plight in a local newspaper, the squadron formed a
work team of cadets under the
direction of CAP Lt. Arlyce
Perry to chop wood, clean up the
yard and do other odd jobs. The
squadron even provided some
much needed furniture for the
couple.
What originally was planned to
be a one time visit soon turned
into a regular scheduled project.
Lieutenant Perry summed it up
when she said, "It's not normally part of our program, just
something nice to do."

Record Saves
During March
MAXWELL AFB, Ala. -- Civil
Air Patrol members from Idaho
and Wyoming were given credit
in early March for saving the
lives of three persons as a result
of their emergency services
operations.
CAP pilots Tom McLaughin
and Jim Holman from Idaho's
Wing saved the life of a hospital
patient in Bonner's Ferry, Idaho
through the timely airlift of badly needed human blood.
The two flew from Coeur
d'Alene, Idaho to Spokane,
Wash., and returned with the
blood for a patient who was suffering from internal bleeding.
Aerial search teams from the
Wyoming Wing saved the lives of
two men who crashed in a light
aircraft near Rawlins, Wyo.
CAP searchers were called into
action when the families of the
two crash victims reported that
they had failed to return.
Flying at night, wing pilots

signal and located the crash site.
This was fortunate; because by
morning, the ELT battery was
dead. A private helicopter then
airlifted the victims who were
suffering from broken backs and
other injuries to a hospital.
The pair had been flying at low
altitude when their aircraft hit
an area of turbulence and as they
attempted to pull up the craft
stalled and crashed. After
rescue, one of the men said,
"The CAP plane flying over our
location kept us going and
a w a k e . We , k n e w y o u k n e w

up hope."
These saves brings to 16 the
number of lives CAP members
have saved this year.

Decatur Un it Sponsors
Safety Seminar For 30
DECATUR. Ala.--More than 30 pilots attended a General Aviation
safety seminar sponsored by the Decatur Senior Squadron here.
The seminar featured an informative program presented by Ralph
Edwards. the local General Aviation District Office - Federal Aviation
Administration accident prevention specialist.
His program was aimed at "Preflight Inspection and Planning"
along with films and demonstrations pertaining to general aviation
safety in flight. A special presention film regarding Alaska flying was
included in the program. Also. the Vertigo chair was challenged by all,
but was never defeated.
A continuous question and answer exchange allowed all attendees to
receive a first hand and official answer from the FAA representative
along with those presented to the CAP panel of flight information advisors.
A future meeting is planned to encompass local Flight Service Station
services in a continuing effort to update and keep general aviation
pilots in the area current with their flying practices and Federal Aviation Regulation obligations.

Brabit's Dream Comes True
In Emergency l rvices Work
ANNVILLE, Pa. -- "It's like a
dream coming true," said CAP
2d Lt. John Brabits of Pennsylvania's Group 30, as he explained his role in emergency
services operations in Civil Air
Patrol and Civil Defense.
Lieutenant Brabits, who is the
CD coordinator for his unit as
well as assistant director of the
Dauphin County CD, recently
designed a successful system
linking hospital and ambulance
communications together.
The revisions were made on a
no selective broadcasting console
installed as a part of the county's
fire, police and ambulance
system at the Dauphin County
C o n t r o l C e n t e r. T h e r e v i s e d
system enables five area
hospitals to contact each other
and to talk directly with ambulances en route to the hospital.
Each hospital has a remote unit
in its emergency room.
Also a unique advantage of the

In Memoriam

J. L. Pettis

system is that hospitals can connect and talk to each other. Lt.
Brabits made it work as an intercom and these communications
will not go over the broadcast
band.
It was during the Agnes storm
in 1972 that Brabits learned of
CAP's well planned communications network and immediately joined. He has since
succeeded in getting CAP communications installed in the
county's communications center
in the court house.
The lieutenant's dream of being involved in emergency services has "truly become a
reality."

Pilot Scores
First 'Find'
H A RT S V I L L E , S . C . - - C i v i l
Air Patrol pilot Capt. Carroll
Jordan was recently called upon
for assistance by local law enforcement personnel when
adverse weather conditions here
hampered their ground search efforts for a missing resident.
With a local mission number in
his pocket, Captain Jordan took
off from the Hartsville Airport
and within 30 minutes had
spotted the missing man's
automobile.
He then directed a ground
team to.the location from the air
and the man's body was located
near the car in a heavy wooded
area.

MAXWELL AFB, Ala. -Congressman Jerry L. Pettis
(Rep. Calif.) a member and
long time supporter of Civil
Air Patrol died last month
when his light aircraft crashed some four miles northwest
of Beaumont, Calif.
Pettis, a popular
Republican, was the only
person aboard the singleengine plane when it went
down in rugged terrain in the
area of Cherry Valley.
The 59-year-old congressman served as a pilot and flight
instructor during World War
II and was a member of the
Air Line Pilots Association.
In the House he was a member of the Science and Astronautics Committee and the
Ways and Means Committee.
He held the rank of CAP
lieutenant colonel in the
organization's Congressional
Squadron and was deputy
commander of that unit.

This was the first local mission
in '75 for the Darlington County
Composite Squadron and Captain
Jordan's first find.

NATIONAL BOARD MEETING SITE -- The symbol of St. Louis, Missouri, to the rest of the
world has become the Gateway Arch -- a 630-foot high stainless steel structure with the shape
of an inverted catenary curve. Civil Air Patrol's 1975 National Board Meeting will be held in
this mid-west city on October 2-5. The site of the meeting will be Stouffers Riverfront Towers.
The cylindrical tower which can be seen in the photo immediately behind the left side of the
famous arch is a part of the Stouffers' facility. Information concerning registration, program

OUTLOOK

I Dare You To Be Reasonable
by Chaplain (Col.) Joseph r. O'Brien, USAF
Everyone admires a hero. We are thrilled by the
courage of a man who faces danger without
flinching. We are impressed, too, by the man who
refuses to be defeated by difficulty, disease, or disaster. We like the man who does not weep in the
face of trouble, or run away from responsibility.
We know that life is not all peaches and cream. We
know that every life must weather its share of
storm and stress; and so we respect those who are
strong enough to oppose difficulty with strength,
danger with courage, and death without fear.
The danger we must avoid in all of this is to be
unreasonable or foolhardy, like flying through a
storm rather than flying around the storm, or not
flying at all; or like driving a long distance so the
wife and children will not have to spend another
day on the road when another day would perhaps
mean no accident; or like getting out of bed witha
fever or a virus infection and going to work when

complete bed rest would be the doctor's orders.
Courage, strength, dedication, loyalty, stick-toitiveness, or a never-give-up-or-quit attitude may
be predicated of the foolish and unwise as well as
the prudent and virtuous.
It is reason therefore that tells a man when his
daring is excessive and foolhardy and unlikely to
succeed. It is reason that tells a man who cannot
swim that he could not jump into the swollen river
to save the drowning child. Courage, like all the
other virtues, follows the mean of reason. It pursues the light path between excessive fear and excessive daring; it is neither the eowardiee of the
timid and fearful, nor the foolhardiness of the
reckless and inexperienced. It is the sure strength
of the virtuous, rational man. It gives a man the
strength to endure pain and even death, when they
cannot be avoided; it gives him power to face
danger and overcome it, when it can be overcome.
PITCH-IN -- Cadets from California's Group 22 pitch tents at
Camp Pendleton, Calif., for their Class B Encampment recently. Thirty-five cadets took part in the four-day encampment
which included instruction on survival by members of the Army
Reserve. CAP Capt. Gene Ware was the encampment commander for the exercise which was named "Operation Yucca.
Bunny."

Group VII Conducts
'All'r Cadet Exercise
BAY CITY, Michl -- Civil Air Patrol pilots flew cadet observers on
10 sorties to locate two targets recently as Group VII held their second
all cadetpractice search and rescue exercise.
Twenty-three cadets from the Bay City and Saginaw Composite
Squadrons, were alerted a few hours prior to the exercise thus giving
them their first opportunity to use their alert roster without previous
warning.

Ex-cadet Becomes Commander

The first target was a missing snowmobile enthusiast who was lost
on the Bayshore near the mouth of the Kawkawlin River. After
several leads were received by the eager cadet searchers, the victim
was spotted by Cadet SSgt. Steve Sheehan who was flying With CAP
1st. Lt. Roy Loiselle.
A short time later a ground team recovered the target.
Their second search began when notification was received that an
elderly gentleman had wandered away from his home. After leads
were gathered, the search was on and some three hours later the
target was located.
As their practice exercise closed, CAP Lt. Col. D. D. Woods, commander of Group VII, intercepted a call for assistance to search for
two persons whose snowmobiles had broken through the ice on
Saginaw Bay.
For the next hour, Colonel Woods searched the area in his aircraft
assisting local law enforcement personnel in the search. As the search
intensified it was learned that only one snowmobile was involved and
the driver's body was located.

SER Announces New Activity
PELL CITY, Ala.--The Southeast Region has announced a new cadet
special activity for 1975. The SER Cadet Staff College for 209 cadets
will be held at Samford University, Birmingham, Ala., from July 6-12.
The Cadet Staff College is primarily designed for cadet NCOs,
however all cadets are welcome.
Cadets should apply on CAP Form 31 to their Wing Headquarters by
May 1. The cost of the activity will be $35. Additional information may
be obtained by writing the Project Officer, CAP Maj. Ronald W. Hanson, Alabama Wing, 908 S. 20th St., Birmingham, AI. 35205.

From The Commander

Military Airliftby Brig. Gen. Leslie J. Westberg,
USAF, National Commander
Today all of us are acutely aware
that due to inflation our dollars have
less buying power. Furthermore, the
Air Force budget has been cut
s i g n i fi c a n t l y. T h i s l e a v e s u s w i t h
even fewer of these inflated dollars to
accomplish the primary mission -national defense.
Additional sacrifices must be made
to remain within our mandatory
budget constraints. Just as you and I
are doing with our
own budget, the
Air Force has
been forced to
-make some tough
choices. Programs
which are not absolutely essential
to our national
defense posture
have to be reduced or eliminated.
Reductions are being made in three
general areas -- manpower, travel
funds, and equipment. The decrease
in manpower and travel funds will
affect our liaison mission somewhat,
but reduction in equipment will have

A New Ball Game

a significant bearing on CAP member
travel.
When faced with the first indications of budget reductions the Air
Force decided to retire all
reciprocating engine aircraft from
the active fleet. These aircraft, mostly transport type, historically have
been used to fly support missions
which included CAP member airlift.
The aircraft are old and becoming
more and more expensive to operate
and maintain. In short, they have outlived their usefulness. By streamlining the aircraft fleet, direct savings
realized by the Air Force will be considerable. The money saved can be
used to buy needed weapons systems
important to our national defense.
According to current plans, the aircraft (including our five region T-29s)
will be retired by July I, 1975.
Loss of these aircraft will obviously
decrease the airlift support for our
CAP programs and activities. My
staff has been researching possible
alternative airlift for the past year,
but no real solution is visible at this
time. All active major air commands
which possess transport aircraft have
told us they will be unable to fulfill

our airlift requirements due to command directed missions and/or
budgetary constraints. We will continue to seek relief at all command
levels until all possibilities are completely exhausted. Our current objective is to secure enough airlift to support our national and selected region
level programs. However, it is possible that airlift even for these important programs may not be available.
With thege facts in mind, consider
the following information when
planning to attend future CAP activities:
A distinct possibility exists that
,o military aircraft will be available.
In this event, you will be required to
provide your own transportation to
and from activities. Be financially
prepared to defray your transportation costs.
All travel on military aircraft will
be limited to mission essential personnel. Generally, this means actual
participants in approved activities.
CAP Regulation 76-2 still defines
approved CAP activities and CAP
passengers with respect to military
aircraft travel. Travel Authorizations
(TAs) will be closely monitored Air

Force wide. Do not ask for military
a i r l i f t u n l e s s y o u p o s s e s s a TA

10-3 and signed by your region or wing
LO.
Without our own assigned airc r a f t , w e c a n n o l o n g e r a ff o r d t o
make multiple passenger pickups
within the regions. In most cases,
pickup and delivery points will be
limited to a central location in each
region. You will be responsible for
transportation between your home
and designated pickup points.
Funds for the rental aircraft
program have also been cut. Very little airlift can be realized from these
aircraft since fund availability will
limit them almost exclusively to supporting the USAF-CAP LO mission.
I admit that the picture I have
painted for you looks bleak, but these
are the facts we must face. We all
must maintain a high degree of flexibility when planning to attend future
activities. I would like to emphasize
again that my staff will continue to
pursue every possible source to obtain enough airlift support for coming
CAP activities.

Chairman's Comments

The Man In The Blue Suit
by Brig. Gen. William NI. Patterson,
CAP, National Board Chairman
Some years back the movie makers of
Hollywood decided to dramatize the advertising profession. Two rather memorable motion
pictures resulted.
In one the dashing, handsome Clark Gable
played the role of the hard hitting advertising
account executive. He and Sidney Greenstreet
insured that "The Hucksters" was to be both a
box office and an artistic success.
The other movie with
Gregory Peck in the title role, also dealt with
the advertising world
and was titled "The
Man in the Gray
Flannel Suit". It too
told the story of
Madison Avenue
hucksters who make
their living and sell their customer's products
by dreaming up such slogans as, "Ask the man
who owns one", "Don't Squeeze the Charmin",
"You're in Good Hands with All State".
What's the connection, what has all of this to
do with Civil Air Patrol?
Civil Air Patrol has had a marketing and/or
visibility problem of ratker enormous proportions for the past five or six years. Much of this
can be attributed to the Southeast Asia situation and the anti-military spin-off that resulted.
However, we, you and I -- the membership -have also been guilty of not working hard
enough at projecting the proper CAP image.
We l l t h e o t h e r d a y G e n e r a l We s t b e r g ,
General Turner, Colonel Casaday, Gordon Weir
and myself found CAP's number 1 ad man. He
took over our advertising account without
solicitation, without remuneration and with unbelievable enthusiasm. He won the job hands
down! Only be was wearing the Air Force blue
and not a grey flannel pin stripe.

Who did we get? None other than the Number

possible to make the Air Force-CAP team a
strong, viable force. One that needs understanding, visibility and support both within the Air
Force and throughout the civilian community.
That same evening he reiterated these convictions to those Congressman and members of
the National Board who attended Civil Air
Patrol's Congressional Dinner. All of us came
away with a feeling of belonging, of being needed and appreciated. It was heart warming and
inspiring on both occasions to hear the Air
Force's top man tell it like he believes it is or
should be.
No "pie in the sky" promises were made. But
the wheels have started to turn. By the time
you read this General Westberg and his staff
will have worked feverishly throughout a long
weekend to put together a comprehensive and

Headquarters, USAF. Why? Because General
Jones asked for it as be wants every member of
his staff and all Air Force people to be
thoroughly conversant with Civil Air Patrol's
structure, missions and problems.
I believe he will challenge Air Force people
at all levels to help solve the problems facing
the USAF-CAP team. If I'm any judge of
character and leadership, and I think I am, I
believe this uncommon man with the common
name will insist" that every effort be made by
everyone in a blue uniform so as to insure that
Civil Air Patrol is able to carry out its missions and responsibilities in an effective and
professional manner. He intends to see that
this is accomplished and I know he expects us
to do our part.
We all know the product is good and the price
is right. Now we must get outand sell it. When

Jones Gives CAP
Pat On The Back

THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON

March 5, 1975

(Editor's Note: The following article, which appeared in the March 19, 1975
issue of the Air Force TIMES, is reprinted here with their permission and for your
information.)

WASHINGTON -- The Civil Air Patrol should be thought of
as more than an "auxiliary" of the Air Force, said U.S. Air
Force Chief of Staff Gen. David C. Jones.
Like the Air National Guard and Air Reserve, CAP,performs
a vital role in the total force picture, he said.
Jones was one of several military and congressional
dignitaries at a dinner hosted here by CAP during its annual
"Report to Congress" activities.
Another speaker was Sen. John Stennis (D-Miss.) who was
presented with a life-size bronze bust of himself by the CAP's
Mississippi Wing.
The sculptor, CAP Lt. Col. Sam Gore, chairman of the Art
Department at Mississippi College, is a member of the
Mississippi Wing. The wing was named first in the nation
among the 52 CAP wings for its 1974 achievements in search
and rescue work, civil defense emergencies ind aerospace
education and training.
Jones and Stennis praised CAP for providing more than 80
percent of the inland air searches and rescue hours flown in the
states annually. Stennis said the organization lends moral support to the nation through its direct contact with the civilian
community when performing rescue operations.
CAP's annual Report to Congress is required by the Act of
Congress which incorporated the organization in 1946. The outfit was established in 1941 and it became an official auxiliary
of the Air Force in 1948.
In addition to its emergency service work, CAP conducts a
nationwide aerospace education program and a leadership
training program for teenagers. National Headquarters is at
Maxwell AFB, Ala. CAP is not a Federal agency but a civilian
organization with more than 60,000 members.

Dear General Patterson:
"I welcome the opportunity of this Annual Civil Air Patrol
Congressional Dinner to salute you and your colleagues in
t h e C i v i l A i r P a t r o l o n y o u r i m p o r t a n t r o l e i n o u r s o c i e t y.
I have long appreciated and admired your dedicated voluntary
service to your fellow citizens. "four history embraces
case after case of courageous action in time of need. The
deep-rooted huma~ concern of Civil Air Patrol members
serves as a splendid example for all Americans to emulate.
I send my very best wishes to each of you and to the disting u i s h e d g u e s t s w h o a t t e n d y o u r C o n g r e s s i o n a l D i r m e r.

Controllers Avert Disaster
HARTSVILLE, S.C. -- Recent
actions taken by Air Force radar
controllers and a Civil Air Patrol
pilot are probably responsible for
avoiding a serious mid-air collision between aircraft and
parachute jumpers.
CAP members from the
Darlington County Squadron, including pilot 1st Lt. John Dixon.
Capt. Herman Chafin and a
passenger were returning from
Columbia, S.C., where they had
attended a wing staff meeting
when they requested radar surveillance from Shaw AFB, S.C.
The crew was alerted to be on
the look-out for jumpers in the
area. As they began a turn to
avoid the area, two parachutes

opened at their altitude less than
500 feet off their left wing.
According to the crew, had the
approach radar not notified them
of the immediate danger their
reaction time would not have
been quick enough to avoid the
jumpers.

than 200 CAP Personnel complete the training under the command of CAP Lt. Col. John
McNabb.
Those attending were divided
into six squadrons including one
female, one senior, one advanced
and three basic. The squadrons
were deployed along the Appalachian Trail and the Pinnacle
Side Trail.
Their field problems included
winter survival techniques and a
mountain rescue problem.
At the Western School at West
Freedom, Pa., four squadrons
completed training under the
command of CAP Lt Col.
Sylvester Curto. The members
were deployed along a narrow
rocky ridge for their overnight
field problem.
They encountered snow ar, d
freezing rain which lent considerable realism to the primary
field problem of winter survival
techniques and a mountain
resc ue problem.
According to school officials.

Capt. 'Mac' McGregor
Is A 'Special' Member
WASHINGTON, D.C.--The
Gen. Daniel C. James Cadet
Squadron and the National
Capital Wing boast of having a
very special senior citizen. He is
66-year-old C l i f f o r d " M a c "
McGregor.
Born in Port Huron, Mich., in
1908, McGregor, who is a captain
in Civil Air Patrol, entered the
U.S. Army in 1927 where he spent
27 years with thecriminal investigation division.
From 1954 to 1972 he
periodically worked with WROPTV in Washington as film editor
and at Catholic University
Reserve Officer Training Corps
as supply officer. But with time
on his hands and energy to give,
he needed something to do and he
found it with Civil Air Patrol.
He joined CAP in 1972 at the
age of 63, and became commander of the General James

Cadet Squadron, which consisted
of one senior member and eight
cadets. Since that time he has
built the squadron rolls to 19
seniors and 38.cadets.
He was promoted to captain in
November 1974 and awarded the
Meritorious Service Award for
his outstanding service.
Describing his new career,
Captain McGregor said, "It's
like receiving a heart transplant.
I'm back in action helping kids
and recruiting new members."

SMETHPORT, Pa. The first
airplane ride for Larry
Grossman of Smethport could be
the most important one he will
ever take.
Eighteen-year-old Grossman
was airlifted in a Civil Air Patrol
aircraft to Rochester, N.Y., for
a kidney transplant.
The High School senior suffered from a rare kidney disease
and until that fateful day when
he received the transplant he
had travelled more than 10,000
miles commuting to the Strong
Memorial Hospital in Rochester
for periodic kidney treatment
and checkups.
Early this year his family was
notified that they had a donor
and they should take immediate
steps to get Larry to Rochester.
preferably by air.
Larry's mother contacted
William Spencer. one of the
original members of the Larry
Grossman Kidney Fund. who
called Capt. Peter G. Poleto.
commander of Pennsylvania
Squadron 507. An aircraft was
set up immediately and less than
two hours after the original call
from Rochester. the plane was
on its way with Larry aboard.
The kidney transplant operation started just seven hours
after the notification and at last
report Larry was coming along
fine.
Permission for the flight,
which was piloted by SM Larry
Shields. was obtained earlier
from Col. A. A. Milano. Pennsylvania Wing commander.

Tentative Route of The American FreedomTrain
1975-1976

~ ~-

The American Freedom Train,
a 24-car red, white and blue exhibit train powered by a restored
steam engine, .will carry an unpreccedented display of more
than 500 historical documents,
priceless artifacts and.
memorabilia to millions of people throughout the 48 contiguous
states during the nation's
Bicentennial celebration ~April
1975-December 1976.)
One of the major purposes of
the Freedom Train's travels is
to sew together the richly
diverse mosaic of local
Bicentennial projects going on in
every state. The Freedom Train
will serve as a catalyst for local
participation in the Bicentennial
at each of the train's 79 stops.
The train will begin its journey
on April 1 at Wilmington,
Delaware. The display cars will
be carrying articles representative of the nation's founding,
its industries, sports, entertainment, explorations and law
enforcement.
A major exhibit will be the
Freedom Bell. a double-scale
replica (excluding crack) of the
Liberty Bell in Independence
Hall. Philadelphia. The 71/2 feet
tall. 71/2 feet in diameter
Freedom Bell weighs 16.830
pounds and is tuned for the
musical note F. exactly one octave below the Liberty Bell. It is
.the American Legion's Bicentennial gift donated on behalf of
America's children.

A m e r i c a ' s Yo u t h To B e A c l i v e
During Nation's Commemoration
WASHINGTON, D.C.--Perhaps an expression by
a I7-year-old high school senior in Connecticut best
tells why America's youth are joining fully in the
Bicentennial commemoration of the United States.
"' The American Revolution didn't begin on Lexington Green and didn't end in Yorktown. We need
much more than a big party on the Fourth of July,
1976 - we need a continuing program to maintain
the spirit of a permanent revolution dedicated to
human freedom.
While dedicated to an improved future, the
young people are by no means ignoring the past in
their efforts to know and understand their culture
and heritage. Our youth are deeply involved in projects and programs under all three national
Bicentennial themes - Heritage, Festival and
Horizons.
Young people are not only serving on Community
Bicentennial Commitees. but in many cases are
the most active participants in forming plans and
programs for community participation in the
Bicentennial.
Leading national youth groups -- like the Boy

Scouts. the Girl Scouts. 4-H. Future Farmers of
America are deeply involved in broad Bicentennial programs. It's your job as CAP members to
get Civil Air Patrol involved!
These activities run the gamut from clean-up
campaigns to beautify and conserve the environment to archaeological projects to rediscover the
heritage of communities.
One project, sponsored by the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration. is involving individuals and groups of youth in tapping the
"Grass roots" history of the nation.
C a l l e d " A b o v e G r o u n d A r c h a e o l o g y, " t h e
Bicentennial project encourages the searching out
of "lost" documents, photographs, letters, furniture, dress and other memorabilia from days
g o n e b y, o r r e c a p t u r i n g f r o m m e m o r i e s t h e
fullness and flavor of life in earlier times.
Creativity and energy are the resources of
America's youth and they can apply these
resources in many programs for the commemoration of the nation's 200th anniversary. Get Civil Air
Patrol involved.

Beautify For The Bicentennial
WASH I~IGTON D.C.--If you haven't as yet decided
what to give Uncle Sam on his 200th birthday, why
not make it a tree, a flower, a plant, a shrub?
Just think, if all of his relatives chipped in by
planting a living gift on the occasion of his
Bicentennial, what a pleasant beginning it would
be for his third century.
John W. Warner, Administrator of the American
Revolution Bicentennial Administration (ARBA),
who has said the success of the Bicentennial will
be judged by the number of participants; not spectators, suggest this is one way an individual or
community can become involved in the commemoration of the nation's 200th anniversary with
lasting effect.
The ARBA is encouraging support for the
"Green Survival for the Third Century" program
of the American Association of Nurserymen
(AAN) and has designated the project a national
Bicentennial program.
Mr. Warner presented a certificate of recogni" tion and a Bicentennial flag to Louis Hillenmeyer,
President of the AAN, on December 3.
In addition to focusing attention on the project,

official recognition provides for the use of the
national Bicentennial symbol in connection with
the program's activities.
The program is designed to encourage "individuals and groups to plant trees, shrubs, grass
and other plants in a nationwide effort to help
purify the air, stabilize the soil, clarify thewater,
beautify our surroundings and abate noise."
The Association is working with State department of agriculture in the promotion of "Green
Survival for the Third Century;" and I0 States are
currently using or considering the program.
For 20 years the association has conducted an
Annual Landscape Award Program and will give a
special series of awards to those communities
which have shown outstanding interest and success
on community beautification during the nation's
Bicentennial.
Mr. Warner noted that many of the more than 2,000 communities around the country which have
received national Bicentennial recognition to date,
have included such beautification programs in
their Bicentennial planning and expressed hope
that many others will join.
