Adult CAP—
(Continued from page T)
Quaifications for the CAP
senior group state members must
be 18 years of age or older. Many
positions in the group do not re
quire pilot licenses ... with a
number of adults working on me
program with the CAP cadets,
the work load is so divided that
it is not necessary for any one
person to take more than his ”
share of work. Meetings are
scheduled but may be set at a
desired frequency. Uniforms are
required, but it was pointed out
that CAP personnel may purchase
through Air Force at the same
price offered airmen.
Although few adults have as
yet signed up for the CAP senior
group, it is hoped that sufficient
number will offer assistance to
Lt. Betts with the cadet program.
Without adult assistance, Lt.
Betts will have the full work
load. Persons interested are ask
ed to contact Lt. Betts or leave
their name at the office of The
Froniersman. Although a milit
ary background is of help, it is
not necessary for there are many
phases to the program that may
be taken over by adults with no
previous experience.
