Meteorology Program Previewed by Gleason

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Eighty-five per cent of the Meteorology Aviation Cadets who complete the new United States Army Air Corps special "A" course in meteorology, will receive commissions in the Air Corps as Second Lieutenants, according to Sarrel E. Gleason, Army Air Corps consultant, who previewed the new meteorology course in Lowell House Junior Common Room yesterday.

The new program is to provide the Army Air Corps with a large group of mathematically-minded draft-age youths for service with the meteorology air force unit. These men are to accompany flight units in bombing and reconnaissance duty overseas.

Men can qualify for course "A" by completing one of two courses, course "C", which presupposses two years of high school mathematics, including algebra and plane geometry, and one year of general science, or course "B", which requires the completion of one year of college mathematics, including college algebra, trigonometry, and geometry.
