Last Wednesday most everyone was having his studious concentration
interrupted by a loud roar of an airplane. On that day the ROTC Cadets
finally got to go on a flight from the Hazleton Airport (at least some
did J) A C-U7 was flown to the airport for the use of the Cadets, and
continuous flights were planned for the whole day. But, as you have
probably heard, "Old Man Weather" once again kicked up a fuss with
snow and low visibility so that the last couple of flights for the day
had to be cancelled. But for those, that didn’t have a dhance to fly,
don’t give up hope l For there are several more flights being planned for
next semester and it is hoped that everyone will have at least one chance
to get on a flight.
