Government Expected to Extend Plan To Train 20,000 Students With New $5,000,000 Appropriation

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Harvard students will almost certainly participate next year in the U. S. Civil Aeronautics Authority's pilot training program, reliable University and government sources stated yesterday.

With the recent Congressional appropriation of $5,000,000 to teach 20,000 college students how to fly, the C.A.A. will extend an experiment already in operation at M.I.T. and 12 other colleges throughout the country.

Still very much in the experimental stage, the program, when extended to Harvard, will follow closely the present one at M.I.T., where 20 students are already taking their dual flying instruction at the East Boston and Norwood Airports. M.I.T. is providing the ground school instruction while the C.A.A. has hired three members of the E. W. Wiggins school for the aviation instruction.
