Needs of Airfield Development Told by Experts Looking toward the future when Anaheim or northern Orange county may have its own airport, members of the planning commission, Chamber of Commerce officials and aviation enthusiasts met last Monday afternoon at the Chamber of Commerce office to hear three qualified air representatives tell of the widening field of aviation in the post-war period and of the practical needs that must be studied before Anaheim can hope to have its own airfields. The speakers were Paul G. Sanderson, engineer of the Civil Aeronautical administration; Frank Stuart, aviation representative and Charles W. Springer, airport engineer of a major oil company. Thomas Kirven presided at the meeting. Every community of 1000 or more residents is confronted with the problem of providing sufficient airport facilities for the post-war world, Stuart said, in pointing out that within five years after the war there will be 500,000 more airlines than were operated before the war. This will be an increase of over 10 per cent, he said. Springer said that a class two airfield would require between 100 and 120 acres of land and that a field this size would base 100 planes. He pointed out the dangers of over building and said that it was best to start with a grass plot and build an airport to the actual needs of the commu- Springer said that a class two airfield would require between 100 and 120 acres of land and that a field this size would base 100 planes. He pointed out the dangers of over building and said that it was best to start with a grass plot and build an airport to the actual needs of the community. The first steps toward planning an airfield are to survey for a site, get a manual from CAA that gives the necessary standards and make certain that the land acquired can have proper drainage, be supplied with sewage and power and be free from natural and man-made hazards. Sanderson stated that northern Orange county needs a large commercial airfield and the consensus of opinion among those present seemed to agree with his statement. A number of those attending stated their beliefs that in the future there will be large shipments of ripened fruit and vegetables to be sent east in further developing industries in this part of the county. The speakers brought out the necessity of having an airport within easy walking distance of the part of town that has the greatest number of residents. One of the greatest objections to this in the past has been the noise created but this will be off-set in the future by muffling the planes. Aviation experts say that it can be done with only a 5 per cent loss of power which is negligible in peace-time flying. Among those attending the meeting were C. H. Diggs, county planning commission director; O. E. Hanson, president of the Chamber of Commerce; planning commissioners; Ralph M. Summers, W. D. Grafton, Millard Parks, E. W. Moeller, Oscar Heying; Councilman Robert Boney; M. L. Todd, local representative of the Shell Oil company; Henry Adams, A. T. Terry, Walter Greene, Joe Sowder, Mrs. Jack Bernard, Thomas Kirven and a number of other residents who are keenly interested in aviation. PTA Congress to Give Scholarships At a recent meeting of the Board of Managers of the California Congress of Parents and Teachers held on May 1 and 2, probably the most important PTA Congress to Give Scholarships At a recent meeting of the Board of Managers of the California Congress of Parents and Teachers held on May 1 and 2, probably the most important point of business during the session was the adoption of a strong platform for the year 1945-1946. One of the items brought up for consideration was "in view of the predicted greater teacher shortage we urge an intensification of efforts to recruit young men and women for teaching. We shall support this cause by making scholarships available to qualified candidates for the profession. Public school officials and teacher-training institutions should cooperate in providing in-service training opportunities for teachers holding emergency war credentials." The congress, in accordance with this platform, inaugurated a new plan by which $50,000 will be used for teacher education scholarships. Information and application forms will be made available immediately to high schools, junior colleges and colleges. Some scholarships will be granted to students taking the emergency teacher training courses while other scholarships will go to students whose aim is to secure the elementary teacher's certificate. The members of the congress hope not only to alleviate the shortage of teachers but to interest more students in the teaching profession.
