BIRTHS CAPE COD AIRPORT Saturday was the end of the sea- son us far as seaplane Hying Is con- cerned. Due to the fact that the annual license inspection is about to bo held , it was decided to put the ship back on wheels for the winter. This will make It much easier to work on the ship, as It can ' be put into the hangar. With Instructor Angus Perry at the con- trols, the ship wus flown from the Mystic Lake Seaplane Base and landed on the grass of the field. Thus conies to a close another year of aqua Hying. Dr. James Leach of Hyannls, who was one of the strongest advo- cates of water flying, has had to supplement his diet with the Tay- lorcraft. After an hour ot dual Sun- day in the much warmer airplane, he was ready to concede that It was the ship to be flying, with colder weather in the vicinity. After a few hours in this shop he will be ready to check out in the much faster Piper Super Cruiser. Adrian Lahtlene of Hyannis spent three very balmy dayB put- ting the insignia and slogans on the new Provincetown-Boston Air- lines Twin. Despite the bitter cold which prevailed in the hangar, he turned out an exception job , after which Airport Manager Angus Perry ferried the ship to its base in Provincetown. Paul Lorrett of Hyannls Is the latest addition to the Commercial Pilot Course at the Cape Cod Air- port. Paul has started his training in Florida before getting out of the Navy. Several days ago, after a long period of waiting filled with red tape, he got approval to con- tinue his pilot training at the Cape Cod Flying Service. With a Private Ticket already, and 80 odd hours to his credit, he is ready to check out in the Taylorcraft as a start- off , followed by other checkouts and night flying with quite a bit of cross country to make the balance. Although the field was closed on Thanksgiving, there were a few hearty individuals who liked to fly with a full stomach. Those who did were doled out airplanes by Air- port Manager Angus Perry and flew at random around the area Needless to say, there weren 't any aerobatics being performed. Line chief Jack Cunningham has kept his time occupied with the problems of turning off the water for the winter and numerous other items which come up in the way ot securing things for the winter. UP IN THE AIR I In Falmouth, Nov. 24 , by the Rev. John Kelly, Miss Jeanne R. La- fond , Falmouth, and John R. Agus- ta , Jr., Teaticket. In Falmouth , Nov. 24 , by the Rev.

MARRIAGES Tthe Northeastern University School of Business announces that a course of instruction for high school teachers in Driver Educa- tion and Driver Training will open on Thursday, December 1 . This course of training, provided by Northeastern University and co- sponsored by the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles, offers a credit of two semester hours to teachers completing its require- ments and Is actively supported by Commissioner of Education , John J. Desmond , Jr., who has made un- qualified recommendations in the interest of high school programs in the Commonwealth. Registrar of Motor Vehicles, Ru- dolph F. King, recently announced that 236 public high schools in Massachusetts have incorporated Driver Education into their cur- ricula , with G3 of these schools also offering "Behind-the-Wheel" in- struction to students. Another sig- nificant factor , pointed out by the Registrar , is the requirement of certified driver training teachers before a school can take advantage of the available cars furnished through the co-operation of the Massachusetts State Automobile Dealers' Association. Public interest In these courses of training in high schools has been high and continues to be of great Interest to students. Parents are urged to support the state-wide project of getting Driver Education and Driver Training Courses into every high school of the Common- wealth.
