Jimmie, through his close re- lationship to bovines couldn't be one of those fellows who zooms the local farms. Perish the thought. FREDERICK K. HARVEY, comes from Tennes- see, where he took part in HY activities. Tennessee had it's Sergeant York-Kingsport has its Cadet Harvey. WILBER V. GEE, home town Jersey City, New Jersey. In civilian life this lad had an exact- ing job as a gage maker.'Precision flying is what is required in the Air Force so he should be right at homc. WILLIAM J. HAYS, had the worries of a ser- vice station attendant prior to those of the Air Corps. This Haystown, Ga., boy is small, to be sure, but when it comes to flying, the proverbial big-things-come-in-smallepack- ages is true. JOHN M. HENDERSON, from Florence, Ala- bama attended Florence State after sipping all the knowledge he could get from Cof- fee High. He haunted drivers as a license in- spector. a ?1a fjgijlf , ..-' -- J.

Later as a chemist, that elementary stuff was all for- gotten and he made bigger and better smells. DAVID c. HOLBY, of Los Angeles, California has worked for Uncle Sam before, though 600 Flying Hours in another way. He was a Civil Service Ad- ministrative clerk.

eff t ' X MARION F. HANEY, INSTRUCTOR THOMAS W. GORDON, 2nd Lieutenant, a Texan from Georgetown, tried almost everything before the Army.
