ANN ARBOR AIRPORT PLOTTED IN MINIATURE: Based on plans issued by the State Board of Aeronautics, students in the School of Architecture and Design have completed a model of the proposed Ann Arbor airport, which has been plotted from aerial photographs. The 150 feet wide runways are built to scale on land that the city now owns, although the cluster of buildings at the far right have been constructed on the assumption that the city will buy another plot of ground. Now that the students have completed the model airport, their next assignment is to camouflage it so carefully that enemy bombers supposedly flying overhead would be unable to locate it.
