CAP CADETS PRACTICE MILITARY DRILL: Preparing for service as auxiliaries to the regular Ann Arbor Civil Air Patrol squadron, members of the CAP cadet corps are showing lined up for roll call preparatory to beginning military drills. The group, which includes 50 cadets and 15 reserves, some of them in uniform, meets each Wednesday night in Waterman Gymnasium. The drilling is conducted by R. L. Painter, flight officer in the CAP and commander of the cadet corps. The corps is composed of both boys and girls 16 and 17 years old. When they become 18 they will be eligible for membership in the Civil Air Patron. Classes are being planned in first aid, military orders, officer training, guard duty and plane repair, to prepare the cadets to relieve CAPs when the latter are on active duty.

Welding is a hot enough business even on a cool day, but add the smothering temperatures which have visited Ann Arbor this week and you get a job few men would envy. Harold Dapprich of Ypsilanti, the welder in the above picture, isn't quite as warm as you may think, however. He is at work replacing a steam main in the University's underground tunnel system where the temperature is some eight degrees cooler than outside. It's a different story in tunnels leading to the buildings which use steam for cooking or sterilizing purposes. There the temperature gets as high as 120 degrees.
