BILL LAAS IS ON IWO JIMA Iwo Jima (Delayed!—Staff Ser geant William F. “Cotton” Laas, who says he's one of Hermiston, Oregon’s few Marines, is a mem ber of a crack Leatherneck torpe do bomber outfit on this island. The 30-year-old Oregon ord nanceman. a ground crewman with the Fourth Marine Air Wing, was picked to come in with the forward echelon which flew 700 miles from the Marianas to estab lish their new base on Motoyama airstrip. Cotton's job is to arm the tor pedo planes for their round-the- clock patrols. Living in a dugout camp just in front of the muzzles of the big guns, he has had little sleep in his spare time. On the field he has to keep a continual schedule, often working 24-hour periods without rest. When he returns to his old base in the Marianas, he will go back to his old hobby of making ice cream for the boys in his camp. A 1933 graduate of Hermiston High school, Laas played football at the University of Oregon in '35 and '36. He is a brother of Pete Lass, former owner of the PAG Cafe here. c) H V-5 RE-OPENS CADET PROGRAM The Naval Aviation Preparato ry Training program is again open to a limited number of civilian high school graduates who meet the following qualifications: Age 17, single: graduate from high school before June 25, 1945; good standing in community; be able to pass Navy Flight physical and aptitude tests, and agree to re main on active duty for four years from date of transfer to grade of Aviation Cadet.
