Air Force Academy Tour
Impressed C Of C Chief
Editor's note: This is the sec
end installment of a report on a
tour by Klamath Falls business
and civic leaders of Air Force
installations 'in Colorado Springs
and the, McDonnell Aircraft Cor
poration plant in St. Louis. The
preceding article concerned oper
ations at Air Defense Command
headquarters.
By R. FRANK TUCKER
Manager, Klamath County
Chamber of Commerce
; Needless to say, when we wan
dered out of two briefing sessions
at Colorado Springs, plus the ac
tual "participation" in the Com-
bat Operations Center of a mock
attack, we were staggered by the
magnitude of what we had seen.
To have observed yes. To have
been able to comprehend and as-
. similate only partially. Our next
step was a visit to the United
States Air Force Academy. .--
Twenty miles north of the city
of Colorado Springs, under the es
carpment of the Rampart Range,
is the permanent home of the aca
demy. Authorization of this instal
lation was made possible by an
Act of Congress in 1954. Obviously,
many areas around the country
,were attempting to locate this
rtagnlficent institution in their own
locale., .....
Alter caretut screening, tne sec
retary of the Air Force made the
final decision. Having tramped up
and down these United States, it is
my opinion that no better site se
lection could have been made
With a military reservation of
nearly 18.000 acres, the timeless
architecture for the cadet struc
tures and support buildings nestles
into the five rolling valleys. Sixty
miles of paved roads take the visi
tor to these many units which com
prise the whole of the academy.
An articulate Air Force captain
by the name c' Poulton gave us a
memorable iour. He explained that
the academy's mission is to pro
vide instruction, experience, and
motivation to each cadet so he
will graduate with the qualities of
leadership and the knowledge re
quired of an officer in (he United
States Air Force, and with a basis
for continued development through
out a lifetime of service to his
country, leading to readiness for
responsibilities as a future a i r
commander.
As we toured through the campus
grounds and then the buildings,
we mentally placed ourselves in
the varying stages as a cadet pro
gresses through his four years a
four-year program of general ed
ucation and military airmanship.
The discipline, the comradeship,
the heartaches, the joys, the never-deviating
vision of successful
completion of a course jf study
AiOt exceeded by any college or uni
versitythese are but a few of
the reactions we felt on this trip. A
dining hall 276 feet square inside
. . , enough to seat 3,000 cadets at
one time. Feed them all and have
them on their way in just 40 min
utes! This hall without one sup
port pillar inside!
The cadet quarters where two
men sleep and study. The plane
tarium, the gymnasium and where
the new chapel is to be erected
all these we inspected in awe.
Speaking of the chapel brings back
the statement made by the tour of
ficer. "Each cadet is required to
attend the church service of his
choice each Sunday during his
four years at the academy!"
Someone asked, "How do the ca
dets get about?" The answer was
simple of course. No cadet may
have a car Until his last three'
weeks as a first classman (senior).

Buses are then provided. (One
thing we found out. the husps
haven't changed a hit since our
stint in the military!)
What does the cadet have in
the way of a course of study?
If he were taking engineering, 75
per cent of his curricula would be
in science and math. If he were
taking liberal arts the percentage
would be in favor of the humani
ties. At the academy his academic
curriculum is nearly equally di
vided between scientific stniHiec
land social sciences humanities.
During his four years, he accum
ulates 64 semester hours of scien
tific studies; 65 hours of social
sciences and 12 hours of air
manship studies. In the scientific,
he has 16 semester hours of math:
four -of charts, maps and draw
ings: ix of chemistry; nine of
physics; six of statics, rivnamire
and mechanics of materials; nine
of electrical engineerine: six each
of aerodynamics and thermodynam
ics ana two ot design appreciation.
In the social sciences he has 16
semester hours of English; two
and one half hours of lntritv Iwn
and one half hours of geography;
nve nours ot psychology; six hours
of history of world civilization; five
hours of U.S. historv: two hntlrc
of U.S. government; four hours
on various phases of economics;
two hours on national civwitv.
four hours on foreign governments
ana international relations; three
hours on law; three hours on mil

eign language. Pretty well balanced

KLAMATH COUNTY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
In the seven "short weeks I
have been associated with the
Klamath Chamber of Commerce,
a number of confreres and ac
quaintances from my days as a
newsman have asked me. "Just
what docs a chamber of com
merce do?" While the question
was sometimes asked as a cood-
natured rib, it often was pooed in
good (aith and in all seriousness.
And it started me thinking that if
just a few reasonably intelligent
acquaintances of mine don't un
derstand the operation of a chain-
