C. P. T., NOW FULL-TIME, ABANDONED BY COLLEGE

Abandonment of the Civilian Pilot Training Program at Harvard was caused by its removal by the War Department from the class of a part-time college course, it was announced yesterday by Howard W. Emmons, instructor in Mechanical Engineering, who was in charge of the program here.

In the past the course had been taught by men who were also instructors in other fields in the University, and they were unable to continue their work with the course on its present full-time basis.

Furthermore, Emmons announced that recent regulations prohibit civilian flying within 60 miles of the coast, which would have forced the course to move island in any case.
