Filter Center Asks For Aid The Columbia Filter Center was organized in October, 1941 for the purpose of protecting Columbia and the surrounding towns from enemy air attacks. During a maneouver period of two months in that same year, its efficiency was tested. Be fore this testing could begin, four hundred (400) volunteers had to be secured to handle the operating. Cards were mailed to the ladies of Columbia asking for their services in this work. The result was most gratifying. Not only did the re quired number volunteer but many more that could be used as extras. After the necessary training, the test began. Due to the splendid cooperation and ability of these same volunteers, the Columbia Fil ter Center was successful to such an extent that large sums of money were spent throughout the nation to install, operate, and mainain such Centers as the best defense against air attacks. Because of its func tions, it was called the Aircraft Warning Service. Since that time we have become involved in this world conflict, niak ing the demand for volunteers in this work more urgent and their work at the Filter Center more im portant than ever before. At the present time the Filer Center is going through the process of training enough volunteers to effeciently operate day and night for seven days each week. So far they have not received that many apptlications so are making this ap p)eal to students to join their school mates andl friends that are nowv in the Aircraft WVarning Service doing their p)art in the war effort. Although the work here is given the higest rating of anly other vol unteer defense work, it is far from being the most difficult. The num her of work hours each wveek is en.. tirely up to the individual, but whether it is three (3) or thirty (30) everyone is needed. As a special message to the boys, they are needled for this work also. Until recently the only volunteers here have lbeen ladies but the situa tion now demands the use of men and( they are welcomed into the ranks as Aircraft Warning Service Volunteers. The location of the installation being confidential, it is asked that ap)plicants either come with a friend or make application through the Office f Civilian Defense in Room 48 at the Arcade Building.
