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. The
phone is 6211.
