&"f= 1965 World <strong>Gliding</strong> Championships<br />
OR. three weeks next year the R.A.F.<br />
F<br />
airfield at South CerDey will become<br />
the home of 1,000 people, nearly 400 of them from abroad.<br />
We want to make the championships an event really worthy of this country,<br />
and enjoyable for competitors who will have come thousands of miles to take<br />
part.<br />
As everyone knows, the generosity of W. D. and H. 0. Wills has enabled<br />
us to reduce the entry fee to competitors; the R..A.F.. too, are giving us every<br />
co-operation, and, Dot least, <strong>15</strong>0 <strong>Gliding</strong> <strong>Club</strong> members are giving up their annual<br />
holidays to work. Nevertheless, it is going to cost a lot of money, although we<br />
hope money well spent. There wil1 be considerable bills for printing, insurance,<br />
telephones, construction work, etc., and all the other items which are an inevitable<br />
part of the organization of a big event.<br />
Anyone who feels that they would like to contribute to the success of the<br />
Championships, and send a cheque, should make it payable to the British <strong>Gliding</strong><br />
Association and send it to the B.G.A. at Artillery Mansions, 75 Victoria Street,<br />
London, S.W.I.<br />
Alternatively, construction materials - deltion, hardboard, formica, timber,<br />
strip lighting, etc., wouW be most welcome.<br />
All donations will be acknowledged with grateful thanks.<br />
