It also discusses Col. Bruce Arnold's failed attempt at getting WASP-centered bills passed through Congress and the death of Nancy Love, former head of the Ferry Command of WASP. The back of the clipping reveals part of the CAC (Community Adult Center) calendar and an article written by Vivian Brown. This article discusses the increase in housing sales to "foreigners."
