I. SIGNIFICANT ITEMS
Nothing to report.
II. OTRSR ITEMS
Information Reporting, Eeports, and Requirements (IRRR), Course
Number 37, with a final enrollment of nine students is continuing
through its second week. The apathetic attitude of the class in the
first few days has changed for the better; in the practical work of
collecting information and patting it into finished information-reports
form, all members are showing interest and performing satisfactorily
--one excellently.
Information Reports Familiarization (IRF): miss of
OTR continues to make good progress in IRF. Through directed prac-
tice, she has raised the level of her editorial skill both in her
own writing and in rewriting the copy of others. The period of her
on-the-job training is indeterminate.
Another tutorial student in IRF, Africa
who is to be assigned as an intelligence assistant has
been registered for training 19-23 March. Originally scheduled
for a week later, the training was, shifted to aecomodate other tu-
torial training in budget and finance.

Clandestine Services The course is
in its third and final week. Some adjustments in the schedule have
been made due to illness, moving, and other commitments of speakers.
Two lectures, the one on cover problems and the other on essential
elements of liaison in friendly countries were taped by
and presented to the students as recordings. Both were well received.
Counterintelligence rations Course: Course number 4+3 is in
its second week. As with theNNEP a good deal of tinkering with the
schedule has been necessary to acoomodate speakers who have had moving

problems, transportation difficulties, sickness, conflicts caused
by unforeseen professional matters arising in their own offices, etc.
The "unity!' of the course has been considerably disturbed as a result.
Records Officers Course: Course number 6 concluded on 1 March.
A course report will go forward on 8 March.
Scientific and Technical Operations: Mr.
are continuing the schedule preparation for the next course, to begin
23 April. On 2 March they visited the NASA Center at Greenbelt, Md.
They were accompanied by Robert Dunning, an executive assistant to
the Director of NASA. The trip was exploratory in nature, but they
feel that his site and its personnel can be, or should be, exploited
in the course, either by a field trip or by scheduling certain speakers
to appear in our classroom. This center is concerned primarily with
non-manned space flight (satellites). It is well equipped to handle
a group the size of ours and would provide a good chance to beef up
the R&D coverage in our field trips. Lastly, the site has the ad-
vantage of being only about 18 miles from downtown Washington.
25X1A9a Mr. are scheduled to visit Huntsville
and Patrick AF Base (Canaveral) next week, departing Tuesday, March 13,
AM, leaving Humtsville, Wednesday PM, arriving at Canaveral late in
the day on Wednesday, the 1$th, then returning via Orlando at an
undetermined time on Friday, the 16th. Arrangements for the Canaveral
visit have been coordinated with OCR/Liaison and should be more worth-
while than a run-of-the-mill type of tour since we will be briefed
and guided by a former ORR=employee now employed by the AF.
