WENEDAY,'NOV. 4, 1942 TIE' MICHIGAN DAILY _,__ _ _ . . _.. . _ . . _ __ . . ,.., I :,!L Call Of Coeds lI Possibility American Council On Education Warns, 'Production Can't Wait' Women students should be pre- pared to be called from college at the end of any semester if the manpower situation becomes critical, according to a bulletin published by the Ameri- can Council on Education. "Many"women still think in terms of a leisurely four year course. Pro- duction cannot wait! Under present conditions, women should plan their programs" so that they can most ef- fectively utilize their education to fit themselves into the. many necessary and vital occupations. War Work for All Even though women may not ac- tually be drafted into production at present, "every able bodied woman should sense the obligation to enter sonie form of war service," the Ameri- can Council states. It is pointed out that a very large number of women are continuing to major in the arts and humanities. "These are vital in the total cultural pattern and will be preserved, but only if the war is won. In 1942-43, knowledge of the sciences, of mathe- matics, and of social studies are vital- ly important for the effective par- ticipation of college women in the war program and must temporarily take first place." Many people regard college stu- dents as apathetic and selfish in their attitude toward the war effort; these people will be answered only by col- lege women who are awake to the country's needs. Where They'reNeeded The nation needs: IN HEALTH FIELDS: physicians, dieticians, nur- ses, lab technicians, experts in public health, bacteriologists, chemists, psy- chiatric social workers, occupational therapists, physiotherapists,upharma- cists; IN DIPLOMATIC SERVICES AND SPECIAL INVESTIGATION: linguists, mathematicians, specially trained secretaries; IN SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH: physicists, chemists, geologists, mathematicians, agricul- turists, home economists. IN BISINESS AND INDUSTRY:. engineers, mathematicians, statisti- cians, accountants, secretaries; IN SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES: teach- ers, nursery school experts, psycholo- gists. Paladino: Feature Of Union Formal i' Don Paladino, 14-year-old trumpeter, will be featured with Bill Saw- yer's Orchestra when they play for the Union Formal to be held from 9 p.m. to midnight Friday in the Union Ballroom. Paladino has been playing with the Union band since the beginning of the semester and is considered a "boy wonder." Tickets for the formal, which is traditionally the first of the year, may be purchased at the Union, League or from any member of the committee. ON THE CAMPUS FRONT Hillel To Hold Patriotic Mixer Today At Union Just show your membership card and you'll be admitted to the annual Hillel mixer, to be held from 4 p. m. to 6 p. m. today in the Union Ballroom, where records will provide the music for general and special acquaintance dances. Those who have not yet enrolled may purchase memberships at the door. The money which would ordi- narily have been spent on an orches- tra will be donated to various war agencies this year. A public address system will bring the record music to the ears of the dancers. Those attending may come either stag or with dates, but dates will be the exception rather than the rule. Special "mixer dances" have been arranged to add to the fun, and there will be many hostesses, whose duty it will be to make introductions among the students. Arrangements for the affair are being made by the co-chairmen of the social committee, Grace Freudberg, '45, and Harry Miller, '45, assisted by committee members Mildred Getzoff, '43, and Edith Kohn, '45. Women Break All Precedence At '42 Polls WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-- ()- Women, of both the petticoat and slacks variety, put up fewer candi- dates but cut a much bigger figure in the outcome of today's congres- sional and state elections than in any nation-wide balloting for years. There were but 68 women candi- dates in the national and state pic- ture as compared with 92 in 1938 and 83 in 1940. But at the Democratic and Republican National Headquarters it was reported that women exerted a greater influence in 1942 than at any time since they obtained the vote in 1920. Of the 31 women candidates for Congress-7 Republicans, 5 Demo- crats and 19 divided among minor parties-two incumbents were in be- fore the votes were counted. Mrs. Margaret Smith, Republican, was re-elected in the Maine election in September, and her fellow-Repub- lican, Mrs. Edith Nourse Rogers of Massachusetts, who introduced the bill creating the WAACS, was unop- posed for reelection. The dean of the petticoat law- makers, Mrs. Mary T. Norton of New Jersey, a Democrat, who has served since 1925, sought another term, as did two other House members: Mrs. Frances Bolton (Rep.-Ohio) and Miss Jessie Sumner (Rep.-Ill.). The list of hopeful new candidates for the House included Mrs. Dorothy Kemp Roosevelt of Michigan, a Dem- ocrat, divorced wife of the late G. Hall Roosevelt, brother of Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt.

'to$ Jcoo - C'aca/ at FOR WINTER By JANET VEENBOER Trouping as quietly as possible down hospital corridors; listening in- tently to lectures and directions of head nurses; stumbling through those first grueling hours on a new job-such has been the life of the sophomore women who have been working on their newly organized class project. "It's interesting-and it makes me feel I'm really doing something," is a typical remark from one of these volunteers. Coming back to school this fall expecting to climb back into the security of their ivory towers, students were just a bit startled to find the University pushing an all-out-for-war effort to the nth degree. But now, with only a little urging, Michigan women have caught the spirit of the thing and are behind the University 100%. Soph Project is the first large-scale work which has been attempted-and these girls are set- ting high standards which are going to make it difficult for those class projects which are to follow. With lots of appliance to her job and with full cooperation of her com- mittee, Natalie Mattern, chairman of the project, has turned her complete attention these last two weeks to organizing this wholly unprecedented work. Learning hospital routine, organizing duties, and orienting the volunteers, recently have played a major part in the lives of the girls forming the cen- tral committee. With two weeks of work behind them the committee has formed a pro- gram as follows: every day between forty and fifty girls will be working under the leadership of one of the committee members, or captain. All vol- unteers are under direct supervision of the head nurse of the floor or section in which they are working. When the volunteer arrives, she signs in and goes to her post. As she leaves she checks out, and thus a complete record of the time she has contributed is kept. "Orientation," which every girl had to go through, consisted of a two- hour combined lecture and tour of the University Hospital. An education in itself, this program succeeded in familiarizing the volunteers with hospital routine and ethics. College, hospital, and student leaders are aiming towards a high goal in carrying out this project, and it's up to the workers to main- tain the standards. So far they've done a wonderful job. Congratulations, stick to it, and more power to you, Sophs. And just to show that the sophomores aren't the only ones that have been busy, approximately $200 has-been taken in during the last two weeks from the sale of defense stamps in the booth at N. University and State Sts. With war work looming so large in every person's life-or at least we hope it does-a committee of Volunteer Registration for Emergency Defense has been organized under the leadership of Jo Fitzpatrick. Since there has been some misunderstanding about signing up for the war training courses, with some women even registering under the Man- power Corps and getting away with it, the committee wishes to emphasize that all registration for volunteer service either has or will take place at the various class projects which are in the offing.
