Charles Thatcher and NROTC Lieut. Comm. Al Mactier, '44, co-chairmen for the affair. Starting today, tickets for the an-l nual dance, which will be held from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday, January 22, at the Sports Building, will be in the hands of all central committee mem- bers; also. Basic Students Invited Besides the co - chairmen, other committee members are N R O T C Lieut. Robert Begle, '43; NROTC Lieut. Art Thomason, '44E;.Cadet Capt. Robert Miars, '43; Cadet Lieut. Col. John Stauch, '43; Cadet Maj. Richard L. Cole, '43E., and Cadet Maj. John Winters, '43. Formerly, open only to advanced corps men, this year all members of the'ROTC and NROTC, including the basic students, are invited to attend the Ball. Proceeds from the affair will be divided between the Military Science department, Naval Science depart- ment and the Bomber-Scholarship. Date Pushed Ahead The annual Ball, in former years held in spring, has been pushed ahead this year, because many of the ad- vance corps men are graduating sen- iors. As it is possible that some basic students may leave at the end of this semester, also, the dance will provide a last get-together and a last chance to relax before exams for many of the members of the two military reserve forces.' Announcement of the orchestra for the Army-Navy Military Ball will be soon. 'P P4,/present'\ A tcs _ Ten whole days to relax'--and most of us need every single minute of them. That doesn't mean we should sleep twelve hours a day, however, and then come back feeling worse than ever. Seems its been an old custom around here to come back so completely relaxed that eight hours sleep isn't adequate for about a week after vacation, and we all crawl around campus looking'like dead pigeons. "We're getting a vacation during wartime, and that's plenty to be thankful for. Why not keep a regular schedule this time. Get the right amount of sleep and refuse third helpings, so help me. Join a bandage-making unit and make it a regular -habit, or set a new all-time record for the knitting of one- of those large-sized' army sweaters or read that book you've been pretending you know for years now or write six letters a day to the various and sundry in the armed forces. Take your choice, but do something more than just sleeping, and gurgling eggnogs. Now that we've taken those preliminary kinks out, let's not slip back into the "flabby bag" stage. Take out ten minutes before bedtime stories and do the frog, the airplane or the stretcher. We assume that you know those are the names of some of the Voluntary Physical Fitness exercises. So take a suggestion for a New Year's resolution and come back to campus minus that Christmas extra poundage. * * . '* * Credit should be given to two, athletic managers, whom we must admit are practically mathematical geniuses. Deserving the taps on the back are Frances Goldberg of Jordan Hall and Ruth Edberg of Helen Newberry, who handed in really complete reports on their respective house's participation, Including their percentage for the week. * , , More good news is in order. We hear that all by their lonesomes, many of the Ann Arbor coeds are going through a stiff workout every night. That's all right there, gals. * * * * In slacks and shorts about 90 leaders and athletic managers turned out for the third meeting of the Physical Fitness program last week. Vehe- ment speeches were given by various members of the WAA Board concern- ing the success of the program and the factors of diet and sleep along with exercise. On the sidelines were Mr. Clark Tibbetts, executive director of the War Board, Dean Alice Lloyd, Miss Ethel McCormick and Char Thompson. Com- menting on the program, Miss McCormick said, "It was interesting and the turnout was impressive. I was especially glad to hear the talks on nutrition and sleep which the Board members composed themselves." Nothing can stop the Army Air Corps or the WAA, not even New Year's. Next leadership meeting will be on Jan. 1, 1943, and we'll knock the "hang- over" out of you. So see you then and Merry Xmas. Outfits Become Letter-Perfect With Smart Bag They say clothes make the man. We might add that a good-looking purse is necessary for the well- dressed woman. Purses come in al shapes, sizes, and colors. to fit any costume. There's the slick domoc envelope for sporty tweeds and just big enough to carry the money you need for that shopping excursion. Or maybe you prefer a neat little' change purse. How about the hand-woven Chimayo zipper handbag in a plain color or in Indian patterns? There are any number of bags to go with the afternoon or dinner dress. You will surely like the embroidered cord effects, the virgin wool broad- cloth, and , the lustrous cord, hand- crocheted purses that are being shown so much this year. Equally smart-looking are the large soft 4eather bags and the ever-popular zipper top bengaline purses trimmed with plastic rings. Td match your fur coats and cloth coats as well; there's nothing like the double-duty muff bag. It holds so much and keeps your hands from being exposed to winter's mighty blasts. You can't have too :mtich of a good thing, the ancient proverb says, and this time we suggest the classic envelope purse of genuine Ca- nadian boot-leather. Business World Calls Women To Fill Administrative Positions By CAROL COTHRAN The calls for women to fill office positions heretofore held by men are increasing to shouts as "business is feeling the pinch of the draft," de- clares Prof. Merwin Waterman, pro- fessor of finance and secretary of the School of Business Administration. Public accountants, bank tellers, ,personnel managers, and department store junior executives are only a few of the jobs that are open to trained feminine applicants. Not to be confused with secretarial positions, these vacancies are of the business administrative kind; the ones into. which the men graduates step after completing the two-year course offered in the school of bus- iness. Advancement Is Possible "But what about after the war?" is the obvious query; "Will the women be required to give up their positions to the returning male population?" To this Professor Waterman answers a definite, "Certainly not! As in the last war, women will have their feet in the doors of business. Although many young women will be filling these jobs as a stopgap until mar- riage, there are those who will intend to make the work a career. If they are conscientious and execute their work well, there is no reason why they should be forced to give it up at that time."j The expression, "women will have their feet in the doors of business," is explained by Professor Waterman to mean that after the present war, as after World War I, the female of the species will occupy more and more positions-in the business world, formerly held by men. Capable, con- scientious womep are no longer to be restricted from advancement to of- fices of the executive nature. Coed Enrollment Doubled The enrollment at Tappan Hall this semester has it that the women stu- dent body has more than doubled that of last year and that the coeds are adding up to a neat 10%' of the en- tire enrollment. This should be an indication that university women who are interested in business positions with salaries equalling those of their masculine predecessors are realizing, the opportunities in training for the jobs. Two years, or four semesters, of business administration instruction will prepare the enrollee ideally for these jobs, but the demand for trained women is becoming so urgent that employers are accepting even those who have taken only one year of instruction and have received "the tools of business," as Professor Wat- erman describes it.'
