Calderwood, chairman of the program. Instruction in the language, geo- graphy, history, customs and econ- omy of Japan, the Philippines, China and countries of southeast Asia will be offered in a Graduate School pro- gram of regional administration and reconstruction. The projected program will supple- ment a similar course of- training dealing with the Central European area which has been offered by the Graduate School since November. The time required to complete training will depend upon previous experience of the student, Dr. Cal- derwood said. Persons with training in law, industry, finance, education, public health, social welfare or engi- neering can complete the course in two four-month terms. Additional basic training will be provided for students lacking such specialized knowledge. Courses will be adapted to individ- ual fields of specialization, Dr. Cal- derwood said, through the coopera- tion of schools and colleges of the University. Company Ifer Women Course in Engineering A course in aeronautical engineer- ing for women college graduates, pro- viding pre-employment training with pay, has been announced by the Gru- mman Aircraft Engineering Corpor- atign of Long Island, N.Y. Training offered includes an eight week tuition-free course in the ele- menits of aeronautical engineering at Columbia University, with text books costing not more than five dollars, followed by four weeks of training in aircraft fabrication and safety ed- ucation at the Freeport State Avia- tion School. During this 12 weeks period apprentices will receive a weekly salary of $25. Trainees will then take three months of advanced aeronautical en- gineering at the company's Bethpage plant, receiving $40 to $45 per week while there. Approved residences will be recommended by the company. Upon completion of the course the women will receive employment in the Engineering and Production Planning department in various cap- acties depending on the abilities, aptitudes and preferences shown by the individual during apprenticeship. Rates of pay will be determined by demonstrated abilities. Applicants who have majored in mathematics, physics, chemistry architecture or business administra- tion are preferred, although other college graduates with high scholastic averages will be considered. It is planned to continue the course three times a year. Interested women should inquire at the Office of the Deah of Women. 8th Annual Student Book Exchange Will Run Feb. 6 to 11 Plans are now being formulated to operate the eighth annual Student Book Exchange Feb. 6 to 11, it was announced yesterday by Irwin Straub, '45, Union representative. The Book Exchange is sponsored by both the League and Union and is maintained to buy and sell used text books to students. All operations will be carried on in the lobby of the Union. Last year the Exchange accepted more than 850 books for sale and dis- posed of all of them. Altogether more than 550 students participated in buying and selling books. Students wishing to present books for sale may do so from 3 to 5 p.m. neat week in the Union Student Offices. TANKER ORDERED TO LEAVE DETROIT, Jan. 20. -(p)-- Mayor Edward J. Jeffries, acting at the re- quest of Army authorities, today or- dered two large oil tankers which had been unloading directly into oil trucks to leave port with their cargo of 2,000,000 gallons of fuel oil. VITAL OIL BURNS HANCOCK, Md., Jan. 20. -- (A) - Thousands of gallons of precious fuel oil and gasoline bound for the eastern seaboard went up in flames today when nine Western Maryland Rail- road tank cars wrecked and burned about a mile west of Hancock. Future jobs for as many as fifty University coeds with major U.S. oil companies were foreseen yesterday by Prof. Kenneth K. Landes, head of the geology department and director of a new course in petroleum geology for women students. Only four appli- cations for the course have been re- ceived up to date. Of 6 replies received from chief geologists in oil producing companies throughout the country, 25 indicated that within the next year they would need several girls. Openings range from .New York to California, with the greatest need in Texas and Okla- homa. "While definite guarantees cannot be given on the wages, the jobs paid well even before the outbreak of the war," said Professor Landes. "Start- ing pay was $150 a month." Women who complete this inten- sive twelve-month course will have a variety of jobs to perform. Many of them will work in geology offices on well records, well field maps, and. well cuttings. Actual field work will also be included. Information about the program has been sent to 900 teachers of geology in colleges throughout the country by the University, leader in this field. The course itself will last for a year, and a student will obtain as much academic work in geology dur- ing this time as she would ordinarily secure in four and a half years. Prerequisites for admission to the program include one year's work in physical and historical geology (Ge- ology 11 and 12), and a "B" aver- age. The former requirement for trigonometry as a prerequisite has been eliminated; women who have not had this mathematical training may take the course during the first semester. Forty-six hours of credit can be earned toward a degree at the -University or other institutions. Further information on this pro- gram may be secured from the geol- ogy office.
