SEPT. 26, 1942 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE FIVE Student Cabbies Sufer At Every Turn 'En Route' By ROBERTA MANTHO "Okay, lady. Show me how to get there-" A student cab-driver is talking to his ,passenger. While waiting for fall classes to begin, he is picking up a little extra money during the hot- weather season. But the cab-driver unfortunately isn't exactly "big- time"-he doesn't know Ann Arbor beyond Angell Hall. He has- been cruising down State Street for the last hour, has breathed his fenders between two cars with- out scraping much of the paint off and he is pleased with himself. A lady waves her handkerchief at him from a corner and he pulls over, She-gets in and asks him to take her to a street that isn't on the map he carries. So he says: "Okay, lady. Show me how to get there." Heroic Russian, Sniper Meets WAVES Lieutenant Be. Nonchalant: .i . notehaJlit, Russian-American handshake- Thisis just one of the problems the with Lt.

Courses Train College Coeds For War Work Classes In First Aid, Home Nursing, Typewriting, Braille, Child Care Will Be Offered University of Michigan women will have ample opportunity to "do their bit" for America's defense this fall. Continuing the already well-estab- lished defense courses for women, Miss Ethel McCormick, Social Direc- tor of the League, announced that classes in first aid, home nursing, typewriting, motor mechanics, nutri- tion, child care, Braille, and nursing aid will again be offered this fall. There are three types of first aid classes: standard, advanced, and in- structor. The principal aim of the standard first aid course is to pro- vide instruction for immediate intel- ligent care of the injured in case of an emergency. The ten class meet- ings of two hours each include lec- tures, demonstration, and practice. The home nursing course offers in- formation concerning home and community hygiene as well as prac- tical instruction in personal and fam- ily health, the care of infants and small children, and the care of the sick under home conditions. Typists Needed Because a lack of stenographers is one of the primary problems of the defense effort, typewriting classes are also listed among the defense courses for women. Class meetings of 11/2 hours each, are held twice a week for the entire semester. Motor mechanics is one of the more technical and unusual courses offered under the defense program. Class work includes instruction in the general mechanics of a car, changing a tire without lifting, tak- ing a carburetor apart, and learning how to drive a truck. Students in the class are given working demonstra- tions on the mechanics of an auto- mobile as well as instruction in emer- gency repairs. Classes in nutrition present facts on food needs and food values and offer information on the newer prin- ciples of food preparation. The prin- cipal aims of this course are the training of lay volunteers to assist in the national nutrition program through community activities, and in family and group feeding under emergency conditions. Defense Need The course in child care is an es- sential part of defense and the need for centers to care for children be- comes more acute as more mothers are engaged in defense work. These classes include a study of child de- velopment, nursery school methods, parent education, nutrition and health education. Another unusual course offered as a part of the defense program for women is Braille. This course aids in preparing students to transcribe, du- plicate, bind books in Braille, read to the blind, and to teach them the Braille system. The Nurse's Aide course offers an opportunity to upperclass women in the University by using them as as- sistants in nursing responsibilities in the hospital. No credit is offered for any of these courses. Registration will be held in the Social Director's Office, Michigan League.

Luncheons, teas, buffet suppers, dan- ces and even, picnics preceding and following the games make Saturday the fullest day of the week. With the opening game so early in the year and the possibility of some remaining weeks of warm weather, college women will be flaunting their newest suits for awhile yet. For that special date when your Ensign or Lieutenant comes in for a week-end leave, nothing less than a dressy suit with all the trimmings, hat, gloves, and bag, will do. He'll be proud then to introduce you to all his old "bud- dies" who have somehow managed to get just one more deferment and re- amain.in the University. The college boys aren't so particu- lar; a more casual, sporty suit com- bined with spectators and a. hat, if you are in the mood for one, will sat- isfy theme. If you are footsore from Orientation week or a "walking-less" summer, saddle shoes are very much in order. The hike out to the stadium is no small one, and a good percent- age of University women sacrifice beauty for comfort and wear their oldest, most comfortable walking shoes. Sweaters and skirts will also be seen in abundance, so the problem of "what to wear" shouldn't be hard, to answer. As time goes on and the crisp days turn into blustery ones, the question becomes not what to wear, but how to keep warm. Those of you with fur coats are fortunate, for, thrown over a suit or casual wool dress, nothing. could be better. With or without a hat, in saddle shoes or pumps, you can be sure you will be classed among. the well-dressed women. Of course there will, come that rainy week-end when you wake up on Saturday morning and groan with despair. In that case, anything goes, and raincoat, "babushka", and even. boots will definitely be the thing to wear. Hardening Program For Women Planned; r" g 1/bepp: e°A- } '-77 Similar To PEM TEXTBOOKSNew&Used Everything you will need . . . at I -A 2 El With the recognition of the need for healthy young women in this per- iod of war, plans are now being made to expand the schedule of the Physi- cal Education department for women to include a physical hardening pro- gram of exercises similar to PEM of- fered to men. First step toward this will be the devotion of part of the regular re- quired physical education classes to the hardening program. For exam- ple; part of the hour will be spent in ordinary archery, golf or tennis in- struction, while for the remaining time those classes will meet together for mass exercises. It is expected that later in the school year a voluntary hardening program will be formed especially for women on campus who have already completed their physical education requirements. With their aim, not to build mus- cle but to increase stamina and abil- ity, the Physical Education depart- ment will require all incoming fresh- men to fulfill their standards for graduation. All women who enter with less than two years' college experience on their record must complete this required amount of physical education before graduation. For this work one of the finest physical education departments in the country is at their disposal. - U.
