Coeds Are Offered Scholarships To Become Physical Therapists - ------ ---- --- ------ By LYNNE FORD Students who have had at least two years college work, including twelve semester units in biology and basic science are eligible to apply for scholarships offered by the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis for the purpose. of training some 1,000 physical therapists at once. At present there are only 2,500 physical therapists, more than half of whom are in the armed forces. An additional 5,000 could be used right now, according to the National Foun- dation. Physical therapy is a growing profession, according to the book- let released by the American Phy- siotherapy Association, which cited three reasons for its increased use: first, the tremendous rehabilita- tion program for wounded service- men, second, the field for thera- pists opening in ,industry, and third, the need for physical thera- pists in early stages of infantile paralysis. Courses in approved schools of physical therapy are divided into two parts, two-thirds classroom study, in- cluding lectures and laboratory work, and the remaining one-third clini- cal practice in selected hospitals and clinics. Courses will require a mini- mum of 36 weeks, the exact duration of the training depending on the school chosen. Physical therapy departments have recently been added to most civilian hospitals and mental insti- tutions. Public welfare organizations such as visiting nurses associations, and curative workships have also added therapists to their staffs. Work with handicapped children as well as post war rehabilitation are also rela- tively open fields to the physical therapist. A sum of $1,267,600 has been set aside by the National Foundation for student scholarships, teaching fellowships and\ general develop- ment of the field. Scholarships will cover tuition and books, and mpaintenance and transportation to the school when necessary.

They can be either dressy or sporty and offer many possibilities for variations in design. THE BEST way to have "different" skirts is to make them. The kind of material, color and pattern used will determine when it may be worn. Black and solid colored bal- lerina skirts of jersey, rayon gabar- dine or crepe set off crisp, fancy summer blouses and together they make a comfortable costume for cas- ual affairs. WILD PRINTS and stripes in cot- tons and linens give a gypsy ef- fect especially on the suntanned girl. Variations on the gathered sport skirt may be obtained with clever apli- ques, side-ties and decorative pock- ets. RUFFLES add to the charm of these skirts. A single ruffle run- ning down each side of a peasant skirt suggests a fancy apron. Tiny ruffles sewed close together on the pockets make the skirt look daintier. A flounce or a ruffle on the hem stiffens the edge and the skirt will stand out more. Any size and num- ber of ruffles may be employed on hem and pocket edges to vary the style. VERY unusual peasant styles are fashioned from unbleached mus- lin. Stamped designs are pressed on the material or original ideas drawn on waistband, hem and pocket and when embroidered in bright, clear colors. This same idea could be worked on bright solid-colors such as red, green or blue with white or contrasting embroidery floss. These original skirts are difficult to dupli- cate. .I Merlit-TutoriaI Workers Needed All women interested in working on the Merit-Tutorial Committee of the League are asked to contact Dona ,uimaraes, chairman of the com- nittee.
