see various plays which come to Ann
Arbor and many of them have found
it to be interesting work. An oppor-
tunity will be offered at the begin-
ning of next semester for women to
sign for subsequent plays which will
come to the theatre.
Those who do sign will serve as
ushers at the Lydia Mendelssohn
Theatre of the League as well as at
the Michigan Theatre.
The last venture of the semester
for the ushering group was ushering
at Play Production's recent presenta-
tion of "The Skin of Our Teeth" by
Thornton Wilder.
Women who have previously regis-
tered to usher for the plays as well
as women who will be in Ann Arbor
in between semesters are asked to
leave their names and phone numbers
in the Personnel Administrator's box
in the Undergraduate Office of the
League.
Women graduating this semester
can find a job waiting for them in
the Women's Army Corps in any
phase of college work in which they
concentrated.
Degrees granted to majors in geol-
ogy cat be put to good use in the
WAC where women with such qualifl -
cations can become carographers or
draftsmen and serve with the AAF.
The Army Air Forces also need
weather forecasters, observers and
meteorologists. And the woman
who has concentrated in geogra-
phy, meteorology, or 'physics can
find her place with the AAF at
an Army Air Base in the United
States or overseas.
Women who have concentrated in
journalism will find jobs as reporters
waiting for them in the Women's
Army Corps, while those who have
combined teaching and public speak-
ing with their journalism program are
needed for recruiting purposes or for
proof reading of military manu-
scripts.
Camouflage and visual aid work are
open to women who have placed the
major emphasis on art in their col-
lege careers. Women selected for
the field of camouflage may work in
the ASF, AQF, AAF or with the Sig-
nal Corps, while visual 'aid workers
can serve with the Army Service
Forces.
Interesting jobs as translators,
cryptanalysts, cryptographers, and
interpreters are available to women
who have majored i modern lang-
uages and have had some mathe-
miatics. Wacs serving in such capa-
cities prepare, compile, and revise
code books, cipher systems and
keys, render verbal translation to
assist Army officers in conversing
with people using other languages,
and decode and decipher coded
messages without the device of a
key.
Biology majors may become vitally-
needed physical therapists and upon
completion of a nine-month course
be accepted as candidates for com-
missions. Duties as chemical in-
spectors and chemical laboratory as-
sistants are open to women who have
had at least two years in college.

exemplify a development of American
folk music in the Smokey Mountain
section of the Southeast.
"Handsome Winsome Johnny" is of
Scotch origin and is considered to
have arrived with the Highlanders
who settled in the mountains shortly
after the Revolution. "Ole Smokey"
is of later origin and is the product
of the descendants of these settlers.
Other folk tunes to be presented
are "Hard Time Blues," a work song,
and "Ration Song" which was origi-
nally found in Carl Sandburg's "Am-
erican Song-Bag" and revived by Lib-
by Holman and Josh White.
"One Meat Ball"
One Meat Bal," an old English sea
chantey, originally entitled 'One Cod-
fish Ball" is about 400 years old. It
has recently been revived by Josh
White with new lyrics by Lou Singer
and Hy. Zaret and has gained wide
popularity with record fans.
Miss Holman and Mr. White pre-
sent their songs with guitar accompa-
niment. The structure of the songs
is traditional, providing a framework
within which a free interpretation can
be delivered.
