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. CIGARETTE ROLLERS Fits into vest pocket- ladies' purse service kits.

"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.

"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.
