Navy Assures WAVES Officers
Assignments in Chosen Fields

Coed Help
Needed To

Is

With the adoption of a new policy
by the Women's Reserve of the U.S.
Navy, successful WAVES officer can-
didates are assured of assignment in
the field for which they have an-
nounced preference upon application,
according to Lt. (j.g.) Helen Stewart,
WAVES recruiting officer who re-
cently visited Ann Arbor.
Women applying for officer can-
didacy may specify the field of ser-
vice in which they wish to work, Lt.
Stewart . said, and a candidate is
accepted with the understanding that
if she passes officers' training she
will be commissioned for her special
field. If the candidate does not pass,
she has the choice of remaining in
the Navy as a member of the enlisted
personnel or returning to civilian life.
Seniors May Enter Reserve
Since there are quotas for officers
in each type of work, the WAVES
have a system of priorities by which
applications are considered. Among
fields rating a number one priority
are occupational therapy, office man-
agement, supplies and accounts and
statistics. Women who apply for oth-
er fields have less of a chance for
acceptance to candidacy, although,
Lt. Stewart said, there are still,
opportunities in many other occupa-
tions.
A coed now in the second semester

of her senior year may apply for
officer candidacy, and if accepted
she will enter the V-9 reserve pro-
gram for college students. Applicants
must secure recommendation from a;
faculty committee, about which fur-
ther information may be obtained
from Miss Alice Lloyd, Dean of
Women.
Choice of Fields Broad
The fields for which college women
may apply are: accounting, adminis-;
tration, aerology, cartography, chern-
istry, communications, cryptanalysis,
educational services, institutional
management, law, library science,
mathematics, office management,
personnel work, physics.
Also included are purchasing, radar
administration, statistics, supply
corps, welfare and recreation, writ-
ing and editing, bacteriology, .hel-
minthology, parasitology, serology,
dental hygiene, medical research,
occupational therapy, physical ther-!
apy and physiolbgy.
Although experience is desirable
for all programs offered, it is not an
essential requirement for aerology,
chemistry, communications, crypt-
analysis and educational services.
Further information may be ob-
taimed fromLt. Stewart, who is per-
manently stationed on the niinth floor
of the Book Building in Detroit.

Run Laundry
Workers Handle Clean Linen
In Pleasant Surroundings of
University-Operated Service
The University Laundry must have
coed help if it is to continue its ser-
vices this summer, according to Peg
Weiss, War Council personnel ad-
ministrator, who yesterday urged
University women to give a part of
their time and energy to keeping the
laundry in operation.
Workers are paid 53 cents an hour,'
and are asked to work a minimum
of six hours each week. The hours
may be distributed through the week
from Monday morning to Saturday
noon.
"Coed workers handle only clean
linen," Miss Weiss said, "and work
is done in clean, light, airy surround-
ings. The laundry is University-op-
erated, and without our help it can-
not continue its service."
University Laundry handles all of
the table linen, sheets, pillow cases,
towels, operating gowns, patients'
pajamas and gowns and wrapping
cases for dressings for University
Hospital The Laundry also services
the League, Union and East and West
Quadrangles.
Women are asked to do only light
work, such as folding, sorting and
piling, at the laundry, which is open
from 7:30 a.m, to 5:30 P.m. every day.

THIS WAVE-and hundreds like her helps keep 'em flying. She is
an important cog in the machinery which makes Navy fliers. As a
Link Trainer Instructor, her job is to give directions to fliers, seated
in cockpits of stationary training planes. The instrument in front
of her, called a "crab," records how well the pilot carries out those
directions. As a result of this kind of training, hazards are greatly
reduced for pilots when they go aloft. The inset shows a rating badge
worn by Link Trainer Instructors, the "T" meaning teacher. A new
booklet about the WAVES is available at Navy Recruiting Offices.

JGP To Hold
Meeting Today
Summer Stamp Drive Will
Begin with Mass Gathering
At least one representative from
each undergraduate women's house
must attend the mass meeting of
junior Girls Project at 3:30 p.m.
tomorrow in the Grand Rapids Room
of the League, according to Jean
Hotchkin, '46, JOP summer chair-
man.
The purpose of Junior Project is
to sell war bonds and stamps to stu-i
dents, and a quota of sales for the
summer will be set at the meeting.
Undergraduate houses will be can-
vassed during the summer term in
the juniors' attempt to aid in keeping
down prices and providing funds for
the war effort through all-campus
participation.
A repeat performance of last sum-
mer's outdoor "JGP July Jamboree"
is in order, Miss Hotchkin said, and
the event will be scheduled for early
August. Last summer's "Jamboree"
provided carnival booths, sports, en-
tertainment, and dancing on Palmer
Field and in the Women's Athletic
Building, and from the number of
people attending and the number of
stamps sold was pronounced a great
success by the '43 JGP committee.
All admissions were in the form of
stamp purchases.
The stamp booth which last sum-
mer stopped traffic in the middle of
the Diagonal will be reinstated, ac-
cording to Miss Hotchkin, and sales
in the League Lobby will continue
throughout the term.
All House Presidents must at-
tend a compulsory meeting at
4:30 p. m. tomorrow in the League,
according to Pat Coulter, Presi-
dent of the Women's War Council.
