Representative
of WAVE's
Will Be Here
Chief Allan Kay, of the WAVES,
will be at the Ann Arbor Post Office
Building, south basement entrance,
from eleven a. in. to four p. m. to-
morrow to talk to women about the
service.
Michigan's WAVE applications
showed a marked increase during the
week following news of the invasion,
it was reported by Lieut. Cmdr. By-
ron E. Flechtner, officer in charge
of Lower Michigan Navy recruiting.
"It is gratifying to note the fine
manner in which women of this
state have reacted to the invasion
news," said Comdr. Flechtner. "It
shows their patriotism in responding
to their country's needs."
Explaining that thousands more
WAVES are needed to take over jobs
of Navy men now assigned in this
country, he urged other women to
investigate the opportunities offered
in the WAVES.
Enlistment in the WAVES is open
to women, 20 to 36 years old, who
are U. S. citizens and have had at
least two years of high school or
business school.

New Try-Out
PolicyAdopted
By Women
Newcomers Are Urged To
Attend Meeting Tomorrow; E
Rapid Advancement Possiblej
The Daily women's staff will in-t
augurate a new policy concerning
summer session staff members, it was
announced yesterday by Peg Weiss,
summer women's editor.
While persons with no previous ex-1
perience in newswriting will receivej
instruction, women who have work-
ed on other newspapers may start
their careers as reporters immedi-
ately with a brief explanation of
Daily style..
After the all-staff meeting at 4:301
p. m. tomorrow, new members will+
have a chance to show what they
can do in the line of news and
headline writing. Those who showl
satisfactory ability and experience1
will be given beats to cover immedi-
ately.+
Instruction To Be Given
Tryouts who have had no news-
paper experience will find this seme-
ster an opportunity to learn prac-
tical journalism. Older staff mem-
bers will teach newswriting and
headline-writing, and after some
practice the novices will be given
assignments of actual writing for
the Daily pages.
Each member of the staff is asked
to work on "night-desk" once a
week, work which begins at 4 p. m.
and usually lasts until 6 or 7
p. m. While the night editor "makes
up" the page for the next day, other
staff members write headlines and
read copy.
Promotion Possible
Staff members who show ability
are promoted to junior night-editor-
ships, paid jobs which bear the
responsibility of putting out each
women's, page. From these positions,
coeds are eligible for senior positions:
women's editor and associate women's
editor.
Work during the summer session
offers to coeds interested in journal-
ism the opportunity to get a "flying
start" on the Daily, for the staff
will be smaller than usual

WAC Assignments

Based on Previous College Work

The coming WAC recruiting drive
will provide an opportunity for June
graduates and graduating seniors to
exchange their caps and gowns for
the trim uniform of the WAC, and to
help perform the 293 different types
of Army duties now taken over by
the women.
WACs are in demand for the Army
Air Forces to dispatch giant cargo
planes and to instruct in the use of
Link-trainers. They are needed in
the Army ground forces where they
make military maps and do admini-
strative work, and in the Army ser-
vice forces which keep American
soldiers equipped, supplied with food
and ammunition, and in good health.
A background in physical sciences
opens the door to many fields. In
some cases, college training alone is
sufficient; in others, the Afmy sup-
plies supplementary training. Among
the available assignments which use
physical science training are medi-
cal technician, chemist, physics lab-
oratory assistant, and electrical in-

strument repairman.
Psychology, sociology and other
social sciences equip a WAC to take
on the duties of personnel technician,
psychological assistant, classification
specialist, personnel consultant, and
assistant or personnel noncommis-
sioned officer.
Fine arts training helps in carto-
graphy, entertainment, or theatrical
productions, while English is useful
in performing the job of public rela-
tions specialist, reporter or canvas-
ser for recruiting.

dent.
