Wacs Have Choice Of Variety of Jobs Two hundred and thirty-nine types of army work are being done now by members of the women’s army corps. Experience in civilian life has prepared the average Am erican woman for one of these jobs. At the training center a classification specialist interviews each recruit in an effort to put her in the work which she likes to do best. Training in special skills is offered those who have no skill which the army can use or who desire a change. A woman who enters the Wac has her choice of the army ait forces, the army ground forces, or the army service forces. As a member of the air forces, the Wac may find herself inspecting a para chute on which the life of a flyer may depend. Keeping delicate in struments in adjustment or draft maps used by navigators, or speak ing over the microphone of a con trol tower to launch planes on dis tan missions may be the job to which she is assigned. In the army ground forces Wacs work at one of the service schools or training centers. At a drawing board, one Wac drafts the mechan ical details of a tank or a tank destroyer; another drives and re pairs trucks, jeeps, or cars; still another operates a switchboard or does administrative or personnel work. Scores of important jobs are i available in the army service j forces. These deal with administra- j tion, communications; equipment, finances, food, procurement, and transportation of men and supplies t othe theaters of war, and dozens of other assignments. Easter Bunny May Find Six in Sick Bay It wouldn't surprise the sick-bay reporter one bit to find out, come Monday, that the Easter bunny had presented six students with presents beneath their pillows at the infirmary. The roll call for Wednesday includes Jean Taylor, Terry Hubbard, Dorothy Frideger, Helen Luvaas, Mary Winn, and Fred E. Miller. One last minute hope is that they won’t really have to spend the holiday in bed. 804 Willamette and 917 Willamette Cake Makeup For that Natural look.
