Stewardess
Recommends
Own Career
United Press International
The dean of airline steward-
. esses has her head in the
clouds where flying is con1
cerned.
Mary O'Connor, chief stew
ardess for United Air Lines,
says flying is "the most won
derful thing in the world" and
being a stewardess the most
rewarding occupation for a
- woman.
She counts as rewards: sal
ary $290 a month for a begin-
ner, more than $650 for a
chief stewardess; a chance to
talk to many people ("women
are a gabby bunch, you
''..know!"); and the opportunity
to meet a future husband
("most flight officers are
. young and good looking").
Pretty, blonde Miss O'Con
nor, who celebrated her 25th
year in the air last May, has
had another reward - "Main
liner O'Connor," the execu
tive plane used by United
President Wjlliam Patterson,
was named for her.'
' Miss O'Connor figures she
has flown more than six mil
lion miles since she, stepped
.aboard a tri-motor passenger
'plane of National Air Trans
port, predecessor company of
' UAL, at Kansas City in 1933.
' She says she's met at least
10,000 persons, many of them
celebrities.
Miss O'Connor trained as a
registered nurse. She turned
to the airlines for a job be
cause people couldn't afford
i? to hire private nurses during
" the depression.
During World War II, she
' took out time to organize the
Navy's air evacuation corps
and taught nurses and airmen
how to treat patients in the
air. -
As chief stewardess, shij
spends mucn oi her time
speaking to clubs about air
travel. She doesn't fly as
much as she used to - "only
about 100,000 to 200,000 miles
a year."
