Medford Girl Enrolls in Engineering San Luis Obispo - Three VOUnff freshmpn wnman ot California State Polytechnic college are challenging the tracmonai men s field of elec tronics ene neerlns. . Thev are Linda G. Bowman -wnutier; Kathcrine E. Steen, Fresno, and Linda R. Miller Medford. OrcBon. Clnrnnno Radius, electronic engineering department head at Cal Poly, emphasized that there are nn formidable barriers-to women in the field and that serious- minded young women are en couraged to consider engineer ing. "Women are being accented into the orofession. with equal monetary rewards," Ra dius said. "With ereatlv In. creased automation in the home and business office. women engineers are making distinct contribution. In do. signing appliances and elec tronic systems traditionally operated by women, for ex ample." ' HlCh school nhvelpfl and ar- ence courses provided the initial challenge In engineer ing for each of the three Cal Poly girls. Various motives led them to choose the field of electronics. Miss Bowman dislikes the physical labor re quired in other engineering fields. Miss Steen was fasci nated by the electrical system of an automobile, and hopes to go into designing comput ers. Possessing, a profound be lief that there is a theory of vibration heretofore undiscov ered. Miss Miller intends to enter research that could pos sibly revolutionize present ra dar and sonar apparatus. In stating their reasons for entering Cal Poly, which is one of the largest electronics engineering training centers In the field, each expressed her appreciation of the col lege's upside down, learn by doing philosophy of education. Eligible for entrance into any engineering college in the nation, they were attracted to Cal Poly by its complete cur riculum, they said. Commenting on women en tering the field, Radius dis closed that a recent Engineer ing Manpower commission re port revealed that one-third of Russia's engineering stu dents are women. He stated that these schools currently graduate 108,000 engineers annually, against 38,000 bach elor of science engineers in this country of which approx imately 100 are women. "T here are not enough young men with engineering aptitudes graduating with the necessary scholastic record from our high schools that qualify for entrance into state college or university engineer ing divisions," Radius explain ed. "The ranks will have to be filled by ambitious and tal ented girls." 1 Householders Use Tubes by Millions New York -WPD- Some 180 million Americans squeeze al most 1,2,00 million tubes every year to get at their toothpaste, cosmetics and anchovy paste, a trade council reports. That s 6 23 tubes per per son, and the number still is going up, reported the Col lapsible Tube Manufacturers Council. Cosmetics led the in crease. The council reported that metal tube shipments for the first half of 1960 totalled 394 million, a two per cent in crease over last year. Tubes shipped for cosmetics increas ed by five per cent, those used for pharmaceuticals were up three per cent, and even the familiar toothpaste dispenser was up by two per Former Medford Woman Now Living in Germany Mrs. Charles C. Sater, for many years a Medford resi dent, is now in Bad Homburg Germany, with her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs S. L. Snider and family. Mr. Snider is a flight engineer for Pan-American Airways, and has been sent to Frankfurt for a three-year tour of duty In a recent letter to Med ford friends, Mrs. Sater de scribed the family's trip to Germany by jet airliner. Mrs, Sater, ' remembered here for her work with the extension service, in garden clubs and with First Christian church, left Medford after her hus band's death and for a time was housemother for Alph; Phi sorority at Oregon State college. Mrs. Sater's letter follows: After many years of "want ing to but wondering how and when," my trip to Europe really started when the Pan American Jet clipper lifted into the. air at 9:40 a.m. San Francisco for the flight to Los Angeles. It was marvelous to fly, and to fly first class. At 10 a.m. we were served orange juice, coffee, tea and rolls. Los Angeles smog was sighted at 10:23 and at 10:45 the passengers got off at In- glewood airport. The Lor Angeles Times was given to us to read during the 4-hour and 31-minute ride to Montreal. Beginning about 12:30 p.m. pink canyons could be seen from the plane for miles and miles but the clouds closed in and later when they cleared the only view was many thousands of acres of farm land cut into neat little oblongs and squares, as seen from 29,000 feet. Beginning at 1 p.m. with shrimp cocktail and ending around 2:15, so much and so many types of food and drink were served, that Gary, the 10-year-old, asked "Don't they ever run out of food?" There were only 17 passengers to serve in that section. Rain closed in about 3 p.m. California time and we ar rived in Montreal at 4:20. . Due to lack of space in the Montreal airport we were not allowed to get off. Soon after, the 5-hour and 42-minute ride started to London, a light supper of juice, creamed chicken or fish patties, salads, sandwiches and fresh fruits was served. A jet plane ride is not the way to reduce. A pretty car nation was on each tray which gave some of the love ly hues missing in the yellow northern lights. Sorority Plans Preferential Tea Plans have been completed for the annual preferential tea of Alpha Beta chapter, Beta Sigma Phi. ' This event will be given in honor of the new pledges Sunday, October 30, at the home of Mrs. Stephen G. Nye, HUlcrcst road, from 2 until 4 o clock. The last meeting was at the home of Mrs. Ray Jones, 1525 Lenora drive. Mrs. David Irv ing presented the program "Her Crowning Glory." Guest for the evening was Mrs. O. A. Eden, sponsor and hono rary member of the chapter. Refreshments were served by the hostess, and the co- hostesses Mrs. Gerald Nelson and Mrs. Richard Wager. The next meeting will be on Tuesday, October 25, at the home of Mrs. Fred Stock, 1320 Queen Anne avenue. 1 To Leave Mr. and Mrs. Fred Norris. 1906 Roberts road, recently visited their son and family at Klamath Falls. The Norrises have sold their home here, have purchased a trailer house, and plan to leave soon for Arizona where they will spend the winter. a Meeting Planned For Mistletoe Club Members of Mistletoe club are asked to take scissors to a meeting of the club set for Wednesday, October 26, at 12:30 p.m. at Girls Commu nity club. Dessert will be served. Training Session Set for Leaden Phoenix Girl Scout leaders of the Holly Neighborhood will hold a training meeting in the home of Mrs. M. Don ald McGeary, 3745 Calhoun road, Wednesday, October 26, from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. Our fleeting glimpse. of London area was intriguing with the pretty English cot tages and the bits of land cut not in squares but in varied shapes like the pieces of the velvet and silk quilt tops that grandmothers used to make The 54 degrees air was ' re freshing and we needed it when the stewardess told that our miniature poodle, Gi, would be transferred to the plane to Frankfurt and go on immediately, but that we would not be able to get our luggage, so we "pioneered until the next afternoon. It was only an hour to Frankfurt and we traveled tourist this time. It took three stewardesses almost the hour to prepare, serve and clear the breakfast for all the passengers except for the five of us. They had to wash all of those dishes and utensils also. It was 1:30 a.m. by our watches so we moved them ahead nine hours to Franfurt time. Leave Dog Behind D Gl was left in Frankfurt for examination, while we were taken the 12 miles to Bad Hamburg to the Ritter Park hotel. It is rated as supe rior, is just across from the beautiful Kurpark which has many big trees, lawn, -flowers a large and impressive red brick building, the "Kaiser- Wilhelm Bad," a Siamese tem ple and a Russian chapel fountain, a lake, a play ground, golf course and other attractions to be seen later. We haven't been to the "spiel- bank" (gambling casino) or to the schloss (castle). The roadsides made me think of Oregon with their rose hips, blackberries, pink clover and dandelions. The road was being built mostly by manpower, one big cater- pillar to dig, the rest - wheel barrows, shovels et cetra. Its a freeway, or autobahn. There were geraniums, be gonias, Zinnias, marigolds, as ters, red slavia, marguerites, dahlias, nicotiana, dusty mil ler: lavender, gerander, for- g e t-me-nots, rhododendrons, cotoneasters, roses, cosmos, maples, ash, chestnut, quak ing asp, oak, liquid amber and pine trees and some that do not know yet. The flow er shops carry about the same flowers as in Medford or San Francisco shops. The chrys anthemums are beautiful now, also the roses, carnations and transvaal daisies. The red roses are almost black on the outside and some of the car nations are almost orange. They carry the same "Oregon weeds for dried arrangements. The traffic signs have pic tures - a man walking, a man working with a shovel black car on the right, a red car at the left (no, passing). Our American drivers' license will be translated to German. This Friday we'll have a 4 door 1950 Opel to drive. Lin coln is renting a Volkswagen until then. Praises Clerki The clerks are very nice here, especially in the camera and electric shops. In places that are not too busy, they ask you to be seated, escort you to, and open the door for you and tell you goodbye aft er your purchases. The food is good; frankfur ters taste more like meat and contain less spice - that is excellent. The Germans are dog lov ers so the poodle is accept ed in the hotel (not in the dining room) and in most restaurants. In restaurants there are pa pers and maybe magazines for customers to read. These are put back in their place neatly by the patrons Bad rioDurg is a town oi 32,000 population. People dress neatly here. Little boys wear brief leather shorts. Many boys have rosy checks, Little girls wear "knee bend- stockings, three-quarter length, so Dee Ann my grand daughter has some now. From a restaurant you may go to a sweet shop for dessert nd select what you want. The cakes, the cookies and candy all look delicious. Then you go to a table and order something to drink while you eat your dessert. I've seen no pie so far. The water is good but who drinks it? I enjoy it. Coffee is expensive and so is tea. Will discuss housing next time. NOTICE CAREERS UNLIMITED of HOLLYWOOD will open a new Charm and Modeling Center in this area with in the next month.
