Ind May & trPi The other wives at "the hatchery" campus nickname for Indiana uni versity's trailer home community for war vets Just couldn't under stand the viewpoint of little Mrs. Vivian Bolingcr. "I wish George would stay for a year of graduate work after getting his degree." she said. Wonderingly the word swept through the other remodeled wartime trailers, lined up in neat rows by the hundreds west of the university stadium: "Vivian wants George to stay another year." Most veterans and their wives, particularly those with children, want to move on as soon as the family head wins his sheepskin. They want to leave their cramped quarters and get started somewhere in new homes. Vivian she is pretty and red haired and her husband calls her "Curly" is an exception. Life is crowded in their small s25-a-month trailer but it has been haopy. "And I Just hate the thought of trying to find another place to live," sighed Curly. Like the wives of many veterans she hps an out side job to helo eke out the gov ernment educational allowance of S90 a month. She doesn't mind working. Most veterans to remain in school have had to borrow from relatives or spend their wartime savings. Curlv's husband, a iournalism stu dent w ho worked In Gary steel mMls before spending 18 months in the Pacific, is 29. He's anxious to get started in a newspaper career. So is his pal. Joe Gingery. 24. In dianapolis, a former atrforce gt'n ner in the European theater. Joe shares a $32.50 trailer with his wife, Pamela, and their three children. Nelson is 4 years old and the twins. Walter iRedi and Joe iBIuei are two. Walter is dressed In red and little Joe In blue so each can tell himself from the other. The three Gingery children swarm over the 18-by-20-foot trailer like a trio of healthy, husky bear cubs. Their mother, a large friendly girl of placid temperament, has to pack them off to the community nursery when she wants to do houseclean Ing. "It makes a big difference In mv wife's disposition whether the kids get to nursery school or not." grin ned Joe. Pamela cooks on a small gp '"tie stove, finds housework somethlur of These three offlrers have headed the Fremont Parent-Teacher asso ciation during the past year. Above, left to right. Sirs.

II has to be pack ed about iS feet from a community outdoor faucet. The families also must use community laundry and toilet lacilitics. "I don't mind carrying the wuter in." said Pamela, "but I do get tired of having to carry it back out after housecleaning Just to throw it away." Pamela Is studying a college course on "personal adjustment and family living." She likes It. and Just laughed when I asked her If she didn't think she already knew more about that subject than the pro fessor. She said the wives get along well and help each other in many ways. "I feel I can stick It out until my husband gets through collece." she said. The Glngerys and Boltngers said they knew of only one veteran and his wife who had failed to stay until the husband completed his university work. M"' veterans are pretty handy Idle Pay Fund Gets Refund With hundreds of doubtful claims constantly being checked and re checked for possible "chiseling." workers have repaid to the Oregon unemployment coinpeiiMitlou coin mission 7ft.887, well over half of the SM0.135 In over-payment t m'l up in the past nine years. It was rriKirted today by Administrator Silas Oaisrr. Of the total more than tM.Ooa w-iis collected by the commission on pre-war claims, while about 10 000 already has been returned bv thtxse i laid ulf since the end of hostilities. Investigations proceeded through out the war, but both benefits mid repayments were extremely low. "While we have not had the per sonnel available to re-check every one of (he 103.000 claims fllrd In l'.na and as many mure In llMJ or ttH7, a goodly proportion have been through our readjustment unit," commented Mr. Oalser. "This Is a constant process In addttlcn to all . the usual controls at the local office ' and central office levels." Of a recent group of 8000 claims I re-cheeked, a thousand, were held ; for further Investigation. Minor ad justments resulted In 61 cases, some , with refunds while 33 came up for prosecution. men around the trailer and pitch In and help with the dishes, but one wile complained wryly: "Its funny how many classes they suddenly discover they have to go to when somehtlng's got to be done around the house." But Joe kept the babies once when I Went home for a visit." said Pamela, "and everybody thought he was a wonderful husband." "You didn't think so." Joe said, "when vou got bark and saw what the trailer looked like." mi Dawn Frota 40-14 Drttt Silt Mother of Four Lost 45 Pounds Slender Graceful Figure Mn. Dorothy Snodgrott, 7 7a koi ! Imttaiu wy.
