Women in Austria
Women are making such rapid
inroads into Austrian trades and
professions that some men fear
in a few years they will lose
control of all key positions, as­
serts a Vienna United Press cor­
respondent. The women, as might
be expected, dominate certain
trades like ladies’ tailoring, clerk-,
ing and stenography, but the as­
tounding thing is that 19 per cent
of the country’s'pharmacists are
women. 8 per cent of the coun-[
try’s doctors, 15.2 per cent of the
dentists and 3.1 per cent of the
lawyers.
One-fourth of Austria’s private
instructors, musicians, writers
and journalists are women, while
even in the field of engineering
there are 36 accredited feminine
engineers. In the textile indus­
try 60 to 80 per cent of the work­
ers are women, while one-third
of the total farmers are female.

Tramp Athletes Are

I make no effort here to unravel
the minds of such talented mes-

premise that even though education
may not do husky kids any real
good it probably won’t seriously
damage them—the way is opened
for a discussion of more wholesome
things.

Do you doubt it? There are N. Y.

their Alma Mater tilted the scholar­

Meehan came to the institution ten
years ago. The shrewd and earthy

year Dr. Graham, one of the saner

who long had realized that the yen

keeping this human craving in
check. He sought merely to have
the number of athletic scholarships
limited and awarded in full view.
It was sound reasoning that de­

hopelessly mauled, a milder penalty
for the foul merely would pave the
way for really serious injuries.
