following the introduction of
BWOC's to the Curtiss-Wright

that are real steady noted around
the place are Mickey McKee and
Marty Duff, and Tawny Hill and
Ray Fortunato, phi delt. . . .
Seems the maid in Ath Hall East
went on strike last week and re
fused to clean up the concoction
some of the coeds cooked up Sat

juice, perfume, nail polish remov
er, and soap chips in it . . . that’s
the same corridor where they had
a bicycle in for some recreation
and exercise. . . .
Before we finish, one suggestion
for the assistant dean of women
... go look at some of the files
of letters from the boys in camp
and find what they want to read
... we did, and therefore, don’t
feel guilty in the least in what
we say here.

Rationing Necessary
In 40-Hour Week
Curtiss-Wright Cadettes met
coed campus leaders last night at
WSGA’s mass meeting. And so the
welcome is over. We feel now that
they are a part of our College
even though they are but tempo
rary coeds.
Because we have only about 20
hours a week on our liberal arts
schedules, we find it the least bit
hard and silly to do any advising
or correcting for those who are
here with slide rules, math books
and a 40-hour week. But it may
be that a few tips on activities and
how they can fit into a schedule
would be in order.
Invitations to campus activities
will be conservative for two defi
nite reasons. One is because many
of the active groups are organized
on a semester basis and have no
room for late comers. The other is
because the Cadettes’ extended
working program. allows little
time for extra-curricular action.
Thespians and Players, the Col
lege’s musical and dramatics so
cieties respectively, welcome any
new talent. Both are preparing for
shows in the near future and ask
interested Cadettes to note when
meetings and tryouts are held and
then be there.
A surgical dressing class, which
meets on the first floor of Home
Economics at 6:30 p.m. Thursdays,
is open to anyone who will bring
a smock, kerchief, ruler, and pair
of scissors. State College’s quota
is' 20,000 dressings, and • there is
much to be done toward the reach
ing of it.
All dther activities as outlined
in the meeting last night are open
to Cadettes if they want them.
The 40-hour week shouldn’t be
a “stopper” on Cadette activities,
but it might act as a restrainer.
Oil your slide-rules with activi
ties, but remember “Oil is ammu
nition . . . use it wisely.”
Four IN Nafmen Advance

Going into the fifth round of
