To Train Women
An increasing number of women

in industry. Particularly is there
a demand for college women.
According to plans made by
Curtiss-Wright Corporation, Am­
erica’s largest producer of war­
planes, 'engines, and propellers,
women candidates, to be known
as “Cadettes” will be enrolled
February 1, 1943 as engineering
student employees of the company
in custom-built aviation courses of
10 months. In December, 1943, the
“Cadettes” will enter various
plants of the corporation in the
East and Middle West to take
over engineering positions there­
by releasing already overloaded
engineers for more creative duties.
The Corporation announced that
“Cadettes” will receive tuition,
room and board, plus a salary of
ten dollars per week. They will
be registered as special students
living in special sections of college
residence buildings and will re­
ceive all benefits and privileges
of regular students.
The program will be adminis(Continued on page 4)

Mr. Oliver Wester, recently a
student teacher in the campus
training school, was unexpectedly
called to active duty in the Meteor­

ing and Friday night departed

he expects to enter a new Air
Corps school.
President of Edinboro’s StudentFaculty Cooperative Government
Council, Mr. Wester was a member
of the Senior Class and an active
member of Phi Sigma Pi Frater­
nity. Since his work only lacked
two weeks of comnletion he is
being graduated as he was sched­
uled to do at (the end of this
semester.
Mr. Richard Rockwell, a senior
who had been doing student teach­
ing in Erie in the field of art,
was called to active duty in the
Army Air Corps several days
ago.
