 Right now she has 6 plan which would enable newspa- per women to volunteer their ser- vices by acting as liaison officers between local army camps and her central Washington bureau. They can spot regional army do- ings of interest to women and send them in to her to be passed along to feminine readers all over the country.
 Oveta Hobby Is in touch with women in many cities and has always been active in public life. She started out as a law student, and has written a text book on parliamentary law which is used in Texas and Louisiana schools. She was legal clerk in the Texas State Legislature at the age of 19, and codified the state banking law before she was 25. Then. sne married William Pettus Hobby and moved to Houston to live.
 But she just couldn't sit back and be a home-body. So she started in as research editor on her hus- bands paper. From there she, ad- vanced to book editor, assistant sd- itor, and finally was elected to the executive vice-presidency in 1888.

There are so many things mothers and wives and sweet hearts gre wondering and some times worrying about concerning army life" says oveta Hobby in her attractive drawl. Food and recreation are part of it, but there are other things, too. For in- stance, there is the opportunity to develop leadership that is given to the men few people think of that angle of army life"
 She feels that the basic equal ity of army standing enables many boys who might feel infer- for in private life to gain confi- dence and show what's really in them.
 Thirty-five-year-old oveta is snappy, attractive and up-to-date, and has been & newspaper woman for ten years. Actually she's on leave from her position as executive vice-president of the Houston (Tex- as) Post, of which her husband is publisher. What does husband think about wife who leaves home to join the army? "Oh, we talked it all over, says Mrs. Hobby, and he finally decided it would be all right.
