positions as lawyers. stock brokers
and sales managers in civilian life"
In fact, the zeal of the staff Is
just as remarkable as the zeal of the
youngsters, one of whom described
this 12-week course from which he
will emerge as a naval aviation
cadet as "a race between the stu
dents and the officers to see who
wears out first"
All the 150-odd Reserve officers on
the school staff are volunteers.
Many have had to make wholesale
revisions in their scale Of living to
get along on Navy pay. All had
to go through intensive. tough in
doctrination courses before they
were assigned here.
The academic and military in
struction staffs put in two months
at Quonset, r. l., living under typi-
cal Naval Academy discipline and
being schooled as administrative
officers who could be assigned to
aircraft carriers and naval bases to
free other officers for attention
strictly to flying duties. 4

The athletic staff, headed by 1t.
Comdr. Harvey Harman, former
Penn and Rutgers football coach,
and 1t. Comdr. Jim Crowley, former
Fordham football coach, went
through a four week course at An
| napolis.
They had to take orders from
new ensigns sometimes barely half
their age; had to learn how to make
their own beds with hospital cor
ners) and police their quarters: had
to go through hours of close-order
drill, which the Navy and the Army
still find the best means of making
obedience to command instructive.
Yet they did it cheerfully, and to-
day some OF their favorite anecdotes
concern the fearful dressing down
they got from Ensign So-and-So for
a minor infraction of the regula-
tions.
More important, today they are
imparting that hard-learned disci-
pline and endless enthusiasm to q
flock of eager youngsters, first prod

FORT DES MONIES. Iowa, July
18.-An Army chaplain who has
spent the last Is years with
"leathernecks, roughnecks and
horses" will help to minister the
spiritual needs of the Women's Army
Auxiliary Corps here.
Col John MacWilliams, 50,
doesn't expect, however, that his
new assignment as adviser to the
WAAC flock will carry him to the
other extreme Of distracted and
weeping women.
"A lot of butterfly girls have the
idea that this is going to be great
adventure" he says in his soft Texas
voice.
But so much care is being used
in selecting the candidates that I
don't believe such girls will have
look-in."
Chaplain MacWillians and his
Catholic associate, the Rev. Urban
j. Baer, will supervise the religious
side of the WAAC training school.
Col. MacWilliams is school chaplain
and Father Baer is post chaplain.
No Idleness in Army.
Chaplain MacWilliamS also be-
ieves the severe selection process,
under which dozens of applicants
will be rejected for each one ac-
cepted, will dispose OF the conduct
question beforehand. He says con-
Germ over the conduct Of Army men
usually is expanded all out OF pro-
portion, anyhow.
idle brains are the devils work
SHOP" he declares. 1--WE don't have
any idleness in the Army. There
is always something for q soldier
to do"
He doesn't expect the problems
of the women to be much different
than those of the ordinary Army
recruit. The first 40 WAAC officer
candidates will report here Monday.
"They are going to ask all sorts
of questions about officers, men, the
Army In general" he says, "just
as Army nurses do now. I expect
some may be completely at sea about
the whole thing and others just
plain lonesome"

terian, has seen service IN various
parts Of the United States. ~includ-
