Two Detroit physicians recon-
mended today a rehearsed and
fully organized system for coping
with future major disasters at
Receiving Hospital as an after
math of the recent race riots.
The proposal. appearing in the
American M c d C a Association
News, was based on the expert
ence of the hospital staff in
handling an unanticipated 433
admissions during the two-day
outbreak, June 20-2l.
Despite the fact that Receiving
Hospital was primarily designed

statement pointed out. the usual
routine is not adequate 10 handle
such situations with proper eff
ficiency.

lHE truck rolled out to the
highway. Here in the drivers cab
he was alone with Susan. With
Joe's wife, the wife of the boy
who's over fighting the Huns. He
had plans for Susan and the truck.
It's setup, Otto. An unsuspect-

The highway invited speed. But
it was a highway with a motor
cop on it, coming head on, slowing.
Susan slowed the truck, stopped.
Let the girl handle this, Otto.
"Hullo, Nick"
Morning, Susan. Who's the

down the slight declivity toward
the Browns place, growing smaller

eral of the Daughters Of the Amer

I'VE are approaching the decisive
stages of the global conflict Mrs.
William H. Pouch said in her mes
sage to OAR chapters. Many have
been and will be called upon to make
the supreme sacrifice.
Memorial Day, therefore, takes
now new significance. 1t is no
longer dedicated to those who sleep
in Flanders Field and to those of
other struggles dating back to our
Revolution. We now think of Pearl
Harbor, Bataan, Guadalcanal and
North Africa.
In all of our wars the price of
lack of adequate preparedness has
been paid with the lives of Amer
ican boys. It was so in the First

road to victory and when that un-
conditional victory is attained we

Teen.Age Girl Delinquency Analysed
Mrs. II. S. Elliott Cites
Upset of Normal Life
By Frances Lide,
Women's Club Editor.

What is the basis of today's "juve-
nile delinquency" problem insofar
as it involves teen-age girls?
An interesting analysis was given
last week by Mrs. Harrison S. Elliott,
national president of the Young
Women's Christian Associations of
the United States and author of
several books on the psychological
problems of both adults and Adde'S
cents.
Delinquency among girls, Mrs.
Elliott remarked, is the perfectly
normal result of what's happening
to them"
Today's adolescent girl has few
of the normal opportunities for ex-
preston which her older sisters en-
joyed, the YWCA president ex-
planned

There's an atmosphere of tension

been solved over a double banana

An inferiority complex caused by
taunts during childhood, you're too
small to do this or that" gave petite
Paulette d'Avril the determination
to fly shortly after her arrival in the
United States few years ago.
Standing exactly feet II inches
in her stockings and weighing 100
pounds, Mile. d'Avril, a native of
Bordeaux, France, is a frequent Wis
itor to Washington from her home
in New York. While here last week
she lamented a telegram recently
received from the training school
for WAAFS in Texas, rejecting her
as a candidate because of her
height.
isn't it just TERRIBLE" she asked.
Here have been flying for over 10
years, with hundreds of hours in the
air in many kinds of planes, and
just because I am lee-tle, I cannot
join the WAAFS"
Mile. d'Avril sighed over her dis
appointment as she showed the
telegram which read: Regret can
not accept due to physical qualifica-
tions for height measurement"

to ferry one of those big bombers
