By the Way
BETH BLAINE

Mrs. William Austin is in charge
of interviewing the women who
volunteer to the Antiaircraft VOL
unteers, and right now, especially
with the drive on for more volun-
teers, that's very important job.
This interviewing Office is the
only contact that the AAV work
has with the outside. AS you
all know the Antiaircraft Volun-
teers work on the filter and oper-
ations boards at the control CEN
ter, where the course of every
plane in the sky is charted and
watched. And as you can imagine
1t Is not only a vital part of our
defense but a very direct part.
The Antiaircraft Volunteers. work
for the Army and those who took
part in the Army War Show
Back the Attack" were the only
civilians in the show.
Every day from 10 to S Except
Saturday when the hours are
from 10 to 1900 the AAV Office
at 1924 F street is stated, and for
the convenience of the women
who work during the day the
hours are extended to o'clock
Monday and Wednesday nights.
1t Is Mrs. Austin, who, as inter-
viewing aide, runs the Office and
1t is she who passes Judgment on
whether or not you will make a
good Antiaircraft Volunteer. The
work is important and not too
easy, but extremely interesting
and about as near to the actual
front as civilians can get.
During the summer loads OF
young high school and college
women home on vacation volun-
teered and did such a good job
and became so much interested in
the work that almost without a
single exception they have volun-
teered to come back during
Christmas vacation. However, this
does not solve the problem of
getting volunteers right now
volunteers to fill the gaps left by
those returning to college and
high school girls.
Mrs. Austin, herself a Navy
wife, feels that there must be a
great many young Navy or Army
or Marine wives like herself, with
small households to run and some
spare time for war work who
should welcome this opportunity
to serve their country in such an
important way. She loves the
work, she told us, and she is a
shining example of the type
women the AAV can use. Intelli-
gent, efficient and quiet spoken
her very manner is reasalring of
calm security in the face of dan
ger. Yon know to talk to Mrs.
Austin, that she would never lose
her head. That she would do
whatever job she had and do it
we'll.
The Austins have lived in
Washington for about a year,
when Mr.. Austin was made a
lieutenant q. g. in the Navy.
Before that he was instructor Of
music at Harvard University.
Mrs. Austin is graduate of Rad
cliffe College and before her mar
riage taught music at small
country day school outside of
Cambridge. Both she and her
husband play the piano and sing
he plays extremely well, says
his wife, who claims she plays
only fairly" well. !. Friends
say differently. Both keep their
love Of music alive by getting to-
gether with other music loving
friends every Thursday evening
for group singing.

both man and wife wear wedding
ring on the third finger of their

Council Of Sociay Agencies made
precise plans for the coming en-
Urgency, and last summer engag-
ed a criminologist to study their
work to date. AS a result Of this
planning and study, Hartford has

no single agency in itself can pre-
vent delinquency; that once a
family is broken up $50. a poten-
tial delinquency case has been
created; that punishment does not
straighten out kids; that they
must be given exciting substitutes
for the thrills they find in gangs
and dangerous pray, that delin.
quency among Negroes does not
exceed their ratio to the popula-
ton and Is, in fact, less than
among whites"
