Twenty-eight per cent of the Anti

doctor of philosophy degree. Others are
accountants, buyers, entomologists, inte-

CORY are housewives.
Many have full-time jobs and yet
serve on the eight-hour night shift

have children. Volunteers range in age

of plotting the course of aircraft is vital
to every man, woman and child in
Washington. The community owes these
women a debt of thanks. Through them
this service is maintained around the

alert and serve regularly and faithfully.
I can testify that they fill the bill"
How Volunteers Serve.
Most of the volunteers serve on four
hour shifts every third day. Exceptions
are those on the 11-pm -to-7-a m. shifts
and some administrative volunteers
Mrs. Stone, as an example, remains on
duty five days week from 8 am. to
5 pm. A shift totals from II to 26
workers. The large night shift is main
tanned so that all the members can
have a four-hour rest period. Sixteen
cots are provided in the building Other
facilities are a canteen, shower baths
and lounge.
