NINTH NAVAL DI ST R c T HEADQUARTERS, GREAT LAKE, Ill-Horace O. Adams, Jr., son of MT and Mrs H. O. Adams of Juneau was commissioned an Ensign in the U. s. Naval Reserve when he gradu- ated recently from the Naval Reserve Midshipmen's School at Abbott Hall, Northwestern University, Chicago, Illinois.
 His completed four-month course consisted of instruction in naviga- ton, seamanship. damage control, communications, ordnance and gum nery, in addition to which he un- derwent a strenuous physical condi- tioning program and numerous drills designed to develop initiative and leadership.

takes some of the telephone calls which go direct to the president.
 Speech copying also is a special assignment for Miss Conway. She has worked on the presidents majoy addresses, three to date. First, the one before the joint ses- sion of Congress, and the other two radio messages, for the boys over seas and for San Francisco. On Capitol Hill, Miss Conway got one of the very precious seats in the gallery to hear her boss make his debut as the new chief executive. The enthusiastic remarks she picked up here and there were most pleasing.
 For the past 1os years, before coming to Washington, Miss Con- way was employed by the Federal Housing Agency in Kansas City. J. Vivian Truman, the presidents brother, is the assistant director and it was probably through hin that Miss Conways efficiency came to the attention of the then vice president.
 Finally she agreed to leave home and come to Washington. She had not been here month before the lightning struck and sent her to the White House.
 President Truman turned over his own private secretary, Miss Reathel Odum of Benton, III, to Mrs. Truman. and Miss Conway stepped into the vavancy. Just re- gently, she received her permanent assignment as administrative as- sistant.

the night before, and if it was any good.
 Miss Conway simply smiled sweetly and said she had enjoyed it. She gave no hint that she had la bored over the manuscript for sev- eral days and then had sat in the immediate audience at the White House. while President Truman ad- dressed the San Francisco confer ence by radio.
 Miss Conway makes it point to arrive at the office before the boss, and anybody around the White House will tell you that he's very much of an early bird himself. She runs through the mail and stacks it on his desk in the order of im- portance. Often, she says, the presi- dent cannot get to the bottom be- fore he must start dictating.
 Uses Stenographic Machine
 She takes her place beside his desk in the famous oval room, ready to take notes with her steno- graph machine. No oldfashioned shorthand for this efficiency expert.
 President Truman's rapid-fire rate of speech may worry his radio coach, but there are no complaints from the little lady who takes his dictation. Her fingers literally fly over the keyboard, and before long she has enough letters to last all day.
 Of course, she has variety of other duties to keep the presidents $ office running like clock works An official schedule of his appoint ments rests on her desk and she

MEET MISS CONWAY FROMM MISSOURI PRESIDENTIAL PRIVATE SECRETARY
By MAlvINA STEPHENSON Central Press Correspondent

WASHINGTON-"Take letter Miss Conway"
 It is the president of the United States, and he is speaking to his new private secretary.
 Miss Rose Conway, who came to Washington from Kansas City less than three months ago, has ac- quired the rather impressive title of administrative assistant in the executive office of the president. The job adds up, however, to pri- vate secretary.
 A shy, reserved woman, known affectionately as 'zipper-lip" to her associates, Miss Conway always made it a practice to keep office business strictly within the office. Now that the hush-hush state se- crets pass across her desk, Uncle Sam can thank his lucky stars for such discretion.
 Miss Conway did secretarial work in Kansas City for more than 15 years, but she is a newcomer to the national scene. In time, her name probably will become as fa- maliar as the late Miss Marguerite (Missy) LeHand Ga ship recently was named for her) and Grace Fully. Both served President Roose- vet.
 Miss Conway has the same gen. eral duties and occupies the same desk just vacated by Miss Fully. Just a casual glimpse, however, in- dicates there's an entirely new per sonality on the job.
 Compared with the tall, middle aged Miss Fully, Miss Conway is a slight, youthful woman. with only a touch of gray in her blond, up- swept bobbed hair. She has thin, fine features and wise little look in her hazel-colored eyes.
 In the evenings, when she does not have to work late, she can shed her rimless glasses and her strict ly business manner, and enter into the spirit of the party Most of her time now is taken by visiting Mis- souri friends.
 The home folk really descended on the capital, now that their favorite son is in the White House.
 A heavy working schedule limits Miss Conways outside activity. Add to that the midnight headline for entertaining dates at the gov ernment girls hotel where she lives. The rope goes up on the par Tor at 12 midnight sharp, and the forbidden territory is lightly chris tened mo mans land"
 Miss Conway arises every day at 6:30 a. m. She grabs cup of coffee in the hotel restaurant and then gets in line for the bus at the load ing stand across the> street. Yes, this little lady, who soon will be rubbing elbows with the great and near great, is jostled on the bus by S1,440-a-year clerks and earl y shoppers.
 Talk about the president and his official family is a favorite pastime among most any group in the capi- tal and Miss Conway often hears interesting remarks. One time a woman on the bus asked her if she had heard the presidents speech
