WAVES yesterday by Vice Admiral
Ross T. McIntire, Surgeon General
of the Navy, in an informal talk be-
fore members of the Dorothy Han
cock Chapter, OAR, at the Chapter
House on Massachusetts, avenue.
The admiral commended the
work done in naval hospitals by
WAVES and expressed deep regret
that there was no legislation pro-
viding for retention of WAVES in
the postwar period.
MY experience with WAVE Of
ncers and enlisted personnel couldn't
be more satisfactory" he declared
The WAVE technicians particular
ly have made themselves fireplace
able and women have demonstrated
definitely they have a place in the
Navy. Wherever we placed these
girls. they did bangup job and I
hope it will be made possible to keep
WAVES in the Medical Corps"
The admiral told of the need for
WAVES to work with the Nayv's
rehabilitation program, especially in
occupational therapy. In this work.
he commented, these women are
outstanding"
Warm praise also was bestowed
on the Navy's medical corpsmen
who. the speaker declared, ARE a
fine quality of boys who have done
a great job"
He described the work done by
hospital corpsmen, citing individual
cases of heroism where almost su-
perhuman achievements saved lives
OF countless officers and men. Re-
alization that the medical corps was
so well equipped and efficient gave
added courage to men at the front,
he asserted. He quoted a Marine
as having said We knew our
chances of coming back were pretty
good"
The Surgeon General spoke of
the rehabilitation work among
wounded servicemen, remarking that

Soon the selec- tions highlighted players from prac- tica1ly all corners of the country. You could almost hear the countingroom executives believing: "Why can't we plot it so that ALL sections of the nation get in on this?"
 Shortly thereafter the deathless se- 1ections were hobb1ed by fat list of honorable mentions. Just coincidence, likely, that the names indicated spaces where magazine sales resistance was stiff. Anyhow, Camps commercial touchdown incubated the. epidemic of All-America picking which is yours in a few weeks-and you can take it.

 How does New York football smartie know, definitely, that Larry Linebuck on the west coast is more pulverizing back than Cal Catfish of Mississippi State? A good question He doesn't. And Linebuck better than the few guys he's seen? Who knows? He doesn't.

 THE practice of many large U. s. corporations of charging peacetime strike losses against special war reserves was condemned this week by the American Institute of Accountants. Especially preva- lent in the steel industry this year, the practice of charging strike losses against war reserves has made it possible for some firms to show a profit for the first quarter where otherwise a deficit would have resulted. Among the com- panies using the device are U. s. Steel. General Electric, Bethlehem Steel, Republic Steel, Jones X Laughlin and Blaw-Knox.

SENIORITY!

Easing his claim on seniority ac- cumulated while in the service, a vet eran claimed that he should have been given job as a foreman. Court held that since the employer had always used the yardstick of "best qualified employe" with seniority coming into play only when two equally qualified employees were involved, the veteran was not entitled to a foreman's job.
