The meeting grew out of a pro-

existing regulations be changed te

made last month by Local 224 of the

Recreation Reveals Human Side
Of Georgetown Student Nurses
By Thomos 6. Buchonon

The Florence Nightingale of 1947
Is not the icy goddess you've seen
on wartime nurse recruiting posters.
A visit to Georgetown University
Hospital, where 23 student nurses
will mark the completion OF six
months training tomorrow after
noon with the traditional Gaping
ceremony, reveals that modern
angels Of mercy" have their human
side.
At Georgetown, as m other hos
pitfalls, there isn't much spare time
during the week for the student
nurse in her first six months of pre-
clinical training. The probes" (pro-
ebational Students, as the young
nurses call themselves, are occupied
with academic classes or study
periods from about am. to 4 pm
each day, and again from 7. to in
the evening. They have A hours
of study a week.
When not studying. they lounge in
their dormitory rooms, listen to the
radio or play ping pong in the dor
mitory clubroom. Sometimes they
gather around the piano for songs
an activity encouraged by. hospital
authorities, who take pride in a
student nurses glee club of 48 voices
that has given a number of public
performances.
Like any college coed, the student
nurse looks forward with enthusiasm
to the week end. The probes" are
off from Saturday noon to 10 pm.
Sunday. For many, dances at nearby
Georgetown University are the high
light of the week end.
Others, whose families live nearby,
are allowed to spend Saturday night
at home. Out-of- -towners, like Miss
Margaret Mummaw, who came all
the way from the Canal Zone to
attend the local nursing school, may
obtain special permission to visit
friends

To provide entertainment during
their off-duty hours, Georgetown's
149 student nurses have social
committee Of eight, with two dele
gates from each class. This commit
tee arranges student dances, teas
and other social functions.
Outdoor sports. are not available
in. the present, relatively cramped
hospital area, but arrangements are
made to share Georgetown Univer-
sity's tennis courts and many girls
go swimming or skating together in
the city's public pools and rinks.
The Georgetown program is fairly
representative Of those being carried
out in other local institutions for
the recreation of student nurses.
At Garfield Hospital, for example,
the girls have set. up their own
beauty parlor. At Gal1inger, Miss
Beatrice Ritter, director OF. nurses,
received an unexpectedly enthusi-
astic response when a poetry class
was organized. Emergency, Sibley,
Providence, Freedmen's and St.
Elizabeth's Hospitals have similar
programs.
A student nurse at Georgetown
pays 1925 for her first years tuition
$88 for the second year and SIS for
the third--a total Of 1863. Monthly
maintenance fees of $25 are re-
quired for the first six months, until
the nurse, through ward duty, can
earn her own maintenance.
Fees at other private nursing
schools range from 5000 to $400 fol-
three years. Gallinger, Freedmens
and st. Elizabeth's. which are public
institutions, pay allowances averag-
ing $3.50 for the three-year training
period, with various expenses de-
Quoted. After graduation, starting
pay at local hospitals is from $145
to $175 a month, depending on
whether full maintenance is pro-
vided.

DESIGNERS
CALLED 'FIENDISH'
They Make Women Unhap-
py, Men Poor, Society
Reporter Discloses
BY SARA

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Jan. o. W.H =
Fashion designers are fiendish
people. Their chief delight is in
making most OF the ome un-
happy most of the time and throw
ing husbands into bankruptcy.
-Shackled in their Seventh ave-
nue. designing chambers they have
been busily devising new ways to
torture O m e n and husbands
alike. The results are highly Sue
cessful. Every stitch of clothing
that was modish last spring will
be as up to- date as a T-model
Ford come Easter.
Remember those slim, hip-hug-
ging skirts the little woman wore
last spring? Well, forget 'em,
mister. This season they're wear
ing full swirling skirts - with
pleats. Pleats in front, pleats be-
hind, pleats all around. In wool
dresses and suits they're n inch
wide or more while in dressy
sheers they're tiny delicate &C
cordian pleats.
And what's more, unless Mi
lady's a. midget, she won't have
enough hem in last seasons skirts
to let them out the prescribed two
inches.
Give Them Away
Thumb through the closet and
take a gander at the jackets Of
last springs suits - exaggerated
Dolman sleeves and no collars.
Forget those too. Give them away.
Make dust clothes out of them.
This years things are just the op-
posite- somewhat marrow sleeves
and tremendous dandy like col
lars.
If there's a barebosom dress
hanging in the closet, it might
have possibilities-turn it around
and you're in style again. For this
spring the cantankerous clothes
designers are swathing women to
the neck in front and barring love-
ly Wll1tG 0dShSs
One of the chief pluggers for
the accordian pleated skirt is
Adele Simpson, who even whips
up a dainty peplum on a black
crepe sheer dress from these in
tricate pleats.
Maurice Rentner is the princi-
pal booster of the diversified collar
and revers He claims he was in
spired by the reign of George w
of England and has created an
entire collection Of suits on the
regency theme.
Hard On Purse
Typical of tn 'gentlemen's
suit" by Rentner is a navy wool
with three-quarter length cutaway
jacket. The collar and revers are
SO large they almost frame the
face-hattering, but hard on the
pocketbook.
Designer Ben Reig will take his
cocktail dresses wrapped tight to
the neckline this season ard cut
low in the back. One startling
model in sheer black crepe had
a full skirt with intricate drapery
and a nodded bodice. Demure in
deed until h wearer turns
around and S h W inches and
inches OF back.

/ DIR. jenkins said that becauea -
the difficulty in obtaining neces-
sary equipment it will probably be-
next fall before much field work
can be done on the laboratory
grounds proper.
Until adequate farm eouinment
has been obtained most Of the
work Will be done on farms in this
area in cooperation with local
vegetable and bulb growers.
Ihe personnel of the laboratory
Will, for the present, consist Of
Dr. jenkins, a clerk-technician, and
DAY labor as required. Later, as
the laboratory developes it's pro-
gram. plant pathologist. soil
technician. and possibly others
may be added to the staff to sur.
ply a growing need for agricultural
research and development in this
part OF the state.
Persons wishing to have SAMPLES
OF soil tested may now leave them
at the office of the laboratory. DR..
jenkins said that they will be
iumlgated and then forwarded to
the Soil Testing Division of the
state Department of Agriculture
fo~ testing.
Inc laboratory expects to work
ON practically any problems that
may arise in connection with the
production OF vegetable crops or
bulbs. Some of the first projects
Will include tests of new varietis 5
and the selection Of those best
adapted to local conditions: studio
and adaptation of methods of con.
trolling diseases that have caused
serious losses to growers in years
past; test Of new chemicals for the
stimulation OF plant growth and for
control OF weeds; and. the de-
velopment of more economical
methods of production by the use
of methods and materials that have
been worked out at other stations.
The Wilmington area has a
wonderful opportunity to develop
still further as a leading vegetable
and bulb producing section" said
Dr.. Jenkins" and the laboratory
hopes to play an important part
in this development by testing and
developing new methods and new
materials for the use of growers
in this part of North Carolina"

NeW PIER
 TO IMPROVE Al A 5 "A TRADE SERVICE

The Alaska Steamship Co. has just leased huge, war built Pier 42 on the Seattle waterfront and from now on all arrivals and departures of the Conpany's ships will be made from this terminal.
 This nerr step will make . marked improvement. for shipping service for Alaska and Alaskans and will eliminate a great deal of expensive stand by time of the past.
 - This huge pier which is l,Ol9 feet long and 396 ~ feet wide required more~iH than j. million feet. of lumber and 2 and one half miles of railroad track to complete.
 The new facilities will break up the old trucking bottlenecks of the past for it was espe- cially designed for cargo handling and is modern and streamlined for cas- fer delivery and faster and noFk'' deficient serv- ice.
