To get in the running for a
responsible, managerial type
of position, a woman should
seek an industry or company
willing to accept and recog-
nize the contributions of
capable women.
She should prepare herself
also for any opportunities for
advancement by obtaining a
good educational background,
keeping abreast of the latest
developments in her field, and
through good work habits"
These were some of the tips
offered Saturday in a talk on

woman who rose to one of the

One Of the top Democrats irl

It's intended to improve the

program, In order to pave the
way for additional amounts OF
