Woman Doctor Checks Sailors
New York—(U.R.)-Dr. Patricia Pear put aside her stethoscope, closed the door on a line of apprehensive young men in uniform, and sat down to talk about being a woman doctor in the navy.
"There aren't very many of us in the whole navy, and just two here at the St. Alban's Naval Hospital," she said. Her own navy blue uniform carries the bars of lieutenant, though on duty she was wearing the gray and white striped seersucker dress issued as a summer uniform and a doctor's white coat
"I enlisted in the navy while I was an intern, partly because the money helped me through the year of internship, and partly because I wanted to do something different," said Dr. Pear, who is just 28 years old.
Most of her time is spent in the children's division of the naval hospital, since her special interest is pediatrics. But one day a month she reports to the admission room as junior officer of the day. That's when she checks over navy men, either reporting again for active
"They see me and ask where the doctor is," she laughed good-naturedly. "Then when they find out I'm the doctor they get a very nervous look."
duty, or coming for a regular physical checkup.
Dr. Pear, who is a Chinese-American, born and brought up in San Francisco, shares an apartment with the hospital's other woman Dr. Sara Jean Parks.
So far no male patient has fled when Dr. Pear turned her stethoscope in his direction, though she admits a few have looked ready to bolt for the nearest exit.
"We don't see much of each other outside the hospital, because we never seem to be off the same times," Dr. Pear said. She works five and one-half days a week, and is on call every other night.
Gown Designer Finds Women's Fashions Result Of Modern Mechanical Inventions
New York,—(U.P.)—Unglamorous as it sounds, at least one famous designer is convinced that mechanical marvels, not streamlined silhouettes, are responsible for today's fashions.
Modern inventions, says Adrian, who has been dreaming up women's clothes for 20 years, are the reason for short skirts, trim suits, lightweight fabrics, and glamorous hostess gowns. Furthermore, he's still sticking by his statement that women will be wearing essentially the same kind of clothes 50 years from now that they are today. Here's how he explained it:
"Airplane travel means light weight clothes and trim suits. Most women know how to drive a car today, and they want to wear things that won't get caught in the clutches. That's why the new look wasn't successful."
Short evening dresses, the way Adrian reasons, can even be credited to traffic, not male appreciation of female legs.
Let the girls wear their clothes about 15 inches from the floor, with enough shoulder padding so "they don't look like wet spiders," and after that, Adrian said, they should just buy clothes they like and hang on to them.
"It's harder to get taxis these days because of increased traffic so short formals are more practical," he explained.
The jet and atomic age, he believes, won't call for any radically different warrobes. "Women," he said, "couldn't be much more active than they are today."
