Navy Offers Women Jobs
Capt. W. R. Terrell, professor of naval science, announced recently that he has been authorized by the chief of naval personnel to enroll senior women, who are majoring in business or economics, as naval science students in naval science courses 57 and 58.
Upon completion of these courses and receiving a degree, the women will be eligible for reserve commissions as W.A.V.E. ensigns in the supply corps in the United States Navy.
Duty assignments will include duty at various shore stations, both in the United States and in foreign countries. The women who obtain reserve commissions may apply for active duty and if ordered to such duty, they will receive full pay and allowances paid regular W.A.V.E. officers.
often.
Captain Terrell said that this career offers women an opportunity for interesting duty, travel, and a pay scale seldom found in civilian occupations. He added that the only drawback from the navy's viewpoint was that the women's career in the navy was of short duration due to the fact that most of the girls marry after only one or two years of duty.
Women students who will be seniors next year are requested to see Lt. Condr. W. A. Mann, assistant professor of naval science, in 119, Military Science building for further details.

Colors Have Psychological Effect On Everybody, Mrs. Doris Wilcox Says
Color affects us more than we realize. Mrs. Doris Wilcox, instructor in home economics, said in her talk on "Color in Our Lives" before the American Association of University Women.
Various colors have different psychological meanings. The reasons probably go back to the beginning of civilization, she said.
Primitive man associated red with sun, fire, and blood. It came to mean danger and today is used for stop lights and fire trucks. Green, identified with grass and trees, has a pleasant meaning and is the color which causes the most normal reactions in persons, Mrs. Wilcox said.
The results of a nation wide poll show that blue is the favorite color, but that violet is frequently disliked, and that many people like red while the near red colors, such as orange, are unpopular.
Mrs. Wilcox pointed out that colors are used for their affects. Yellow is used for signs, candy wrappers, and children's toys because it is the easiest color to see. Home decorators use pale colors, such as blue-green, to make a room seem larger. Warm colors, such
