ACP's Jay Richter Reports from Washington
Washington—(ACP)—The weatherman is likely to be a weatherwoman for the duration. Civil Service is looking for college women to fill vacancies at weather stations west of the Mississippi.
If you're interested, go to the weather station where you would like a job and ask for blanks. (Incidentally, some stations are still averse to hiring women—which is something you may want to know in advance.)
--was poised, yet unsophisticated, with something of the coquette in her.
At least two years of college work is required, with emphasis on mathematics and physics. The salary is $135 a month-$120 or $105 if you are willing to take less. You'll have to take a written examination.
Reports filtering into the Capital from "the field" indicate that farmers generally are reacting favorably to the student farm-work plan of McNutt's Manpower Commission. The newly-created Commission is going to enlist college and high school students to work on farms in areas where shortage of help threatens.
Of course, the Department of Agriculture here had already advised its field personnel to use students. And many students and farmers have been planning ahead of any Washington agency. For example, in Eastern truck gardening areas students and farmers have been working together more than two months.
The Manpower Commission will obtain students through Employment Service offices.

A TRIPLE PLAY
Miss Glenn Charms Hill
'Most Hospitable'
"Is That True?"
Miss Carroll Glenn, attractive and vivacious violin virtuoso who gave the last number of the current University Concert series in Hoch auditorium last night, was besieged after the concert by a swarm of admirers who wanted to talk to her, get her autograph, or merely look at her.
A southern beauty with a piquant face and a nose that wrinkles when she talks, Miss Glenn punctuated her remarks to backstage visitors with a soft southern "Is that true?" She
She told reporters that she practices from four to six hours a day, except when on tour. "When you're on tour you just practice when and where you can," she said.
Loves Her Music
Miss Glenn said she moved from South Carolina to New York City when she was 11 and started studying the violin in the Julliard School of Music at the same time. About an ultimate goal in her playing, Miss Glenn is uncertain. "As far as I know now, I just want to keep on playing. I just love it." She also loves all composers and compositions, can't think of a one she considers a favorite—they're all wonderful.
For hobbies, Miss Glenn chooses swimming and taking it easy after tours. Last night's concert was the last recital of the season with piano accompaniment. From Lawrence she is going to Ann Arbor, Mich., where she will play with orchestral accompaniment, and again will meet Helen Traubel, the dramatic soprano artist who sang in Hoch auditorium Tuesday night.
There is a shortage of violin students now, the 22-year-old artist asserted. And although maybe she's prejudiced in favor of her instrument, she thinks there's nothing like it. However, she wants to warn students that the first two years of practicing violin do not reward you, but after that it becomes more and more satisfying.
"I want to say that this is the most hospitable University I've ever been in. Everyone's been so sweet to me, I just don't know how to thank everyone," she concluded her interview. She had been entertained at a luncheon in the Hotel Elrdidge given by Miss Ruth Vandenberg of the School of Fine Arts office and fine arts students, and a party after the concert.
