Repairmen Busy
On WWC Campus
With the decoration of the stu­dent
l o u n g e c o m p l e t e , G. W.
S i n r r r y T c u s t o d i a n of WWCE
buildings, directs his maintenance
crew to other parts of the campus.
• Now superstitious students, shy
from step-ladders on the library stairs
while sheet-metal men replace cop­per
trays upon the wiridow ledges.
These copper trays are to prevent
the rain from entering and so help
keep the library books dry.
P a i n t e r s busy themselves. by
popping out from the third story
'windows of the Administration
building to repaint the window-sashes.
Aptness for this daring
feat was gained by painting the
Campus school windows earlier in
the summer.
On the ground' floor of the Ad­ministration
building several groups
of men work toward a new dressing-room,
showers, and lockers for the
junior high school physical educa­tion.
Separate contracts were bid
for the carpentering, filling, and
plumbing operations, and this main­tenance
work progresses rapidly.
The shower rooms will be tiled and
ready for the opening of school,
September 16.

club will continue to hold forums

relations/who plans to be here in
the fall is welcome to attend the
meetings and become a member.

summer session. The librarians like all other people on th campus will take a well deserved rest.
Navy Outlines
V-6 Program
Probably of interest to many ex-sailors
on the WWC campus is'the
new navy reserve program recently
initiated. Anyone interested in the
following program can find out more
details by seeing Commander W.
Bauer, USNR, whose office is in the
city hall.
"1. You wiil riot be required to
take part in any training program
or to'make any cruise.
:2. You retain the rating you held,
at- the time you were discharged.
You have earned it. The navy wants
to see you keep it. In fact, if you
desire, you may advance in rating
even though you are in an inactive
status.
3. You receive each month, with­out
cost to you, a copy of "The Nav­al
Reservist". This is an official
publication of the Navy Department
dealing with reserve matters. Keep
posted on the latest information.
4. Your inactive duty counts for
longevity purposes. In other words,
should it ever be necessary to recall
you to active duty you will receive
an additional 5 percent of your base
p*ay fdr each 3 years of service,: active
and inactive.
5. You are exempt from the draft.
You are probably saying to your­self
"What's the catch?" There is
none. The navy simply desires an
adequate reserve to back up the
regular navy. What better way to
have it than to have a group of
experienced fellows, like yourself,
available for an emergency.
This brings up another matter. A
federal law makes it impossible for
reservists to be ordered to active
duty of any kind, except in the case
of a national emergency declared
by the President, without the writ­ten
request of the man concerned.
You may have heard of' training
cruises and weekly drill periods for
which pay is given as being part of
the Naval Reserve program. These
are only for the organized reserve,
membership in which is entirely
voluntary and can be terminated
whenever the individual, member
desires.
Enlistment procedures have been
streamlined. No physical examina­tion
is required. The paper work
takes only about half an hour. You
Vacation Jobs Are
To Be Available*
With the long break between
summer and fall terms coming up^
soon, a great many of the student
veterans at WWC are looking for­ward
to vacation jobs and a chance
to enlarge their sadly depleted bank
rolls.
Veterans in search of full time
work have been advised by Dr. Alan
Ross to see George Flockoi, veter­ans
employment -representative, of
the United States employment ser­vice.
Mr. Flockoi has rendered in­valuable
assistance in finding em­ployment
for college veterans, by
phoning in to the college both full
and part time job opportunities as
they come up. A careful check at
his office finds a number of prob­able
positions awaiting the Gl stu­dent
through the coming vacation
period.
Construction work, excavating and
rough carpentering head the list.
The city of Bellingham often has
work in the s t r e e t department,
while a number of the stores should
employ salesmen full time* during
summer vacation. During the win­ter
months these establishments
will provide part time employment.
Commercial fishing will take care
of one or two men only, but with
the salmon pack arriving here from
Alaska, many longshoring jobs will
then be available. Cannery and farm
work as always will be plentiful.
At the college W. C. Ensign, cus­todian
of buildings, will keep a num­ber
of men busy shining up the
college for the fall openings. Vet­erans
are urged to watch their col­lege
bulletin board for work oppor­tunities
which often show up there,
and to keep in close contact with
the United States employment ser­vice.
'
may stop in at either of the follow­ing
places:
Navy Recruiting Sub-Station, Post
Office Building, Bellingham, or Nav­al
Reserve Office, City Hall, Belling­ham.
f
For the convenience of you who
cannot come in during the day, the
Naval Reserve Office in the Belling­ham
City Hall is open evenings from
6:00 to 8:00 p|. m. on Monday, Wed­nesday,
and Friday of each week.
Entrance is through the police sta­tion.
Enrollment To
Be Bigger
According to the information re­ceived
from the office of the Reg­istrar,
some important points must
be taken into consideration before
students will be accepted in Western
Washington College of Education
this fall quarter.
The facors involved are:
1. Service in the armed forces.
2. Residence in the States of
Washington or Alaska.
3. Course of study chosen.
4. Date of application.
Western Washington College of
Education is a professional school
primarily for training of elemen­tary
and junior high school teachers.
In view of the serious teacher short­age
in the state, the College will
admit without delay all qualified
applicants who enter the profession­al
teacher training course. Appli­cations
of all others will be reviewed
for final consideration on August
15, 1946. Classification will be ap­proved
in the following order up to
the limit of the number which can
be accommodated in specific courses
of study:
1. Veterans formerly enrolled in
College who have not attended an­other
college • or university since
discharge.
2. Other veterans from State of
Washington or Alaska.
3. Non-veteran students from tne
State of Washington or Alaska.
4. Non-resident veterans.
5. Non-resident students.
Those to be admitted will be
notified.
The College will do everything
possible to accommodate "students
who seek admission. It would be
unwarranted, however, to encourage
attendance beyond the housing ac­commodations
or classroom capacity.
It is therefore necessary to estab­lish
a definite policy and procedure
to insure orderly enrollment and
adequate educational opportunity to
those admitted.

Facilities Approved
Cooking facilities have been ap­proved
for the zero units by Aubrey
Davis, Management Division, FPHA.
The furniture will consist of the fol­lowing
articles: a cook stove and
hot water tank, two box-spring beds
on legs without linen—they a re
slightly larger than a GI. bed—a
chest of drawers, a mirror, a dinette
table with two dinette chairs, two
occasional chairs, and an ice box.
The units will be managed by a
student manager. Instead of the
covered cement floors used at Se-home
Place, there will be wooden
floors.
Last Assembly Good
An especially fine assembly Tues­day
marked the end of the summer
session assemblies. The Rev. Carl
C a l h o u n of the Congregational
church of Bellingham, who is also a
member of the school board, was
speaker. His talk was interesting
and very enjoyable. Special music
was furnished for the occasion.
