C. in Amer= ican colleges have “no pificial stand. ing.” = The ruling was handed down after coeds at Indiana university had organized their own counterpart of the Reserve, Officers Training corps for men students. The Indiana girls planned to call their organization the WATC— Women’s Auxliary Training corps. Its intended purpose was to prepare them for officers’ commissions in the WAAC. The coeds had even selected their uniforms. Maj. J. Noel Macy, associate director of the WAAC’s, said that Director Oveta Culp Hobby had “no plans along that line.” . “The WATC,” he said, “has no official standing. All future officers in the WAAC will be taken from the rankg. No women will be come missioned except from the ranks, as the R. O. T. C. college men are commissioned in the army. “The only way these college girls can train for the WAAC is by enlisting.”
