On the Trail Of Father's Tire Patches
By ROSEMARY REDDING If father finds his tire patching outfit missing from the family cer, he might ask mother about it. Could be that she’s doing a little patching herself these days. Could be. ts not inner tubes that she is having to “stretch” a.long way because of the rubber shortage but hot water bottles, rubber gloves and ice packs. She's just as concerned about keeping those items in repair as father is about his tires. A place that handles 2000 rubber gloves, a large number of water bottles and miles of rubber tubing during a month has first hand information to pass on to housewives. Such a place is the central supply room at Methodist hospital which arranges the tray “setups” to be used on various floors of the 500 to 600-bed institution. They do their work on a grand scale with special sterilizing and all that. Patched Bottles
Doubtless hospitals will not have to worry about getting replacements, like the housewife, but they're patriotically carrying on a conservation program just the. .same.. Some hot water bottles have as many as four patches on them. Rubber gloves are patched, too.
They are then not fit for use by physicians in their examinations
’| but some nurses and other aids can
use them as well as new ones, They do the job with a grater and
ried in a tool-kit. Oils, iodine, silver nitrate, etc. are injurious to rubber so the articleg are put through a bath of warm suds as soon as they come in the supply room. Tincture of soap is used. They are sterilized then in a steam bath, rinsed well (that’s important) and dried.
Powdered Gloves
Hot water bottles are blown up, corked and hung up. The filling with air is done to keep the sides of the bottle from coming together and sticking. In hot weather, this
is one of the most important precautions. They are then stored in
{a cool, dry place.
Rubber gloves, after drying, are put in an ingenious looking box full of powder where they are dusted
| thoroughly. At home, the housewife
can just dust her hands with talc. Mrs. Ellsworth Sunman heads the central supply room at Methodist. These timely tips for the housewife were volunteered by Miss Adele Foster in her absence.
In the college nook explaining the Butler curriculum to Miss Marilyn Richards (right), a prospective coed, is Miss Mary Janet Mummert, chairman of arrangements for the tea.

“What courses could I take to get the best basic training and a good general background in the shortest possible time?” one girl asked. “Can a student take a complete dietetics course at Butler?” another inquired, “What are the fields offering the greatest opportunities for career women today?” was the question of a third, _ These and a score of other queries should cause the professor to take heart this fall for it’s not a group of would-be “social butterflies” who will enroll in his classes, but. women “with a purpose.” . They'll be there
tion. She’s Foresighted
sighted from necessity. The war has made her realize that she must prepare for the future now. As one girl put it, “my father may have to leave for the army and I must be equipped to support myself.” Gone are the days of the student who waited until she was a junior to pick her major subject. Statistics at : Butler show that the coeds. of 1942 are pointing toward definite professions, for jobs after graduation are» uppermost in _ their minds. Elective courses, along with the required professional .courses, will provide them’ with a general knowledge.’ Four coeds entering Butler this fall plan to major in languages in order to pass the U. 8. civil service examination for the country’s diplomatic service. A number of students at the tga yesterday were interested in applying .for admission to the school of business and others asked about the pre-nursing schedule and courses for laboratory technicians. . Consider Demand
The freshmen this year are considering the question of where they are needed most in the professional world as well as what they wish to do. Although Butler offers several two-year pre-professional courses and an accelerated war program in which the student may receive her diploma in.three years, most of the guests yesterday were planning to take the regular four-year course, Assisting Miss Mummert at the
tea was Miss Wilma Gray. Host-

Today's Coed Starts to College With Plans for Career in Mind; ‘Social Butterflies’ Are Missing
By VIRGINIA HATFIELD War not only has affected clothing for the prospective university coed, but also has changed her general attitude toward college life. Judging from questions asked at the “priority preview” tea yesterday afternoon at Butler university, Miss Freshman this year has serious intentions and a sincere desire to work. Following a style show, presented by L. S. Ayres & Co. in Jordan hall recreation room, future coeds in informal groups directed their questions to Miss Mary Janet Mummert, tea chairman, and Miss Mary Helen Yates, promotion assistant and tea director at Butler,
esses included Miss Nancy Overstreet, chairman, and the Misses Joan Parr, Betty Lou Noffke and Carol Rogers. The master of ceremonies for the style show was Mrs. Lois Bolin and Miss Betty Wangelin served as cloth~s consultant.

Requirements
Times Special BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Aug. 14. —By ruling that college requirements for the fall class enrolling in the Indiana university School of Nursing be set aside, the school plans to accept at least 50 additional students. Enrollment is scheduled for Aug. 24 at the school, 1232 W. Michigan st., Indianapolis. In announcing the change, Herman B Wells, president of the university, said that the enlarged class had been decided upon “in line with the institution's policy of doing everything possible to further the war effort. We sincerely hope that high school graduates able to meet certain requirements will fill up the new places we have created in this freshman class.” Governor Henry F. -Schricker launded the program, asserting “many girls just out of high school are eager to do something in the war effort. Those who are qualified for nursing certainly can give their country no higher service than by preparing themselves for this - noble profession. The prospective shortage of nurses is a problem of grave concern.” :
New Requirements
scholastically in the upper levels of their classes are being sought for the class beginnnig this month, according to President Wells. Other requirements include attainment of the 18th birthday by Jan, 1, 1943, physical fitness: and proof that the applicant has not previously enrolled in any other school of nursing. “Student loan funds will be made available for girls who need this help,” President Wells said. Full gfenance is provided at the Nurses home. ' Students will receive training in the James Whitcomb’ Riley, Robert W. Long and William H. Coleman hospitals. Applications for the class, which will total more than 100 students when the new places are filled, will be received by Miss Cordelia Hoef=
| lin, director of the school. In-
quiries may be made by mail of

center: by. Aug. 22.
